Hi everybody.
I just recently graduated I studied engineering and due for service. It scares me but I am confident I am going to get through it, I try to convince my self.
I would like to do my service in lagos, though I am not familiar with the city, truth being told I have never been there before, but in other to get ahead in my profession I think it will be best I go there.
My problem is, I would like to know any nice government institutions where an engineer can serve in lagos, I know there are many but considering am not from there, I would appreciate if you guys can help me out.
Thank you in anticipation and God bless.. Xoxo

since there is little or no guarantee that you will serve in Lagos, why this thread?

in the event that you do get posted to Lagos, i believe all corpers get to teach.

perhaps, if you can show us how you plan to scale the two hurdles above, you might get better responses.

which engineering did you study?

why are you not considering PHC and ABJ as well?

the school you finished from also determines how far they'll throw you, you know?

none. even if you end up in Abuja, you'll still get to serve tea all day.

you might want to target the private sector.

all the best !

That will be taken care by somebody, that's why I said I don't know. There's no guarantee with anything, but the chances are good.

Mechanical engineering. I don't think abuja has the kind of industry I would like to break into, its more of government, parastatals etc. I have been to ph before, but lagos is more like the epic center besides corpers teach only in ph 100%
I schooled in the north.

I didn't mean thoes kind of government institutions, more like the technical arm of government institutions. That's why I am not considering abuja, I don't want to switch careers and become a politician, I want to practic what I studied.
Can a corper be posted to private sector? I haven't heard of any lately, but if its possible then we're in play.

mechanical, mechanical, mechanical ..... hmmmmmn!

yeah, abuja might not be it ... and u dont like ph, so its back to lagos.

corpers teach 100% in lagos too o, so the best you can hope for is to use your spare time to develop yourself by acquiring skills.

youth service might not be the best time to "practice what you studied" and even it is, a government agency might not be the best place

no. but things happen, and people find their way around these things.

Sorry to burst your bubble.
You're likely to serve in a school, or local government.
NYSC has enforced the no-private-sector rule this year.

Thanks guys for your contribution..
What about NNPC? That's not private, is it?

You're highly unlikely to get posted to NNPC. Unless you have some really special intervention, you are very likely to get a school or Lagos State local government.

^^^
Nothing is impossible.. As long as NNPC is regarded as "government" and corpers are posted there. That's all the confirmation I need. Thanks,

I honestly don't know if corpers are still posted to government parastatals. Probably they are.

Thanks..
