Bros,

One big lesson I have learnt over the years, like in this case, is to keep to the FACTS of the case. Since he did not mention Oh-ha that Deeper-life people are bad, then you need not rewrite his story or meaning. It could be a contextual thing. For example, he could have done something else, that put off the supposed Deeper-life man(what if he wore earrings to the interview, and the interview finds it offensive, showing it in his reaction)? "Deeper-Life Member" could be the OPs contextual generalized term for someone looking pious and holy-ish......

When you grow up, you will understand something about life. Jumping into conclusions like this is beyond immature, it sparks a comprehension deficit.

carzola:
the key fact that should be paramount in judgement should be the op mentioning where he stays... absent that info we have to make do wit other factors like the deeperlife isssh. so my guy my judgement still stands. dont take this too personal and please watch your tone and choice of words.. lets keep this mature and decent and if u feel other wise the look for the closest motor park you would find your like mind smoking weed in a hided corner join them.

nerodenero:
I use this word polithiefcian a lot. I must have spammed your mentions countlessly . Pele o.

OK pardon my tone and choice of words.........

But 2 lessons for you
1. It's better you seek clarification from the OP on grey areas rather than hasty and faulty judgement.
2. The Deeper-lifish jugdement is a rape on basic intelligence

....but Bros, while I try to find the motor-park..., dont you think you missed some classes?

TalkDirect:
Let's bury the hatchet. If the OP leaves an interview with such a broken heart and only comes out to point at some 'deeper life man' while missing out on the real issues pertaining to the subject of his residence/ distance then it leaves me with much question as to whether the fellow is employable in the first place if squeezed thru the seive of personal responsibility. Nobody likes to employ candidates that can't take responsibility. Seeing things thru religious lenses when we should be asking ourselves where we've missed it remains a problem even at the National level. By the way, not every man in suits is a Deeper lifer.

Koolking:
The Interviewer might be doing you a huge favour, you could not see it. If the pay is not worth your distance from home vis-a-vis the office, it will be sheer evil to employ you. As desperate for a job as you are, trust me, at the long run your emotional state will affect the company's output.

My former employer would never employ you (no matter your qualification) for a N100k pay if your distance is not among the neigbors and borders of Ikeja.

Far areas like Sango Ota, Badagary, Ajah/Lekki, Apapa, Ayobo, Okokomaiko etc will not be shortlisted for interview unless the pay is from N150k. The company's office assistant was someone who lived in the neighborhood, who was ready to accept N30k.

There are some employers with human feelings. We may not see it, sometimes when employers reject us for a reason based on our locations.

Move on, it's not the end of life. It's all for good

You're right..but remember I've laid the assumption that the OP is a newbie and needs a lot of learning. If you check my reactions to the OP was more on the side of advice and not castigation. It is critical to note that the OP must have been taken by emotion when he wrote the piece and as such we should excuse some failings on what he left out or what he insinuated.

Nothing bad in simply asking him for clarifications

dominique:


You made sense but if that was the case, then he should never have been shortlisted in the first place if he put in his original address on his CV. There must have been something off-putting about his conduct at with the panel that made them not recommend him. Unfortunately he's pointing fingers at the wrong places.

TalkDirect:
I like your disposition in responding to matters. You sound matured and looks like you have values. I hope more people on NL will learn to be like you and not to fan the embers of war. Well done.

With heart and eyes filled of tears I write this and I want everyone to learn from my experience


I passed the bank's entry level test last year November, I wrote another test this year Feb, then I passed, scaled through the first interview and also the second interview which was a panel interview.

I then got called to come for a final one which was a chat with the group head.

From our conversation I knew I was going to have a problem with the man. I never knew he was a deeper life man. I was neatly dressed with nice hair cut. At the end of our conversation when he asked which area of lagos I stay and I told him, his countenance changed and told me 'you can go' without the conventional 'do you have any questions for us'

Few minutes ago, I got a message that I wasn't recommended after all what I sacrificed for this job. I will never forget this experience and I think I will always hate anyone that bears this man's name

Keyana:
