Learn an entrepreneural skill that you can use to keep yourself hanging on while you job hunt or go for more skills on your career line. First of all, decide on the career path you want to take then dive into it with sleeves rolled up |

Certification is better but don't venture into it with all ur savings. Certifications won't put food on ur table immediately. Find something that will give you steady income. After graduating worked for a while with no good income. Naa so I carry laptop connected to the Internet and started book publishing. Today, I am free. I see between N900,000 - N1,000,000 monthly by God's Grace and have been doing this and taking care of a lot of financial obligations. Take advantage of the Internet legitimately and be financially free. No company in Nigeria will pay you what a dedicated and diligent work will give you on the Internet legitimately without defrauding anyone. Spend 30 Minutes a Day Learning a Marketable Skill Success doesn’t go to the smartest or strongest, but to the most skilled. When you have something valuable to offer the marketplace, people will pay you for it. Devote 30 minutes a day to learning new skills for fun and profit. The Youtube is my teacher and i will be most grateful to God for opening my eyes to skills there. Whether it’s writing, coding, marketing, Facebook ads, a new language, sales or negotiation, don’t let a day go by where you don’t improve your skill set and abilities. Work no dey Nigeria o, use ur tongue count ur teeth b4 hand meet u. Peace! 11 Likes 1 Share

Start building your network.. be it professional or "longleg". Start your job application during your NYSC and register on sites like Linkedin dot com, Indeed dot com etc. Get your CV tailored well by a professional and upload on those sites. Best of luck! 2 Likes 1 Share |

emmadeking: PMP is an American certification while PRINCE2 is for Britain. Further research on Google will enlighten you more. Any certification you got during NYSC is mostly trash. They just issue that to signify that you have 'heard' about the skill. Nobody will employ you with that. 4 Likes |

royalads: The best comment I ever read on nairaland. The reason I keep lamenting about how our lazy EFCC is trying to criminalize those gadgets. To the lazy EFCC and indeed most Nigerians, working with a laptop at home automatically qualifies one as a Yahoo boy. That's what they call me in my street, but who cares? By the time I finish building my digital empire, they'll be asking the source of my wealth. Lazy youths, lazy EFCC! The online space is full of potentials for those who can take advantage of it. This is a 21s-century economy — everything is digital. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Very simple! If after graduation, you know you want to work as an accountant. Go to all the job sites you know, take out the entry level role of a needed accountant, highlight all thier similarities and start acquiring those skills one after the other. Money only comes to those who deliver value! If you want to earn big, then what must be inside you will have to be big. And this is not just salaried job alone, including enterpreneurship. If you can deliver more value to the marketplace, you will command more money! So visit jobad for that dream role and start acquiring the skills needed by these employers for that role. It will take time to hit the top, Or you sit down on your couch and grumble how economy is messed up and blame buhari, which is the easier route 6 Likes |
