xij38580: Kindly pardon my lengthy post.
Recently I was searching for a software apprenticeship program as I basically have an obsession for computing and coupled with a burning desire for perfection of my software craft. Fortunately, while scouring the internet for a master to learn from, I found a company in the UK with an advert that explained my situation and offered a 3 year apprenticeship program.
Despite my averseness to living or even visiting the UK, I felt this was me the advert was referring to and decided to send the company an email. The company responded to my email and to them I possessed qualities they were looking for. I read stories and blogs of some folks that completed the program and how they transformed from not so cool developers to awesome software engineers.
However, it came to the issue of where am I currently? I formed them I was in Lagos Nigeria. They informed me that they had tried sponsoring a non-uk resident for visa once and it was a lengthy and complex process which given their size as an SME was a daunting process.
Is it possible for me to obtain a UK residence + work permit here in Nigeria so as to apply to this apprenticeship program? Also what requirements do I have to fulfill ? Thanks Not possible. |

GeneralShepherd: Thank you so much for all the help bro! You are an angel
where can I get proper winter jacket,gloves,hat that are not overpriced? I don''t want to waste all my money or be saving and get ill(and loose more money) Ebay is the ultimate if you have an account and PayPal account as well you will get cheap and cheerful material there or try Next, Topman, Bank, River Island, those high street shops have good winter jackets on sales sometimes. |

GeneralShepherd: exactly my point. I am working hard to organize myself and come up with a proper time management plan.
I already met one guy from the previous year that was telling me that Cranfield is horrible place with wicked lecturers,that the teaching is a scam and all. He even asked if he can put up with me against university rules,he said people do it all the time wiithout problems.And that alumni from previous years don't have jobs.
I am already booking appointments with the career services,to improve my online application skills,interviews,e.t.c
I am trying so hard to manage my time,this is very difficult for me.
Also need to[b] imporve my writing skills and practise on putting references in my own words[/b]. I am so used to copying and pasting.
justwise, I will glad if you can help with any of the above stated issues. It is a whole new world for me,I must confess. Let me start by saying.....don't let anybody cloud your mind with negative aspect of the uni and the lecturers, yes there are a lot of horrible stories but you have to put on a positive mindset and carry on with your project. Plagiarism is a big issue but you can over come it easily.....incite and reference your work. There are many software that will help you organize your references ...EndNote is one of them, your uni will have it, download it and use the guideline to learn how to use it. Use Google Scholar for your journal articles, many articles published there are from well-known journal article websites. You can use harvard referencing method or other types, inciting within the body of your work is another thing, some people use numbering system...IEEE is a good source and you can also use this website for a quick read http://pitt.libguides.com/c.php?g=12108&p=64736With the winter approaching many students struggle with time because not everybody wants to get out there in cold but you have to do it. Set your alarm clock. Get good winter jacket, hat, glove and thermal wear. Aboniki balm is another miracle worker.... |

GeneralShepherd: 1.I just threw my stuff in a box and made sure it was under 23kg according to air maroc limits ,but please don't bring dairy products,meat or honey. You may not be searched but please be mindful that it is illegal (avoid anything illegal even if it is downloading torrents)
2. Yes you can stay in Mitchell till you sort yourself out,but my brother since you are on scholarship it is imperative you find accommodation on campus. Cranfield is in the middle of nowhere( Milton Keynes is at least 30 minutes by Bus),. From what I learnt about the school things are going to get pretty rigorous soon. From Now to Feb ,there will be marathon lectures with a week in between modules and exams will be in Nov and then December. Just try and stay on campus.
3. Today we basically had inductions ,about career services,IT,fire,etc and most importantly on plagiarism. I will be more than willing to help you when you come on campus with any questions you may have or any difficulties you may face.
4. The class is 80% Nigerian, almost made me regret coming. But I will not falter nor be faint hearted ,though I have this fear on return on investment as I am self-sponsored. Please when you come here remembered , you are here to work hard.
5. I am drawing up my timetable and a quality management system to track my progress in this masters. The section in bold caught my attention and i completely see where you are coming from. Having a lot of Nigerians in one uni may be a good thing but having them in the same class is a tough one to coup with. Avoid all-Nigerian project group, its a bad idea. |

