Enskynelson:


Drop your programme and I can send you a guide

Thank you very much!

Course - Bus. Admin.

How do I go about the TMA too

Enskynelson:

At the point of verification, that's where you will likely have issues. It's not done by proxy as you will have to present your passports and be seen present physically unless you know someone, a staff who personally knows you at the Lagos Study Centre.

Thank you!

Do you have a copy of the academic calendar?

Secondly, how do I start reading on my own?

I really don't know the courses we would be taking.

Modified:
I guess It's not possible cos 1st TMA starts by August.. Can't wait till then.



Phew!

I'm confused

Enskynelson:

Your understanding is very accurate on my explanation. Very right. It's every semester. Your first semester is 36k + course and exams reg, subsequently is 18k + course and exams reg.

Hi Ensky,
Quick question please.


I want to start my application for First semester but my problem Is,
I want my study center to be In Lagos but I'm currently not In Lagos now but I'll be coming to Lagos by September.

Can someone help me do the whole registration and clearance In Lagos without me being there physically?

I really don't want to register In the study center here cos of the whole Issue with Changing of Study center(that's what I heard).

So, Is it possible?

Excellent111:


Oga relax, the info on the first page didn't specify whether the requirement was for Bsc or Msc, it was all general.

Besides it's a simple enquiry, what is with the "spoon feed"? Did i ask you for links to admission/scholarship application pages?

These abroad based people and attitude,TUEH!.

You are actually the one with an attitude. TUEH!

TIPS FOR NIGERIANS COMING TO GERMANY FOR STUDIES.

Note: these are my views, so don't fight...

For almost three years, in Germany, my advice to a young Nigerian coming here for studies.

1. Learn the Language if you can before coming; at best, start learning in Nigeria
2. Never study a course you are not down for, don't struggle in an area that is not a good fit for you.
3. Do not focus on lager jobs when you arrive. It's a bad deal. I know it may be difficult, but focus more on work student position in a company focusing on things related to your course of study.
4a. I would advise, you take the first six months of your Blocked account-sponsored stay in Germany to intensively apply for a work student position in a company rather than start a lager job from the first go. I understand some of you may have to return the funds you collected from people. If that is the case, start applying for work student positions in Nigeria. Those in IT have a good chance. I have heard of a UNN student working for an IT firm in Germany in a work student position. He receives a monthly stipend of like 1500 euros for 80 hours per month of work.

4b. The most valuable assets you have in your first 2 years here are the Internet, constant power supply and your student status. Many fail to understand the power of this resource. They undermine it or take for granted the opportunity that has been presented before them. Don't spend your time streaming videos always, engage the internet for productive uses. Don't be deceived, time flies in Germany. Before you know it, 2 years is gone. Maximise these resources for your own gain, learn a skill or software, your school may have the premium version software, ask from your uni library or international office, there is numerous software you can get the premium version for free. Don't waste this opportunity, your competition is on a global scale.

5. it's wise to spend your blocked account money with a PETER OBI mindset.

6. You must be intentionally social in DE to enjoy and gain the international student experience in a country like DE. This is because of language and cultural barriers, but if you have attended to point (1) above, you are fine.

7. Covid 19 is over, so you guys would be coming in at a better time than I did. I can't overemphasise that your study is the main reason you are in Germany (at least officially); do well to keep things straight. However, don't miss out on other opportunities, especially travel and continuous learning opportunities (e.g. summer schools, conferences etc.). Some of these continuous learning opportunities are fully funded.
I combine my desire to travel around Europe with learning something new and adding some certificates to my portfolio.
I have since visited Lithuania, Poland, Ireland and other cities in Germany to attend one summer school, workshop or conference. All were fully funded.

8. Build network and friends while in Germany. If this is important to you and your career plans, please consider doing this intentionally. You must be intentional, quiet and wise about it, don't be "standoffish". Germans or say Europeans don't warm up to foreigners quickly, so don't be like that...., its not so deep. I trust you understand what i mean here.

9. In contrast to what you may have heard, appreciate the Nigerian community if you find one in your city. Its a big help in socialising and finding people to argue about NIGERIA occasionally. Your Nigerian community can be of great help. However, do not be petty. Don't bring bad behaviour here. For instance, the Nigerian student community in Darmstadt is lovely, with quality Nigerians who are cool-headed, fun-loving and exciting. We have had many parties that are the pride of black people in this city. We are gracious, LOUD, BLACK, and PROUD.
In summary, we get sense.

10. Appreciate the relationships you are living behind in Nigeria and keep them cordial. Yes, I understand some people feel the need to lock up and ignore people back home. Well, I am not one to tell you how to treat or behave toward your friends. My point is, you may need one or too assistance from family and friends back home. So keeping it cordial is fine. Some may ask you for money because you are now in Europe, where money grows on trees. Well, it's up to you; if you give them that impression, then deal with it: Na, you sabi.

Though, I'm yet to use my Standard Chartered cos I just got the ATM Card delivered yesterday.

SC told me on their Social Media handle that their rate is 470. And I came across someone here on Nairaland who said it's 505.

Until I use it sha

How did it go?

What's the rate?

heybaby12:


It all depends on what you like and what you here for.

I can't be cracking my head for school, plus job and all. I decided to change school and course for something more practical and didn't require much as Maths would have.

Mathematics, Engineering is not beans here mostly when you still want to mix school and work. Some ppl have the brains for it but I don't.

Ps. If you come here and the course is difficult make sure you research very well and change schools before your 3rd semeter to avoid stories that touch.

