EXPRESSSMAN:you did a nice job, by recognizing the quality in the candidate and standing your ground to defend your decision in hiring her. She proved you right. Now, it is your job to equally educate your boss (if you are the human resource manager), to learn to get pass physical appearance and focus on the key qualities needed in a candidate, for a particular position, that culture is dead. It's like SARS, branding everyone they see with a nice car and tattoo, a yahoo boy. I'm sure 90% of guys were I work, will not near organization, we have guys coming to with a pirced earrings, ladies with different color of hair and ripped jeans, tattoos and oh, my CEO has a superb punk hair style. But you know what, quarter by quarter, each department in my organization,is breaking their set target. And we don't forget to have fun, every Friday at the company's rooftop bar |

I have gone through the comments: 1. For those abusing me, well if you knew the efforts I took to filter the lady I don't know from Adam to attend that job interview you wouldn't have abused me 2. I was really pained but I couldn't do anything after all me too na employee. 3. Interview continues last last somebody must be picked for the job. UNA WELL DONE |

Your boss is still a learner, in a standard organisation They’ll prefer you to leave the error for them to see. |

Re: How A Highly Intelligent Lady Lost A Job Opportunity. by Kunlelee: 4:49pm On Oct 22, 2021 |
your boss is either heartless or senseless, even you yourself confirm that out of 400 people, this country ehn, if she request for more paper, she will be term wasteful. if you can advice the likes of your boss, tell him to stop frustrating job seekers, the country is currently hard than all this... |

On top 150k. Hopefully I'd never work for a Nigerian company ever again. They never know what is truly important. |

We are just in a country where we play squid game looking for how to oust someone at every point. You just said she's intelligent. My country is just a sh*t hole. If she had gone ahead to ask for another paper then another employer would say she doesn't have good management skills. This is how we tend to lose good manpower. |

They already have their candidate, the lady was just in their way so they use the useless excuse to kick her out. this is why we have qualified graduates roaming the streets why man know man without brains keep getting the jobs. |

Op be realistic,are you sure your boss did not employed her just for that?Or because she might not do your boss secret fantasy? |

emecheboy2: No candidate yet. Interview continues tomorrow. Job is advertised on jobberman |

adubam: This mentality that employees have, that they are doing job applicants a ‘favor’ by employing them is what is contributing to malperformance in companies today. No one is perfect, more so you now know her flaws, why not hire her because of the other stellar attributes she possesses that are needed by the job and advise on this issue? Now, you guys are going to waste time and resources to go through another round of job posting, going through resumes and interviewing people and may end up selecting a candidate with a bigger but hidden flaw. |

BigDawsNet: Me calling you and your Dr. lecturer dumb is a statement of fact. This is because his actions were dumb and I can say that because I have been an academic in federal government higher institution. Hmmm. You obviously know nothing about programming for you to say a programmer cannot make mistakes. I have been a programmer for over 20 years This attitude of that employer is crass and should be condemned as it is flimsy and mundane. I can only congratulate the lady for not working under a silly employer who thinks he is a demigod. God will bless the lady with a better job offer. There are people earning money several times more than that and their BP has not risen |
Re: How A Highly Intelligent Lady Lost A Job Opportunity. by themanderon: 7:42pm On Oct 22, 2021 |
Rubbish. You should have asked that boss of yours if he has never made a mistake before. Everyone has turned into some sort of pharaoh all because of unemployment. Your boss is simply a cruel person. Hitler has nothing on him. First out of 400 and she gets dropped over nothing? May all those that put this nation in this unfortunate situation where hardworking graduates are turned down over immaterialities never end well. |

adubam:Your loss! She will get a better job with better pay at a better company. But your boss might end up hiring a lower quality employee that will mess things up for your company instead of messing up paper. Many Nigerian employers lack sense, they claim to be intelligent but are experts at making stupid decisions like this one. That's why many Nigerian companies collapse after a few years. |
Re: How A Highly Intelligent Lady Lost A Job Opportunity. by BigDawsNet: 8:55pm On Oct 22, 2021 |
numericalguy: I will advice you to always read very well before you make a comment For the second time, I never said " Programmer cannot make a mistake" ....my words are " in programming error is normal " Well you have the right to call people dump... That's your own opinion... You have been in programming for decades You should know every tutor have his or her own tactics of teaching newbie students... My lecturer prefer to mark you zero when he sees a rough biro painted on your worksheet ... This is a personal logic, and I dint say it mandatory for all or should be in Nigeria Educational constitution.... Obviously the attitude of the boss is bad and I'm never in support of it... I'm just trying to tell you every human has is policy...either it's silly or not... We have some boss that will conduct a wonderful hospitality interview with candidates and when thye finally resume office...few weeks latter...these new employee will regret signing the appointment letter... Finally I'm not in support and I wish the lady get better offer some other place... |

adubam:this is purely nonsense. The lady was trying to maximize the resources given to her which shows if peradventure she was employed she will/might be in that best position to utility the company's resources with the present situation of this economy but ur boss is not looking @it from that Angle.. He messed up |

Gudbadguy: The company is the most serious, if you ask me. Giving more than one paper is a good idea. The lesson there is: people should learn to speak up. You can't keep quiet and Nigeria will become great overnight. |

The smart lady probably did what she did when she realized how dumb the interviewers were in order to avoid working with your company. She will surely get another job with a well organized firm. |

adubam: Justice should be tempered with mercy. Your boss should have pardoned her shortcomings and employed her since she did well in both oral and wriiten interview. I pray the lady gets another job. |
