These same HR are the people who recruit employees based on subjective criteria such as man know man, Abuja connection, brown envelope, long leggism and other means of subjective recruitment. Lmao |

puyol5:Why would you apply for a job that require 2 years experience if you don't have it? ...and that's the best you can come up with?..they should give you a chance because someone had to give them a chance?...this statement exposes you as someone who is narrow minded.... has poor reasoning skills... would not be a problem solver.... cannot be a team player....would blame others for lack of progress all because you refuse to look into the mirror..... not asking yourself what you can do improve yourself to be a competitive applicant. Shouldn't you be advising readers not to apply for jobs if they haven't met the requirements?...shouldn't you be advising them that they should take even the low paying jobs from start ups so that they can have job experience? This is just one point of your write up that I picked on to show why soooo many people are not hired.... it has nothing to do with connections. What you are doing in this write up is to encourage others to lay blame on connections rather than get their act together and be better prepared. The job market is very competitive....few jobs...manyyyy applicants. .. the better few would be chosen. Do people get jobs because of connections?..sure... that's worldwide... not restricted to Nigeria. What also is worldwide is failing to prepare is preparing to fail. 2 Likes |

charles009:oga you guys should stop this entrepreneur rubbish. Most people need a stable environment to work for a while. They also need to save up before they can start their own business. Why did you have to work in your 720k net job in the first place. Stop saying nonsense and derailing this thread. op its not true. Most entry level jobs are actually by merit. Check out the big 4. Will soon share my story. 2 Likes |

This is not true! In fact, it is as experienced hire that you need connection to get jobs. For entry level, vacancies are more and those with connections can't fill all the slots |

mfm04622: Yes there are people who get jobs based on merit. For instance, I shake my head when I see people struggle for jobs in government agencies like FIRS or FRSC. I have family members who got jobs there without stress because they have the connection. Sometimes they do secret recruitment, Even when they publish, it's just to fulfill righteousness. 1 Like |

puyol5:if I tell you all the professional courses I acquired these past years just to be favorable, you will not believe it. During those past years, i was writing professional exams for my classmates on computer tech cos I was the best then. when etisalat came to Nigeria and i went to their office to submi t my C.V, a guy I met saw all my qualification and refused to submit his. he felt intimidated and went home. he was very sure that they were going to employ me.That was how all my knowledge was going down day by day. I looked for job and got tired. Anyways one oyibo employed me online and since then I've been working for him. online sure pass jaree 1 Like |

When you think the problem is out there, you empower what is out there to control you^ You only get what you believe and imagine^ I got my present job of over 200k p/m without any connection^ Lastly, make God your best friend becus he breaks protocol s like kilode 2 Likes |

Fatchi:Hmmm.... "learn a trade" is just a way to pacify the less privileged ( those with God as their hope). I have friends who learn trade(cake, catering decoration etc) but I tell you, they barely get orders within months. How do one cope with that?? Only God will save us. |
Re: Only The Connected Get The Jobs At Entry Level. But Why? by livgenius: 3:43pm On May 26, 2017 |
aamstih: Connection is when someone gets a job over a more qualified or equally qualified candidate because he knows someone. Referral is when you are well qualified for the role and someone that knows this send your cv to whoever is hiring for them to make a decision without trying to influence the outcome. 1 Like 1 Share |
