Yea, get in touch with me.

Thank you I have sent a message �

Hi all! Is there anyone with DevOps experience that can mentor me? I would be really grateful to get one.

Also looking for remote internship positions. If anyone knows job websites I can apply to I'd greatly appreciate �

einsteino:


lol @ the bolded. so true, over here every second matters. for school and work, the first step is to choose the job wisely(assuming you aren't already locked down). Some jobs would just not work with school, no matter what.

Yes that is so true . I will need to seriously weigh this before deciding. Thanks for this. You've given me something to seriously think about

einsteino:
I was so glad to read that you and your family made it here. I pray the land is more than you could have wished for. I have been around but not as active anymore. Right now, I work fulltime and school fulltime at the same time(I don't know how I am coping sef). it is a high pressure life and something just had to give.

Oh thank you so much. Amen and for us all.
Lol I know right. The 24 hrs here feels like 18hrs

You will pull through, best to do it once and for all and rest. I put school on hold but since you're doing both, I think imma hit you up on tips about how you're doing it

Overall the experience has been a life changing one.
Lol now I'm so accountable for time

I lived in NE for 2yrs plus, if the poster stays away from Malborough, Franklin and sunridge and stays in somewhere like Skyview Ranch, Taradale, Saddletowne I don't see anything bad in NE... 9ja people were fond of badmouthing NE. I worked nights and walked home from the train station at 2am and nothing happened to me while i lived there, i moved out in 2019 after getting married. Poster just do your findings and avoid the aforementioned areas

True alot of bad stories about the NE but alot of people I know live there and no issues. Ultimately I guess it's different experiences for everyone. I wish I lived there though . Almost everything is there plus I work there. Woulda made my commute easier

Thank you Hafsat for sharing. Indeed it's those who you know nothing about that help you out. I don't know why it's like that. Someone on the other group give me details on how to process letter from FRSC, picked it up for me, brought it to Canada. I was busy thinking when I have time I'll pick it up. Only for him come to my city few weeks after he arrived Canada for interview and he brought my letter for me.

Thank you all for being helpers.

Wow that's so wonderful of him. True, we can only grow if we continue to help each other out. Canada is ours to succeed in.

salford1:

Wow. Thanks very much for coming back here to show appreciation. This means a lot to some of us. May God continue to bless you and your family as you set up firm root in this beautiful country of ours.

Aww thank you so much. I should be the one saying thank you. I can't thank you enough

So I made this post December 19 2017, at the time I haven't even gotten a headway convincing my spouse to let us try the process. Nonetheless I kept reading and praying. And just enjoying the comments and learning. I learnt so much from Salford, blackbuddy, vcole, Nogen, maternal, Einsteino, and so many more. Each time I read I showed my spouse your posts and he just shrugged it off. So a week later, like a joke he said he wanted us to pay for WES. I remember it was on Christmas day. I didn't believe it till he brought out his card to pay for us both. And he paid, and that's how everything began. IELTS became a stumbling block at some point, so we took a break. Then I had a baby in April of 2018 and then got a job 2weeks later. I was the happiest person at that point. And then I didn't even bother about the process anymore. I thought I had arrived, my spouse however noticed I had taken a back seat on the whole process. And then he told me, 'trust me 1 year from now you will ask yourself if this is it, and then I really would want to leave naija'. Of course I didn't believe him He jokingly kept saying it that I can stay in naija while he goes to Canada with the kids. Since I am 'doing well' I can pay visits to Canada.

To cut the long story short, November of 2018 we wrote IELTS, I for the second time and him for the 4th. And I prayed to God at that point that if Canada was meant for us, this should be the last time we would write. We prepared so well and as God will have it we got the perfect score we needed. We updated our profile December 15th 2018 and got an invitation to Apply December 19th, submitted January 24th 2019 and got PPR May 8 2019

Left Nigeria for Calgary October 29th 2019

It has been a journey I must say, I have been meaning to write this but time has always been the issue. But here I am today, writing this in my bus, on my way to work.

Hmm work, that is another story on its own I hope to take my time to write on. It's been wonderful and I must say dreams do come true if you believe and stay true to the course

Thank you so much to everyone who share their stories. This is me making good on my promise.

Salford, Einsteino you may not know me but you've inspired me in many ways. I can literally still remember your posts. Lol it kind of feels like you said them to me directly because I still remember them vividly. Thank you.

The Congo too lol, I like your honesty, not so much for the brutal part of it though lol. But it's great for the most part. Thank you for you

Einsteino too, I love love your write ups. I don't know if you are still on nairaland. You have been an inspiration too. Thank you

Let me stop here. I will try to make my next post soon enough.

I'm sorry if there are any typographical errors.