spikesC: Yes, even on part time basis. It doesn't have to be a fortune 500 company or a senior position. Just something very relevant to his career path That will be a miracle..... only if his uni allows work placement/internship as part of Msc program then he will look for such company. |

spikesC: You can actually call them for the national insurance, they'll ask for your details on the phone and send you a form via mail to fill. After filling it, you post it back. Within 2 weeks, you'll get the NI via post.
Remember to also register with a GP.
Also, don't restrict your job search to petty jobs. That is mostly what you'll be getting for now, but you can still find very good jobs in your area of study/profession.
Get very close to your lecturers and program leaders. If you make a high distinction, they can help you get a scholarship for your PhD, if you're interested.
Goodluck to you hustle bro  Definitely not on part time basis. |

Dfavouredone: Big congrats to you bro.
But then that make us three - myself and alienbonr.
I will be doing same course - MSc Offshore and Ocean technology With Subsea Engineering at cranfield on scholarship and Alienbonr is coming for Thermal Power - all under the Energy Department.
Heard also that cranfield is quite an isolated place - good for studies but bad for social and night life.
It is visa that is delaying me now - still waiting for approval and collection.
It will be so nice to have a NL broda on same course in a foreign land - that will help eliminate some of the boredom to some extent ; though not as your fiance will do.
Right now, i will seriously need some of your assistance knowing that you have passed the way i intend to pass in a few days time.
The assistance is in the following areas 1. How did u package so much foodstuff to travel as i will also like to take some foodstuff too.
2. I was not able to get accommodation in the school hostels as i was told it was filled up. I intend to rent from private landlords. Can u help me if u get any wind of vacant accommodation around and where i could stay or rent an hostel for 2-3 days before i firm up a contract with a private landlords.
3. Can u give a little specific details as regards what is happening in our course since resumption on the 3rd.
4. I would like to call you one on one to keep in touch. If you dont mind can you give me you labara number. DELETED
Just to say: - I love the goal you have set for yourself academically. - How do u intend to handle nlng invite when they call?
Thanks bro. You were able to read his post because he shared it openly here with everybody and also to help others, if we all take our chat private this place will look like a ghost town. You can keep in touch with anybody you want without dropping your contact details here |

Travel › Re: Free Working Visa To Qatar by justwise(mod): 6:18am On Oct 06, 2014 |
Imyourex: Hello Nairalanders. I was listening to the radio on the 1st of this month when a man came on air and advertised that he is representing a company that the company wants to send people to work in Qatar, Oman, Dubai or Barain. He said that its a free working visa and the company will take care of the flight and accomodation. But we have to work under the company for one year i.e the company will distribute us to work for other companies but they will collect the money, give us our share and take the balance (indirect slavery) but they said its about 3500 Qatar Riyal equivalent to 150k. so they can deduct all the expenses incured, after which we can decide to leave the company and work elsewhere. He said those countries need people to work in factories and any other common jobs because the citizens of those country dont like to work since they are paid salaries at home. He said we can pick up a registration form at their office for 3000 Naira On the following day I rushed to the address he directed and I purchased the form and I also met some people there collecting the form, we were told that we are to return the form at least after six weeks of purchase with a photocopy of our international passport, HIV test, a passport photograph and a heart X-ray. That we will be called on phone when the visas are ready and we will pay 50k before the visa will be issued to us. But my fear now is I dont know if it is real or scam because when I looked at the office it looked so temporal and there was no single computer there but they said the visa will be electronic and when I asked they said they are not a travelling agent per se but they only rent that place so that people can have where to purchase the forms and I also met a woman who called his son in Qatar to ask and the son said she should collect it, she even asked if someone that has been in Qatar before can cross and work with this company (maybe d guy parole no too gel for Qatar) but they said no . So please nairalanders does this kind of offer exist? Hope I'm not going to lose the 50,000 I'm planning to borrow from my in law and the greatest of all is that maybe will be stranded in the desert like most stories I read on the net. Pls my brothers and sisters, shed more light on this for me. And pls dont blame me, blame vee dee vee. GOD BLESS NIGERIA. You wasted that money, i still don't understand why Nigerians get scammed so easily. |
