₦airaland Forum

I dont see anything wrong with her answers. She said the truth and admitted to the problems of Nigeria. We need people like her.

Sometimes I weep when I read things about Nigeria. We have the some of the best brains, but we don't value them.
One of my lecturers, during my Bachelor degree in Nigeria, said the Oil companies in Nigeria are wrongfully exploiting the talents of the country, because they employ graduate engineers with first and second class levels and sit them in the office to be doing excel sheet work or, even working in the field as technicians, instead of doing real engineering designs. Of course, they are well-paid.

Now, back to the story at hand. Most Nigerians who studied abroad want to go back home. I for one, want to go back home and contribute my quota to the country. But the corrupt nature of things there is very discouraging. Even when the jobs are there, you cannot access them, until you know a Governor or a highly-placed political office holder. Most of the projects they contract to foreign companies abroad can be done by Nigerian engineers, if given the opportunity. For, instance, the TSO in Nigeria is investigating power quality issues in the grid and possible solutions, a Nigerian is doing the job. But if this same guy comes to Nigeria and say he wants to do the same thing for the company in Nigeria, they will never allow him a chance.

So, as you rightly said bro, the best solution is to stay behind an look for an opportunity to be an employer in Nigeria

Pls Knidly send it to my e-mail (ammosmann2@yahoo.com).Thanks man.

Hi Guys,this is subject that calls for concern.But according to professional resume writers,some information in your CV can innocently send your CV to the ''Not Needed" file.Such infomation include your Age,State of origin,Religion and Sex.So,it is generally adviseable to exclude those info from your CV , EXCEPT when the advertiser specifically ask you to include them.Also,you can include such info( e.g state of origin) when you are applying for a job has a bias for people from your state.So Guys,be wise beacuse it is said that ", Just as the hunter has learn to shoot without missing;so the birds have learn to fly without perching"

I got B.Eng, Electrical/Electronics Engineering.Thanks man

Hi Nairalanders, I attended an interview after which they told me that they will get back to me.Its almost 3weeks now and I've not heard from them.Pls ,I want to now if it is wise to call them.Your reply is highly needed.Thanks.

You did not specify your area of study.That will help to know which company you will fit in.So,let's know what you studied.

I also applied for the PTDF Design trainning programme.Pls,how did you get your invitation?Pls reply.Thanks

Whether you were asked to submit a cover letter or not,you MUST send one along with your CV.Your CV gives the recruiters the first impression about your qualifications and it is the first document they read.So,without a cover letter,you are a step down.Good luck.
