Thank you. I'm not wishing myself ill luck, i'm just trying to weigh both options considering their advantages and disadvantages.


There is still time dear, pray and seek the face of God on it. More so, research on the two sides well and make ur projection and viability.then decide.

First and foremost, I want to thank seun for this platform.

I finished my NYSC July 2nd last year and ever since then i've been on a lookout.

Just early this week I got two job offers one with a startup company offering to pay 55K and another with a bank as an HR personnel and i'm been offer roughly 75k, but i'm confused on which of this two offers to go for.

Owing to the news of hire and fire in the banking industry, i'm really skeptical on resuming work on Monday, 4th of january.

Please, I need your advise. Thanks and God bless.

Bro, go ahead to grab the job with higher pay. After all you will not stay there for so long and you can be fired at anytime.

As you start any of the job also plan to stand on your own my brother.
No permanent job in this country!

The bank will be better. By the time you are confirmed your pay will balance more.

You better rush to the bank to resume on Monday before I use koboko on you. Business developement executive is a polished way of calling someone a marketer. Most firms know people are running away from any job that starts with "mark...". So,they've developed new polished job descriptions that makes it look like you have a very good job title/description. As a start up company,they'd require you to market for them and bring in clients. If you do not have a flair for marketing,don't bother resuming there.

Any of the job will be ideal but look at the prospect of growing a business such as the start-up company. The fulfillment is long term compared to banking job which is monotonous in nature.

BDO is the new name for marketing. HR is a very good and interesting profession where one can build a successful and fulfilling career. You are very lucky to get it without experience. As a HR person, everyone will be nice to u and wanna be your friend in the organisation. You'll have avenue to help, meet and manage a lot of pple especially working with a bank. Go for d HR job, register with cipm and go for your MBA (HR).

..go for the 75k...don't ask me why...
Re: I got two Job Offers, which should I choose? I'm Confused..... Advice Please!!!! by Mannylex(m): 11:52am On Jan 01, 2016
I would assume the 75k job is Zenith bank, as they pay fresh graduates that amount before conversion....

Banking is very stressful, but would go a long way in boosting your career. Working in the HR department is a very big plus, as it would shape your career professionally. Asides the fact that both salaries are nothing to write home about especially in a state like Lagos, working in a nameless company and earning 55k when you have a fairer option would be a terrible idea... Welcome to the regimented life of banking


Happy new year guys.

As much as I ll prefer u go for d company's job, a company just starting up doesn't have any Base yet n can go out of job asap.
I think d bank job has more security than d company's own.

Business development whatever is packaged name for marketers in most coys where renumeration nd promotion would be based on the crazy targets they'll be giving you, besides with a start up firm, a lot of patience is required for you to really start gaining much experience or stuffs for ursef,
But with the bank you're an hr personnel so definitely no ridiculous targets..nd also like others rightly said you'll get good training nd experience working with lotta smart experts..
Having said all...I strongly think u shd take the bank job

Can people like you get serious for once and actually offer concrete advice? The young man is sharing true fears about certain hire-fire policies in banks and not wishing himself ill luck. The people who have been hired and fired are no different from him and might as well have discharged their duties as dutifully as they could. Of course, there are people still working there, but does that nullify the truth that some people were also hired and fired?

Aint nothing wrong in his question, and I see no reason why you should think he's willing himself ill luck when he is merely attempting to process a fear.
You are wise, MathChick.
I always tell friends that REALISM - being brutally frank - is not PESSIMISM and blind OPTIMISM is pure FANTASY.
