Yea kinda of...

They gave me a conditionn to maintain 23hrs power... Couldn't guarantee 3hrs

100Mpbs
Could not assure them to get 60Mpbs with Nigeria weird network service

Same job I'm doing here without stress

Na Only God go save Nigeria

what happen to other energy sources and work place like cchub register with 8 to 7pm and use gen for the remaining hours

It's actually very normal.

As a Nigerian, you're already losing 10-0 to life in the cyber space.

You have to be extra smart and good at what you do to make it in this space.

I'm not needed here

do they provide 23hrs power ? They will close of course

Yup, power, time, NDA and internet speed were there main concerns wich i guaranteed but still didnt get it. for NDA they said they cant act on it if i default due to my nationality and complexity involved.

Lucky to get 2 from uk and 1 from finland handling their CRM software and web management respectively.
.
As a nigerian also target smaller eu nations and those with little time zone difference

Multiple times. From SEO job to article writing.

It's crazy!

Many usually don't just outrightly reject, they'll just ignore conversation and ghost you.

This mostly happened in Arab countries. Here in Dubai Nigerians hardly find good job due to employers rejection for no reason

Why cant you work for yourself like smart people do

Pls how do you work for yourself & how's it different from the issue raised in d thread?

I lost out on a $1200 per week job few months ago because i mentioned the word, Nigeria. I was supposed to earn roughly $5,000 monthly and the project was to continue for a year plus. I eminently qualified for it cause I met all the requirements they sought for.

It happens we move. I ended up getting a replacement with the same figure sha. Today I work with three major firms, One an Asian firm and two American firms. With the quality of projects I've pushed over the past year with them, they will never hire a non-Nigerian again. I made sure i over-deliver with every project to reinforce this narrative

TalatuEz:

If you work for yourself, will you give yourself job to do? Is it people that will patronise you. This is not karakata business o, they are talking about online jobs.

BOOKWORMLUX:
Hypocrisy is when you hail Yahoo boys and expect a foreign firm to hire you to work for them
Do you know if the owner of the company you want to work for has been scammed by the Yahoo boys tarnishing the image this country has?
Or even their relatives....
If I be oyibo , the golden advice for my children go be "If you hear NIGERIA, run for your life

So that means no more visa and embassy in Nigeria na. All of them should kukuma pack and run for their lives.
And all of us should just remain here. No more travelling anywhere.
-
Unfortunately, despite the destruction the (bastard) yahoo boys are doing to the nation's reputation,
foreign nations have to still break their head to take terrible risk to still do business with "good & trustworthy" Nigerians, here or overseas.
It's just a bitter pill for them to keep swallowing.

We HE come from heaven to save the country for you, dust your PVC, it time to make the difference

Times without number

STEADY.

I don’t overthink it. Many are concerned with our power issues. They know these things.

Internet speed and electricity is an issue for them.

Me no even see remote jobs talk more of rejection.

Build your website with us for 30K

Exactly what does one get for 30K? Will there be annual renewals etc?

Thank you.

You should have taken the job and find places. Bet9ja shops must always have light. Fast foods and some hotels always have light. There is a hotel I Know that's is always on light. What you do is buy something. Go to the Vip lounge and buy water 500...you dey there till night. If you drink, buy beer. I Know people that do it daily !!

A friend of mine lost an opportunity to work for jp morgan as copywriter. According to email he received he's fit for the position but can't be considered due to his nationality. #lala pls push to front page for wider audience. Pls share your experience.

JP Morgan will never write you an email and tell you that they rejected you because you are Nigerian. Never!

At best they might say they are recruiting only US-based writers.

I have clients literally on every single continent and never once has my nationality been an issue. Because my work speaks for itself.

I have been doing this for almost 10 years btw.

You can always work around this if you have money. For speed, get cobra net or spectra net... Electricity buy solar. If the pay is good, you work around it

sukkot:

Are you not using an internet enable phone? Check on line na....eg quora, google, youtube etc

Wisdomclass1:


You can renew after one year if you like

If I don't renew, does it mean the website's gone forever?

Akinsete19:
Yes, I remembered working for a popular Canadian website community with over 200,000 members as an SEO expert. I worked 2 to 3 hrs per day from Monday to Friday, and I was paid $200 per week back then. The CEO complained that he can't pay a Nigerian that much because the minimum wage in Nigeria was barely $70. He later terminates the job after 2 weeks because he feels I am earning too much as a Nigerian.

U dont say!

öne told me she would get back to me after her vacation, but her colleague posted a photo of them at work same morning.

This is when the person has earned some money from it naw. A new freelancer might not have these resources. I like that hotel idea you dropped. Very nice one.
