I totally forgot I applied for this, still haven't gotten any response. You guys that just got invite, did you do anything differently like edit your profile or something?
Olamitisoji: Them don bad mouth this guy oh. I watched the performance too Kiss Daniels really did it bad on stage. Click the link below to watch his stage performance at the #MBGN
I just watched the video and I don't understand the whole outcry over it. He lip-synched, there was no live band obviously. People in the audience enjoyed his performance, but Nigerians like being angry.
Alani86: You did well my bro. Thank you so much and God bless you.
Just a little addition my dear readers; "It is not of him that willeth nor of him that runneth, but of God that shows mercy". Neither is the race to the swift nor the battle to the strong......
God bless you too bro and thanks for your addition.
Aude: There were probably better candidates. I understand it is very frustrating but never lose hope. Remember that you are not the only candidate fighting for this position. Don't forget to write a thank you letter and reiterate your interest in the job. Also mention what you hope to bring to the position.
I read through the entire thread and I find your replies commendable and helpful. Here's me saying thank you for your insightful replies.
crixtex: Anen sir, just sat i m a lil nervous.. ds my 2nd interview
It's ok to be nervous, but don't let it show in your speech or attitude. Get tips of interview questions online and here on Nairaland. Rehearse a few answers beforehand.
shrimati: Nice one at OP. Now you do not have a job, it doesnt mean one should be jobless in all ramification. In your period of waiting for job, make sure you are doing something that is of added value. This is a question your potential employer could ask "what have you been doing in the period you were unemployed?"
sanmibukunmi: I am trying to read some books.... but i have ran out of money buying books. life can be mean at times. at times it feels like we went to school for nothing.
Search the books online, there are a million books in PDF online.
When you keep getting rejection e-mails everyday, It's common to start blaming yourself and sink into depression. It's extremely frustrating to be unemployed or having no funds to start a business.
databoy247: Please what do you mean by gullibility of job seekers?
If you know me well, you will understand that I am not a "blog" person. And am truly amazed to notice that you don't know what a journal publication is. I guess you are unemployed because I don't think employers will be interested in what you just displayed. Do a Google search and try to understand what I actually talked about.
If as a graduate you do not know what an academic journal publication is, then we have a long way to go in this country. If I were you, I'll just ask questions instead if I don't know. Do you think everything is about blogs??
Those who have indicated their interest, you will be contacted soon. Cheers.
Who wouldn't know what an academic journal publication is. This quest is primarily for your gain whether you choose to admit or not. I have seen initiatives like this, request for works of others and turn around to sell it for a fee without the knowledge of the author.
Bubewilson: Life after service is really something else when one is yet to find something doing.... When I see students I reflect back on how wonderful life use to be.... but it's all gone now and one has to face the realities of naija.
Worst still I had an interview recently the 3rd stage out of maybe 4 or 5.... What I experienced I pray no job seeker passes through it.... An issue with a different address on my CV and the one I wrote in the applicant's form got the ED disinterested in me... She even said that I was lying when I was trying to explain something to her at a point..... I latter found myself inside the rest room trying to really grasp what happened. I wished what I experienced never happened because it really broke my spirit. It's so sad what life Is here.
Talie2kiss: is not all about getting a job. when praying ask God to give u a good job, in my own case am employed but i feel more depressed than someone who isnt working... imagine u being employed as an accountant then made to be a sales assistant from there to being a full time marketer with target set. Sometimes i feel like quitting; going to work every morning with a burdened filled heart not only that, asking me to start coming to a new branch very far from my house without prior notice or additional pay to work as a marketer which i never imagined of. But what can i do?
Wow. The pain I felt while reading this though. I don't even know what to stay.
Ok, stay strong, see it as an experience towards a better job and keep applying for jobs that suit your preference.
thorpido: I'm not making prosperity ambiguous.There is an english definition of words but there is a biblical meaning to such words which may be different. The word shalom is where the biblical meaning of prosperity comes from.Shalom means completeness,soundness,wholesomeness,welfare and peace.It includes material and financial gains too. For example,do you know or have heard of very rich people who can't sleep at night?By the biblical definition of prosperity,it doesn't apply to such a man because the biblical prosperity comes with peace(without worries). There is the biblical meaning of things which are not just english definitions and that was what I was pointing out.
By the way,i wasn't defending the argument of tithing as the only source of prosperity.
I asked you if Abraham was prosperous before the birth of isaac, you said yes. Now you're contradicting yourself with this wholesomeness talk.
thorpido: Abraham was prosperous before the birth of Isaac but Abraham had had a working relationship with God before the birth of Isaac.That made him prosperous.
I am not challenging the cause of his prosperity, it's your trying to make Prosperity ambiguous that it's been challenged.
