I really don't know much about cars or business here for now. I have been to an Auto Haus once and the cars I saw there were about the range of 8000 euros upwards.

Owning a car is not a problem for them here, because they massively produce cars and people get them on contract. Used cars aren't that common like it is in USA.

One thing you should note about Germany is that, there are not a lot of used things flying around like USA where used phones, laptops and the likes are like pure water .

Here, they prefer to keep their things or when they sell it, it is somewhat expensive to even think of sending to Nigeria and sell.

As an international student from outside EU, you're nit allowed to freelance or own a business.

Thank you bro

freestylebony:
I pray so o... I will be having their test in u. i on the 21st

Alright, Good luck

Braket:
Thank you for the drama that happened while I was away. It was fun reading it and really eased my stressful week

I think it's safe to say that making one Euro here in Germany no be beans at all, coming from Nigerian work experience.

No time for playing.


Remember I mentioned how a journey of an hour turned to 4 stressful hours last week? The fact that I needed to pick something at home and head out again?

Well I was going home to pick my safety boot for a night shift I had. Little did I know I have not expressed the greatest stress yet.

Getting home to pick the safety boot and heading out again, I had no time to rest.

In short, I started the night shift work in a biscuit factory from 10pm to 6am.

What I did basically was packing 5 biscuits into a big pack, then send it to a taping machine and it rolls off to logistics department.

All these were done while standing.

I had to be fast because the biscuits won't stop coming so speed was need.
I was battling with a lot of things, the stress I expressed during the day, back pain, leg pain, hand pain, the pain of not closing my eyes since 5am that I work up.

In my mind, I was just cursing the owner of the biscuit factory and the day I showed interest in the job.

Shebi I said time was fast in Germany, nah line oh. The time is freaking slow when you have to work while standing.

Immediately my supervisor announces 5 minutes Pause, I dash out of the freaking place. But at that moment, the time gets faster and I report back to work.

In short, I worked myself out on Saturday and had to sleep all through Sunday, starving at some point.


Morale of the story .
When you hear the pay, it makes sense in naira. But please don't be fooled, everything goes back to the system.

If you have the mentality of coming to Germany to hustle with student visa, these are the kind of unskilled blood sucking jobs you will get and trust me, you will surely grow old very fast. And the painful part, half of your money goes back to the government who in turn pay them to their senior citizens and those without jobs that end up using it to smoke cigarette and drink beer, and still hate you for being black.

Funniest part, one will think a lot of people working these jobs will be foreigners. Nah lie oh, most of them are citizens.
This I think is the main reason they need skilled works and thereby making their education free to bring in people to fill the space.

Person wey get head no get cap.

Can one do business there while schooling like buying and selling or even exporting of goods I guess that would be illegal with the student visa, but can it work

Braket:
That is the main problem. Working this kind of jobs makes the day wasted

Cars d cheap for Germany Please can you find out for me. More so, aside cars, what other business opportunity can one harness in exporting from Germany or bringing in? I heard afro food stuffs cost there too

freestylebony:

study?..... Someone should answer please

How do you want to be answer Like what do you want us to say Lol, una d try with questions o

UbiPetrus:
Thanks, guys.

I actually went to my school to get this letter and someone in the Registrar's office said I must pay 20k into the School's microfinance bank and so I got confused.

Permit me to ask again, does it cost a thing to get this letter or is someone trying to play a fast one on me?

My school UNN charges 5k and you are to pay through remittal platform. If you have the money, pay into the account sharperly

UbiPetrus:
Guys, please, which University authority can issue letter of English language proficiency?

Treat as urgent, please.

The same authority that issued your transcript.

*My school tho*

Pervic:
I applied immediately dey started reg. Got admission letter May 9. I applied with English Language Proficiency Letter

Alright, is well

Please all, disregard my earlier rant on Nipost not improving, I was incoherent. They have really done well, didn't know my documents don reach as I expect am. You can confidently do business with them

Pervic Congrats, I am waiting for the same school on health informatics. When did they give you admission and what time did you apply? Did you apply with TOEFL cert? Thanks

Rhomio:
If any of your document is issued in Nigeria, just make sure you legalized it from the German consulate in Nigeria, else it won't be accepted by the German embassy in Benin Republic.

Alright bro

Kenthumphz:
You can't always eat your cake and have it

Meaning it must be in French? I learnt you can ask your vo to change your language to English or German if your country official language is other than the 2. Hmmm

Highbeeyajibola:
Are you a citizen of cotonou

No, must i be a citizen before I can be interviewed in their embassy I don't think so sha, but need more clarification

Mamtobs:
Yes, a Waec scratch card is part of the required documents.

You can get it for 1,000 at Wema bank or Waec office. Or you can get it from cyber cafes or shops around Waec office. The scratch card is not difficult to get, Just make enquiries in your area and you'll definitely find a place to get it

Thank you very much

Kenthumphz:
When you have the admit, plead with the school to change your address to that of your Cotonou address.

All the best

Ok, that means is possible. I hope the requirements for the cotonou embassy won't be different from ours I hope i will be allowed to communicate with English for the interview, cos cotonou official language na french o.
Thanks my man

Hope is possible to apply for interview with the Benin republic embassy with my 2nd family cotonou address though my admission address will bear Nigeria Is there any problem with that

PS; am asking considering the problem of fully booked dates and early enrollment that many experienced last winter. My head full now, Kai!

Mamtobs please is it compulsory to present WAEC pin to the embassy even when you have the original cert? Please how much and where is the scratch card sold?

dailydolar:

DAramis:
Your plan of schooling in Germany is still on course right? I would like us to connect. Might need your help one day.

Sent you a pm.

Alright sir, seen

DAramis:
A wise man once said that if you fail to plan, you definitely plan to fail.
Though it is good to have expectations, but it should not be to high.

It is better to make a modest plan while reaching there, positive things might come up leading to overshoot of your expectations.


With all due respect bro, your plan is a good one but be modest in your expectations. Hopefully, it will turn out good. We also seek such opportunity for studies sha

Thanks for your understanding