I changed school in 2019 and I did not regret it. I have finished and finished the same time I would have if I stayed back in my previous school.

Wow!
Thank you very much for this.

Thank you!

Thanks sir, I can't leave my career for a woman. Only a fool will do such especially a rewarding and a demanding career like neurosurgery or other surgical specialty, my specialty is the hardest to get into any where in the world, my hospital accept two neurosurgical residents each year to know how hard it is, what I just need is companionship and I'll do as you say. Thanks sir

Okay, so do you want a lady over there or you want a girl from Nigeria cos I'm available

So because I'm in Tech, some knowledge of IT is required for my current role. However there are several remote roles that that do not require programming knowledge (although to be honest programming roles pay way more than many others). Your sister can consider working as a Virtual assistant, which is basically like a PA role where she can manage things like her employer's calendar (meetings, appointments, Phone calls etc). These pay about $5-$7 per hour for US roles. She'd need some knowledge using basic computer software like Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook. These Virtual Assistants (VA for short) often don't need to have a university degree. They need to be super organised, good at time management, excellent communication skills (written and spoken)

Thank you very much

airsaylongcome:


Don't let your accent deter you although I'm going to be honest that it could. I work in a Customer facing tech role for a US company and get to speak with Americans daily. I was chosen to take that role because the other European and South American colleagues had a "difficult" accent. It's not easy though as some of those Yankee people start thinking of you as a dumbo when they hear an accent. Some say they want to speak with an American straight up. In those cases, I escalate to my American colleagues and give them the back story so they know where to start.

It can also go the other way. You will think you understand American accent until you hear real life Southern US drawl. I swear you no go hear jack. I didn't know when I said "ehn" one time to a client because the accent senior me by far


But there has been some wins sha. I spoke with an American new mum. Her baby was all over her on the background and she was apologising furiously. Told her to put the kid on video and I was making faces for her until she started laughing uncontrollably. I was eventually able to fix the mother's issue. Would you believe she went to my boss to say she just had a wonderful treatment from me and that she would like me to be permanently assigned to her for subsequent engagements. I shock

Hi Airsay!

What are the requirements for these customer facing roles?

Is an Intermediate experience of a programming knowledge needed?

Does it require a Bsc degree?


I need my sis to get one of those roles. She's an undergraduate and the Assu strike...

kayus621:

sorry to ask, I just want to be sure of what you're saying, is it account opening application or account upgrade application, because when I opened my account with standard chartered, my account opening application was processed the following day, but when I tried to upgrade it, it took 3weeks plus before the application was rejected because of unclear documents that I uploaded I just replied again hoping it would work this time around

At what point did you request for a card?

Is it the Instant savings account? Or the regular savings account

qtguru:


Yes he can you should do this following:

1. Create a new email address not associated with any PayPal to this
2. Let him register with his phone number and address and send him the email
3. When you verify, the code will be sent to his number
4. Install the PayPal, log into PayPal on the browser it will tell you to chose an authorization method, choose the app
5. In the App confirm Web Authorization and from there on, only use the app

Normally you can attach PayPal to a bank so you can withdraw to it, but only use the PayPal Wallet and be selling to people who buy PayPal funds.

All the best

Omg!

You are so sweet.

Thank you!

qtguru:
Send us address so we can come to your house and view the file.

Hi qtguru

I have questions concerning the recent paypal you created.

So I have a friend that will be traveling to the UK soon just for holidays.

Uhm... Can he help me create a paypal account during his stay?

remi4ever:

I have no idea. I just have a debit card.

Alright, Thank you.

remi4ever:

I use these cards for online payments. $100 MONTHLY LIMIT

Wow!

The platinum card is above $100 right?

qtguru:


We were discussing something and she insulted me in a way that I knew there was no coming back from, broke it off, She said she was angry and didn't meant it, but she has an explosive anger and besides there were better women so why should I stick it out. very rude something

Update

you won't believe it, she reached out to me on IG but she is blocked, wtf this is what i get for bringing this up


Update 2

Wow I'm blown away she apologised and hasn't had peace because I blocked and ghosted her after what she did. I swear after that day. I didnt have any malice against her. This is an interesting turn of event and weird. I just sent her prayer and moved on because they say I'm messing with an ex.

3 years and the moment I mentioned it , she reaches out to me. Be like say my NL profile don cast

Your pics is in your Profile tho.

remi4ever:

I want to relocate to uyo with my family, we are both software engineers and we need a place that have constant Electricity, so we can work efficiently. Please what areas or estates have constant Electricity in Akwa ibom or uyo. Please I would kindly appreciate your inputs. Thanks guys

That state and darkness is like 5 &6

They've got cheap transportation, good roads but Light? Nah.


People will tell you, Move to Ewet housing, move to Shelter Afrique blah blah blah.

Still same thing.

Nothing like constant light In that state.

The only place I've been to with like 12hrs light is Onitsha But the bad roads, mentality, no fun places etc.

Jerryog:
When it comes to matters of intellect you won't see any lady on this section, because they don't strive to make it.

I think clients these days are skeptical in handling out projects, because of the notion that they can get everything for free from the internet. Some of them would post jobs on upwork only waiting for a free ride.

Oga, make your comments and leave women Alone!

I'm a lady and I know aloooot of women in tech/Web3 they just aren't active on Nairaland.

I've lost jobs because of Nigerian reputation. Freelancers goal in Nigeria is to jump on a freelance visa and work outside the country or outside Lagos and enjoy your money. Those are the options for us
