A wise man will always avoid doing or saying anything that he would have to apologize for later. TerryG ...Sorry for yourself!!

"A crime of Passion"

The real Ikwerre ninja (Amaechi) knew how to hunt down these boys and he successfully put them out of business. Now we have ex-militants in the state house of assembly; all thanks to PDP. Tell me why these gangsters won't be fearless, when they have their godfathers as law makers in government.
Amaechi fell out with Patience because of his radical approach to route these guys out.

Wike na your turn now. Do the needful.

Can he still get it up at age 74

Lies from the pit of hell....

Skin Cancer is real....see a dermatologist ASAP.

The Black man still hasn't learnt how the world works. We continue digging ourselves into a hole. These guys that blow up pipelines are criminals with selfish interests. What baffles me most are the people that justify or support them.

[size=14pt]Guys!! This guy is telling the truth. Olisa Metuh's account (bank account not social media account) was also hacked. TeeBillz is telling the truth guys!...I believe him[/size]

"All the comment that was being made are...." Hmmmmm the kpoa is consistent with the previous posts. @ Tunji Balogun; I put it to you that you're responsible for the ugly rants.

Most Nigerian girls almost always have their hands out....when will they stop seeing themselves as beggers. You are not yet his wife, yet you want him to take up the responsibility of your father. meanwhile, YOUR EGO IS WRITING CHEQUES YOUR POCKET CANNOT CASH.

We are talking about PH and not Bornu. Buhari is in Abuja not PH. Your governor is directly responsible for ur security

nbright:
when an apc governor expects the president to call him first when the issue of chibok girls occurred, didn't you guys praise him? When fashola accused Jonathan that it's because of him the robbers were able to escape, didn't you guys support him too? Just because one is a zombie doesn't mean one shouldn't reason once in a while

PS which economy is he trying to fix? Which boko haram is he fighting? Zombiesm is bad.

SO let me understand you; if you're the governor of a state and criminals are crawling at every street corner; you'd take your phone and start calling Buhari!!!!! That's absurd. The governor is the Chief Security Officer of the state. It's his job to work with the CP of his state alongside community leaders and all stakeholders to rid his state from violence. That's his primary responsibility. If he is unable to do so, then I'm afraid he does not have the requisite skills and experience to be governor. Buhari is trying to fix the economy and finish off Bokoharam. STAY THERE AND BE CALLING BUHARI....Everybody hates AMAECHI, but he did a h.e.l.l of a good job on security. Now we're back to square one (like the Odili days). WIKE should drop that bottle of Louis XIII and get to work.

nbright:
who controls the police? Let buhari wake up and do something, its not about travelling anyhow with nothing to show about it

Waterlines is a no go area. 2 weeks ago, I'm in my vehicle around waterlines area and i hear rapid gun shots. Apparently some guys opened fire on a black bullet proof Hilux vehicle (I think they were carrying money). So You can imagine if that vehicle was not bullet proof.....The driver of the vehicle had to drive "one way" in order to escape. I hurriedly veered off aba road towards Rumukalagbor area; I was't interested to see how this film will end. The guys that were shooting casually just strolled away like nothing happened....PH don "Gbolo". But then again we have Ex-Militants (under PDP) now in the state house of Assembly. The governor is washing his hands in the same bowl with them, so what do you expectmore chaos!!

I was chatting on Watsapp with my friend gossiping about linda and I was like: "Aww shame une b.r.e.a.s.t elincane"

He forgot to add:

15. Those that use FaceBook
16. Those that have Nairaland accounts and use Nairaland. Those that use Nairaland without registered acounts are safe

You don’t have to feel like an impostor. So your University degree is not in IT (or IT related) and you’re wondering how to get an IT job. Someone asked this question a few days ago. Here’s the full question:

“I graduated with a degree in Chemistry, but I want to go into IT professionally. Do you think I can get an entry-level IT job given my non-IT background? I’m currently running an IT certification program in NIIT. Although it cost me a lot of money; I’m really enjoying my new experience. I see myself growing rapidly in this field. The only thing that scares me is my Chemistry degree. Do you think I stand a chance to break into the IT industry?”

Coincidentally, once upon a time, I worked in NIIT as a Cisco networking trainer. A lot of our trainees were not always Computer Science majors. In other words, most of them came from a non-IT academic background. So this question on how to get an IT job is not new to me.

I’ve had to answer this kind of “how to get an IT job” type questions countless times. In fact, I get asked this same question at least once a month on average. Most times it’s from non IT staff at some of my clients’ sites. Usually, my presence means there’s a problem that needs fixing. So I come in casually, fix the problem, sign my paper work, chat a little and leave. To them, I’m like “Gandalf” (the all knowing) in the movie “Lord of the Rings”. They see me working with a big smile on my face, full of joy, laid back, always chatty and they think “this guy must have the coolest job in the world”. Truth be told, I love my job.

