RomanceRe: The Rich Guy Or The 'not Rich Guy'? by cloud9usher: 11:11pm On Oct 06, 2015
How does someone "mistakenly" get pregnant pls?

She was just walking around and accidentally and mistakenly fell on his erect magic stick right?

Its just so clear the rich guys riches in the point of attraction here, for her and her family so she should follow her money hungry eyes and accept the rich guy, after all she is pregnant for him.

Its pretty much like when an average guy calls a rich guys who spends on his gf a mugu... a wicked guy who will beat and serial cheat on his girlfriend...a ritualist or armed robber or yahoo yahoo boy, simply because the guy has what he doesn't have cheesy

Oooh and an average guy will always discourage ladies from dating a rich guy... Apparently he is not capable of loving since he is already made grin you have to suffer with him first, like they so in nollywood movies if you want the love to be real grin grin grin
Dude, your statement is so off point! Totally!

EducationRe: Why You Must Finish With At Least A 2.1 by cloud9usher: 2:38pm On Sep 11, 2014
Olutola88, nice write-up, first and foremost I'd like to unequivocally agree that a 2:1 gives you an edge over the 2:2 graduates especially for shortlisting purposes. Most graduate trainee programs have a minimum of 2:1 as their requirement. But then I can tell you that for a graduate position which needs 5 people for the job, you would conveniently have up to 1,000 2:1 graduates applying, that's where the 2:1 needs something more striking to get you the job.

Now to 2:2 graduates, I'd advise folks in this category to add a proven competency other than your 2:2 grade to make you shine in the eyes of an employer. I'd use myself as an example, I polished my writing skills, my diction and communication skills. Weeks before finishing NYSC, I wrote a proposal to a top multinational firm, attached my CV and a cover letter, I got an invite for an interview, just minutes into the interview the HR manager said... "I love your diction!" ...Your proposal was an excellent idea, I just wanted to hear you talk."
And as you guessed right, I got the job! Mind you, I graduated with a 2:2

Apart from your 2:1 or 2:2, every employer respects "IDEAS" over a certificate. I have a very good job today because I sold an idea to my employer.


Another option for 2:2 graduates is to add a professional certification to your certificate to give your CV some shine, go for Internationally recognised certifications in your profession, the likes of CISA, CISCO, NEBOSH, PMP, etc. If that's far reached you can go for certification from Nigerian Institutes, the likes of ICAN, Nigerian institute of Management, Chattered institute of Personnel Management and others.

I bet you that a 2:2 with CISA or ORACLE 11g would beat a 2:1 graduate to a job. A 2:1 just gives you a better chance over the 2:2 graduates for the case of Graduate trainee programs, how many jobs do Graduate trainee programs offer? VERY FEW!


And lastly, Dear OP- Olutola88, intuitively I'd assume the "88" in your username points to your year of birth, that makes you 26 at least by the end of this year, that's a big disadvantage for most graduates even if you had a 2:1, if you are a fresh graduate and seeking for a good job in a top private firm and your age has hit 26 your chances are VERY slim. That's the sad truth, I know a lot of folks with 2:1 who have suffered from this.


My last words to everyone is this ...Hustle hard!! If you made 2:1 make sure it works for you, if you got a 2:2 acquire extra skills and competences to convince an employer that you are competent enough. All the best everyone!