Thank you all

P.S do not mind the time on the the screenshots, I made it over 2months ago, I just got around to writing this morning

I miss you, how've you been and the family..best regards

Mizwisdom:



Its as if they have had issues before because the insult is misplaced. @denaven may your sacrifice yield favorable fruits in Canada

You gerrit
Amen for him and all

Mizwisdom:



Lol why are you this rude na, do you think it's easy for him to leave his thriving business because of PR some will never do it so cut him some slacks, which one is running around like headless chicken living in Canada should refine your responses a bit

I tire for the response
I can just imagine what it took him to take that decision.
@denaven I wish you all the best, may the sacrifice you're making bring great rewards

TheCongo2:


And this is what I have been saying from the outset

Apparently so many people are not getting the main point of your argument hence the continuous back and forth replies.. Well said!

ceemac:



Uncle Salford,

It will be 50/50 when both parties involved work the same job that will bring same income oo.. No one is gonna be one cent more than the other

Both parties will have the pregnancy for 4.5months and transfer it to the other for the rest 4.5months and on the delivery, the two parties will share the baby and deliver it the same time

Maternity leave and paternity leave will be shared equally also to cater equally for the newborn

The both parties will have to start work at the same time, close the same time and go and pick the kids in school at the same time

Until then 50 o ge 50 ooo..

While the above is never possible, the most important ingredient in marriage I should thing is most importantly understanding, maturity and sacrifice.

O ju ti ri ooo..

I can't laugh abeg

salford:
Sometimes the women are not even aware that they have stopped being submissive. Alot of women from Nigeria are used to having househelp and that neice or nephew from village doing all the running around. By the time they get here, normal everyday task could become overwhelming, then women request that their husband help them with house chores...na there the wahala dey start.

You've said it all

Tojued:


Lol. einsteino you need a blog. We're enjoying the uncommercialised gist sha, but for personal memory, in 15 years time it will be easier for you to find and conglomerate stuff you wrote (and snapped) on your blog than on other social media.

I totally agree, he should. It's really an interesting read

Adeola2908:
Hello Nairalanders, a friend told me his brother has a slot and he asked me send my CV and credentials for FIRS Which I did dis morning and I received an acknowledged message from FIRS, he is demanding some amount of money though, I’m here to ask if such is genuine b4 I proceed in giving him the money.

Thank you

Berra keep your money..if it's genuine let them give you your letter then you pay..but not before

AngryRebel:
pls do u know if she was issued APL before medicals?

No APL issued yet, just medicals

AngryRebel:
Thanks for the response. Pls this information does it have to do with firs or CBN? I have done medicals too with CBN. Pls,do u mind if I know the yr ur friend did her interview with CBN?
Regards

Yes I'm referring to CBN.. she did her interview in May this year

AngryRebel:
pls have they called successful candidate?

I don't know which batch you are but a friend of mine has done medicals

[quote author=eshaq post=68874197][/quote]

I've responded to your pm

nekyfine:
Pls I want to ask if all these pple collecting APL passed through interview process. I was nt call for the interview bt my instinct is still telling me dat I will be called.

Of course there are people who got it without passing through the interview. However being called without having someone fronting for you is a slim possibility. If you do have someone fronting for you then your instincts could turn out true

@obaloppelujo

Not at all.
There are laptops at the training centre which you will be asked to login into with your FIRS I.D and you're expected to fill in all information required then print..everything they need to know about you.

Then there are duplicate forms you are to fill with biro/pencil. All these are part of the documentation process.

obaloppelujo:
Morning people, no salary dis month abi ? since we are still waiting for posting.

Salaries are paid after 3moths all together.

Not true!

obaloppelujo:
I want to ask this question which may sound ephemeral to you guys. Is posting letter going to be given too , or a posting via SMS will just be sent across to show our employers at various place of posting ?

Then , did you guys go through a process of opening a bank account during documentations , or we are just to present our personal preferred account number ?

Did you guys got your ID card after the documentation , I mean do you all have your firs ID card with you as we speak , if yes , will I get mine too after documentation process , possibly , instantly , or the next day ?

Is there going to be another form of induction for we , the new invites? ( I pray there should be none ) .

My documentation venue will be in abuja at the firs training school this Thursday , apart from all the original documents ask to present , what possible challenge should I be expecting ?

Lastly ! Can I leave Abuja for Lagos as soon I get my ID card .

Posting letter was sent via email..which was to be printed out, filled and submitted. I guess it's going to be same way again

You type in whichever bank you desire to use for salary account

We've gotten our I'D card and that was on the second day of induction. You won't get yours immediately because it's at the documentation you will be given ID form to fill and you submit passport,next day I don't think so either.

Go with pencil and eraser. You will need it. If you're good with typing then you shouldn't have a problem however if you have any problem, the staffs are around to help.

You can decide to wait as long as it will take for your I'd to be ready before leaving for lagos. Hope this helps

neoclassical:
Please, is the ongoing recruitment different from this one that appointment letters are being issued? I applied in 2016 but I wasn't called for an interview. I need your reply pls, because my source keep promising me to be hopeful and hold on till the budget is approved by Mr. President. I am waiting for your response pls.

He's referring to the same recruitment of which appointment letters are being issued. As per holding on till budget is approved I don't understand the idea behind that. Keep pressing him to help you because if budget was a prerequisite before you are called then I don't think they would have started issuing out letters to begin with. I wish you good luck
