Give him some times, may be he is saying the truth but at the same the step you took is not bad too. I believe sooner or later, your BB will reach you.

Seriously, i am highly moved by the write up. God bless you OP.

One of the major reasons why some youths/people remain jobless for so many years despite their good grades, is their inability to serve or learn at free will. There are job opportunities virtually every day but most times with the clause; "with 1, 2, 3 years of experience". But people don't have this required experience and so are not qualified for such opportunities. Have you ever asked yourself how to get the so called experience? I will use my field (Engineering) as an example here, and I hope it will be useful for the younger ones or those still searching for jobs.
Please note, my analysis might not necessarily be applicable to all Unemployed Graduates.
Vacancy!!!
A transmission Engineer is needed in MTN.
Requirements:
1. Must have studied any of the following courses Electrical, Mechanical, Computer Engineering or any other relevant course.
2. Must have 3 years experience in relevant field etc.
Here we go! How will a person that has graduated for the past 3-4 years, studied the required course, willing to work as a transmission Engineer, get such opportunity without haven gained the required experience?
Organizations are no longer interested in using their resources to train graduates. It is you that will forcefully give yourself out "free of charge" to serve or learn on your area of interest and in the process, you keep updating your CV based on the experience you have obtained so far. You will give yourself out to do all sorts of "dirty" jobs assigned to you. You have to be humble and ready to accept whatever comes your way. That is where the experience comes from. That is the GOLD you are looking for. Now you are about to enter the fast lane. It might take you 3 -6 months, 1-2 years depending on how smart or lucky you are to have a good Boss that is ready to teach you the job.
As soon as you are accepted to start learning on the job, you can never be less than what you were at that moment. Why? Because whenever you are asked the question "what can you do for us"? It will be easy for you to start mentioning what you have learnt in your field that will convince the interviewers that to a large extent, you know what the job entails. Now, if you have successfully learnt on the job within 3-6 months and you have graduated for the past 3 years or so, what you have learnt within such period has covered for your period of idleness. You can conveniently convince anyone that you have a couple of years of experience and trust me, you will end up bargaining for your take home pay with a smile. You know why? Because you will be seen as an experienced person not as a graduate trainee any more.
One of my colleagues in the office once told me that he attached himself to his neighbour for complete 8 months without pay just to learn on the job. The first job he got after the 8 months was as an "experienced Engineer" with an official vehicle and a driver attached. Don't forget, get the experience first, then money will follow.
Another friend of mine graduated with a degree in Metallurgical Engineering. He couldn’t secure a job for 4 good years so he decided to go into the business of renting wheelbarrows to Hausa trader in one of the Markets in Lagos. He wasn’t fulfilled with what he was doing until one day he walked up to one of their Church members, who happened to be a Boss in an oil servicing company in PortHarcourt that he was ready to work in their company without pay. After so much plea, he was considered and he worked for the company for 18 months without pay, just for him to gain the needed experience. Today, he is working with TOTAL LNG in Russia, based on his acquired skills. It was possible because he decided to serve free of charge in order for him to gain the needed experience that will catapult him to his promise land.
I am also a living example. I was attached to a sub-contractor in the city of Abuja some years ago. I spent 13 months, with 20k as my take home pay. Of course, anyone would know that, that was not enough for my transportation and feeding in a month. Exactly 6 months into the job, I got an invite for an interview from one of the leading Telecoms Company in Nigeria. In the course of the interview, I was made to realize that my scope of understanding with regards to the job was not wide enough for me to get the position. They mentioned other aspects I needed to know and I wasn't recommended for the position.
I went back home, attached myself for free to learn on those aspects I didn't know and I can tell you that I eventually got the job with same company 2 years after. So please learn to serve in order to add to your value for your better tomorrow. Learn to put the Cart before the Horse and you will be proud of yourself in the nearest future. Experience is the Money you are looking for. Don't wait until you get a job of 200k, 500k before you start doing something.
I hope this will help someone and people in other fields looking for jobs will also apply this technique. Knowing well that all Engineers, Builders, IT professionals, Architects etc. needs to be practically sound in order to make choices when opportunities shows up. I was inspired to write this note because presently we have so many graduates or people with no meaningful jobs who don’t have experience and opportunities keep coming without having those to fill such vacancies because they don't have the requisite experience.
Please note, in the journey of life, people get lost not because they do not know where they are going, people get lost in the journey of life because they lose FOCUS! The strength of destination is in the strength of FOCUS! Do not give up on yourself, no matter what you are going through.
Guys wake up. You are the only ones who can help yourselves. Stop apportioning blame to people for your inabilities to secure jobs or a future for yourselves. Time is no longer anyone's friend and before you say hey, it might be too late to re-adjust. I hope you won't say people are not willing to assist when you yourself have failed to play your part.
God help us.

