OP is not about 2.2 or 2.1.I finished with a 2.2 2013 by his grace have worked for 3 different companies with a very good pay.
i found out i will come out with a 2.2 in my 4th year 1st semester so i started preparing my self for the labor market did my IT in a gas company, after school did contract job with a brewery company and served in a power company ( studied Electrical Electronic Engr) so u see i had Knowledge of the three sectors before i finished service so it was easy for me to update my CV with all this infor based on where i want to apply for a job.
Try and get more skills to update your CV and do a lot of voluntary Job if not go for your Masters and think outside the Box. You be surprised by what you can imagine and do.

In my honest opinion;
There's no reason in the world why any University student should graduate with less than a 2.1.


So if you couldn't excel in a University,

No employer believes you will in his business.

Though 2.1 is good but we all can't have 2.1.

What does Buhari has that he become President? Does he has WAEC but he become President? I does not knows why people does not believe that you can does anything in Nigeria.

Most 2.1s were bought with money or bottom power.

closerange:
It is already a lot difficult to get a job with a 2.1.. Even First class sef... In your next life, try and make a 2.1.

Chai you harsh .

Please don't go there, I'm in 2.1 cos I worked hard to get it, which one is bought it with money and bottom power? I don't even know lecturers' office so don't say bottom power, its all about hard work and determination, knowing what you want.

Pls show us your WAEC certificate and your degree cert, then we can start from there. It not by grade but by grace. Note, I graduated with 2.1

vingeophysicist:

Just two months and you are here complaining. You just enter nah.

greatiyk4u:



Why is your opinion always different from others?

He is lookin for attention so just ignore him

JefLonDon:
2:1 is a way of managing the Public, i have seen 2:2 employing 2:1 at the end........

HushPuppi doesnt knw wat a 2:1 is, but the main reason they deal with 2:1 mostly is cuz they believe thats where good people belong........does who flirt and do cultism in school end up with 2:2 mostly and you wont want such people loitering ur work space.

If You can excel in School, how can you excel in a Competitive Working Environment.

Its true, having 2.1 is not an easy job, you must be very serious and determined.

Halo22:

i have acquired networking skills all through that process but yet...(CCNA)

That is why I like Govt work. Whether 2.1, 2.2 or even 3.1, once you get conne......you are there.

goldedprince:

Rorachy:

Hah this Post was 10 years ago
If it was difficult then, I can only Imagine how it would be this years.
Sha I know its just the Connection that matters.
because if Ur call connect and papa God pick!
U go choose jobs.
.

For the students abeg things hard, the job market is competitive. Work Smart and get atleast a 2.1 it gives U a better chance! at employment.

State university and lecturers don't make it any easier to get a 2.1.

Oga, my candid advice is that you should forget 2.1 2.2 and move on. I finish with 2,1 in mechanical engineering, I got my first appointment with nokia even b4 the completion of my Nysc, bt the company downsized cuz of lumia coupled with recession and since then getting a paid job has been hell, so i decided to gather the few money i had, get some plots of Land and I started farming. I also enrolled in a welding workshop and soon i'll get my license to start my own welding enterprise.

Chai guy are for real?

Rorachy:

We are saying same thing.

does it matter what you graduate with? Just create a job application and say only 2.1 needed the number of unemployed 2.1 graduates will overwhelm you..
My advise to you:
1)Pray to your God
2)Improve your skill set
3)Keep on applying


Now the most important keep doing 1,2 and 3 and don't stop

STUPID QUESTION. YOUR GRADE IS NOT YOUR PROBLEM, YOU ARE YOUR PROBLEM.

people wey get pass even they get job,na who knw who jare

The more reason why more and more graduates and undergraduates should embrace entrepreneurship now

Don't give me that crap everyone cannot be entrepreneurs

I'm not talking about everyone

I'm talking about you

Rorachy:
State university and lecturers don't make it any easier to get a 2.1.

forget that thing .i won't argue with you .My only advice to you is for you to attend fed university for masters and see the difference
