Bro..it is God that blesses the work of a man's hands. Never think because you have gained knowledge, you deserve more. Realise that all you can ever have is gonna be given to you by God. God is the one that lifts up servants and causes them to ride on horses. Hardwork and gaining skills is very critical, but more than that is trusting in God totally. He is the only one that can lift you up. Never give up bro..
Be ready to start small and pour your heart into whatever little you are doing, even if it is doing home lessons for students where they pay you 15k a month. If you get 3 of those students, that is 45k and can take care of your very basic needs. Keep friends that help you grow, show you opportunities and never give up on you. And never give up on yourself bro..your are so close to your breakthrough. You only need to have and maintain the right attitude. My friend applied to Andela several times and he finally got in..Those guys are always recruiting. Here is another job opening.
https://teamapt.com/careers/job-openings/
And when you say you are good, make sure you are in the right environment and competing with the best. Be constantly challenged by people that challenge you. Do not be isolated at all..You will get there soon..
All the best bro..
Salvation is only in Christ Jesus..

One sack of guguru for u,I've really found some stuffs that interested me about the power sector while preparing for my plenty disco interviews but I never dey sure if I'm really interested in going that extra mile as far as power is concerned tho I told them I really wanted to be a part of that revolution during my interview.
nonetheless, I admire the cause you're pursuing nd wish u well.. See u at the top!

A whole sack of guguru for me....Awwwwww....thanks dear,am so touched...hehehhehehehe...mehn,I completely understand,especially wiv d temptation of Oil Coys, and some other lucrative companies,the passion is most time in line wiv d Balery(money)...Went through your thread,mehn,babe,u dey hustle shaaaaa...datz good,well done,we've all been in d hustle market,congratz on ur new job,its time to start honning in all dem experience and head for more challenging and lucrative places.Me and my guys are seriously hustling to fix d Power sector in Naija by God's grace..its a huge task though...
@ d pay,guys,d focus is building d relevant skills to leverage on in d future...by then,u would be d one dictating d terms of agreement...I have lived and worked in Benin,and a figure under but close to 6digits is ok 2 be decently comfortable for a start..at least,u can do much better wiv it,than u can wiv an early 6digits in lagos...

Hey guyz,congratz to all that have received the success mail,and I say a big welcome to you into the Power Industry.
Nigeria is way overdue for a revolution in our Power Sector.
I wanna enjoin every one that has received this job to see this opportunity,not just as a job to earn money,but rather,as part of the smart minds God has given the opportunity to change the Power Sector in Nigeria.
Apart from our very poor Power Generation in Nigeria(currently averaging about 4GW,while Industrialized USA is doing over 1000gigawatts while constantly improving their energy mix), our distribution companies are constantly battling with their ATCn C (Aggregate technical,commercial and collection) losses.
I therefore enjoin you guyz, especially the to quickly align yourselves,and brace yourselves as we battle darkness(literally) and usher in the dawn of light.
Start getting relevant info,and starr seeing the power sector not just in the view of BEDC,but rather with a wider view,covering Nigeria,Africa,and the world. Get on NERCs website,and every other site that would give you relevant information on Nigeria's current Power status and where are headed.
Cheers Bros

You can't get that certificate from a private hospital.....well,try your luck.....

Thankfully you are currently undergoing training at NAPTIP, tell us what to expect and if the training will be all at NAPTIP SURULERE training facility for the duration of the 12months, or are we still going to EGBIN Power plant? We need this info in order to know whether to secure an accommodation in Surulere or go from home (For Lagos Residents)

Please brief the house.


First of all,its NAPTIN not NAPTIP...
I am on the training on an individual basis...ie,not company sponsored,therefore,there might be some difference in the organisation since its going to be structured for SAHARA....
The program consist of classroom orientation for 2weeks, field work for 3months, classwork for 3weeks, field work for 3months, classwork for 3weeks,field work for 3months, and finally a management taining for 2weeks...so,most of the 12months is going to be spent on the field...Remember,I am speaking in terms of the NAPTIN Graduate skill development program, and this may differ from NAPTIN training structured for SAHARA..We await all the complete info....Rest your mind....

I have received my admission letter and it contains several information including the monthly stipend and a confidentiality condition. Please understand that the confidentiality condition stated in the letter is the reason why those who have received the letter can not paste it on Nairaland or elsewhere, they would be doing that at their own peril.

Please exercise some patience, if you were recruited by Sahara Power, you will get the mail, then you can go ahead and do whatever you like with it.

Regards.


Yeah,I guessed so,datz why I didn't mention to paste the letter here....Personally,I am also currently undergoing the NAPTIN training, I believe they would have an arrangement for a few of us in that group...estimated count, 8 of us...cheers guyz...see y'all august 1st...

Success, bro. Your score isn't too bad, per se. If getting an assistantship is your greatest need, you might want to apply to less competitive schools. That way you stand a better chance of landing an admission + graduate assistantship.

Must it be a TA? How about RA? To land a research assistantship, you'll need to contact professors with similar research interests with you. Its a tactical game. Don't express your intent to be an RA in your first email or call to him. Many profs regard that as standoffish and that you're only interested in the financial benefits of it. Start first by talking about how you read several of his research works, how you liked it and how you can help him improve on some areas of it which you think needs a little touch up. Ehen! That shows a serious student, not some financial benefit hooker.grin He'll definitely reply you, appreciating your appraisals and asking you further questions concerning his research papers.
Of course, you'll need to do your own homework by downloading his research papers and reading them thoroughly to get acquainted with them. If there's space on his team, he'll definitely employ you.

If you wish to rewrite the GRE, I wish you utmost success. Cheers.
Bros Biggy...thanks somuch bro...really appreciate all d advice...I know my score aint that low though,as matter of fact,its actually above d average for University of Houston for my program,buh like I said,i aint sure its high enough for an assistantanship....since I plan going for spring 2015,i still av some time 2 retake the GRE...I knw assistantships are usually more difficult to get for the spring semester,so,i hope 2 be able 2 get an edge wiv d GRE score..As for applying for less competitive skuls...well,my major concern is wat d skul is offering in terms of my specific program and how good it is...but,then again,i also like the top notch teir1 skuls,especially doze in top 20...or at least top 50....big name counts too bro...I hope to retake the GRE by early next month....after which,i would start contacting the profs....thanks for ur kind advice bro...I wud sure make wise use of it....cheers man....
