Judging by the unreliability of certificates/degrees in Nigeria, medical doctors end up becoming caterers, some banking and finance graduates goe into auxillary (useless version of) nursing, and lots more.

Well, my computer science education has met parochialism here in one company where I work as an elevator technician/engineer.

Do we have any chemist selling Akara? Please talk to us


There is nothing like “career “ in Nigeria. It is all about survival.

B. Sc in Chemical Engineering
M. Sc in Petroleum Engineering.

Despite finishing with good grades, I'm currently jobless. I'm beginning to consider going for PhD though.. It's not easy getting into the oil and gas sector without connect.

Bro, I swear na God. immediately I finished my degree in 2018 I quickly enter street hustle gather money for my NYSC. I saved during NYSC camp, no lavish spending. I got to my ppa in a rural area like that and I discovered that there's no bank nearby so I seize the opportunity, I make inquiries about the POS stuff and I got to know how lucrative it is.
Luckily for me an ex Corper in my local government got a job with a POS company while serving but he stay put cuz he was required to work in the state where he served. I used the opportunity and get a POS machine from him, got a shop and started the business last year December. Then, I used to shuttle between my work place and my ppa. I reason with my employer about what am doing and he gave me the opportunity. I normally go to school from 8am to 11am by 12pm I don japa go hustle for my shop.
Now that NYSC is over am now a full-time business man, a got a part time job last month as well to support my hustle and I'm doing fine.
Also, I'm nursing my Msc degree ambition abroad, have already secured the scholarship, just waiting for corona to vanish so that I can enter embassy collect my visa .
Smart man!
I love opportunists.Believe me many of your counterparts would have neglected this same business and be chasing pipe dreams.
I saw one lady tell you that "you are still growing" and I just laugh grin
Like wtf
1)you are in a rural area meaning you might have so little competition and a huge customer base.
2)your pos charge might be higher.
I see you possible making 10k a day in profit or more....
One monkey say you are still growing grin cheesy
Of course you will grow to expand that same business in other limited markets and cash out na.
You might probably build your brand while she is still earning their usual.
Them sabi neglect business ehn,all this school people grin grin
Goodluck to you mate,
Cc deepwater,no be everything you go know.

I think it would be better u do a masters instead ..and leave nigeria or lecture ..
There are endless possibilities to these things

Yes, I think masters will do but the issue is finances. How do I save from 15k in a month in lagos? Bulk of the money go for feeding. My only hope now is scholarship, I applied to two schools in Saudi buh no response yet and am not sure how long d wait will be.

No medical doctor ends up becoming a caterer.
They may just be doing caterer as a side work but not as a career

very very very difficult to get jobs related directly to geology. only oil company work with very limited demand bt excess supply. you can see job directly asking for engineering/arts/humanities/mass com/law etc but you will hardly see jobs directly asking for geologist. I regret reading dat course

In my field, Water Sanitation and Hygiene, geologists are in high demand. All you need is a little experience and you can quickly build on it
