beyondwalls: There were probably better candidates. I understand it is very frustrating but never lose hope. Remember that you are not the only candidate fighting for this position. Don't forget to write a thank you letter and reiterate your interest in the job. Also mention what you hope to bring to the position. |

Aude: Thanks Aude for speaking in favor of these HR personnel but truth still remains I am confident about my capabilities and I have a very positive mindset. One of which is whoever I finally ACCEPT to be my employer will be at an advantage and to all those companies that have sent regret mails... it's their loss not mine. When it comes to recruitment in Nigeria the process can be altogether crazy and of course these recruiters who keep acting like they know it all and can read through the minds of prospective employees, how wrong they can be! No wonder, they recruit people with rehearsed lines and fake accent... lol. After one month, they will still return here to lament. I'll keep watching, I understand no one will be unemployed for life so very soon I will also be recruiting others, chikina! Life na turn by turn. 2 Likes 1 Share |

It's a pity that we are classified as unemployable, half baked, unintelligent..... I wount blame them it's due to our economy, A country where companies are looking for cheaper labour. Has anyone ever think, why students are craving for civil service jobs either Federal or State reason being they are paid minimum wage compared to Banks that pay N40k for graduates all in the name of contract staffs. All HR personnels are saints looking for angels....... |

amicable09: There's a saying that if you can't beat them you should join them (paraphrased). You have noticed that people with rehearsed lines seem to be getting the jobs, so why don't you rehearse those same lines? Trust me these recruiters have heard all those rehearsed lines but as typical human beings they like being flattered. It shows you very much want the job. I used to have your same mindset and kept on wondering why I wasn't hired although I had a lot to offer. A lovely Nigerian recruiter critiqued my interviewing skills and I took on board everything she said. I am not Nigerian. Not long after our conversation I went for two interviews and I got offered both jobs. I am currently in the position that I felt was a better fit and obviously paid better. That is why I suggested that you have someone critique your interviewing skills. I also hope that the day you become a hiring manager you remember to choose the person with great potential, not the one who is just regurgitating what they have read online. I wish you all the best in your job search. |

Re: Pains Of A Recruiter / HR Mgr by Gold45(f): 7:53pm On Oct 30, 2015 |
amicable09: Lol Sorry about your nasty experience. Let me apologize on behalf of those Recruiters. Believe me, some applicants can frustrate a saint. it may just be a case of transfer of anger. Then, some of these so called HR Mgrs got their jobs through connections. Many were not trained for it so lack the interpersonal skills needed. Then, I personally screen and rate candidates mentally and psychologically so you may wonder why my questions are off point. It may just be your response I need not even your answer. Some HR Mgrs feel they need to keep the hostile font to avoid candidates bugging them or taking them for a ride. Sadly, some feel they are doing applicants a favour. From your tone, you dont like being bossed around and may have issues with being subordinate. Why apply for a job, why not get yourself together, look inward and become your own boss? You never know where your "star" lies |

Gold45: lol... I laugh . Thanks jare but I have my plans and no, I love being a subordinate because I love to learn and take corrections too. This phase of my life requires I stay under someone, I'm not in a hurry to jump out and start off without proper coaching hence, my search for paid employment. 1 Like |

Bennyzino: Bros, I'm pointing out to you what should be the in key competencies section of a CCNA holder. You also mentioned 'networking' as a technical skill. What is that? Recruiters work with key words from the job spec. Do you honestly expect a recruiter to know or care what 'networking' entails? I've said what I need to say. It's up to you to take the advice or not. |
Re: Pains Of A Recruiter / HR Mgr by Gold45(f): 8:17pm On Oct 30, 2015 |
sihom: 1. The expatriates stand out because once you see a foreign university listed in the CV, it is automatically assumed they have a better and higher education regardless of their GPA 2. In addition to my first answer, some employers see it as a boost to the face of the company for customers to walk in to your company ans see expatriates. It is believed your rating / respect will soar. 3. In terms of physical abilities, Nigerians beat other countries IMHO, mentally, I'd say that if the expatriates outshine our Naija grads, its cus they had a better education, all things being equal, Naija grads are a better option. I don't also believe Nigerian grads are unemployable, please don't misunderstand me, I simply refer to them as crude. They still need alot of polishing. Once that is done, you'll smile from ear to ear. |
