Business / Re: Does Anyone Know Empire Nigeria? by lindsay(f): 11:40am On May 10, 2019 |
I didn't go again. I found out that from Nairaland that is a scam. The address has been used several times and I was sent another invitation with that same address but with iLead as the company inviting me for an interview on Tuesday. Jobberman are now aware sha. They said people have been complaining so they sent a general notification to all job seekers. Doyed: |

Empire Nigeria update I went for the "interview" today and it wasn't an interview. It was a seminar. Empire Nigeria is a subsidiary of CFLEAD. I got to the location (Plot 1A Block B8, CMD jubilee road beside Magodo Brooks Estate North Gate, Magodo Lagos) late. It said to come by 10am but I got there by 10:59am. While I got there, a lady was giving a talk. She seemed to be shouting but when I entered inside, she was taking a video break. The video break involved us listening to audio recording from Bishop David Oyedepo about the keys to success. We watched and listened for about 20 minutes and the lady came back to give us their vitamins. Vitamin A for Action (she told us to repeat after her which we all did) Vitamin B for Boldness Vitamin C for … (I don forget) Vitamin D for Determination Vitamin E for Enthusiasm. After she gave us the vitamins and what that they meant, she passed the baton on to some other guy. I can't remember his name. He however talked to us for a long time. We were told that he was the one to make the selection. He told us that he joined the partnership in 2014. He is a graduate of Physics from OAU Ile-Ife and got his M.Sc. Medical Physics from a Texan university. He told us how his first job only paid him ₦50,000 (before he did his masters) and his second job (after masters) paid him ₦85,000. He never really got to tell us the nitty-gritty of what the partnership does while I was there but from what I gathered from his talk, it had to do with going to various organisations and giving talks (of which he called business consultancy). He told us that there are various levels in the system. They are the: 1. Local 2. International 3. Presidential 4. Shareholder. He said the local takes about 1 month to complete but if you are dull will take at most 3 months. He also mentioned that he is at the International level and has been to several countries for training because of it. He proceeded to show us pictures of his time in Abu-Dhabi and Mauritius and said he would be going to Prague next year. He said last month he took home ₦500,000 as his earnings. He said as a local, there are three levels to it and there are incentives as well. He however reiterated that it was an incentive for encouragement, not because it is your right. The incentive was ₦40,000 at the lowest level. He was quite motivating though. He talked about taking your own destiny in your hands instead of looking for a job. He said we have to be entrepreneurial to be able to afford a meaningful life. He even went round to ask questions like how much each of us earn and the highest was a girl who worked for her family and earned an irregular salary of ₦150,000. Most people were earning from between ₦25,000 - ₦50,000 and some have been working for over 5 years. After all the motivation, he came down to telling us how we can earn our right in the company and it involved us paying ₦40,000. [img]https://media./images/e4937835fe76bb25451757d36776513a/tenor.gif[/img] ₦5,000 of the money would be used for the registration, and ID card while the remaining ₦35,000 will be used for training materials for us. He said it was important we do this because it is something that gives us a right to a place in the system. A place we can pass on to our kids. After all the talk, he wanted to know which of us had the guts to forge ahead and it we did we should jump up with vigour (something like that). Me, I took my time to stand up, of which made them to single me out.Oh, the time was about past 3pm. I got outside and was asked why. I said I took my time. Then they asked if I thought there was something I have that I could contribute to the organisation and I said no. I was then told to sign out and I bade them goodbye.

