Just Choose one, and give me the other!

Take the Job now. Why? You havent even gotten your visa....shey na only admission you don secure?
Start working, then begin visa waka, if e pure then and only then do you have a choice to make.
Masters in canada does not mean automatic job, I gree. But the land is greener.
Your course of study was not mentioned so I cant assure you of the level of success on your career path in Canada.
But N180K is nothing compared to what you'll earn in Canada.
Quoting the guy who said Naija masters guys in Canada dey clean toilet....minimum wage is $12 per hour. Equals $1920 a month. Equivalent in Naira? Over N300k. Yes tax and all, but even after that, e still plenty pass N180K
In between, I'm in Canada. Did a Post Grad in Software Development. Working now. Any day and anytime, I'll advise the next man to come to Canada

Adortem:
O Lord,this is the kind of confusion I want in Jesus name!

engrrichie92:
why do you need masters...if it's to get well paid job..you already have! and you get more as you climb higher

except of course you wanna go into lecturing
but I tell you .
if I were YOU(HIM),I wish I was...I'd resume work asap
Now that we've given him the needed advice,tell him to come here and share how all these good things are happening to him alone
Nairalanders and Joblandersneed to know asap!!!

DarkFive:
Please Take the Masters for two reasons
1. Canada is a lucrative country looking for young professionals, if his smart he would get better offers there too.

2.Even If you take the job 5years , down the line you would start yearning for a masters degree,so now you stil have age on your side.

Go for it!! Don't short change yourself...Take the leap of faith

geobukky:

Since he has sponsor... if he can secure 180k job here.... he can do better in canada and nothing beats coming back from a developed economy with a MSc plus 3 years work experience... My opinion

haywhy2k4:

nigerians and masters and yet not one thing is manufactured in the country. you better get rid of your white man or is it black man mentality. i have been to canada and it is a land of hardship and coldness and high tax. you better take that job and remain in nigeria where you are a first class citizen. you have been warned. the other side is never greener. it looks greener but it is not

saxywale:

Minimum wage varies across Canada. It depends on the province.

phabulous88:
MSc degree is not work experience o! He better take the job and develop his professional experience. I know guys who have UK/US MSc degrees and still no job.

ttmacoy:
Canada is a country of hardship and Nigeria is a country of honey and gold right?

I don't get all this first class citizen stuff we always talk about. unless you are rich in Nigeria you are not a first class citizen at all.

There are people who make it Nigeria same as there are those who don't, and there are people who make it in Canada etc. same as those who don't.

The environment in Nigeria is suitable for some and isn't for others, same as the environment in Canada or US etc. is suitable for some, and not others e.g. yourself. Do what works for you and let others do what works for them.

agyo:


My most sincere advise to you is to go for your masters. Only if you know what i currently going thro for choosing work instead of masters back then.

Those that choose Masters are far ahead of me by comparison now (depend on which line of comparison you take).

Take the Masters. Work will always be there.
