The Bible say ask and you shall be given, knock and the door shall be opened unto you.

The jobs you apply to everyday, you are in one way asking to be part of the company. You are begging to be part of the company. But don't wound your ego

but you are an electronics engineer and you are looking for a job ? there is this electronics guy in osapa lekki who didnt even go to university. he has a shop and fixes everything electronics. my shaver stopped working and i took it to him, he fixed it. if you know what you are doing with electronics you can easiy make 50,000 naira in one day if you open your own shop

Don't mind him, Nigerians and job this job that. If someone that doesn't go to school can think outside the box, then what about so called graduate.
A graduate still thinking about job these period is on a long thing
No wonder the country is going down economically.

In Abuja where I am,I think mechanics is one of the best lucrative job. 90% of Abuja people don't bargain as such. Those mechanics will charge 25k for coil meanwhile de have it in there garage. De will advise u to buy second hand coil that it's better than de New One
I'm a mechanic too, and i have an OBDII scanner and I reside in Bayelsa state, I'm planning on residing to Abuja, please I need a job, help me my people

Nigeria schools dont teach hand on job practicals. And nigeria students dont give themselves brain to go learn somewhere.

Introduce yourself to him, tell him what you do and your skills set. And then conclude by telling him any part of his businesses you think your services will be valuable to him.

He may not offer you an opportunity immediately, but he may probably get back to you if need be.

One of those moments I sat down and had a deep thought of so many things, I reasoned my level of pay as at now that even if I worked for 5 years at my current job, I would strugle harder than I used to just to afford accomodation, remain unmarried and that is if I put in my fee as hope. Secondly the value I wanted to add to my current place is not appreciated nor welcoming.

I can't be having a timeline for myself for settling down, and I'm been held back because I want to gain experience. I'm not getting young, in my late twenties already.

I changed three jobs in less than a year, worked in a law firm with 7k as a fee I earned just my two weeks in the firm which I had to drag with my princiapl, worked in a hospital for months with no pay and did a database and other tech stuffs someone else will charge thousands, I did all these for free and I earned a toatl of 20k for the hospital I worked in for about 4 months plus my legal and tech skills. Now about to be on my fourt job within the brackets of alomost a year with a better pay. I wont stop changing jobs even if its a thousand jobs until I'm been paid well and knowing I add value at my place of work.

One of those annoying syndromes about my profession aslo is that they tell you to learn and work while you work under pressure, drafting taking about 70% of your time and brain. I have been to some seminars and conferences and hear senior members of seniors of my profession bash members who are seeking for a job or selling themselves to clients for a better job or too interested in the pay. I find it annoying how they laugh at others and try to make it look like its against our professional ethics to scout for a job or sewek better pay.

funny thing is that my profession pays far below minimun wage in this country we live in, except you are in a company or a corporate law firm of which I'm moving into very soon.

So I still say even though I have an 80% chance of the current job I'm moving into, I'm still open to high paying jobs as a lawyer, digital and Tech lawyer included to my curriculum and personal skills.
Send me an email if you have a business offer, job or anything. I'm available.

Don't please. Rather, get close to him and build an informal relationship. Any opportunity you have with him should be utilised well in discussing things that are of importance to him.

Decode what his interests are and channel your discussions towards that. Most importantly, know his business and what he does for a living and try to understand the workings of that area to aid in your informal discussion with him.

At the appropriate time, you can let the cat out of the bag and tell him your concerns and how you need his assistance.

Why not? I don't ask people tire. A close mouth don't get fed.

I will ask again, I need a job (Electrical/Electronic Engineer) I beg all of una make una help me
Baba... you have a good skills naw unless you only deal on the theorical aspects without practicals....
As an typing this now, one electrician is busy dribbling us, I will come today I will come tomorrow, through out yesterday we waited and called him he didn't show up, if he finally shows up, I'm sure we will still apologize to him for disturbance, because he sabi work....grin

I've worked as an interior designer and wall finishing, so I can categorically tell you electricians are raking millions with condict wiring and the rest of them, what you need now is to attach yourself with someone who knows the job, you can even pay to learn for some months, from there, you start getting connected and will be amazed to see that you will be the one running away from money and work...
