Travel / Re: Nigerians In Oslo, Norway by Brunel(m): 12:29pm On Nov 18, 2022
I need urgent help.
Norway universities are asking for applicant to upload OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPTS meanwhile Nigerian Universities only give Student copies of transcript to students and not official transcript.
How can one solve this issue?
Any advise is appreciated.

Family / Re: How Do I Apologize To My Wife? by Brunel(m): 1:36pm On Feb 04, 2022
I cringed reading this!
Pearls have been given to dog!
gazeup1:
I created this new handle to hide my identity.

I got married 11 years ago. We both started working before we got married, but my salary was way above my wife's own. I was earning 195k while she was on 108k when we got married, after my MSC, I was promoted and started to earn 350k, this got to me and I started to misbehave, I was doing all sorts and would insult the hell outa her. As the cry cry girl, she would cry, and thereafter I would hear her praying. At times she would say she will one day be greater than me. That to me was an impossibility.

I can't even remember ever giving her money for home keep but we never lacked food at home (we delayed before having kids, so I don't see the need for me to give her monthly money and she never asked). I started giving her after we had kids. She agreed when I told her her money was for the home and mine for investment, but I never included her name in my properties. she knows this as well.

After our kids, it became very demanding, coupled with her office not increasing her pay, she resigned, and that was when I felt the impact of her income. Meanwhile, her pay was reduced to about 80k and mine was increased to like 600k as at when she resigned. In one month I started asking her to return back to her work as to me I was not ready to foot her bills, she never even asked for money, she would even say what I gave her is left 5k or more self at the end of the month.

Now her new journey - When I started disturbing about going back to her former office or getting a new job, she said never and asked me to stop giving her money but go to market to buy food myself. In less than 4 months to her resignation she started talking about online job here and there, I thought it was a scam so I warned her. One day, I was in the office when she said she needs me to help her wit the best laptop to buy, I tried to talk her down on buying one but she ended the call on me.

I got home to see her with a new laptop. fast forward, she paid for a training on how work from home without my knowledge, got her first job of about $200, I also washed her down on going that low for such an amount but she said it was better than her former 80k job, before I knew it, she started talking about $1,000, now it's $3,000, to $4,000 monthly. I earn lower than #1M, my wife gets over #2M monthly working from home. She helped me finished my house project, very transparent and would not hide any $ she earns.

I have not been able to forgive myself of all the things I did to her, the insults, talking down on her but in a way I think I pushed her to become who she is now. I remembered when she asked back then to open a joint account with her, I laughed her to scorn, like how would the ratio be. she saved over 6M and credited my account with everything, just for us to complete our home. I can't even produce 1M.

She doesn't seem hurt, but sometimes she reminds me of those words, I have never officially told her sorry neither have I really changed because I am just like that, I don't mean evil. I wanted her to braze up and never stay low.

Married, men, please how do I ask for her forgiveness? I don't think we have up to 2% of her type out there.

I have stopped buying petrol from all Total Filling Stations
houseontherock:
I just check meter reading, that's all. Check to see the attendant rubs off the last reading-especially if a napep or bike has just bought fuel of 500 or less because they sometimes start from there and if you're buying like 3,000 fuel or thereabouts, you may not notice. As per the nuzzle returning my fuel, that's not something I can help if it still shows the correct amount on their machine! We really need to watch the unnecessarily jovial attendant because truly he/she will mostly cheat you...it happened to me at a Total filling station.

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Path To Big 4: A Course that Eases Getting Jobs in PwC, KPMG, Deloitte, EY by Brunel(m): 9:06am On May 11, 2021
This is a great service and one that is worth it if what is said matches what is done.
Well done and I will be looking to sponsor someone in this course soon.
JARUSHUB:
JarusHub is Nigeria’s top career resources firm. Over the past 8 years, we have established ourselves as Nigeria’s top career information and guidance outfit. Our knowledge of Corporate Nigeria is unrivalled and this is evidenced by the quality of information we share and the calibre of people that associate with us. The products of our interview coaching programmes are all over top companies in Nigeria and beyond.

We present to you our latest programme, PATH TO BIG 4.

Path to Big 4 is a 3 month intensive virtual course that prepares you for your journey to working in a Big 4 firm.

What are Big 4 firms?

Big 4 (KPMG, PwC, Deloitte and Ernst & Young) are a global network of firms that offer professional services like auditing/accounting, advisory/consulting and taxation. They are some of the best brands in the world.

