Very sad

A job of probably $120 per Month

Kylekent59:
The outsource manager kept to his word, but the top managers could sack him if he didn't do as requested by them.


I remember as a fresh graduate, I went for an exam in one of the production companies. I was sure of what I wrote. Three mathematical-based questions. After the exam, we were told to go home. After three days, someone in the company told me that everyone failed the exam.

I even gave our first class and one of my lecturers the questions, and they said I solved them excellently.


That was when I knew the company had played with our emotions.

My sister's friend gave me a call and linked me to an international job where I earn about 970k plus a month.

You have to man up and move on Op.

I applied as a contract staff at Nestle around May last year. I finished my youth service the following month and i was called up for aptitude test by an outsource firm. On the very day of the test we were checked in and addressed by the outsource staff. I guess some of the applicant had influential persons linked to the industry who promised to help them get the job. They were just there to fulfil all righteousness. The outsource manager said that very day that, he wouldn't condole nepotism and God fatherism. He said he won't forward the name of those who had someone but couldn't pass the aptitude test and interview. He wants a level playing ground probably at this stage.


The test was conducted and i was called for interview after a month interval. After the interview i got a success mail and i was called for medical. I met other applicants who were successful at Nestle clinic for medical. After our medical we all exchanged contact and looking forward to resume in no distant time. We did medical last year August. Sadly, we weren't contacted to resume throughout last year. No one among us was asked to resume. I was so apprehensive and perturbed as a fresh graduate. I assume i had gotten the job after a success mail for medical. Then why the delay? No one among us had resume yet. I felt so bothered. Although i didn't loosen up.


I was applying and going for interview. My uncle came around late last year to check up on us. He asked about my plan and i told him nothing but to secure a job. I relayed everything to him and he was full of amazement. He said he knew someone related to a King and the king has the final say. He asked me to look for money so that he can go with it to influence it since I've done medical. I didn't go with the idea because i was indigent. But as a fresh graduate who's in need of job. I had to empty my account and raise #30,000. I had interview the very day my uncle was asked to come. He went alongside my mum. She witness everything. My uncle gave him the money and my CV. I was told even the king was surprised why i hadn't resumed yet after medical. He promised to settle everything within a week or two.



Unfortunately, nothing was done till this very moment. I had gone to the management who conducted the recruitment process and they were even surprised neither me nor anyone among the name they sent to nestle was called. The outsource management claimed it takes maximum of 6 months to carry out recruitment process for a firm. They assume the top managers in the industry had swapped our names for theirs. The manager of the outsource firm was so concerned that he had to put up a call across and he confirmed to me they had resume since last year. I cried that very day in the outsource office. The manager told me "Welcome to Nigeria." He admonished me to move on. I cried for a fruitless efforts and being swindled by a King. I trekked back home crying like a toddler. I was thinking tif I could call him out on social media or Radio station to refund my money. I can't just let go of that money in this my present condition. He shouldn't have accepted the money having known he had nothing to do. My mum said i should forget about the money. She claimed we're the least of persons to call out such a prominent and influential person. She said she doesn't want problem. My uncle was in support of it but my mum disagree. She claimed the money in question wouldn't make any difference in my life. Perhaps, i don't know the aftermath of my actions.


Please what's your take on this.

madridguy:
I wouldn't have say anything but since its NESTLE i have to say this. My friend has exact experience with NESTLE Nigeria around five years ago.

Infact, I was so annoyed when the guy incharge the process threatned his life for coming for resumption on the stated on the email he got.
I wanted to call the out after getting his pictures from his facebook and also write NESTLE headquarter but my friend his the type with soft balls and he said he don't want his name on media so it won't affect him later in life.

He later got the information that some ogas there changed their names with their own candidates that couldn't pass the exam.

So sorry bro.

Candidlady:
Why would you tell him to forget the money... For how long is he gonna keep forgetting THE MONEY

We live in a country where if you don't know someone that knows someone you are going no_where.. but that don't mean anyone should be taking advantage off cos of their desperation or lack of substance...
Don't be offended please, how old are you? You wouldn't have adviced the young man this way if you have experienced some life threatening situations in Nigeria

Men doing men bad... Op It is your mum iactually feel for

Op get in touch with wazobia fm call out the scam of a king and even your uncle... Idont trust anything bout those gender

hustler2828:
Can you imagine the level of corruption, in a so-called private company? And this is just the tip of the iceberg, think of public parastatals like NNPC, Customs, police, etc. Then factor in tribalism and religion. And one person say Naija go better. It will only get worst. The average Nigerian man is corrupt, wicked, and heartless.

In your shoes I will prepare my opsec, do some osint findings on the top management of the company, and call them out publicly on any of their social media pages. In the worst-case scenario, I will tail them online and do all sorts of information gathering to blackmail them. Imagine the nonsense.

wunmi590:


You allowed a hungry king to swindled you of your hard earned 30k..

