Can I chat you up on the numbers on your site?

Go and search for altschoolafrica on Twitter and Google.

It's a coding online bootcamp for beginners, created by talentql in conjunction with a Nigerian university.

You would register with 10k online, they will send you materials which you would read and prepare for examination.

You must pass those exams to be enrolled into their diploma program, either in front end, back-end or cloud engineering.

The tuition fee is suspended which you would pay when you have started working after your diploma, which is why you must try to pass their exam and get enrolled.

He is software developer.
I'm also a software developer and I have two jobs which are both remote. Both companies are in Lagos while I am in Abuja trying to secure another one with a company in the USA through their Nigerian partner who are training us. Though one of the two companies are kinda shaking but I am still their employee.
Bottom line is for you to learn any IT related skills as it's the new gold mine.

With your church mind, pls which institute in Abuja do you think one can properly learn software development.

Or what guide do you have for someone who is interested learning this skill.

Thank you

Bullshit!



If you're satisfied with your two jobs, why, in the first place, applied for the third one.

Choose what you like. We are not here to be bothered by someone's greediness and insatiability. Period.


By the way, I have a feeling that this post of yours is a co*ked up, a K-legged, co*k and bull story.

It is well oo...

From experience, start up companies will promise you heaven on earth only to disappoint you.

They may have the funds initially, what happens most times is under budgeting. In the end, you'll end up being owed salary.

I have been in the exact same situation as you. I picked the later. Till date, the company still owes me more than 1.2M in salary

Bless you for this, made the same exact mistake and still regret till today, the grass is honestly not always greener on the other side especially with new startups

Don't say I didn't help your destiny.

Just hate topics like this. What kinda question is this na Even before asking, you know what to do. So, do what is best cos you can advise yourself better

Hello Nairalanders..

I am a bit confused right now. I have two remote jobs currently, they both pay me 200k and 150k salary respectively. These two companies have been existing for over 3 years so they have built up structure that one could trust a little over time...

I recently applied for another full-time job, it's a startup that is just moving from ideation phase to implementation. And they are offering me 650k salary a month even though I told them my salary expectation is 500k a month. I will be working 2 days onsite, 3 days remotely.

I am enticed by this new salary and at the same time, my current jobs have built structure that I can trust.

Not to even mention that I occupy a very important position in these two companies: though not a big deal.

Please i am just confused... Just finanlized everything with the company’s management team.. I am meant to resume next two weeks.

You're a farmer. Don't tag yourself with unnecessary fame.
See his last two post on his profile.

Is this the best you can do... I know some people that know me personally here will just be smiling at you..

That I invested in my uncle's farm now turns me into a farmer, lol, and by the way, what's wrong in being a farmer.

I would have given you my LinkedIn profile to connect, but I am here for sensible peoples advice not to show off.

See bitterness on steroids..

Jesus never fails.

Jesus will direct him on the right choice to make.

It's as simple as that.

Please! Very predictable reply. You think you have a monopoly of the bible? Just copy and paste predictable replies by typical Christians who are nothing more than echo boxes for what their Daddies-in-the-Lord said.

He has a brain. Jesus and God and anything Christian-related are nothing more than his moral compass to steer him away if the businesses are crimes or morally wrong.

Even Jesus did not to to pray for everything. He didn't need to pray when he asked Peter to "give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar" or when the temple became a market or calling out the Pharisees for being hypocritical or analyzing why it is hypocritical to stone the prostitûte when you yourself commit sins just as grave.

See why you should invest yourself in understanding the bible and theological history yourself instead listening to your manipulative 'my daddy-in-the-Lord said"?

Think! God gave you a brain -use it. If you have to call God for every little thing you are nothing more than a humanoid with limited programming.

I will be very blunt with my opinion.
Don’t leave the certain for an uncertainty.
Keep the remote jobs and hold them firmly. As for the 650k startup, the stage of the company is still to young to gamble with your present job.
Another angle, if you can combine the 3 remotely( or even on contract) then u can still do that.
But DON’T leave your remote jobs for a start up that isn’t certain. You only consider that if your were currently unemployed.
Thanks

Sad about your experience.

