Non of them.... The only high demand profession is software engineering

Kutunban:
Software engineering is becoming less demanding because of AI. Microsoft and other tech giants recently layed off 5000 software engineering employees. I saw it on techcrunch.

Learn oil drilling or Blockchain technology.

I see people chanting cybersecurity and blockchain everywhere. OP, kindly strike both of them out your options. You can't learn either of them in 6 months not to talk of 2 weeks. Furthermore, cybersecurity requires more than just learning or knowing, you need certifications, which must be renewed annually. The cheapest certification costs around $1k, factor in renewals and see if you have the funds. You also need high-end PC with sophisticated specifications. You should also know that you can't work remotely; you can't be in Nigeria and work in the US as a cybersecurity expert. There seem to be a global data policy to that that you can't transfer a country's data to another foreign country.


Meanwhile, you should know that as a cybersecurity expert, only banks can employ you in Nigeria. Or which institution do you think have more at stake to protect? Now consider how much you're going to spend on certifications, even as a SOC analyst, add that to the cost of annual renewals. Now compare that to the job role where HR will offer ₦150k to ₦200k.

Before making decisions, get In-depth knowledge and know your potentials.

You guys should go and learn hand work .. electrical, plumbing etc. I have been living comfortably as an electrician for almost 15 years with wife and children.

Paying school fees, house rent, [b]buying car [/b]and land, planing for future etc.

Hand work still pays by far.. I wonder why so many young boys are shying away from it lately.

Blockchain technology. It is not something you can learn is two weeks though.

The above statement isn’t entirely accurate. In Nigeria, there tends to be a strong emphasis on certifications, but in other regions, certifications are often secondary and do not guarantee employment unless backed by proven skills. Employers are generally more concerned with the value you can bring and the practical expertise you demonstrate, rather than just a certificate. I know professionals in the industry who hold no cybersecurity certifications, and I’ve also come across certified individuals who have never even worked with a router.

Don’t get me wrong, certifications are valuable, but they don’t guarantee you a job. You still need to sharpen your skills and demonstrate your capabilities. And by the way, who says a SOC analyst can’t work remotely from anywhere, including Nigeria? There are lot of Nigerians working with European companies while living and working remotely from Nigeria.
