Phoenix11: Concerning the female engr part, I doubt that. The truth is jobs are hard to come by in Nigeria and it got a lot worse since this govt came in. Those of us working in the engr sector, are lucky to still have jobs. Though majority of us who are due for promotions have lost it due to the state of things. The biggest hurdle is usually getting in, you have to find a way to get experience that matters. Keep trusting in God, time is all that separates you from your dreams. I trust the economy would rebound soon. 1 Like |

There are several companies they can actually work with to earn some pay and gather experience which can ultimately add value to their cv but they will still get their brains attached to blue chip companies.

labamo07: That's one of the main problems in our society. Displaying certificates & degrees ain't enough anymore and most graduates still dunno it. It's only small firms that are available & can guarantee gaining experience but most fellows go only for the BIG companies since that's where the money is at. I always tell people "despise not the days of small beginnings". Start small, even with low pay but get that precious experience then entry into that BIG firm won't be so big a deal. 1 Like |

The gift of a man makes way for him - not his certificate. Many people like myself didn't realize this early enough but it's not too late. Look within you and find what you have passion for. Learn skills in those areas and even in areas you don't have much passion for. No knowledge is a waste. 2 Likes |

Nigerian firms as gone beyond using certificate as a means of employment. They want people with skills to run their firms and not certificate dependent minds. A friend of mine with a third class certificate in electrical engineering was moving from one firm to another just because he is very good in c,python and php. Firms were not interested in his certificate but is skills and ideas. Currently he is an online entrepreneur with an autocaptcha service and a proxy provider targeting SEO professionals and Full time IntErnet marketers mostly from tear one countries. He earns millions of naira per month now. ICT is the future and to acquire skills subscribe to Lynda.com or tutsplus for real skill acquisition in ICT. You will be better off than a Nigerian PhD holder because you will be learning from experience tutors and not the types we have in our universities that's knows nothing but theories. A 5.0 CGPA certificate holder without any form of skill does not deserve a job. No skill no job welcome to the new era.. 4 Likes |
