If you are JOBLESS and you still patronize products made by companies who doesn't do PUBLIC RECRUITMENTS or companies who wouldn't give you an opportunity to INTERN (Paid/Volunteer), then you are a FOOL.... use your brain!
As for me and all my classmates, we have decided not to patronize any food companies that does the above.

7up, Cadbury, Viju, Friesland.....you will never see them advertise any vacancy, yet they have placements for their relatives and friends.
If I see their retailers around my mom's shop, I chase them away like goats!

Friesland and cardbury dey do advert for job. The fact that you did not see it doesn't mean they don't

Lool...it is not as bad as you make it sound. These companies are not sole proprietorship, they use third parties and sometimes even contact you directly without even applying for the job. At other times a vacancy might be a available and they may ask insiders who have worked for rival companies like theirs if they know someone in their former office that can fill the role...this helps them monitor and understand competitors.
I would like to ask: are you on linkedin? What is your proffesional profile like? What is your online presence and rep like? Work on your professional profile online and I am sure you will get singled out

But then, if those rival companies never gave others a chance, would there be an opportunity for Cadbury or whatever firm to poach from a rival company? The answer is no.
Sometimes it is not experience that matters but enthusiasm towards learning the job. Everybody is looking for experienced staff, which one did they train?

7up is a product of The Coca Cola Company so you can thank me later for removing it from your list. Secondly, the answer was already given in the second comment so why is this on frontpage again?

Really! 7up a product of Coca-Cola? Lol....
Let's assume I did make a mistake with just that, Is that enough to call me a Jambite? I really wonder how you think..... What's exactly is the correlation of being a Jambite and making an error from a whole bunch!

This is a nice move. Create a hashtag for it on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. You will see how fast they start advertising. Even though I'm not looking for work, i support this move

I have never seen anywhere Cadbury advertised for Job especially for Graduate Trainee position.
Even when I Went to their office Twice at agidingbi for IT during pre-graduate days, They will always say 'NO VACANCY'

Its MTN, Shoprite, Spur, Park N Shop and those South African companies that we should boycott their products

Lol @ goat
Will you run if you see cow then?
By the way you are right. They are only taking and not giving back.

Blingchinny:
I don't care if they use any third party. Why will such a BIG company like those be using Third party.
If Nestle, Nigeria Brewery, Coca Cola FMN etc can advertise on their website even though they will still use other companies like Dragnet to conduct exams, Why can't Cadbury, 7up etc.
They want me to keep buying Bournvita, etc, but they cannot give me an opportunity even IT nah war. I don't care about the quality of their product, I will just NEVER BUY them! I used to be a great fan of Viju and Bournvita, but after I saw what they really are, I have bought SENSE into my brains...
I AM NOW WISE!

Risk management policies

Chivita is worst because I know a contract staff, he's paid #1000 for each day's work in their factory in Ajao Estate, and sometimes he may be sent home, they advertise in TV at a time rigorously with Kosoko for people that can remember, they don't sponsor programs and help upcoming events but are partners with my club Manutd, no community service programs and the road to their company is very bad.

Always make sure you monitor their websites too. A lot of them advertise on their sites.

Like wonder you people can't get jobs. Cadbury is a subsect of Mondelez. Several times, Mondelez have announced job openings for several roles in Nigeria and even did less than two weeks ago.

Most multinational firms have parent companies and the names quite differ from the local name you know them to be in your country. 7Up is not an independent company but a brand of a particular company(PepsiCo). For Viju, well, I wouldn't advise you to think of applying let alone work for them. Viju is owned by some Chinese individuals and the job conditions are better defined as slavery.

Friesland recruit from time to time and they do it on their Global site. You might have been looking and stalking the wrong website ever since.

Cadbury is a local name. It's like wanting to see Nittol recruit whereas Henkel has been making calls for applications for several roles. It's nobody's fault you are ignorant of this.

PS: As a job seeker, you owe it to yourself to make proper findings, particularly for multinational coys as they tend to have parent companies. It is not a crime to search.