But it's only a single data point to draw conclusions from.
Could have been poor leadership from the startup's management.etc. which may not be in the Op's case.

To the OP, in the Nigerian local parlance, Where una dey see these jobs!

Good luck.

Kobicove:


His salary of 650K is not even assured because the company could fold up tomorrow, you're here talking about increment in salary

The world could end tomorrow, he could get hit by a car tomorrow, a meteor could fall tomorrow and destroy his home...

If he believes in the what the startup is doing and he thinks the management is competent, he should go for it.

A bird at hand.... You know the rest

If you have the skill to almost double your salary, then you are good at what you do. You could take up the new offer and should they be found wanting, find another job.

olagamalin:


Can you find a way to inform your existing employers you got a better offer from another company, requesting they match the salary.. or increase the current one atleast.

Worked for me

I am thinking about this too.

Tell the startup to offer you a 5 year signed contract. If they can't, stick with your current job

Okay sir, thanks so much for the feedback. I appreciate it. The background issue is visible on the smaller screen but perfect on lager screen.
I will do the needful.

It doesn't really matter the gender of the individual. What matters most is the area he/she is very good at. Which comes as a result of "deep self searching" (if I can use the phrase). But most ladies that I know are UI/UX designers and Frontend developers. Probably because these two areas requires little or no Logic/Arithmetics.
Generally, if you are naturally creative and good with graphics, I will suggest UI/UX design.
But you really need to do some facts finding and maybe try each area.
So these are the popular areas as long as web applications development is concerned:
1. UI/UX designer
2. Frontend developer
3. Backend developer
4. DevOps

There are others, but these are the popular areas any serious company must have imo.
I'm a Frontend/Backend developer with some DevOps skills as well because I can host apps on the cloud. I have basic knowledge of UI UX design but I am not good with graphics so I didn't go further.

Finally, I also train and mentor SERIOUS newbies at an affordable fee.

Hopefully all I have said made some sense.

Pls where do you stay in Abuja and how can we meet?

This one is a hungry liar

He is indirectly marketing his website where he offers training because gullible dummies will rush thinking that's how easy it is in real life

This guy is a hungry marketer I bet his shoes are so worn you can smell the atheletes foot fungi
s between his toes.
When last do you all think this bum saw 50k alert?

My dear brother.
Seek God face first, you can ask for a month leave in where you are working presently for you to be able to know more about the 650k job, what it's entails in the job.

Above all, pls BE SMART.
congrats

i wonder too oo

Nice, what aspect of IT are you into??

Working as a software architect and a software engineer in my two current jobs..

I can understand your dilemma.
Let me start by saying that we cannot grow and advance in life without taking some form of risk.
However we must carefully consider the risk involved so that we do not end up losing what we already have.( Although we can always fail and get back up again.)
The options you are considering are the stability and realibility of your current positions and the enhanced financial renumeration but unpredictable nature of the other position.
Most Startups end up going bust within 3 to 5 years from the date of commencement. While those that survive end up thriving and doing very well and if you are well positioned in the start-up,you may very well set up yourself nicely for life.

My advice would therefore be for you to research the business and the industry that the start-up is engaged in. Also the products and services they offering that makes them unique in the market and who are the competition.
Also research how other companies in the same industry have fared over time.

However my experience about businesses and companies is that it is often the people behind the business that determines the success or otherwise of the company. So you must objectively consider who the founders of this start-up are. Are they men and women of integrity and resilience. Do they have the capability to build and grow the company. Their perdigree and history? Are they bankable?
If you can trust the quality of the founders and you can see yourself safely throwing your lot with them for the long run then you should seriously consider taking a chance with them.

But you must be well positioned. Stock options and share holding maybe added bonuses to ensure that their success is your success. They should know the value that you are bringing in and the risk that you are taking going with them.

Good luck

Time to be an employer yourself
