My guy , later in life you will thank God you didn't get the useless job . A place where they can disqualify you for not fully buttoning up to the neck is not a good place to work . Employers like that are users , they are the type that can hire and fire for no good reason .

Better jobs will come ur way by God's Grace , don't just relent you are nearly there.
May God bless you for this

Pls guys let's mind the way we dress when going for interviews.

Went for an interview at grooming micro finance Bank Ojoo (Ibadan). After long waits we were told that two people have been disqualified for the interview already. Little did I know I was the asun "scapegoat".

I had felt a bit uneasy earlier and had released my neck button not knowing the boss there had noted that down" unsmart dress sense"! jeez!! And I had always been soo painstaking about stuff like that especially with tips and experiences from nairalanders...

To Sum it up,I was sent out Cox of da Lil "slumber".was really pissd Cox I had stayed up all 9t practicing interest rates and solvin emergency mathematics. well av learnt my lessons so pls guys not until u get screwed!always b mindful of your appearance Cox u never know,ur village ppl might just be watching
My friend , in the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, you will get not just a good job but also a job where you will work and be happy. I was in BAT for about 4 years and I pray you get a job in that kind of place.

Guy, this is a blessing in disguise. Grooming uses u until u have no savage life in u. They train u to become very arrogant and merciless to get back their money n when e set for u with the client, u are not just on your own only , but u shall be sanctioned. They give with d left n take back with the right hand. Thank ur God in advance for seeing n waving off d disaster ahead.

Maybe God just took an unfortunate event/situation off your path. Don't see this as a disappointment, see it as a blessing in disguise. You'll get a better offer very soon. All the best.

I'm more concerned about the way you write. Those lazy 'shorthand 'you employ in your writings will make you lose opportunities. Better work on it.

You can bash me anyway if you hate corrections.

COX? Are you sure you are okay, isn't it better to write "cos" if you really have to abbreviate

You're defending nonsense. How come all his replies to people's comments were written in the same way? He better work on that use of shorthand. It's plain annoying to see

It's a silly lesson to learn but I trust you've learnt it?

First impressions count...

One company I went for an interview at (this is back in the days- they don't do that now) Put drinks and snacks out and if you helped yourself, they would mark your register.

Companies use psychology to try and understand you because they don't have the power to get to know you.

This particular shit is Nonsense eh grin cos I know I will chop snacks...

Typical Nigerian employers be acting like God cos they think your existence depends on their job.
Was interviewing with a company a while back and the interviewer asked me what I was hoping to earn. I told him 180k and the next question he asked me is how much will transport you from your house to this office. In my head, I was like ewo lo Shi. I am an experienced hire and not a fresh graduate. If you dey find person dey you go calculate his transport fare, go look for interns.
cheesy cheesy cheesy hahahahahha ewo lo shi for real!

I see Nigerians have become slaves because of jobs. I pray you work in a place where life isn't made to be that hard..