Not everyone with a degree in IT will pursue a career in IT

I have a first degree in Computer Science and I can remember back in my University days; my class was huge. Of course not everyone succeeded in graduating. But still, the school churned out a decent number. Today (9 years later), only a small fraction is considered to be practicing (IT professionals) in the industry. A lot of them I know have branched off to different fields. Some are professional bankers now; others are into furniture, Politics, Marketing etc. Hell! I saw one (who happens to be a close friend) on “Tinsels” (a popular TV program here in Nigeria) the other day. Apparently, he’s acting now.

So where do all IT professionals come from?

Evidently, we come from different backgrounds; including non-technical backgrounds. There’s no industry that is characterized by disruptive and radical changes like the technology industry. Some may argue that the Health/Medical industry is also experiencing revolutionary changes; but that has only been achieved through the use of technology. So we can see that technology is also a catalyst that drives innovation in other industries. A career in IT demands a life-time of learning new things. I’ve always likened this field to a bus that moves through a city. Everyone is welcome to join the bus at any time from any place and stay on it as long as they want. Old technology is old; you have to learn the new stuff in order to stay relevant. That’s the advantage for new comers, irrespective of your background; you can leapfrog into what is currently trending and ride that wave. All you need is passion, confidence, resilience and an inquisitive mind.

Quit Yapping Josh! Just answer the da.mn question…

Having a degree in Chemistry or any other non-IT degree is not a disadvantage. Rather, it only requires that you have to put in more effort to sell yourself; given the competition out there. Yea, I know you feel my statement is contradictory. Let’s look at it this way; it’s very difficult to get an entry-level IT job with a degree fresh out of the University and no experience whatsoever; whether it’s an IT or non-IT degree. With that being said, a fresh graduate would have to go out of his/her way to get additional training and experience.

This can be acquired through internships or volunteering to work in an IT function in a school, church or small business. Also, would-be IT professionals can get training on specific technologies so as to acquire certifications as proof of competency and to complement their University degrees.

If you see your degree as a limitation; it will become a limitation. This is because, if or when you’re invited for an interview; your interviewer will most likely demand to know why you branched off. Do not feel disadvantaged, confidently give your reasons. If he or she is convinced, this will separate you from the pack. We all get rejected at some point; including yours truly. I can’t count how many times I was turned down until I got my first job. Eventually, your efforts will pay off. The good thing is that, once you get in; it’s easy to move on from there. If you choose to move to a new job role; it’ll now be your experience that counts and not necessarily your degree.

How to get an IT job without a degree in IT

If you’ve read through this post and you’re in a similar situation as described in the above question. I’d highly recommend that you read my post on “Start a career in IT – How to begin” http://www.techbusiness101.com/start-a-career-in-it/. It details a proven 3 step approach to successfully break into the industry; specifically for individuals with a non-IT degree.

Well, those LIPS ain't been kissed in a decade!

She's possessed with the spirit of seduction....for real; it's a spirit. Consult your nearest Bishop

Typical black man, doing what he knows how to do best (bringing fatherless babies into this world) with no sense involved.

LIES from the PIT of HELL!! What kind of "Chei ya, lessons learnt" cock and bull story is this?

Jadonjack:
I'm really not gonna bore you with how the whole interview went but it actually was going well until I was asked to give my facebook Id....

Considering how the hr was enjoying my response to his questions, I happily told him my facebook Id. Putting the name in the facebook search box, nothing of such was shown, he(hr) then said I shld spell it and I did that without a second thought(I never knew customising a facebook id is a job seeking crime). After spelling daniel omoniyi(not real name) as dhaniehl homohniyhi, the man said " I'm so sorry, we can't hire you".
I was so confused that I had to ask him why, and he said " your facebook id look unserious and fake, please use the door".

This is one of the little things we job seekers do not pay much attention to. If someone had opened that account for me, perhaps I will be looking for a way to kill the person now.

Still trying to get over losing a job over "just" a facebook Id.

Lesson learnt anywaiz.

Looking sharp! Pray make Boko boys no sample you.

All these I have this, I bought that, check out my tins and tins. These two people are very lucky they don't live in PH. Niggaboys for don colobi (kidnap) them since. All they said they have acquired and achieved; them go bring am by force. For these two; asking price is 1billion and above.

Well I'd hate to be the one riding in his passenger's seat when his earthly body decides to fail him. Any moment from now....
