Good evening fellow nairalanders....... I finished my NYSC on 15th of October and fortunately for me, I got my offer letter last week. The total payoff after a month is 30k, I'm to resume on monday but some of my siblings advised me not to accept the offer because I am a second class upper student(B.SC) and I'm less than 24. Probably a better offer will come in because I'm still in the employment age cycle. Pls advice me on this cos I dont knw wen that better offer will come in and another believe I have is that half bread is better than none.

MissGdope:

SaiBuharii:


That's just about 100pounds abi...it's bad here, but not that bad. I guess it's just fear of the unknown.

tellwisdom:
So you want to work from Monday to Sunday everyday for a month and earn 30k...Guy, Buy okada dey ride

F22RAPTOR:

not a fool my dear, a lowlife. only a lowlife with an incredibly low self esteem will call himself or herself lucky because they got a N30K/$150 a month job...smh.
I weep for the Nigerian youth...#saynotomediocrity

F22RAPTOR:

how? How is he lucky? This is the reason why employers will continue riding on you. Why keep this mediocre mentality? Instead tell him to accept it and be on the look out for something better.

Bros if you are from a family where you eat comfortably and can still get stipends pls don't take the job. Rather use the opportunity to master job test . You will definitely get a trainee position witha good firm

will you feed him while he spends next three years looking for job

F22RAPTOR:

shhh...but why won't you read to understand?...what I was talking abt is doing away with that debasing mentality that he is lucky to get a job of 30k per month when he is worth more. yes, accept the job but be on the lookout for something better, don't relax there and feel comfortable. capisce?

comradee1248:
so u think say na 2.1 go give u work? Abi salary should be based on degree grade? U funny o serious, better remove that 2.1 mentality for uя head if not u will never get a job 2 do, beside academic qualification is not a way 2 test intelligence... Some pass degrees are far far better than some 1st class in the field. Better forget that 2.1 mentality and work, thousands of uя type can do that job for 20k if they see

Do not take it.
It's a waste of time, such jobs are a time and energy drainer.
I will advise you to look out for graduate trainee vacancies and if possible, take one or two professional courses while waiting.
Not every experience is good experience.

[b]bros drop this second class upper shit! It wount put food on your table in present day Nigeria. I know a lot of folks with crazy 2.1 still roaming the streets! Thank Goodness that you're still below 26yrs of Age. Atleast, coys like Access Bank, Pwc, Kpmg, Gsk, Uacn, Zenith Bank, Nbc etal, will surely invite you for aptitude Test hence you fall within their requirements. Key Requirements for this coys - (Bsc. 2.1 and 24-26 max, Nysc) even with my 4.23 Cgpa, age denied me acess from applying for job opening with these Great world class firms. Chief, no need to think about taking this offer or not, there's dignity in Labour. Grab this offer fast and build your work experience for Greater opportunity. That's the problem with most Freshers! Everybody wanna start with big coys with big pay with little or no experience. After Nysc, I wasted good 2yrs! Thinking I would get something better with my 2.1 but all to no avail. I had to settle with an 18k marketing job after much! Today, to the Glory of God, I earn Six figures as A sales Person. Take the advice of this honourable house bro! You have to start somewhere! Just as someone here rightly opine! You're lucky to get something immediately after passing out. Its a rare privilege especially at a time most firms are cutting down staff and laying workers off. Peace out Bro![/b]

Bros to be sincere the money is very low, but everything depend on u. What are looking for in life?, where do u want to be in next 2year both career n academic wise? Will this job help me in achieving my dreams, goals etc. I graduated with 2:2 after my NYSC I got a job of 40k just becos I know my mission on earth I accepted the offer and I also believe dat I will get better offer in less the 6months but unfortunately I ended up sending 1yr n 3months but at last I got anther job with over 200k and currently am doing my masters.

Answer those questions before accepting the offer if it will help u in life, then
Talk to the MD in person concerning the salary and hear what he or she will say.

Let just add these;
In life don't look desperate when looking for something eg job, life partner etc. Once dey notice hw desperate u are they will take advantage of you.

Build your boldness and confidence these are the keys that will keep u going in life.

patient and perseverance are another key of life Pls have dem.

Be honest and humble.

Above all always pray becos is not always by grade. Grade is just a criteria for selection and screening.
All the best in life.

Seems you have your head buried in the sands. Ride okada where? When almost all the states have banned it in the major roads.

Banned for where?....Na okada carry me reach house yesterday. The breeze wey dey blow me sef pass the A.C wey dey my house

mikolo80:
your fada shhhh
o o now you see how disrespectful it is
you're worth what the market says you're worth not what you think you're worth
has he invented anything in demand
what problem has he solved. why should he be paidmore than 30 K
how productive is the company he wants to work for abi na she'll offer am 30 K
even drivers are more useful to shell than the average philosophy or educational graduate
I repeat you're only worth what you can produce in the market
imagine a billionaire about to drown the illiterate ijaw swimmer is infinitely more valuable at that point in time than a PhD who has never owned a set of bathing trunks.
demand and supply determine your worth not how many years you wasted acquiring useless certifications, I should know
now I am acquiring useful skills and getting paid appropriatel
it is you that has the mediocre mindset thinking you are worth something when.... well it depends, how much are you being paid (let me guess you can't say In a public forum )talk about mediocrity and debasing mindset

ikubch:

Take it. Target the next 3 months for a better offer. Good for your CV as part of your experience. Good luck
