Guys, plsi need your candid opinion on this. Just got a job as DSA in skye bank, and am to resume tonorrow, the salary base is 40k at ile oluji..Am still working in a beer ware house, where i earn approximately 18k..there was target attach to the DSA work; to open 30 account and to bring 5million naira every month. if am unable to meet the target, i will be ejected after the 3rd month...should i go for it or continue with my present job..
please its urgent!!

5 mil every month... Dem go give you gun... Abi e get person wey get huge money wey never get account...well i dont have much to say, but if you have friends thatcan be able to deposite some reasonable amount of money, then you can go for the job... Am sure you must not meet that 5mil per month(maybe 2.5/3 mil will do)... But if you dont have rich friends and you think you cant meet the target, then do what is neccessary. For me, i wont pick a job that will keep me tensive every time...

If u re gud @ Marketing,connected ,a risk-taker & u think d chances of u meeting ur target is up to 70- 80%,u can kiss ur present job goodbye but if not







SURU-LERE

First, I would say Congrats! A lot of people are looking for this same DSA Job. Staying in a beer warehouse guarantee comfort, but if you really want to see or taste the corporate side of life, I would advise you to leave immediately. Not sure the 5million target warrants a sack, its your dedication they would be looking out for. Stand out, be the best in terms of punctuality and service. Work hard and try to meet the 30accounts per month(at least achieve one). Experience counts in everything, including marketing. Na from Job them dey get Job. Cheers.

Plz who knws hw much stanbic ibtc bank pay thier marketers

My dear yours is better, i go thesame job as a DSA in an investment company and my target is 40million, guess what? I took the job, because i believe i can never know my potentials until am pushed, either ways the experience and exposure is something to me, my dear take the job and give it your best, if somebody has ever met the target then believe also u can make it. At least give it a trial

Hmmm DSA job. The most dreaded job in the Nigerian labour market. Now this is it. You'd have to evaluate. First u said u earn 18k monthly at ur present place of work. Is the 18k after expenses? Do u have to pay tfare to work? The 40k the bank would give u is not called salary cos that's the money they expect u to do all ur running around with. If u meet the target of 5m, u get a bonus, but don't depend on that. Calculate based on that 40k, at the end of the month, u may be left with just 20k after transport cos as a DSA you'd do a lot of running around. But then again, it gives u a different kind of experience, and adds as a boost to your cv. I've rejected two DSA jobs with two different banks and I have no regrets about it but I won't advice u to reject this one straight away. I'd rather say u should evaluate it, look at ur person, ask urself what u want, and look at the other opportunities u have or that re likely to come up, then make a decision. At the end of the day, lagos is not about how much u earn it's about how much u can save

Lol.. 5 million per month, from Ile Oluji??
Take this job at your peril.. who will give you 5 million in Ile oluji? If you were a lady, you might have a chance...

Don't fall victim of use and dump my advice for you is to leave the job and look for a better one. Do you think its easy to get 5million naira in a month. Even in Lagos where we have frustrating people here and there including scammers too.. Its not easy. You go work like say tomorrow no dey and you go still get competitors from other banks just for peanut.. How much is 40k as a salary. My guy the pay no worth the struggle. They want to exploit you run bro

you studied marketing in school, then why running away from it?

MarvellousGod: you studied marketing in school, then why running away from it?

Its because many pple don't understand the real concept of marketing even the so call HR, the function of DSA is not that of a marketer, but that of a sales person its saddens my @ when I see a responsibility of a sales person being matched to a marketer. Let me put some light Marketers are meant to inconjuction with the production mgr to design a product, and then sales pple do the selling with the guide of a marketer. Any product that is being developed through this process usually do well in the market because, because the first question we marketers ask our selfs is that. Do they need the product ? How do they need the product ? And why should I design the product this way ?

the 18k am earning s minus transport and feeding.,my boss gives me that seperately..so am actually banking 18k everymonth,expect i do my personal expenses on it....but the 40k to be offered me in the DSA work.,wilk have to secure accomodation and feeding myself

Manage the job you have Ayobami. Be diligent and focused an develop yourself.
God has not called you to be a slave (DSA).
You have a good boss where you are... Continue with it and streamline your application to the experience you currently have.
Ile Oluji in Ondo right? There are no more than two banks in Ondo itself... There is no market for corporations there so there is nothing to think about.
Even if it's not Ondo Abeg manage what you have.

Well I have an uncle who was DSA for FCMB, for two years he struggled... He was married and had two kids... He was diligent, walking up and down to meet his targets. He was made regional marketing manager within the space of those two years and why did this happen because he was diligent and focused but of course he had no other option. His motivation was family.

The answer to your question is what is your motivation for wanting to take the DSA job?
