graduated 2014 computer science 2.1

2015 - early 2016 - Hustled with my boss who had nothing until he got a 300 million naira contract, he frustrated me out of his team (I just kuku resign).

early 2016 - Worked in a hospital as their ICT officer in charge of the hospital's network (agreed salary = N60,000 per month). However, salary was paid once in three months. (I resigned after six months).

2016 - Jeff Bezos employed me part time while i worked in a business center full time (business center Salary - N24,000 per month).

2017 - Resigned my business centre "Job" and started working full time for Jeff (Salary - mouth watering).

I graduated from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka in 2017. I landed my first job in 2019 after my one year vocational Law School training in Lagos.

I worked briefly at the Port Harcourt office of one of the largest law firms in Nigeria. It wasn't quite a pleasant experience with the Managing Associate. So after NYSC year, I decided to leave the firm.

I relocated to Lagos in 2020 and landed a job in March, exactly 3 weeks before Covid-19 lockdown. I currently work for a Senior Advocate of Nigeria who is super successful.

I'm doing great, all thanks to God. They say lawyers don't earn well. Well, I'm proud to say that I'm a major exception to the rule.
In the next 6 years, I will need people like you to help me. Congrats.

Considering how difficult it was to get admission into the University, one would think that once that happened, someone's problems would be over, however that often turns out to be the beginning of an entirely different problem which wouldn't be solved until one had successfully graduated from the University.

Then after the celebration of graduation was over, the reality soon sets in about how all that effort, time and resources, etc being invested into getting a University degree was basically to make one able to get a good job.

A few graduates are lucky enough to get a job immediately afterwards, but most have to wait. And the time of waiting differs from individual to individual. Some have to wait for months, some up to a year, others have wait to for up five years and even more.

So what category do you fall into? He long did you have to wait before you got a job after graduation?

Share your experiences here so others could learn a thing or two to help them prepare for life after graduation.

Cheers.

There was actually no need telling us about the ladies who called you from Nairaland as it has nothing to do with the topic. How long did you wait to get a job after graduation? Simple.

You forbid learning from others experience right?
Maybe you like learning the hardest way.

These girls never knew tommorow and I wish they will see this same man now.

Your salary isn’t 5 figure then, it is atleast 6 figures. Kudos that is the way. God bless your family.
