Hello, I need ur help on how to get a job in UK (applying from Nigeria). I graduated last year with a nice grade but Naija has not been too funny in terms of securing a good job. My uncle told me the story of someone who applied to a UK company from Nigeria and he was employed with d company taking care of all travel expense. I also want to try this path but I really don't know what it takes to get a job in UK. if you have any useful information concerning this, please share.
God bless

To go that route you will need EXCEPTIONAL educational results that put you in the lead for the job.
No one is going to come looking for you. You will have to apply on line, ( and it must be a highly skilled job!)
You will need to show that you are the best person for the company and that it is worth investing all the time and money in your visa and transport.
Beware of THIEF agent that will promise you the world but just take your money.

I know hundreds of companies that "can" employ a Nigerian graduate.
YOU are the one that must search on line and respond to job vacancies.
There is no short cut or back door! (Only THIEF agent waiting to rob you.)

You say "Nigerian graduate", if you have a degree from a Nigerian school
then you will be competing against those from top UK. and USA. schools.
Be prepared to work very hard to impress them if you hope to succeed.

thanks boss...search begins

I think you need to have schooled in the UK to be considered for a graduate position. If you are experienced, then you may be able to find a sponsor.
