Good evening nairalanders, please help me to thank God almighty I just got a job with a multinational company. All my years of suffering are over. In fact, it is not just a multinational company but a conglomerate. I am happy and I thank God for this and may his name be praised.

HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH HALLELUJAH PRAISE JEHOVAH!!!!!!!

I want to sincerely appreciate every single person on this forum for every single word dropped here. As flippant as some of them might seem, they have been of immense help in the times of my searching for a job. Nairalanders, after one year of service, I have been given an offer by one of the prestigious indigenous banks in this country. It is this same word, 'Prestige', that coughed out of my mouth when I was asked the popular Why work with us? question in one of the interviews I had. I answered that it would be a big boost to my ego to work with them. Everything I had rehearsed before the interview sublimed from my head when I was answering some critical questions. The whole thing was just God... Thanks to Nairaland, the three interview stages didn't take me by surprise, albeit it was pretty fast. I learnt a few things, which I am willing to share:

1) Take risks, now that you're young. If not now, when?

Last January, I left my former place of work to further my education here in UNILAG. It was crazy... Leaving work for MBA. From Biochemistry to MBA. No previous work experience, nothing. What guarantee did I have that I would get a job as soon as I was done with my programme lasting two years? Nil. But I took the risk anyways; I resigned from the job I was discontented with to pursue my Masters degree. I was just three weeks into the job. It counted when I was being interviewed for this my new role, as a matter of fact my little experience in those few days helped me to ace my first interview... There was no opening at all, the bank found me while I was preparing for my first semester exams. I had submitted my CV since sometime-around-October last year. If I hadn't signed up for my Master's degree, perhaps I would still be in my former work place with my head sagging in disdain everyday.

2) People lie in interviews, but then...

My interviewer, in one of the interviews, asked me, 'Do you lie?' They say it is an integrity question, I didn't know that. I tried to evade answering the question by giving an open-ended answer, until they trapped me in choosing either a Yes or No. I said No. And the interview said, "That's a lie!" and scribbled something on the paper in his hand.

Because I am running a full-time programme, some persons advised that I tell them I was a part-time student. It won't hurt, would it? Just tell them you're in part-time and when you get the job, switch to part-time. Smart. Now, the same interviewer that asked me whether I do lie paused for a while to observe me when I told him I was running my MBA in UNILAG (That information was not given in the CV they had with them). He then asked me what programme (part-time or full-time). I told him full-time, but added that I would switch to part-time if given the job... Three days later, I met the same interviewer in my school. He was a part-time student, MBA, in my department. Just imagine I had lied again and he asked me something about his class that I didn't know... he probably would doubt I was even enrolled for any degree.

3) Don't wait till job sites send you mails for job links, throw out your CVs everywhere you can online and offline. Advantage? It reduces competition. NBC, for instance, is recruiting nationwide, and hundreds of applications are received. Maybe only fifty is taken after all. But some other companies don't want to go through the stress of sieving thousands of CVs, they just go to their Careers mail bank and whittle down the numbers they have by a bit, send the desired profiles test invites, and -- a recruitment process begins. I stole a glance at the list of names of those invited for test when I took mine, the list was about a hundred-plus. Now, in training school, we're not up to 40. The whole process was fast, took less than one month. So, please, don't wait for openings till you send your CVs out, write mails to companies' HR units. It works.

I begun training school last month, amidst my MBA exams. It wasn't easy, but I surely will overcome, by God's grace. If there's anything like luck, I am indeed lucky because I am not the best there is to get into the bank's training school. Friends, believe in yourself. It is not about who's better, just focus on being humble and willing to learn. Certainly, it's been God all the way.

I prayed that this day would come, when I'd write my own testimony, too, as I have read herein many a time. Your own testimony is coming, too...

AMEN IN JESUS CHRIST MIGHTY NAME AMEN AND AMEN. Congratulations my brother. My own testimony too is coming and is already here Amen.

That child is smart and witty jor

There is honestly nothing funny about that picture. It just shows a huge difference.

No its not wrong. Your ex is also a Human being and a Child of THE MOST HIGH. The fact that you once dated the said ex doesn't mean she/he is less a Human. True the situation might be awkward,but hey, she/he is still very much like every other person in Church.