King that is not influential, I'm not even expecting g him to collect the 30k from you, knowing fully well that once you get the job, you can do better things for him...

Please put your hope in God and move on..

NESTLE nah like that their top oga be for that place, I've experience in well, almost all the top FMCG company that nepotism attitude....

Weevel77:
A king whose kids and wife live in the US? The king himself was based in US before he came back to Nigeria to become king.. He's a lecturer in one university in US. He is so influential and prominent. His status convince me thinking he isn't such kind of a person.

His family do not live in Nigeria. He visit them often even as a King

UnfairLife7:
same experience from the same organisation. You guys should call them out on social media. I know they own their company but why wasting peoples time and resources with aptitude test and medical when you know you won't employ them. What manner of wickedness is that.

lavylilly:
I would have mentioned 7 companies that I personally experienced what the OP experienced but it not worth it

advanceDNA:
Mayb them use the name of the king swindle you...have u seen the king before?.. na which kingdom?? Mayb na baálę wey dey claim king

hustler2828:
Una try, as for me that top manager will know no peace on line. I will make sure I wreck his online reputation, make his phone number, and email useless. Call him and the company management out on all social media platforms.

Villa12:
Even the king too should not be left out. You collected money from the poor guy and refused to help out. Going by how Op described him. He has the power to fix him up even as a full staff. Maybe he's a type that prefer helping people of his calibre. He doesn't like helping the poor trying to better their lives.

I hope this hit front page maybe they can come across it.

Your experience is heartwretching. It's rare getting to medical and documentation and got denial. This is the level of corruption in the country. One cannot get a decent job without connection. Even for a contract job. They hijack every slot and distribute it among themselves.

I suggest you listen to your mother. It's so sad.

hustler2828:
If na me that king don buy market. I will blackmail the living daylight out of him. But op are you sure the king received those funds? Or a middleman played a fast one in the name of the king? Given his reputation and status, soiling his name for a mere 30k wouldn't be worth it for a king of his caliber.

NoToPile:
Weevel77 listen carefully do not call out any king on SM, your 30k was probably presented as a Gift to him, more like wetting ground for him to help you talk to who he knows in the company. Did he ask for the 30k? Most likely not, your uncle felt the 30k gift will push start the king to talk to those who knows in the company.

Now It didn't work out so you guys can't ask for the 30k back. Infact if you go and meet him one on one can you ask for the envelope back?

If you like allow some peeps to push you unnecessarily.

I am talking as someone that my line of job makes my self and collegues meet with some of these baales and kings a lot. There's a time to do PR and there's a time to not.


As for Nestlé, people around this Agbara axis know how it rolls within the multinationals there, Unilever own nko.

Understand that the top Nestlé management will pay an outsourcing firm for recruitment and normally it should be recruitment process where the best are selected, it is people like you or I who are opportuned to be Ogas that swap the names from outsourcing firm especially as it's for contract staffing

Such may not occur for experienced hires or their graduate trainee program, even if you know someone you will have to be capable.

Reality3080:
na where I weak finish for Nigeria matter na when I hear say dem dey share slot for npower job

Imagine slot over job of 30k per month, as in d man was even feeling fly on phone n we were both at an eatery

He was even saying it confidently that he has 5 slots, I just look d man shake head

frozen70:
If the king is influencial and respect himself, he wouldn't have collected any money from you till the job is done in this case because as king he claimed to be, no body will assist him and expect him to pay him money

So the money he collected was for his selfishness

So go with your uncle and make a request for your money that you need it as you have to continue another search

I don't even know if to trust that your uncle on this or not to trust him

As it is now
I don't know who is doing you

Weevel77:
My mum was with my uncle that very day. It was my mum who handed the money to the king so he would understand how serious it is for a mother to come along out for his son. They gave him my CV also. I have been there two times with my uncle and myself alone. He's a busy type. Either not in the country or travelled to other states for meetings here and there. He doesn't recognise me very well. I believe they gave him the money. He probably see it as a gift.

Villa12:
Unless they call him out, i doubt if that king will ever give him the money. He probably see the money as a gift but failed to help out after collecting the gift.

I'm even imagining how can such a big personality can't help with a contract job in the territory he's governing as a King. I don't know why i feel the king do not have the intention of helping him. He's only deceiving him.

Weevel77:
you can imagine. This is so annoying seriously. Why are they deceiving us then? They should stop publicising their vacant position since they already have their candidates to occupy those vacant position

So God fatherism has been in existence before today?

Stevenbright:
It is pure wickedness. They make unsuspecting individuals to go through the recruiting processes (stages) expending their time and financial resources in the process.

They will then use the recruitment data so generated to recruit connected candidates or candidates who pay for job slots.
