Career / Re: Your Thoughts On Nigerian Banks Salaries 2021 by Covenant97(m): 10:00pm On Apr 05 |
Good day sir Having gone through this trend from the beginning to this point I must commend your effort and good thoughts toward those seeking for employment opportunities most especially recent graduates like me. But sir I will like u to clarify few things for me based on my current situation. I recently graduated from the university( wrote my final exam last two weeks) and will be going for service soon,but the issue is I will be 28 by the end of my NYSC( no thanks to Covid 19 and ASUU that added two additional years to the time I was suppose to graduate) . I also will be graduating with 2.1 in Accounting not to forget that I possess ND( National diploma) in Accounting(distinction) but prior to me obtaining my BSC I worked with unity bank for 2 years as a DSA( direct sales agent or relationship manager or marketer)with my ND and I have the option to go back as a graduate trainee.My boss insisted that I should come and I am rest assured that I will get in( she is a manager in the bank currently with AM as her grade) all this is due to the good work relationship while working under her as my boss. With the above, I need your insight on how best I can get into Stanbic ibtc ( as that is my target). it is clear that I am not qualified for the graduate trainee position due to age factor. Should I accept the unity bank position after my NYSC then work for few years and jump ship to stanbic as an Experienced hire or I should look out for other positions in stanbic other than the graduate trainee role.. Thank you as u patiently read through this and your insightful opinion there after. richmondefosa: |

@skyview01 your story is quite inspiring. I am also an accounting student but presently in my finals while still maintaining a decent CGPA of 4.something and above . As you have said, the accounting profession is not a money spinner and as such want to ply your path of using my degree to japa. please i would appreciate if you can enlighten me on how to go about it. Preferably, using master degree route. lastly, would u advice i start my ICAN after my degree program in that it might give me certain advantages for a masters abroad. Thank u . Skyview01: |

Thank bro. But the issue of leaving Nigeria is the finance which I don’t have access to. One other alternative would be a scholarship but I don’t have much information on how to go about it especially the free scholarship. While some required I am done with my first degree before applying and other processes. thegooddieyoung: |

Education / Age Factor For Graduate Trainee Job.do I Stand A Chance? by Covenant97(m): 8:32pm On Jun 01, 2023 |
Good evening Nairalanders I write to seek your view on My current situation. I am a final year student in one of the best Federal university in Nigeria(Name withheld) and certainly, will be graduating with a second class upper within the 4 point range CGPA.( I was on a first class cgpa But my cgpa was slashed no thanks to my department I was a victim as well as others) My worry is, I will be 26 years when i eventually write my final paper as a student then come service(NYSC) by then 27 max after service.No thanks to COVID- 19 pandemic and ASUU which engulfed my chances of graduating below the 26 age bracket. In light of the above, Do I stand a chance of securing a graduate trainee position in top multinational organization requesting for 2.1 and above within the age bracket of 26 and below post NYSC,Given that after my service I will be 27. Ps:I am an accounting student and I intend to start my ICAN exam during service. My current CGPA is 4.20 ,resuming for my final year come July this year. |

Career / I Am In A Dilemma..ican Exam Or A Bsc Degree First by Covenant97(m): 8:41am On Feb 02, 2023 |
Good morning Nairalanders. Yesterday, myself and the husband to my cousin sister (both and their kid just relocated to the United state on the 25th of December last year) had a chat via WhatsApp therein a conversation came in where he asked if I have started ICAN (I am an accounting student currently in level 300 second semester with a cgpa of 4.45 in one the top federal university in Nigeria) of which I replied “No” Thereafter, he advice I should start now that he will personally take up all the expenses till I qualified after I must have make enquiry and give a report to him on the process and cost of registration.But the issue is this, * I plan on starting during NYSC as I am almost done with my degree and moreover,I don’t see myself qualifying before I graduate so I see no reason to want to start this journey. * The extra work load this would have on me combining a degree program with it, is something I am not ready to handle at this point. * lastly, starting now will means commencing from foundation level. Although ,I have a National diploma certificate from kaduna polytechnic with a distinction in accounting as this might allow me to start from ATS 3 given that the polytechnic I graduated from is ICAN accredited... The above are the reason behind me not wanting to start this ICAN journey which I plan on telling him.. The caveat here is,I do not want him to start seeing me as being unserious or non appreciative of the fact that he is ready to help me and here I am giving him excuses. I believe this would be a win situation for both parties cos I will be more prepared and focus if I am to write the exam when I want to(during NYSC) saving him money and time Compared to failing as a result of being force to start the exam now Couple with other factors I have pointed out above... What’s would you suggest I do in this position. |

