I got two jobs, and I don't know which to go for.

Job 1 is a Porter position in a hotel. Salary - 40k

Job 2 is a Customer Service position in MTN. Although, the employment is not from MTN directly. It's from a company MTN outsource the job to. Salary is 35k, with a 5k increment every 3months.

Which should I choose, and please give reason. Thanks


How far is both jobs from your place of residence

There is dignity in Labor, but I must be sincere with you except its something you are passionate about you can even do it for free and still get the desired satisfaction, otherwise that salary is nothing to write home about I swear

Some persons up there are saying what will 40k salary do in Tinubu regime. It will surprise you to know that some persons earn as low as 20k as salary a month.. Some doesn't have a job at all..

Re: Which Job Should I Pick? by Sucre7: 7:35pm On Dec 01, 2023
I'll suggest you go for the skilled job. That's Porter in a hotel is an unskilled job and won't look good on your resumé.
Re: Which Job Should I Pick? by surplusbaba(m): 7:35pm On Dec 01, 2023
I will suggest MTN. I know of people that start with 35k in Ison MTN years back and now earning 500k monthly due to experience. Actually, MTN CC will use o..... but u will definitely get the experience. I can assure u of that. So, if u wanna grow career wise, choose MTN. inbox me if u need further clarification as i have once work with MTN Ison b4 as a call centre agent.

Take the customer service role. In a year, your salary will be 55k. The role will juice up your skillset for better opportunities.

Selfless1, please take this advise.

bassdow:


which of them is closer to his place of residence ?

If I were in his shoes, I would go for PORTER since I would be able to do other things like

1. further my education, while placing myself on permanent NightDuty.

2. doing other (odd) jobs while on Night/Off Duty.

3. running a side hustle which while on Night Duty, would have opportunity to monitor.

4. I would be able to sleep at work premises while on DayShift, and only go home on weekends, or when I like,
thereby saving a lot of money that otherwise would have been spent on transportation.

5. I don't have to lie that I am sick whenever I want to submit CV or attend job interviews elsewhere.

6. chances are, I get to enjoy free food, and tips from customers/clients

7.... oya make una add ya OWNs


Also with the customerService job, except you are offDuty (very rare), you only have mostly Sundays to yourself. That kinda of woork, the moment you loose it, you would be useLess to ya self because all your time went into it, with nothing left to further improve yourSelf


The most important skill to have is work experience, if you apply for a job with experience in customer service you will move to the top of the list. You can study anytime and anywhere, by doing an online degree.

Consider the distance to your location, if the job affords you free time to pick up relevant skills or do other things.

Re: Which Job Should I Pick? by adecz: 8:00pm On Dec 01, 2023
Chose none❗️❗️❗️


40k is slave wage unless they are
giving you accommodation.


I see you spending nothing less than
N500 on a daily basis for TP.


Porter sef is the biggest slave work of
morning to night and no weekend.


You never get job yet😐😐😐

go with this op.. I started with like this and today I earn 200k gross from Customer Service. Stay there for about a year or two if e let u do. That way you can pick up experience and please learn CRM tools like Sprnklr and Sales Force and Excel. No do hotel work. MTN may let u work from home if u sabi play office politics. But I'm dissapointed at that amount.

Re: Which Job Should I Pick? by Dennisochampa: 8:05pm On Dec 01, 2023
Both jobs, even though better than nothing, are still now the kind of jobs anyone who wants to go far in life should be pondering over....
See the job as something to gather relevant working experience and also not to be idle...
That being said... With a hotel job, you can earn twice as much as your salary from tips alone.... Depending on how smart, humble and welcoming you are to guests... While for that mtn job, there is no way to earn extra and it's not like you're even a direct employee of mtn so there won't be any benefits apart from the promised 5k which comes every 3 months.... My advice? If you're hard working and smart, take the hotel job... But if you're conformable where you are presently... Then go for the contract mtn job... May the sprit of God guide you to Make the right decision
Re: Which Job Should I Pick? by Adegbol07: 8:14pm On Dec 01, 2023
CRs jobs dont have chuachua especially online CRs only your salary and if you are in lagos it's not easy you will run both day(morning/afternoon) and night shift. Your increament depend with your assessment from quality assurance and productivity within the 3month. Porters job chuachua dey there especially if you have good customer relation skills and your street OT would be 100percent. Don't get comfortable in any of them esp CR because it's contract and MTN can terminate the outsourcing or refuse to renew the outsourcing contract

That customer care agent is definitely not from mtn. Mtn can never stoop so low

The outsourcing company will take their percentage, hence the low starting salary.
