CareerRe: Engineering Graduates & Practitioners- Share Your Experience During Your IT by mayprince(op): 9:22am On Nov 12, 2019
farady:
Okay depending on your location you will need to physically drop your applications with any of the IOCs, servicing companies like Schlumberger, Saipem, Dormanlong etc. I would have said visit their websites but less than 1% will respond. If you are in Lagos, just taking upon yourself to walk along the streets of VI and Lekki Phase 1. Funny thing is that near all of these companies especially the servicing group do not have sign boards. So you will do plenty of asking, like one guy on this thread that said it was a security man at of the banks on the Island directed him to a servicing company where he dropped his application.

Since you are already a graduate with a post graduate degree, I will advice you specify in you are willing to learn and gain experience. Include in your CV or application skills you have already acquire like being able to use the computer and good with Microsoft packages (e.g word, excel and PowerPoint). If you are not yet good in them please go register and learn. If you can add MS Project, very good. Don't put money in front oh. Say you are ready to work pro bono (free of charge) cheesy. Above all pray to God and commit your plans to Him, pray for His divine favour.

You can also reach out to beloved church members too.
I don't know if you can also help in recommending industry for elect elect engr in Ibadan. Thanks

OOH.. sorry I don't but when working with them, you can make their packages and their footprint. For simulation you replace them with an instrument that communicates on the same protocol as they wiring up the instrument to your control device in their place. E.g. terminal for all USART devices, SPI Debugger etc
If simulation is your target: go with virtual device.
If PCB is the target, verify your set-up on a solder-less board and you might want to add KiCAD as an alternative to Proteus; it is open source and has many circuits and footprints that will cost you time to sit and create on Proteus all for free. You can straight after installation sketch your circuit and proceed to PCB from there.
Thanks for this....simulation is my target tho

CelebritiesHip-hop’s Next Billionaires: Richest Rappers 2019 by mayprince(op): 6:28pm On Jun 14, 2019
Back in 2007, Jay-Z made a bold statement in song about both his lyrical prowess and his future financial fortunes: “I’m already the G.O.A.T.–next stop is the billie.”
Sure enough, Forbes declared him hip-hop’s first billionaire earlier this month. The news caught the attention of observers around the world—not only due to the breadth of Jay-Z’s financial achievement, but because of what it means for others looking to follow in his footsteps.
“Jay-Z’s entire life is the real blueprint,” says hip-hop pioneer Fab 5 Freddy, longtime host of the show Yo! MTV Raps. “He’s one of the best examples in our lifetime of one who’s truly achieved the American dream and billionaire status.”

Naturally, Jay-Z tops this year’s ranking of hip-hop’s richest stars. Who will be the next billionaire from the rap world? The answer is almost certainly one of the names below.

5. Drake
$150 million
The 32-year-old Canadian is the youngest on this list by a decade, but he’s quickly gaining ground on hip-hop’s elder statesmen. Drake’s fortune grew 50% over the past year, boosted by holdings ranging from real estate to his Virginia Black whiskey, as well as a lucrative tour and new residency at the XS Nightclub in Las Vegas.

“Every year, we just want to get more prepared and better at touring and better at things that make money,” he told Forbes in 2013 (his average gross has since surged from $500,000 to more than $2 million per stop). “That’s pretty much my objective every year, other than making good music.”

4. Kanye West
$240 million
A onetime protégé of Jay-Z, the superproducer has been making headlines recently for his Sunday Service, an invitation-only get-together mostly in Southern California that is reportedly frequented by the likes of Courtney Love and Tyler, the Creator. He took the show on the road in April for a Coachella service on Easter Sunday featuring appearances by Chance the Rapper, DMX and a gospel choir—while hawking socks and “holy spirit” sweatshirts. But selling church clothes alone won’t be enough to push West into ten-figure territory.

3. Diddy
$740 million
“I started my business career at age 12, delivering newspapers,” Diddy explained two years ago in our centennial issue, where we named him one of the world’s greatest living business minds. “Since then, I’ve always understood that if I give the customers my best and service them differently, whether music, clothing or vodka, I’ll get a return on my hard work.”

The artist formerly known as Puff Daddy dips to No. 3 on this list as industry trends weigh on some of his holdings, including cable network Revolt and clothing line Sean John (though Diddy has sold much of his stake in the latter, he retains a sizeable piece). But Ciroc, the main driver of his fortune, is growing again after case volumes fell from all-time highs in recent years—making the impresario perhaps the most likely candidate to join Jay-Z in the billion-dollar club.