Career / ICAN Tutorial Center by Covenant97(m): 9:27pm On Jun 30, 2022 |
Good day Nairalanders, Please I am soliciting for your help regarding where I can locate any good but recognized ICAN tutorial center in suleja,Niger state...I know they are lots of them in Abuja but considering the transport fair and stress of commuting from kaduna road to Abuja which is inside town would not be easy... I took a decision yesterday to start my ICAN journey starting from ATS 3(cos I have National diploma from a ICAN accredited institution, which would allow me exemptions) given that ASUU is on strike and the FG are not ready to solve the on-going strike and also I have become really bored at home, so I need something to challenge myself, so I believe ICAN would do that....and moreover time is going and I wanted to get busy with my life...since ASUU and FG are toying with our future as a student in this country... PS I am an accounting student currently in level 3 in the university having completed my National diploma in accountancy from kaduna federal polytechnic with honors 3 years ago. This would be my first ICAN tryout, so any suggestions, tips and advice on how to make this ATS journey a success would be appreciated.... |

Career / Is ICAN As It Is Now Overrated by Covenant97(m): 11:56am On Jun 25, 2022 |
Good day fellas!! Early this morning I log into my LinkedIn account and on my newsfeed I saw series of congratulatory messages and inspiring quotes from peeps on the ICAN results that just got released... Although, I was happy for them, at least it’s time to enjoy the reward of their handwork and investment paid off...but while on this, my mind was troubled not for bad reasons though, but in that the number of graduating chartered accountant are way high in there numbers and some student still in school are veering to get chartered as well...with this in mind I began to question myself if ICAN as it is today is still worth it or just overrated given the basic law of demand and supply...more chartered accountant plunging into the system with few but highly competitive job around..what does the future hold for this peeps...... Conversely, began to notice that most people who became chartered and those who are one day looking forward to be one are doing for The grams, to feel among, to impress friends and family that they are smart as most saw that only a genius can pass the exam according to them.... The craze to feel counted and ego boosted( not all though) has made the profession too saturated leading most accountant unemployed or underpaid( the ones who saw it as their career life goals).... With this in mind is the ICAN journey a worthy to embark on( for who who are yet to, myself inclusive) or is it just overrated... Ps on the level of difficulty attach to the exam how true is it.. for those who has written... I have seen and come across peeps who brag about its difficulty in a bid to make themselves special and downplay the efforts of others who had failed in the exam... this is particularly common among the current crop of ACA... It there a secret or special kind of strategy and approach one need to know or failed to know that makes the ICAN look as if it’s only surmountable by the genius alone.... I come in peace...... 11 Likes 3 Shares |

Education / Is A First Class Still Possible With My Current CGPA by Covenant97(m): 3:49pm On Jun 02, 2022 |
Good day Nairalanders, My current CGPA is 4.40,and I am in level 300 currently first semester studying Accounting, which is a 4 year course. Graduating with a first class has been my goal ever since I got into the university via direct entry( graduated with distinction as the overall best in my set, Kadpoly accounting). But lately I have lost the motivation to put in the work to achieve my goal due to the delay in academic session caused by the incessant strike action, covid 19 and what not,but I still harbor the desire to graduate with a first class but just too lazy and unmotivated a-times to pick up my books and study. My question is, would a first class still be possible? And if yes Any advice and easy/smart method that I can deploy to achieve this goal would be greatly Appreciated. Also for anyone who has experience this and has successfully scaled through this ordeal, your advice is also welcomed. Ps I am a kind of person that don’t love reading for reading sake,but I don’t like failure and I work smart in such a way that can get me the result I wanted...( I don’t cheat nor pay to pass cause that’s impossible in my school)I am never an efico. I just want to do well and be counted among the best... Thank you. 2 Likes |
