Hello,

Please, how exactly can someone convince a potential employer that he/she is willing to do a job he/she is overqualified for?

Some friends thinking of coming back to naija after their Masters are thinking of taking up any job even if they are overqualified for it. The other problem is that most of them don't have experience despite the degrees and few are even above the maximum age required.

I told them it'll be difficult because of the thousands of fresh and recent graduates in Nigeria whom I think will fit in to these jobs better than someone with a Masters.

How then can they succeed in overcoming this OVERQUALIFIED label here in Nigeria?

Please ladies and gents, can you give more comments.

hOW EASY IS IT TO MOVE FROM A LECTURING JOB TO THE OIL INDUSTRY?

DO YOU GUYS KNOW OF ANY ONE WHO'S DONE TAKEN THIS CAREER CHANGE SUCCESSFULLY?

ALTHOUGH, I AM LOOKING INTO TAKING UP A RESEARCH WHICH WILL BE IN COLLABORATION WITH THE INDUSTRY.EVENTHOUGH I HAVE PASSION FOR LECTURING, I FEEL RESTRICTING MYSELF WITHIN THE CONFINES OF THE ACADEMIA IS NOT A GOOD IDEA.

HOW CAN I GO ABOUT THIS, PLEASE.

@POSTER, PLEASE GET ACROSS TO ME, LET'S TALK.

Hello everyone,

I will like to know why single ladies don't like young lecturers as husbands. It's not every lecturer that is promiscous and besides even those working in the industries do the same. I'm about to reject a bank job for a lecturing job but most of the ladies I meet prefer bankers to lecturers. Lecturing job is far more secured and less stressful than banking jobs.

It's a choice between career and relationship now o. All the pretty ladies I come in contact with prefer the banking options and I really want to get married to a pretty lady.

Ladies, why is it that you don't give lecturers a chance? or Is there something I can do to attract the pretty ladies and get them to oblige to my proposal? I want to know.

Thanks.
