Went for an interview in a company at ilupeju, last year march. We were four in numbers, I was the last person to be interviewed, though I gave an absolute answers to all the manager questions, and she acknowledge it. But, the first interviewee was pick instantly while the 2nd and 3rd person were disqualified, me being the last person to be interviewed was told to go home that their would call me if there's janitorial space needed again. And the manager liked my reply that i should drop my credentials. On getting home about the next day I heard from someone that connected me to the company that I didn't dress corporate, though I put on a polo and a jean with a sander, I never thought I needed to dress corporate moreover I don't have enough clothes being that I have been jobless for Long. And it is janitorial not an office post. Well they never call or text me and i too accept my L in peace . Now learning how to drive truck, I pray and wish to get a better offer after am done with my apprenticeship. |

Sirseedorf:Half Baked Degree Holders & Semi illiterate Degree Holders, Msc, Phd et all like you makes up 70% of the Messed up Nigeria's Education Sector. The funny thing is these set of mediocre people are everywhere in both low and top government offices across the nation. Even though i understand A good written english isn't a measure of intelligence but Imagine, Take a look at the English you typed. Using "I am, I'm as Am" Using "There as Their" Too many blunders, Yet you illiterate will be shouting up and down that you couldn't get a Job. Nonsense mtcheeew |

My worst experience would be swapping my phone for a lower version so I could raise money to travel from Minna to Abuja for a graduate trainee aptitude test. The test was slated for 4pm, I left Minna 11am and came back 9pm that same day. No feedback till today...lol. I'm in Lagos now and hoping to share my testimony very soon. |

You can partner with a Real Estate firm that's sells lands around you area and make good money. Rather than working for someone you can make good use of your time. Let me know if you are interested helen4: |

[quote author=IyaTola post=120041659][/quote]The funny thing is, different strokes for different folks We actually see things differently. When I lost my job in 2012. It was this GNLD marketing Job that came to my rescue. While people were complaining and cursing them, I saw an opportunity. As long as their is a product to be marketed there is money to be made. I took the challenge of doing marketing job for the very first time in my life rather than subject my young family to hunger. To get started I bought one scanning machine and some products. The scanning machine was the game changer for me I had the liberty to charge whatever price I felt, so I charged from 1k to 5k per person. I went from mechanic workshop to tailors shop to the market to schools, banks and other corporate organizations after sending a proposal to them to come and do a health talk or seminar. My ability to deliver and sound convincing is my meal ticket or otherwise. Men and women would queue up to have their body scanned for a token. (1k-5k) /person depending on my estimate of their worth. I could go home with 10k or 50k in a day most of the days. At least I will go home with something no matter how bad the day went. What I see is this, one man's food is another's poison. One can choose to turn a messy situation into one's advantage. That was what I did. Did I like the work? NO Did I enjoy it? NO SO why did I do it ? I had a family to feed and bills to pay and I was out of job. I couldn't go about begging family and friends for urgent 2k or come online to shamelessly be constituting nuisance begging every now and then while at the same time speaking Ill of legit opportunities which perhaps I find degrading or dirty. I would rather do those degrading and dirty jobs than beg. And guess what, the job that paid me 450k/month came right while I was in the field at one of my GNLD seminar venues. Please don't get me wrong, I am not advocating that everyone does GNLD or forever living products or any similar ones. However I am saying I would rather do those, if they actually pay and not scam in any way. This story was over 10 years ago. I cashed out from it by working hard and not just expecting GNLD to be paying me. God bless every legit hustler on this street. I assure you you will be alright. |