They employ children of the rich, politicians, kings, meanwhile, these sets of people do not patronize them. Yes, i will join you to do protest in forums. Nestle, cadbury and many of them, know them, who is a fool? Their image will be tarnished by the time we come out to tell people not to buy their products. Henceforth, i will tell my children friends and family to stop after all this products are not health friendly.

Okay Thanks

The op is making lot of sense but will his fellow young unemployed graduates agree with him NO! And you know why Because they are the dull ones being recruited from the back door making the op to cry, what a sad nation we live in

During my job-hunting days, I got NNPC job, I was cheated; my name was swapped even after I passed glaringly and got congratulated by the interviewers, etc....I got NLNG got screened out for age reasons....I got Mantrac and again after telling me to come meet with my prospect department Mgr, I didn't hear from them again; I later learnt they took someone else who didn't pass....what about Glo, where do I start where do I end Nigeria is a messed up nation, thanks to Abokis who ruled us for years with cow constitution and laws making it possible for Nigeria Nigeria's foundation to be completely messed

Op, while you submit CV, don't neglect entrepreneurship...I know it isn't easy, but if we can finally find a way, then you too can...and I pray God Almighty make a way for people like you trying their best to make it in life, its sad mhen

Hypocritical fool, you and those mumu National Association of Unemployed Graduates are the same, you and your classmates will betray yourselves in no time.

Companies that serve over 50 million customers, what volume do you consume as an individual? Your abstinence will not be felt.

Better change your mentality and work towards making yourself employable because as you currently are, no one will employ you except those companies that pay graduate N26k monthly.

[quote author=CioAngels post=69287005][/quote]You guys should join force and put up a campaign against all these injustice....storm their Twitter handles....if many of you keep doing this everyday, trust me, it will trend on Twitter and draw some right attention.

Only the youths can push for change in Nigeria, and with social media and internet forums like this, Nigerian youths can correct so many anomalies in Nigeria of today, its really disheartening because I can feel the op's frustration haven been there back then

delishpot:



Most times they work with 3rd party HR companies who recruit for them. You will notice this when a HR company posts vacancy and writes...... Our client is a well known FMCG manufacturer who is looking for a ........ to become a part of their ever expanding team

Yes with the source/hr companies, they do that too, referring their own to the hiring companies pass or fail. I will join him to bring down their sales, let the children of the rich, politicians and Kings buy from them.

I'm afraid you are channelling your energy in the wrong direction. There are too many people seeking extremely few jobs.

Question your government. Question the people you voted to lead you.

Although at the end of the day you have the right to boycott any product you wish, I don't think this is the solution.

My dear, why are you Crying blood.... Why is it biting you so badly? I really don't understand!
I don't care if my patronage will be felt or not. I used to take Bournivita every morning while I was in school for 4 years. I no longer take it, at least they LOST ME!

Blingchinny:



If they keep doing what you just said like Recruiting from within, what will happen to fresh graduates and people without experience?
Yes! I am on LinkedIn. If you try approaching their HRM or other top managers, They keep giving you the Ignoring attitude and NO vacancy talk... Even if what you are asking for is a NO PAYMENT INTERNSHIP just for the sake of experience.
Yet they tell us about "EQUAL OPPORTUNITY NONSENSE" on their career page!
Cadbury cannot give young graduates a platform to start their career, they want ALREADY MADE from NESTLE and Co. but then, you want people to buy your products!

Relax, i have already available people to join you on the boycott of their product.

LinkedIn works too well...infact, it is where you can connect with professional people more. Most people around me use LinkedIn, personally i just have a profile and I have not really explored it yet. I actuallt got an invitation to send my CV for possible interview but didn't follow through. I know 3 people who got way good jobs on linkedin may-june this year and about 2 people who got contacted by third party HRs by just viewing their profile without even applying...it works, it really does. The key is to sell yourself on linkedin, connect to the right people and be very professional.

LinkedIn is mostly Advantaged to people who have years of Real work experience with reputable companies in their field.
If you are an upcoming professional without relevant work experience..... You will end up being just a spectator!
