While directing everyone to apply to consol, you should also tell them they will be required to pay 70k+ for cc certification and training before they can start work.
I did the written and oral interview last month and I passed only to be told that we will be required to take training and certification for 70k before we can start work... who does that? For a job of 38k/month.
I was later called for the last interview but I decided not to go knowing fully well I have no 70k to pay for one foolish certificate cos of a useless job of 38k/month...
Jobseekers shld wise up

deGovernor2024:
Good morning fellow house members.

I'm sorry to be back here again but things are deteriorating seriously for me here. My family is falling apart. My wife and kids are worse hit of this my joblessness.

Sequel to this post https://www.nairaland.com/2862636/why-everyone-cares-when-too

Many nairalandlers responded with words of encouragement and advice.

That aside, I have submitted over 150 applications both online and offline and received 4 invitations in all, attended all and yet no call up.

Please brothers and sisters I'm not here for financial assistance or for you to pity me but I'm here because I need a job to take care of my family which already falling apart.

My joblessness had bring untold hardship to me and my family. Yesterday I received the worst humiliation in my life I was dragged out of a BRT because I couldn't pay N100 and many people were looking at me. I tried to controlled my emotions but still I had to cried out my heart in secret.

This is me that used to help people a year ago now my friends and family members won't pick my calls again.

Some moments ago I was just staring at a fan hook. And thots of taking my life kept on creeping in. Please I'm dieing inside of me. I need a job.

Please I'm not a begger and I find it so humiliating to beg because it's absurd since I can work. All I'm asking you my fellow members especially Mr Seun and mods to please put this on front page who knows maybe my helper will be the there waiting.

Please save a soul

My details and pictures are in the above mentioned thread.

I need a job please.

Please oh i also need a place to stay or someone to split bills with. I currently work around Eleganza bus stop, so the place in question has to be around Ajah or Sangotedo. Thank you

Should I change to 'female' now...hmmmm.... Nothing yet from the 'supervisors' end...

Apart from the job concern, which is looking positive, I really have great need for a living space (where I can put my head): so I am also thinking long term as well, beyond my immediate desperate "NEED". Though I've seen several houses around, given the amount, the necessity of paying bi-yearly or yearly, exorbitant agent fees, bills and all, I opted for this post (preferably bills split monthly).

-Anyone, Someone!?

Tungsten:
Is the job still available? I am very interested and I reside in Agege. I just finished my National Diploma

longlife101:
I am currently on "a month" contract which may be renewed at MayFair Gardens. Please do You Have A living Space/Apartment and want to Share? -we can split bills.

If the contract is renewed by March, I may get my place or continue as you may see fit.

Urgent response will be appreciated.

Ps: I am a great guy, you may choose to arrange a meeting first to ascertain this. Thank you in advance!

Is there anyone here who wrote the ec&ws test on jan 7/8? Please have you been notified for the next stage.. i'm still waiting for result.

Philadelphia:
[size=20pt]The one big question has always been "Did they force you to go for a HND programme?"[/size]

When others wrote JAMB and passed it, why did you not write/ fail/ meet the cutoff? Since you can always go back to school, or convert your HND to a degree, I don't see the need for your ranting

#bittertruth

segcelona:
I just left now.. If you are BSc holder don't bother yourself.. I wasted 3k already yesterday and today all the way from epe, it's only HND for now.. Gl07.. There's nothing like BSc for now from Der staff... BSc dats got screen yesterday was a mistake

Who send them! I remember participating in the first MTN half marathon in 2002. While on Ahmadu Bello way one guy just change his running course and started heading towards the beach, it took the intervention of people around who got hold of him and tied him with rope.

I got a call from one of the telecom companies yesterday afternoon regarding an application I put in as far back as November last year. Anyway... Fast-forward to the interview. I woke up very early and prayed, cleanup and get set. Tho I'm a self employed software developer but who wouldn't want to work with a big telecom company or any government offer? I applied for Web Developer position and when I got there... I met about 5 other applicants; it took forever for the GM to show up since the HR teams said they can't proceed with interview without the authority of the GM. Since 8:30am when I got there... The GM didn't show up until 12:15pm...Well, I still didn't mind cuz I was enjoying the AC and free WiFi. All thanks to the front desk lady who gave me the WiFi password I was already crushing on the bae and hoping to y'knw get close once I get employed haha .... OK... Fast forward to GM arrival.
The GM checked the list of invitees and gave the HR greenlight to interview us. We were given a very technical online timed test and somehow it was just 2 out of 6 of us that made it to the interview stage cuz after the test, they told me and one other dude to wait behind while they told the other guys that they appreciate their interest blah blah blah we will call u talks (discharging them)
The HR team interviewed the last 2 standing and we both made it past the interview stage and then we were taken to the GM's office for final stage.

GM: Oh just two of you made it here...

Me & Guy: Yes sir

GM: Ok so do you have any past projects done by You? I want to see your past works on Web Development.

Guy: I didn't come along with my flash drive sir, I was hoping we would have our competency tested on company's system.

Me:.... Silent as I watch guy trying to bail himself out of the rope thrown to his neck!

GM: Oh you are not serious... You mean you never have a thought of coming along with you past projects? You wanted to convince us verbally? Oh no we don't work like that here... Go get your past project and come back next time.

(that leaves me as the last man standing meanwhile I have turned on my laptop and started digging out all the websites I built for people and all Web application jobs I ve done in the past from Java to php to ASP. Net and html css)

GM: Young man I see you are all set to present your competency. Let me see what you have to offer

Me: moved closer to his desk and showed him my works and he was quiet impressed. He called someone from the software support department to come and check me out and the dude asked me alot of questions you wouldn't know if you are not used to Web applications development just to know if I am truly who I say I am.

GM: Ok we have an on going project and I'll be glad if you can assist the software support department in executing the project cuz we don't have time.

Me: It'll be my honor sir. I have always have passion for software development and it would be a plus to exhibit my capability for this company

GM: so I'm sure you want big money for salary now

Me: I care more about skills and experience sir. Money will come anyway

GM: (he became very free and less official) We actually need 2 people but with your works so far I'm sure you can do both jobs cuz we need graphic designer and Web Developer and most of your websites comes with photoshopped graphic designs with the slides. I hope the owner of those jobs paid you well. You must be a big man ooo

Me: (Felt comfortable and lose guard my official mode thinking we were just gisting). Most of those clients don't pay me good, I didn't enjoy working for them

(Na so the man change everything for me and everything went 360 in a blink of an eye)

GM: Haha so that's how you will say someday that our company don't pay good and u don't enjoy working for us...

(Well, the rest is history...) he already had the Secretary preparing my employment papers so I can start on Monday but he halted everything and called the HR department in front of me informing them to source for a new Web Developer. The rest is history...

Lesson : Regardless how excited or confident you feel during a job interview, Do NOT EVER EVER tarnish your past employers or clients even if they made you go thru hell, just lie that you enjoyed them and wish you were still there....

Well I came back home in A very depressed mood and I thought I should help a potentially vulnerable person not to make such mistake.

I hope I feel a bit better after pouring my heart out.


I believe the job is not meant for u. At the same time it's a lesson to ill-talk of your employers irrespective of your experience.

It is well bro, better jobs ahead