Why Big 4?

We have a general graduate finishing service, but this course is specifically designed for Big 4 because of the some peculiarities of Big 4 and because of our very strong experience in coaching candidates for Big 4 having coached over 50 candidates for interviews and assessment centres of these firms in the past 6 years, some of our past candidates have even risen to become Managers.

Specifically, this programme is designed for Big 4 job because:

- Big 4 firms have one of the most merit-driven recruitments processes in Nigeria. There is a very high chance of a son or daughter of nobody getting job there – with right information and preparation for their recruitment process. We are confident the preparation you’re getting from us will count

- Big 4 firms recruit from time to time, at least once in a year. So you get to see opportunity to test what you have learnt from us within a short time.

- The Big 4 is a global brand. We advise people to go start their career there. Having them on your CV can help your career, locally and internationally. In fact, some companies specifically ask for Big 4 experience when recruiting. This course is a way of helping you achieve your dream of starting your career in great firms.

How is this course structured?

Over 3 months,

- You will learn about the Big 4 and their services
- We will review your skills and strengths with you and advise you on which of their career divisions (Tax, Audit or Advisory) you will fit into
- We will sharpen your knowledge of the things (eg industry trends, communication skills, presentation skills) that would be helpful to acing their recruitment assessment
- You will be given assignments, tasks and relevant reading materials to help you in developing your Big 4 fitness
- You will have sessions with former Big 4 professionals in your field for helpful information and mentoring on Big 4 recruitment and subsequent career
- We will thoroughly prepare you for Big 4 interviews – teaching you the common questions asked and how to answer them, how to analyse a given case study, your strength you can leverage in the recruitment process, etc
- We will have mock interview and assessment centre sessions with you to test your preparedness. The mock session will look close to the actual Big 4 interview and we will give you feedback on areas you need to improve on etc
- The session will run for 3 months with 2 hours virtual session every other weekend. In between, you will be given assignments and relevant material to read and give feedback. You will also be tested.

After Course Support

We will retain the database of all enrollees for this programme and share with them Big 4 recruitment advert anytime one comes up. We will also coach you FOR FREE whenever you get invited for their job interview.

Who should enrol?

- Final year students (this is the best early preparation you can have for post-school career)
- NYSC corps members
- Unemployed graduates
- Employed graduates dreaming to move to Big 4

Does age matter?

PwC and EY have removed age restriction on their entry level recruitment criteria while others are still considering age. Deloitte and KPMG use 27 and 26 respectively. So even if you are already above 27, you can still enrol for this course as you still have a chance with PwC and EY. If below 27, even better, as you have a chance with all four. But we generally advise that only under-30s should consider this investment.

Can an HND holder apply?

All but KPMG accept HND. So HND holders that can withstand the recruitment competition with degree holders stand a chance. So HND holders can also enrol for this preparatory course.

Does grade matter?

As things currently stand, the chance of being shortlisted for their recruitment process is very slim, probably nil, without a minimum of 2:1 or Upper Credit.

Must you be a graduate of accounting or management courses?

No, you don’t have to be a graduate of accounting. Big 4 recruit graduates of any field inasmuch as you made a 2:1. Go to LinkedIn and check the profiles of people that work in KPMG, PwC, EY and Deloitte, you will see graduates of just any course – accounting, economics, political science, geology, chemical engineering, just any course. Any smart well prepared person can get a job there, but you have to be ready to have a career in taxation, accounting, auditing, management consulting/advisory, HR, IT consulting etc.

Fee

Students: N25,000

NYSC/Pre-NYSC: N30,000

Post-NYSC: N32,000

payable before the commencement of the programme. In exceptional circumstances, we can accept 70% payment before the first class and balance payable before the end of first month.

Sponsorship

We strongly advise uncles/aunts and well-heeled individuals to consider sponsoring students for this. From our experience, having this training before graduating makes a lot of difference in ease of finding job post-school. Shorten someone’s stay in the labour market by sponsoring your poor nieces/nephews or friend’s children. You can as well sponsor selected students of the departments you graduated from as a way of giving back. You can also sponsor young graduates in your community or other social and religious circles.

Duration

Course runs for 3 months. Quickly enrol for the next class.

A stitch in time saves nine

To enrol, please send an email to jarushub@gmail.com with the title “Path to Big 4” or call/send a message to 08085404500