OP, Thank you for the piece of advice and information. Many graduates don't want to sacrifices themselves any longer. Not knowing that companies especially multi national can't employ you if you are experience. So, people talking 200k job and the rest, the job is there but many graduates don't have experience to it and also Grace of God is important as well. Great post.

Bro, it depends. There is money in IT. I will advice you to go for IT training like software engineering, programming, java and the rest. Even, if you don't see work, you can Start something on your own yourself as far as you are good at it and well trained. Then, later you can further education in BSC. Because the street is over saturated for unemployed graduates.

I remember some years back, my aunt came from Abuja after a long time, she sent me recharge card and i use the change subscribe too. So, i sent the card through my kid sis to give it to her, she excepted me to bring the change. Two months later, she came. I was coming from somewhere when i notice her voice and her shoe, to come enter come become wahala. I just used idea as if i am sick. Though, she mentioned about the change, but overlook it.

Well Madam, i know how you feel to be betrayed by someone you love, care and trust. Also, your marriage is still young to be passing through this kind of issues. But, the fact is, this your husband have been doing it before you got married just that you are not observant enough or you overlook it. Now, those things are coming to hunt you. Solution? Anyway, not talking to him for 24hours you are on track but after 24hours and you still keep mute, you are inviting fatigue into your marriage. Communications must be intact in a marriage, anytime any day. So, try to forgive him and try to ask him what he look for outside that you don't have? Though a cheat will always be a cheat until he learnt his bitter lesson from outside, he will now remember he have beautiful wife at home.

That is what we are into now. End time churches with gullible worshippers.

Someone asked me today that, what is the only thing our next generation should look up to in Nigeria? I said nothing expect Nairaland. Nairaland is the only good fortunes our generations is lucky to have, and thanks to Internet. Congrat bro!

Pls, tell me is not my fellow Nigerians that wrote those things? Seriously, with this set of mentality, This country can never grow. Because they will keep doing the stupid act and hand it over for other generations coming. I love Hausa people before but with this their fish brain, i believe majority of them think the same way. Because if educated northern people can wrote such despite the exposure through school, tell me about how the illiterate northern will think? This country doesn't change, we need beyond change. Time to hustle and find way out of this country. No hope, more suffering.

Ten and twelve? Well, i am born on the 10/12 (December 10), no wonder God is always wonderful in my live despite many challenges.

Akaewu:
Would like to know if there is a place or some people that would like to collect some good used cloths... especially suits jackets

Pls, where do you reside because i need them badly? Thanks........

I smile when i saw the tweet. Paying tithe and offering via sms banking. Seriously, poverty will keep increasing if FG don't regularize this madness by collecting money from people in the name of offering. Anyway, i don't blame them, i blame those that go there because they are not force to do it.

TheNewsghost:
- Alright. Watch out, we would get in touch soon.

I will be expecting.

TheNewsghost:
-
Interview schedule would be sent in email. We interview online, there would be no need to travel for a physical interview.

Ok. Have sent my application to the email. Hope to hear from you soon. Thank You.

A woman that can do that without hesitation, she is even more deadly than the armed robbers that robbed them. Is a sign for that man to know the kind of man he married. Divorcing her? Not the best solution. But, the man should not tell her none of his secret especially one with progression or success again from that moment. If devil is too busy to go for a mission, the only creature he can send and would accomplish such mission perfectly without hitch is a woman. Fear them!

TheNewsghost:
-
Pass interview and prove yourself on-the-job.
