Monalisa185:

yemoxyl:

adorablevic:

dearpreye:
I think the subtle message is that we should have adequate information about our course of study. We should endeavour to be well - informed about our discipline. There's some level of self confidence that goes with that.

rationalmind:
I just pray you do not learn the hard way like I did. Perhaps I'll need to share another experience to further buttress my point.

Just after my interview with montego holdings where I struggled to explain my course of study, I got another interview invite from AETI a day after writing the test. They were recruiting for NBC.

While I was reading about my course of study in preparation for the interview, I told myself this same thing you're saying. "How many things I wan read". I left reading about computers and computer engineering then focused on other things.

On the day of the interview, immediately after introducing myself. The first question was, rationalmind, can you please tell me the variants of windows 7?

Variants of windows 7? I asked the man. Yes, he answered.

Windows 7.0, Windows 7.1, Windows 7.2, I replied.

The wicked interviewer was just nodding his head and I was glad I had guessed right

The next question was, can you please tell me the variants of windows 8?

What is it with this man and variants of windows, I asked myself?

I replied again, windows 8.0, windows 8.1, windows 8.2.

He kept nodding his head and I was glad I perfectly guessed.

Several questions followed, some I got, some I missed.

As I came out of the interview room, I picked up my phone, opened Google and searched for variants of windows 7.

The result came and I saw windows 7 home, windows 7 professional, .....

I searched for variants of windows 8, same thing.

I then remembered how the wicked guy was nodding his head. I felt so stupid.

When I got home, I went back to the very basics, I started reading everything and anything I could lay my hands on about computers and computer engineering. I've had enough.

Few days after the interview, MacMaster01 posted "guys" on the thread. I knew what that meant. I rushed to my mail, nothing. Checked my spam, nothing. I never heard from them.

So bro, while its true you can't know everything, please try as much as possible to know as many things as possible. It will save you the embarrassment I faced.

Monalisa185:
...nah, nah nah...not so fast buddy....one step at a time....

Monalisa185:
nice adventure....

the poster above me seems clueless

rationalmind:
KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOUR COURSE OF STUDY.

I was just a raw job seeker, still serving, when I saw this job ad posted by MissIndependent. Fresh Corp members are needed at a firm in Ikoyi. Company was Montego Holdings.

Fast forward to the day of the interview, I was dressed in my favourite black shirt and black trouser with red tie looking like a ghost.

Full of confidence, I walked into the interview room to see a guy and a lady. In no time, the interview started.

So Mr rationalmind, you studied computer engineering? Yes, I answered.

So please tell us, what is computer engineering all about?

Right there in my mind I was like, what!!!, I spent the whole night reading about your company and common interview questions and all you're asking me is what computer engineering is all about?

I answered their question but I was so ashamed of myself. I struggled to explain a course I had spent six years studying (2 years in poly, 4 in uni).

After I finished, the guy looked at me and said, assuming my computer brings out a blue screen, what could be the likely cause?

I had no fucking idea. All I was taught in school were digital signal processing, artificial intelligence and a whole lot of courses that couldn't help me at that moment.

He then asked me another question which I got but it no longer mattered. They had seen all they wanted to see.

Right there, I learnt my first ever lesson. Which is to know everything there is to know about my course.

And of course, I was never called back

My name is Kingsley, I ve been dating my girlfriend for about 5 years now, last year we got engaged hoping to tie the knot but things didn't go as planned. We attend different church and I have made it known to her ever since that after marriage she will be worshiping with me in my church. I'm a member of the church of christ while she attends winners chapel. We have been okay until recently I told her I want to start the marriage arrangements again and she started saying she can't go to my church after we marry,, that her mum adviced her to speak with me about it,,I kept my stand but she said if we can't reach an agreement on that then we should call it off. I want my family to be United in all fronts from religion to culture. Now I'm confused, should I allow her to attend her church after marriage knowing it might affect my children? Please your advice is needed.

From what you two wrote, its obvious that the our non-Igbo inlaws never paid the bride price to the families of their Igbo fiance's and in Igbo culture they are seen as credit/back door inlaws and don't have a right of ownernish over any child thier lustful cohabitation produced.


Even in court, it's the mother of the child that has custody of the child up to a legal age where he or she is to decide who to live with. While the father is duty bound to provide all financial support needed.


Over the years we have seen our distant cousins in mainly yoruba land being ridiculed for having come from an Igbo mother. We can't let such happen again.


Make una uncle them ready to pay bride price for Igbo girls they want to marry and stop thinking they can use pregnancy and child birth to keep our daughters hostage while they jump again to marry a girl from their own tribe.

Monalisa185:
lol....4-0....I just can't deal, mehn....shame!!!

Decker:
Because your uncle's Igbo girlfriend acted in a particular manner, doesn't mean that all Igbo girls act in that manner.
The behavior of a person or few set of persons from a particular tribe should never be used to define that tribe.

What your uncle's wife did can and has also been done by other ladies from other tribes.

It all boils down to the girl's personality and character, and not her tribe or ethnicity.