2. Dr. Dre
$800 million
It’s been five years since Dr. Dre proclaimed himself a billionaire, but Forbes still doesn’t agree with the assessment made in the wake of Apple’s $3 billion 2014 purchase of his Beats By Dr. Dre headphone line. The superproducer owned an estimated 20%-25% of the company at the time; of the $2.6 billion Apple paid upfront in cash, another $295 million was earmarked to cover debt payments, leaving Dre with a little over $500 million.
Even with the vesting of his final slug of Apple stock last summer, Dre hasn’t quite made it into billionaire territory. He has spent heavily over the years on property (he paid $40 million for Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen’s Los Angeles estate) and charitable donations (along with Beats cofounder Jimmy Iovine, he gave $70 million to start a school at USC). And with his formal involvement at Apple seemingly wrapping up, Dre will likely need to get back on the festival circuit—or start a new company—if he’s to make good on his 2014 declaration.


1. Jay-Z
$1 billion
Though he’s hip-hop’s first billionaire, Jay-Z’s lead on the rest of the pack is even larger if his entire family fortune is taken into consideration: He and wife Beyoncé are now worth a combined $1.4 billion. So much for the notion that music is a dying business.

“To convince artists that you can’t be an artist and make money … was the greatest trick in music that people ever pulled off,” Jay-Z told Forbes in 2010. “I think the people that were making the millions said that.”

EducationA Student Of Obafemi Awolowo University Narrates His Experience So Far On Campus by mayprince(op):
A student of the Obafemi Awolowo University shares his experience so far on facebook.

His experience during his stay goes thus:

OAU is a great place to learn and grow. Very strong alumni relationships. Your studentship is bound to bring experiences you can learn from. I’m not an old man but courtesy of OAU, I have permanent life friends that I am certain we will be together for long and permanent enemies too who we can’t just sit at the same table without someone throwing the other a blow. I’ve met and interacted with various types of people.
I could have gone to UI as at then. But I’ve never for a day regretted the decision to come to OAU. The Union was(is) a good place to learn how human beings behave. Most people can sell their integrity for a very thin slice of cake. For someone brought up to believe public money should be guarded and kept for public use, I arrived OAU and discovered some didn’t get the same home training. My experiences from that period contributes to my doubts on if Nigeria can ever be good. Young boys who have absolutely no reason to steal still do it.
There are great lecturers who have distinguished themselves over years in the academics with good reputation. I am yet to meet a poor teacher in OAU. I have only met Lecturers who cannot really transmit the knowledge. But I’m yet to really see a lecturer undeserving of being one. Very sound minds are on the campus.
For those of us whose fathers cannot squeeze out private university fees, OAU became a sort of paradise.
The dream of those who established the institution is still alive even if faint. They wanted a place where minds could interact. For learning and culture. Sports and struggle. That’s what it is known for still even if recent events are attacking this legacy.
For those who opt for OAU. It is the best place to do what you have in mind as a student. You want to dance? Welcome. You want to party? Welcome. You want to go to church and pray your soul away? Welcome. You want to read? Welcome Bro. You want to be serious? Kaabo. You want to be unserious? Welcome too.
You will end up doing what you want. That’s just it.
The experience cannot be gotten elsewhere. It would be wrong to paint an all-nice picture. There are challenges. Some of them have led to long-standing agitations which I was involved in actively. All the same, it isn’t all-bad too.

BusinessBusiness Of Soccer: Soccer Teams And Valuation By Forbes(photos) by mayprince(op): 6:26pm On Jun 02, 2019
It's still raining money for the world's most valuable soccer teams because they attract an incredible number of fans inside stadiums and in front of televisions, particularly for the Champions League.
Sponsors salivate, paying more and more money to attach themselves to these teams, knowing their players are global billboards whose likenesses are embedded in the hearts and minds of billions.
Bottom line: The 20 most valuable teams are worth an average of $1.75 billion, 3.4% more than last year. In euros (the base currency used for the valuations), the average team value is 1.56 billion, 8.8% more than the previous year. The average revenue and operating income (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) for the 20 most valuable teams during the 2017-2018 season were $499 million and $77 million, respectively.

Just an FYI: Revenues and operating income are for the 2017-18 season, converted to U.S. dollars based on average exchange rates during the 2017-18 season. Team values are enterprise values (equity plus net debt) and are calculated in euros and converted to U.S. dollars and British pounds based on April 19, 2019, exchange rates. The values include the economics of the team's stadium, but exclude the value of the real estate. Operating income is earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, player trading and disposal of player registrations. Debt is interest bearing borrowings (including stadium debt) and is based on April 19, 2019, exchange rates.
