As an SSCE holder, and a holder of Diploma in Ict and graphics certificate from a reputable computer institution.

I saw an advert here on Nairaland for a secretary/ computer Operator.. So I quickly send my cv to the provided email address not knowing that the job was for BSc holders with a good knowledge in corel-draw and not for an SSCE holder with a good knowledge in corel-draw. If I had known that too I wouldn't have bothered applying. But as a desperate young guy in my early twenties that is in need of a job in order to save money to further my education I quickly apply for the job.



So yesterday I got a text message for an interview that will hold that same day, I then called the number in the message to confirm and to know the kind of job I applied for, after confirming I then prepared and went for the interview that would hold on Lagos Island, though I stay in Somolu but I was not bothered about the distance as I thought that Lagos Island jobs pay are higher than those on the mainland.


I got to the interview venue and I also saw a lot of people that came for that same interview, Bsc holders, Hnd, Nd but I was the only ssce holder present in the interview venue. Interview started by 11am but most people where sent out of the venue because they have no Corel- draw knowledge, though they have knowledge of MS Office package but the job requires one with good graphics designing knowledge.

So it go to my turn. I tendered my CV to the manager, he then asked me what I can do as an SSCE holder, and I told him all I can do with Corel-draw and ms office package as a computer operator, the Manager then ask me to wait for them to test me. I waited and I did the test so after the test I was told to come back today.

I went there today again for another test which I did, was the told by the HR to drop my credentials that she would call me.

I left the interview venue and when I got home I got a call from the HR that they have gone through my credentials an application and that they are willing to consider me for the job but I should come back to the office again, though I didn't feel good about going back because of the #300 t-fare am going to use again in this hard Nigeria economy. But at least I was happy, thanking God that have finally got a good job that will pay me well on the Island. When I go to the office I was tested again this time it was about typing on word and designing on corel-draw but I did it anyway.

We now got to the issue of salary, I was asked about my salary expectation, I told them to pay me according to the company's salary standard for that job position but they insist I mentioned the amount, I now told them am expecting nothing less than 30k but the HR said 30k is too much.

Note: I will still have to transport myself to work everyday with #300, not to talk of feeding and other expenses.


I then asked the HR how much they are willing to pay, she then said 20k...


I will have to transport myself, eat, and all inside 20k..too bad...Though they asked me to come back tomorrow if am interested so i can start work on Monday.. But I don't think am going to go.

It would have been better if #300 daily t-fare was not part of the job.

So Nairalanders can you do this kind of job/have you done this kind of job before.. Please how do you cope or save money?

So, I heard that a branch of an oil and gas company closed up it's Abuja branch recently. I didn't know how to react to the news because I didn't want to blame the company (I mean, we're in a recession). But I also didn't know what to do with the thoughts that were running through my mind; what will the staff do? What preparations did they make for them? What compensation will they get? And then I thought, maybe they got a heads up, but really, is there anything like that?

If you're like me, and you believe there's nothing like a heads up, you prolly have an exit plan already. But if you believe you'll get a warning and you don't have an exit plan, then you need to step back and have a rethink, because if you’re in a paid employment by someone that’s not you, you’ll need an exit plan.

An exit plan doesn’t mean you leave your employer stranded. On the other hand it’s more of understanding from the day you were employed that the system is not designed to make you prosper, rather you must capitalize on the system and bring out your success.

Don’t shoot the messenger, but I’ll like to say that companies sometimes, to improve performance or productivity, periodically review and adjust their business plans and processes. Hence, the emergence of new capital, changes in ownership, or changing economic circumstances can often lead to re-organization and restructuring within a company. So, it is not uncommon for job losses to result, and in some cases it may be the only way for a company to move forward and thrive.

Thing is, as employees, we fail to realize that there are other stakeholders, in fact, the ultimate stakeholders are the shareholders / business owners.

What to do?
