Alright thanks for the information

You're welcome

How much do they intend to pay Training Providers....(per head ) of students trained ?
Do you have any idea ?

No, I don't.

But I know there's appropriate funding for this. I'm talking about billions of naira.

If you want to be a trainer you're free to apply too.

The only alternative is starting a business tied to a platform and offer consultancy or freelance, as for full-time jobs, location is a problem, I lost out on 2 massive jobs because of location.

Sir I won't lie to you, this consultancy/freelance option is quite tricky.

Location/race (especially when dealing with foreign clients) still affects business.

I've tried it before (not actually coding, but tech related) and that's what I realized.
They want you to be in a developed country or at least white. You can't lie because to get high paying clients you must build trust and this is by seeing each other in real time. Sometimes, clients will ask you to meet up in a physical location to discuss sef

Nigerian clients simply don't pay well like you'd expect.

Another downside is YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. Clients expect you to have years of professional experience first for them to take you seriously.

I'm in the qa space tho, not development. But, I think I should talk to you more about this if you don't mind

Possessedkid:
Target jobs for FOSS and crypto companies , the likes of canonical, red hat, wikimedia etc.

They do remote work from different locations


Most western AND european companies are shifting from remote to hybrid and onsite



I've an Indian friend works from Chennai for System76

Thank you for your interesting contribution sir

@ bolded
I know of canonical, I see their advert quite often. I must confess; the requirements are very high. Especially, years of experience. I don't know the other companies you mentioned (I'll check asap)

I also see Turing advert, I don't know if it's legit tho

It's true that companies are moving to onsite or hybrid. Employees are also saying that's the best mode of work for them.

qtguru:
Relocate, the end of remote work is coming to an end. Covid is over

Thanks for taking the time to respond to this thread.

That's what I noticed boss. I'm finding it hard to accept this reality. Most companies are adopting Hybrid roles.

But, one needs a job to be able to save for Japa. Isn't it?

Hello there,

If you're living in Nigeria and working remotely, there're few things I want to ask you if you don't mind:

When you apply for remote jobs, do you target "Remote, Anywhere/worldwide" or "Remote, [foreign country]"?

From my observation, most remote jobs expects applicants to reside at the job location. So, how do you maneuver this?

If you've any tips/tricks to share please feel free to do so. Thank you!

frankosivue:
Yea, I saw it as a checked it. Many people will indeed miss out on the first phase as there are already more than 500k applicants.

Yeah true

frankosivue:
You sure about this? Because I didn't see anything like that o

it's true

Adonisty:
I read it on their website that just 1% of the applicants will be taken. I think say you be their rep say make you run things for me.

it's batch by batch too, if you're not selected this first batch you can be selected in the next batch

It should

Adonisty:
this program na luck o. Only few people will be picked. It seems this intelij is a govt assigned personel for this scheme

@bolded Not at all o

Yeah, i forgot to say it. Not everyone will be selected. There's gonna be a selection process that we (Nigerians) don't know the criteria yet.

Peter12396:
Ok, Do you have any idea on when the programme is starting?

next month sir

lacruz12:
Please I need to sort out some exercises using Spring boot... can you be of help?
We can negotiate price

no problem. Send me a pm, if I can't sort it out, I know someone on here that can.

Peter12396:
I have successfully applied and gotten a confirmation email,but used Abuja as my residential address which is where I actually reside but I just remembered I school in Benue state, what if i am in school during the training can I attend the training in Benue State.

I'm not sure about that so I won't say anything about it. My advise is you should wait for the programme to start so you can find out for yourself

frankosivue:
I've seen in the spam box already. Thank you.

you're welcome

frankosivue:
I didn't get a confirmation/acknowledgement mail, hope there's no problem?

Good morning to you.
There's no problem at all. Check your spam box, you should see it.

ebutebaba:
Hello, I have tried to apply severally but couldn't submit my application. It kept responding "that my means of ID(NIN) has been used. Please any assistance on that? Thanks

sorry I'm just seeing this now. Have you registered successfully?

BinaryMonk:
What does it take for one to provide the training to people who want to upskill if there is a physical location

If i get you clearly, you want to be a trainer right?
