Talkisneeded: What kind of advice is this.. In which economy?? With what capital?? Bro no vex about my outburst, I'm also tired about the situation of this country.. It's an endless pit,only the bravest among the brave will survive this tsunami
Don't mind those mumu that'll saying start a business. Someone that hasn't been paid for over a year, where he wan see money start business. Na stone he'll use as capital abi
Can you see you're not alone. At least u have 16k to your name while I've 85k loan debt, 37k debt for my son sch fee, 66k balance for house rent, and 10k palmpay debt. With less than 5k in my acct. So, tell me, are u d one to end it or me? Be strong bro
Ororocelemi: Pls don't, try teaching or get assistance from your church if you're a Christian Pls don't end it, you will tell your story in future. One day everybody go touch money
God bless you jare. I saw people telling him to end. They never know how pain. That's not the best way to approach such case coz they don't know what he's going through. I've been there b4 and still there that's why I understand how it feel to have no hope of getting money to settle bills and take care of family
Gadafii: Shey be na sand he go pack go learn skills na
While it might not to be too late to learn skills, I think it absolute not the right decision for anyone struggling to eat to venture into skill acquisition, such person needs at least a source of income to hold body and soul together, before he thinks of learning skills
I wonder o. Na so so go learn a skill dem go dey shout. Truly, learning a skill is the best but before he go learn finish, where him go see money take dey chop
2Radii: Na because say u never marry na hin make u think say the difference hardly shows...
Come and ask me, for the past five days now a no get appetite even my woman con dey ask me why a no gree chop, I saw a no dey feel hunger
No be say food no dey, no be say a no get money to manage for now BUT THE FEAR OF UNKNOWN is what I am battling with as I am quiting my job by this month ending..
May God help us we married men. I got a lot of challenges. A civil engineering graduate working for 30k monthly spending over 50% on transportation. Depressed and tired of everything. I'm quitting the job tomorrow being the last day of the month. I just want to start afresh to know my bearing coz I've lost direction. May God help us all
buchionwuazor: The guy that scammed me today is a nairaland user named jahzara, please beware of this criminal the account number below is the one he use to scam others, and a photo is attached of our conversation today Kingsley Ugochukwu O 9071252751 Monie point cc seun , davide470, mukina2.
You totally lossguard bro https://www.nairaland.com/7972631/jahzara-scammer Check that link. Posted as far back as 2 weeks ago. Claiming he'll give you federal govt job. People mentioned him for his scam act and mod will not see this to block him but they'll block people if you are talking fact. Useless mods
Good evening Nairalanders I've once post here and talk about how badly I need job. I've seek for help all around but no help coming Someone told me about Animal care at Ogere. I wanted to ask about there pay. I want to work there as a casual. At least I'll be getting some change to take care of my family and also to pay my sch fees So, if anyone work there or know about there payment as a casual worker should please tell me so that I'll know what I'm going to face over there
mosho2good: I almost fall victim last night if not because of my wife that said I should ask him to screenshot the federal government form job for me to see before I pay, today line this I would have been saying stories that touches the heart
May God not let us meet scammers. They are devils Let keep our hope alive though it's really hard. I'd a 2 years old son too, taking care of him and his mother isn't easy at all but I know God will surely make a way for us soon
mosho2good: In this job hunting someone even has to be careful like the guy in the comments section that said he has federal government job and I message him last night and and he even send me someone's number to call to confirm the job and the next thing he said I'm going to buy a form for the job which I don't understand, in federal government job are they selling form and later ask him to screenshot the form for me to see which he his unable to show me that his wasting his time chatting me around 10:30 last night. I pray favor locate us this year, it really not easy.
