If only 28% are jobless, how come I'm still jobless with my Unilorin 2.1 certificate?

Unilag number 10? I thought they were number 1?

mayprince:
From the second edition of the Nigeria graduate report by stutern statistics where obtained between 2013-2018 Graduates from Convenant University are the most employable in Nigeria ,followed by UNN then UI,Other key findings from the report shows that 60% of new graduates earn below #50,000 as monthly salary,also unemployment is gender biased as female graduates suffer the most, it was also shown that less than 10% of graduates studied the 10 most employable graduate courses.

Proudly librarian and I am looking for job

One thing I don't understand is how they came about the offline regions as those 5 states listed above since they are states that have people that are very technology savvy. I would have expected to see more of the Northern states in the offline states.
More so, the methodology isn't clear. Did they just ask your course of study, institution of study, and what you do? Did they account for connections and parental status in how the employed ones got their jobs?
Good job well done though and hopefully, they will increase their sample size for future surveys.

nice analysis

nice analysis
but do bear in mind that the school you attended to, don't determine your chance of getting a job
it's your personal qualifications, how sound and intelligent you are. thanks

Although my alma mater made it in the list, what criteria was used to determine this so-called "employability"?

Hail Varsity of Nigeria, My Alma mater

Zieina:
LASU scores points than Unilag? Well.. with LASU's current VC, the stats are well changing.

I don't believe it. I think the research is compromised by its relatively small sample size.

Jarus, what do you think of this?

Op you mean say we the grauate of Niger Delta University (NDU) we nor get future?

Unilag na rubbish school where nonsense lectures with nothing upstairs feel like gods. Unilag should not be in that list.SMH

Says it all "Job seeker more than job itself " ok don't see the relevance of the list If we can't create jobs and solve basic human being problem all this ranking MOST TIME is for pride without corresponding results a country where the budget for education is the lowest same as healthcare

My School be repping always!! Great Futminna!!

leshluap:
I don't understand,5,219 graduates? Across how many states?.. if CU produces 1000 graduates in a particular year, and by the following year, 500 are already employed. (50%).
And UNIBEN, in the same year sends out 10,000 graduates, and only 2,500 get employed within one year, (25%)..

Is the parameters for judgement the same? No,...

we all know, most private uni graduates get employment not necessarily because they are good, but because most of them are 'connected'.

Tell the researchers to take out CU from the list. or they should tell us how they come about their result. lets see the analysis.

Didn't you read his post? Have you seen any unemployed CU graduate. Have you interacted with them? I know a civil engineering firm in Lagos that would only employ CU students. I joke not.


Modified... Was just scrolling through twitter a few moments ago and saw this... I'm tell you CU is the future, stay on nairaland, don't leave your room and be bashing the school.

Lies. UI is number one followed by OAU

You will not keep shut, you know better than them.

Funny enough the remaining 28% are creators of jobs

Unilag students are probably not 1-9 because they are usually the employers (if you know, you know).

Employ a LAUTECH graduate at your own risk.

The males are very good at all forms of advance fee fraud while their females - na olosho work dem sabi.

I will not say anything about Onabisi Onabanjo University Graduates. No words can describe how useless they are.

The outcome of this survey is highly misleading. It should read, more covenant university graduates easily get fixed-up in high paying Job by their influential parent or Guardian than graduates of any other Institution.

Team OOU....all the way

The most sensible post of the year so far

HigherEd:

Sample size is small sha. But i'm very confident that any thorough study would still place CU on top.
I'm also at variance with the research methodology. Whenever you want to do an employability survey, it is better to sample Organizations rather than individuals. If you sampled 5,000 HR managers it could be accepted than 5,000 graduates. If you must sample graduates then be ready to sample at least 150,000 graduates x years of study. After which you would standardize the result according to the graduating class of each university - which would be an incredibly difficult work to do because it would require collecting massive amounts of data. But not impossible.

Anyway kudos to the Stutern team, at least your sample sizes are getting bigger every year.
God bless Covenant university!

although d study had input from jobberman, u equally made some good points about d methodology & sample size. D study might b a bit too narrow

Which course

Medicine number one.In medicine after completing your six years and go for houseman-ship you are still not really employed.NYSC,then job searching.Quite many of them,I mean the fresh doctors are not employable in our private hospitals (most likely destination) where they are managing small pennies.This is one of the reasons why doctors in Nigeria are looking for greener pastures in Europe.So how medicine got to your summit is debatable.Okay.

where did you get your data in a dataless and lifeless country.
