All the responses I see here make me grateful for my line of job. My last major job was at Access bank where I resigned with a salary of about 114k. I indulged thereafter in many biznesses that didnt succeed until I started learning chinese. I never knew learning a language could pay so well. Now I am on a salary of 100k. The best part is I have options, other employers are trying to make me leave my employer on d promise of a higher pay so my employer knows my worth. I have never been asked for my cv, ability to speak d language is all I need. I dont like chinese pple per say but d ability to speak their language can put many plates of food on your table. Forget d course u read, I read Elect/Elect Engr but I have since switched to doing masters in Chinese language. If u are crying unemployment its ur fault, one year plus and u cn begin translating with a starting salary of 60k without cv.

I was tinkin of getin a litle job then go 4my second degree in mechanical (production) or beta still, met/mats (corrosion). Dunno yet.


Going for a second degree is cool. Am also thinking towards that direction too. I pray ajaokuta works because thats our only hope in this funny structure called Nigeria.

Exactly. That's what bothers me d most.
U can never see any advert stating metallurgy engineer but mechanical's.. Only mechanical wud always fit in as a corrosion and materials engrs, even welding supervisor too. I begin to wonder if they even knw abt Met/Mats in dis country.

The only thing I can remember about my present job is the amount I spent on transportation for the interview. I spent ₦72,000.00 for road and air trip from Warri to PH to ABJ for the interview and back to Warri. This was in November 2013

I was like God if I don't get this job, it won't be fair and I won't go for any long distance interview again. My GF then now wife even gave me 10k to add to my transportation money.

Anyways I got the job all thanks to God and resumed December 2013.

I love hearing stuffs like the bolded...a gf who stuck with you when you had nothing but only potentials and you not ditching her for a "better" chick because you have made it & feels she is below ur status...Thumbs up to both of u

Thanks for the compliment. I remember back then, my salary was just 90k. By the time task and pension is removed, it was 79 or 80k. And she stuck with me believing things will be good. I remember vividly how reluctant I was to go for the interview because of the distance but she encouraged me to go. Now I earn close to half a million monthly and we are both happy.

She is God's gift to me.

[b]I got My present Job as a result of Poverty cry cry. It really helped me identify the hidden talents in me. When hunger nack a hell out of you, You will know that looking for Juicy job is a waste of time. You can only get such Job in your dream cheesy

I was Jobless for 7 years after i graduate from University. With Good grade fa shocked shocked. But then, i had No direction, No hope, Nothing!! sad

i traveled through the nook and cranny of Nigeria in search of Job, but nothing to show for it sad

i was denied job in a new Generation bank because of my religion in the hay day of Boko haram back in 2009. The HR guy mr Basil told me point blank that that i look like Boko Haram shocked shocked

I browsed through Nairaland in 2011 and i saw a thread where linda ikeji bought 6million naira car or so. I sat myself down and studied the girl and her mode of blogging. I made google my daily companion and researched on blogging.

3 years later, Inshallah, I bought my own Big Car from Blogging too cheesy Thunder fire banking, NNPC, CBN,FIRS jobs, Im far more better than their Ogas there. (No bragging oOo wink )

Yes I own and run www.Vibenigeria.com It has over Half a million Followers on facebook and top 300 website in Nigeria according to alexa ranking smiley

P.S.

I dont even know how to code, but i designed it myself with lots of Youtube videos, PDF ebook downloads and more efforts

The bottom line is Try and study successful people, Dont try to be like them, just study them, redefine your own way and God will open the door
[/b] cool cool cool