I'm suspecting the guy as well. He has sent hundred of messages to people asking them to message him on WhatsApp that he has fed govt job for them How can he be thinking of defrauding people that are looking for job. He'll never know peace together with his generation
mosho2good I hope u find a job soon The trauma and decline in mental health that attached to looking for job for long without getting one isn't a joke I'm also a graduate and I studied civil engineering, graduate since 2015, complete my service year in 2016 me right now I don't have a job I've walk around, search online, and do a lot of things I need to do just to secure a job but all in vain. Sometimes I wish death take me away but I can't use my own hands to kill myself. Depression is real and that's what I'm going through right now. Though stays in Ibadan I'm very sorry about the guy that made a bad comment that made u loss the opportunity that was about to be offered to you Not everyone here on Nairaland are scams especially those looking for job I'll rather beg for job than beg for money. So, if you are in a position to help us out to get a job, we'll surely appreciate it
Oh. U miss bro I was dere today, I guess they are paying big coz mere looking at there workers, you'll know they're all living well Are you base in Ibadan? And which role did u apply for

Location- ore lope ,ekute Quarters, Ado-Ekiti. Interested person should quote me so I can give the principal's number. Mind u, I'm a staff in the school.
Help me find out if they need maths or physics teacher
BALLOSKI: Eyaaa... You just have to be there for her.
Is there no tech skill that allows you to work remotely that you can learn?
Are you still in school? Thought you said you served already? I saw you going back to KWASU in your writeup.
I really don't have a tech skills. It's a HND to B.Eng conversion. It's called top-up program. It's one of the requirements for one to be a registered Engineer. I don't have any idea on how to work remotely
TheGift: How can you live your life based on hoping for better days? Don’t you know that you have more control over your outcomes than anyone else? For 30k (our cleaner earns 62.5k for 4 days and we are wondering how she is coping and how to increase it significantlly) Don’t let your current state mAke you see 30k as something. It is nothing but money to barely live. But you can make it something. Warren buffet says ,and I agree ,that anyone who is poor has a better chance of breaking the cycle of poverty if they become entrepreneurs than if they just get a job to get by. Think of something you can do with 1% or 10% of that 30k, grow it to 30k and keep repeating the process as your money grows. Within 6 months you might be able to pay yourself 30k a month and still keep the business growing. That is how most millionaires and billionaires make money. And many of them started from nothing.
If you need more clarity and direction , feel free to reach out. (FYI: I am not selling anything)
You're much more predictable than you think. Your story seems to be a plea for a new job rather than advice. I think you want your request for advice to teach the front page so that you can field job offers.
If that's your intention, I can hardly fault your motives. But your strategy is missing a key ingredient: value.
In your write-up, all you've stated is what you're looking for. So far, it seems the only value ( that you offer your current employer ) is worth 30K.
You're yet to articulate the value anyone would benefit from you when they hire you. Can you bring in revenues worth ten times your expected salary? Do you have skills that can translate into cost savings worth ten times your wages?
Why would any organisation want to hire you? I'll be honest, from my personal experience, most of my HR problems have stemmed from hiring men in their mid thirties who have degrees, not skilled and yet too old to follow instructions from bosses younger than them.
So here's my advice:
First, don't be quick to leave your current job. If you have time, I'll advice you to listen to this conversation about a contract banker earning 70K who quit his job. Learn from his experience what not to do.
Second, what tangible income-earning, revenue-driving, and/or cost savings skills can you acquire in your current job. I came across this conversation aimed at recent graduates on nairaland. If you can patiently listen beyond the first 7-10 minutes, it should provide advice that is relevant to your job situation.
Third, if you're an engineer, you should be going to conferences: engineering, energy, power, infrastructure and building conferences. That's where you will find new opportunities and meet employers in emerging engineering fields. Again, here's a video to show how that process could look like.
I know things might seem hard at the moment, but I really wish you the best and hope that things work out well for you.
Cheers.
Thanks a lot sir. I really appreciate. I swear to God, the bolded was totally wrong. I never even thought of begging for jobs online, rather looking for advice on the next step to take as depression is eating me up I'll go through the YouTube video. Thanks so much sir
zebszebs: If I understand your writeup, you are currently being sponsored in school, I will advise you to complete it and leave the country, by any means, just leave.
I wish I can leave but I don't have 5k in my account currently
