It's almost 5 years now after service and it's been terrible. I mean very bad, I had to go back to the village late last year when everything turned out to be getting worse. I'm always ashamed I'm still being fed by my parents. It's bee a shameful and disgusting experience so far. |

Tri7nity:Served in 2019 as a Graduate Assistant in a University in South South,. Being that I read a course (Petroleum Engineering) in the university that required strong connection to get a job (My 400L IT na connection I use get am) and I even graduated with a Second Classs Lower, I knew it was gonna be really hard out there. I used my life saving at the time (About 100k) to buy a London Used laptop and started learning programming while serving. Before the end of my service year, my house was burgled and my laptop stolen, I almsot lost hope. Heck, I went to a Babalawo to help me retrieve my laptop but the baba na cruise, nothing worked. After service year, my HOD in the university tried to get my retained as I was really helpful to them, and the department actually needed staffs, it was a new faculty, barely 2 years old, but omo, Graduate Assistant work for University na still connection. The university were to pay us extra stipends as corpers, but they didn't pay it monthly, everything was lumped up and the whole 11 months paid at the end of service year, totally around 120k (12k per month). I used 50% of the money again to get a second hand laptop from a friend this time (The guy sha gave me a dying laptop), continued my learning. Need to add I was also trading forex and binary initially too, but stopped after several losses. I went home after the university work no work out and my rent almost expiring. 3 months later, I miraculously got an Oil and Gas job without knowing anyone, just went to the interview, passed the written and oral test and got the offer. 170k net exclusive of HMO, lunch and other benefits, also got a brand new laptop. I was doing the work, used the new laptop to be learning programming, this time, more slowly cos of the burden of work. 2020, Covid year...I was part of those "sacked" as Covid hit the oil industry hard. Meanwhile, before being sacked, we stayed at home for 3 months doing nothing, just collecting money every month. I used that time to accerlerate my learning, I started programming by learning Python so it was easy for me to apply that to data science. The sack came and I used the opportunity to apply for internships in tech, I got Data Science internships where I wasn't even paid. I learned while also applyng to Oil and Gas jobs and even went for interviews. Long story short, God has been faithful, today I earn with multiple tech skills I acquired over the years. Still building capacity, while thanking God for how far I've come, and how far I trust He can still take me. Don't despair guys, equip yourselves with relevant skills and keep pushing. |

Galaxyss:Ur signature's giving me vibes.. On the topic... Being underemployed is not entirely a bad thing. The self harm is staying that way for an overly extended period... It's never easy, the opportunities are there, seeing them and having the capacity to benefit from them is the real deal. Like I said, it's not easy but when you're up there, you'll be surprised at others finding it difficult... |

Michaelbabs51:thank God we all have understanding parents. Why don't you try teaching jobs in top private schools around your vicinity, while still feeding from your parents for the time being and save your salary and start business with it |

Michaelbabs51:This was the route I took two years ago when things became worst. Had to leave Lagos for my village (I was popular around abule egba, iyana ipaja, up to cement bus stop. I walked that road everyday searching for job until I gave up). I advice you to push harder for employment so that the unemployment won't go longer. Believe me, from my experience, the longer it goes, the harder for any company to accept you. i have been to interviews and two questions mostly disqualify me. The first one is what have I been doing since 2015 (trust me, they will make sure they know what you have been doing since being unemployed. I've tried to lie but it was of no use). The second is my body language. I have lost confidence, I have lost the ability to be employed by someone without being naive (it is difficult to explain to you on writing). As for those saying I'm lazy or I made up a story, well, you can choose to say or believe whatever you like. I wasnt expecting much response on the post. My major concern was for the corper to not make the mistakes I made (which is so much I couldn't write everything here). Thank you to everyone for your contributions. And no matter what situation we find ourselves in this country, God is good. microbiology bsc |

aronski:You're not "bound to follow any processes..." Here are a few tips for you: 1: Have a good internet-enabled smartphone 2: Build good relationships with [forward-thinking] people 3: Join groups, where you can easily network with other people & let them be aware of your employment status 4: You have to provide value cos Money follows value. You can't just expect people with money to hand out money to you cos of some paper Degree Certificate 5: Research about the job opportunities in your field of study 6: Streamline your job search, you don't have to apply for every jobs you see 7: Start applying for jobs before you're done with your NYSC 8: Endeavour to enroll in subsidized Professional Courses during your NYSC, as this would boost your knowledge, connect you with like-minds, make your CV look good etc 9: Gather relevant experiences & learn how to optimize your CV as at when due. You can't use the same CV to apply for every job, you've to be dynamic with that 10: Settle all fronts, spiritually. ✍️ ...drops pen |

You can't afford to be an ordinary book person, you need to be a street guy. Street in the right sense I mean -look out for what's happening around you and put your head and spirit. Most importantly go get educated on wealth creation , Nigeria is too blessed a place for you to claim ain't nothing on your hands. |
