let me first of all start by wishing all nairalanders a happy and prosperous 2016 and May God grant u all ur heart desires IJN amen.
Now to the point. I am a graduate of Banking and Finance, finished with a 3.30 CGPA(My Project Supervisor use to say I was unlucky) but this is a story for another day.
I am currently serving, of which I will b rounding up in April. I have been thinking on possible career paths to follow and to add more strength and tenability to that BSc certificate.
I am even considering to enroll for the NYSC NIM programme of which I am not fully convinced if this is a right step in a right direction, but I am juz keen on adding more value...
I have a major weakness in quantitative analysis(I am not too good with numbers), maybe due to my nonchalant attitude towards maths in my secondary school days; if i am to rate my self on a scale of 10, then i will unequivocally and pungently state a 4.5 score. I am also considering some improvements in that aspect.
pls I just need candid advice from experienced nairalanders on the career path to follow. I have been stocked in this dilemma for months now and I thought it wise that it was about time I unraveled my grievances so as to get proffered solutions.
pls nairalanders jux be candid, u never can tell, u might jux be saving a soul.
thanks in advance for your candid retorts.

pls mods help me move this to the front page. this request has a very high degree of urgency. thanks for ur understanding in advance.

What is the nysc nim program all about. I think you are better off adding a professional qualification to your degree-ICAN, ACCA or CIBN. That will give you more exposure and added advantage if you must enter the job market. The opportunities around you, your passion and core competence should guide you in deciding the way forward.

Go for ICAN/ACCA because CIBN is just for bankers (IMO). You really need to be good in quantitative analysis if you want to be chartered . So you can start working on that before completion of your NYSC.

thanks a lot for ur candid submission, I will work on that.

Bro, I'm a Banking and Finance graduate, NIM isn't a bad attempt, u can give a trial, but Pls consider taking CIBN, it widens ur horizon. ICAN or ACCA can be done to cos it gives u an edge over oda. Don't be discouraged.
