But some would say that opportunities to become even cashier don’t exist anymore?

No, there are lots of opportunities. Indeed, most times, I feel disappointed when I hear young people saying that there are no jobs. There are lots of jobs out there. I’m in the transport sector and I know how badly we need drivers. Some years back I learned to move a car around for the first time and I was very excited because I had acquired a skill I could use to feed myself. This is where the skill brought me. If I didn’t know how to drive, I would probably not be working for a transport company like this; it wouldn’t have been possible.
The challenge is that we have a lot of graduates who think they must start big automatically. I think we have to begin to lower such expectations. For instance, we have a lot of graduates who joined us as drivers but who are now managers. They have grown from driving to the top.

Do you recruit only graduates as drivers then?

Not necessarily. If you can read and write, that’s the basic requirement. But there are some who even though were graduates, came in as drivers. And of course, education would always make you stand out; it would always advertise you. So if we see opportunities where you can fit in, we put you. But the point is that most graduates will tell you that they cannot be drivers.

But when you say you are looking for drivers but you can’t find, is it that there are no skilled drivers around?

There are, but again it depends on who wants to do the job.

Why won’t they want, remuneration?

Not really. Actually, we pay times three the country’s minimum wage. I think it’s just the mindset that I can’t be a driver.

Could it also be lack of awareness? How for instance will a potential driver apply to work here?

Anyone who wishes to apply can simply visit our website, www.avisng.com and do so. This is not only in Lagos; we have locations across the country: Benin, Enugu, Delta, Cross River, etc, so it’s wherever you can apply.
