I'm guilty of no. 3 not only after interviews. The last interview and proposal I attended, imeediately I was done, I just folded my jacket into my back pack, removed the tie, folded my long sleeves and finally "un-tucked" my shirt. Suit and tie no be for me oh. After dressing at home, I don't get to wear the jacket till I get to the venue.
Many people are guilty of that. They put on their tie at the venue and remove it immediately after the interview. It shows that you can hardly cope if offered the job.

gone are the days when good jobs are already waiting for you from your final year in the university. Now no jobs sef talk less of "good".
The educational system is wack and to make matters worse, the Nigerian educational system is dilapidated. Fresh graduates are required to have at least ten years experience angry . You need long legs for virtually everything, from gaining admission to getting employed.
God save our Nation
You're right. And its getting worse by the day.

Jobs/VacanciesSome Hidden Mistakes Job-seekers Make During Interviews by LaurelP(op): 9:44pm On Aug 03, 2015
Its good to prepare well for your interviews, to practice your answers to popular questions, to research the company and position, study your CV, dress smell good and arrive on time.
However, I've come to realize from experience that many jobseekers adhere to these rules, but still end up performing poorly in interviews.
I've been a victim of these mistakes and it has cost me a lot of interviews that I would have aced. It took me some time to realize my mistake but unfortunately, many jobseekers still fall victim. What am I talking about?

1) Discussing and making noise with fellow interviewees: Interview is a serious business. It is not a social gathering or an avenue to exchange pleasantries, discuss politics and football and gossip about unimportant stuffs. Many, and I repeat many jobseekers make this mistake.
They're waiting for the interview to start or their turn to reach, and before you know it the place turns to a market place. Everybody forgets why they're there and start making noise. This works against you in two ways: You forget why you're there and all the preparations you've done, and even the company might percieve you as an unserious person. You won't realize this until you're called in for your turn and you realize you just ended up chatting away your potential job.

I'm not saying you shouldn't exchange greeting with fellow jobseekers, I'm saying you should do it quickly and go to one side and think about your answers to questions or any further info you might need to ruminate over that will make you soar above others. After the interview you can socialize.

2) Disclosing your answers to questions: On no account should you disclose to fellow interviewees your answers to questions asked, especially on salary and allowances. Whyhuh
Because that your "new friend" you told your expected salary can give a lesser figure during the second stage interview and he will be hired ahead of you. Many have lost jobs through this means (including myself) just because I was trying to make friends! If you're asked, tell the person its private matter or give him a figure way above what you demanded!

3) Becoming too casual immediately after the interview: I've seen some remove their tie immediately they come out of the interview room, some remove their suits and become too casual. Avoid these urges cos you never know if the company is still watching and assessing your level of focus and seriousness. Remain formal and organized until you climb that Okada, Keke or taxi.

4) Over-thinking about your performance: Once you're through with your interview, assure yourself that you did your best and leave the rest for God and the employer. There's no need to beat yourself, it will distract you. When you get home, analyse the interview, try to anlyse your mistakes and correct them in the next interview. Move on with your life!

Cheers!!!

The "Can I meet you please" and " tell us about yourself" questions in a job interview.

Sometimes I get confused. Are these two questions the same with respect to job interview?

Please what's your take, and what exactly are we expected to say.
They mean the same thing!

Jobs/VacanciesPTDF Tells Federal Government To Force Oil Companies To Employ Nigerians by LaurelP(op): 5:42pm On Aug 03, 2015
The Petroleum Technology Development Fund, PTDF, has called on the Federal Government to make both local and International Oil Companies (IOC) operating in the country to employ more Nigerian oil and gas professionals.
Speaking at the Close Out seminar in Abuja,
Executive Secretary of the Fund, Mr. Femi
Ajayi, lamented the fact that it's not fair for
Nigerian professionals to burn the candle,
work hard and graduate with flying colours
then end up unemployed.
According to him, the Federal Government
needs to put in place, measures that will
ensure that both local and international oil
companies employ indigenous professionals,
especially scholars of the PTDF scholarship
scheme.

He said,
“The issue is not just competence and
capability, there is also the need for
political will among the IOCs and the
government. We cannot rely on the
goodwill of the IOCs when it comes to
the issue of employing of our people;
they have to be compelled to do it.”

He emphasized the need for all stakeholders
in the petroleum industry to contribute their
quota towards ensuring that indigenous
professionals are gainfully engaged and also
that the funds and efforts expended in
training these professionals are not futile.