Whenever I get any email for an interview that looks remotely like this: OFFICE OF THE HEAD OF HUMAN RESOURCES EMPIRE GROUP Plot 1A Block B8, CMD jubilee road beside Magodo Brooks Estate North Gate, Magodo Lagos. Dear Applicant, LETTER OF INVITATION Prior to your recent application via our online advertorial page, we are pleased with your background. In view of this you have been Shortlisted to be INTERVIEWED at our LEADERSHIP WORKSHOP (EMPIRE NIGERIA) Date: Monday 6th May 2019 Time: 10am prompt ASPECTS ASSESSED DURING THE INTERVIEW WORKSHOP : 1) LEADERSHIP 2) INITIATIVENESS 3) ASSERTIVENESS 4) ORAL COMMUNICATION SKILL 5) ENTHUSIASM 6) SELF-CONFIDENCE 7) TACTFULNESS NOTE: You are required to print out or tender this invitation with a passport photograph at the point of entrance for security purpose. However; it is imperative to confirm your availability, do so by replying to this e-mail. we look forward to seeing you. Dr Briggs (HRM) Tel: +2349011895876 Thanks. It is CFLEAD 2. I don’t really know what they do. It was implied that they give talks but I am not really sure. 3. Okay, let’s say they give talks, how do they secure the contracts? I do know that they bill each company/organisation based on their staff strength but who goes out to secure these contracts. 4. Why do we have to pay to join an organisation/partnership that is able to sponsor its members on trips abroad? 5. For an organisation that is so successful, why is their marketing subpar? Why aren’t they as famous as most consultancy firms like KPMG and McKinsey? After all, we were told by the guy that he met a 3rd generation partner in one of his travels abroad. 6. If you are looking to get motivated and inspired for free, CFLEAD recruitment seminar is the place to go. Listening to them talk makes you reflect and think about the direction in which your life is headed. To which I will be grateful for. They are great at motivating you to take charge of your life. However, what I see them as is an MLM masquerading itself as something else. If you are keen on that type of stuff, good for you. If not, keep searching. PS. I have another interview with BRYMEDOT tomorrow. Will post the details after this. Wish me luck. 9 Likes |

The thing with Kemi is that she tends to say some truth shrouded in a lot of nonsense. She might say for example, "the sky is blue" but will then proceed to talk about the clouds being purple and the sun being pink. The sky is blue alright but the pink sun and purple clouds just make that blue sky fact seem irrelevant. |

I've always heard of the blog and gone there twice but most times all I see are zero comments. Who goes to the blog? And if any of you do, why no comments like you do on Stella, Bella, Linda and laila's. Why is it a ghost town there? I think having a blog filled with comments can be encouraging to the reader to join in the conversation. Or is it that they over moderate their comments because from what I noticed from BellaNaija, there are times they get crazy with the moderation and then relent because of lack of participation. In all, my question is, do you guys visit the blog? |

Well that's according to Kemi Omololu Olunloyo. I saw this on her timeline [img]https://3.bp..com/-nSHIjWYrxNM/W6gDSNoIUVI/AAAAAAAAAF8/ZgRE2BDWDhEOs2dsBJUpLQt4gUxuyqhmwCLcBGAs/s640/Linda%2Bno%2Blonger%2Blives%2Bin%2Bbanana%2Bisland.jpg[/img] So I decided to do some digging. Linda posted these June 7 [img]https://4.bp..com/-qJyqYsZvO34/W6gEPgl7FfI/AAAAAAAAAGI/qD3tnacs2VAN98wgUyuzFHTZ5_5L9sj-wCLcBGAs/s640/linda%2Bsaying%2Bgoodbye%2Bto%2Bher%2Bbathroom.jpg[/img] [img]https://3.bp..com/-RgbJ-ITZViw/W6gEP8bkTWI/AAAAAAAAAGM/UMmKdVL9S-YJGA1KRDDavc1FkqnbPxL5ACLcBGAs/s640/linda%2Bsaying%2Bgoodbye%2Bto%2Bher%2Broom.jpg[/img] She was saying goodbye to her bathroom and bedroom. Most of her followers took it as she moving into her husband/fiancee/babydaddy's house. However with the new development, she probably isn't moving in with him anytime soon. Allegedly. After those goodbye pictures, she started posting pics these pics before she she left for Atlanta in August. Notice that the room looks smaller than the bedroom she was saying goodbye to. [img]https://4.bp..com/-HJU31SuoQBs/W6gGQvxsLsI/AAAAAAAAAGc/VwMJsz4byWwGOlSqhJQnUBRXAL-xrXajACLcBGAs/s640/linda%2527s%2Broom.jpg[/img] Question is, could Kemi be right? Or it is just one of those her episodes again? Hmm. |
