I graduated with same 2.1 since 2010 and I have never had a reasonable job. Guess what, I never beg for food or fail to meet my needs.

How it happens, I don't no

Depends on the course of study and besides you need to be more creative in your self development approach, job will come.

But before you secure your dream job try and keep your self busy with any training of your choice.
When preparation meet opportunities it results in celebration.

I graduated with 2:1 and 2rd best graduating student in my department.. but I have to throw away my certificate after 5yrs and enter the street.. now am not regretting!! Am very happy with myself
You " had" to, not have to.It's amazing that a lot of graduates can not differentiate between present tense and past tense. I mean this is primary school stuff.No chance such graduates could ever pass GRE's verbal reasoning measure.

This country will never progress if all we do going to school is to have the mentality of working under someone or searching for job after school....

There are many opportunities online with the right information, which will infact make you earn monthly more than the basic salary of a president.

But NO! We all want to work in shell and Access Bank.
Not everyone can be a boss, we are not created equal. It's okay to desire to get a job after graduation, stop compounding issues for people.

I am not against University degree. I just believe majority of the degrees they are peddling are totally useless and worthless.

If you are not studying STEM then you have no business in a University.

And when you even contemplate the fact that Nigerian Universities are shit-tier with the best rated Nigerian university at 2,000th position globally you begin to understand that its all a pure utter waste of time.

The Institution awarding you the degree is not even considered a university by many western Universities to the point that they do not recognize degrees awarded by majority of Nigerian universities.
Correct,most people cant even get a job abroad with a Nigeria degree.

Practice on d app daily.. Be ready to dedicate good 7 months for it.. U go look back and smile.. Note im not a tutor o.. But i have some materials that can help ü through d journey.

It's a mistake to come out from the University with a certificate and no sellable skill.
Most of us made that mistake, our children must not repeat it.

It took me 5 years after NYSC to get a 'good' job. My saving grace was that I took a 25k job, that opened the way for a 50k (plus commission) job, which in turn opened the way to where I am today.

By the grace of God, none of my children will be doing University education alone; except you are reading medicine or nursing.
While in the University, the child must be in a skill acquisition program along with the tertiary education.

Op, wait no longer!

Enter the street and get your hands dirty with a legit hustle. If it's learning a skill, learn a skill as long as you have a passion for it and it's marketable.

There's no time to check time!

I hear a bottle of cooking gas is about 8k and petrol maybe sold for 300/litre before the end of the year.

Enough of the wailing. The time to act is now!

Best of luck!

3rd class like me am still praying 4 God's intervention 2 and half years am still jobless while some that did not even attend the four walls of a university are getting jobs. My brother nah grace of God
What is happening in Nigeria is not grace of God! It is the result of the fact that Nigeria has failed as a state!

Qualified people are left jobless to die of hunger while misfits and illiterates are getting employed especially into government jobs, and you call it grace Yet same Nigerians will be complaining that the country is not moving forward.

The devil is in charge of this country Nigeria! God has since abandoned Nigeria as the people don't want to be saved. God can never be linked with a devilish entity called Nigeria.

Earning money online is now so easy. All you need is just your Phone & an Internet connection.

Your certificate doesn't guarantee u a job..... Being productive will.... It shows school didn't pass through you.... U only attended the university to get certification... And now u have it.... But can't be productive with the knowledge u acquired...


Sad....

No sir, I beg to differ and here is why; I graduated with 2.1 as well, i am very productive and i have some computer skill ranging from website design, DBA, Graphics and i am very intelligent to my some extent. I also will add that i am good with event center decorations (something i learn when i was at the university). you can give me a project that has been writing by someone and i will return same project to you with only 15-25% plagiarism rate.... I can go on and on...

Now sir, I was unemployed for a long time and currently underemployed. I survive currently cause i am tough.

What kind of jobs have u been applying for?
We must not all work in offices and knot tie.
After nysc, I immediately picked up secondary sch teaching job, 40k. Money I made from nysc I used in picking up msc form. I was teaching in secondary, doing msc and ofcourse missing classes, but was also making money doing lessons for students. All the while I kept applying for jobs.
I wrote recruitment test for FBN, spdc, mtn, vmobile, stanbic ibtc, standard chartered Bank and union Bank. It was when I started writing my thesis that Union Bank clicked for me. 1 year inside union Bank, msc done and dusted. Immediately I picked up PhD forms. Years down the line I'm a PhD holder.
Morale? Get busy.
Applying for jobs is not an excuse to be idle. Schools just resumed, send your CV to schools you'll be surprised. I advised someone on this, she got two offers. One sch paying 35k and another paying 50k. She took the 50k. Weeks later, she told me that teachers make cash from lesson in the sch, lesson there is 20k per month, gather 3 students do lesson for them and you are paying yourself.

Funny enough you studied Chemistry and education I think, wtf are u looking for with a safety certificate when your line is education and you can use that as a spring board? Except you really don't know Chemistry well, do you know how many parents will pay for lessons for their science kids to study Chemistry and physics? Dude,....
I am a Master class when it comes to chemistry, man forget it the Hussle no just easy as u dey type am so, I stay in the north, the last teaching job I did was 15k a month, is this the kind of job you want me to do and go for M.Sc? I got another teaching job now 25k a month in another state, I just relocated and in just a month in the school, the students all like me, everybody now sees me as the best teacher in the school but those bullshit does not really count as we all know.... You are here typing 50k, 35k teaching job, 20k lessons for 3 student.lols.....naso e easy for your own street? If you know the kind jobs I have done in my life just to survive bro, you for no dey reason me Masters and PhD matter .....if u get job just connect me
