Lol been studying for my interviews. I am yet to get a job here but men there's so many jobs here especially in tech. I had an interview test today that took me like 5 hours cause I needed to turn in my solution in the evening. Started around 11. Had some more interviews yesterday and day before yesterday and have been preparing for my upcoming technical interviews next week so been leetcoding like crazy. The technical test was fairly easy though. I was asked to build a crud application in PHP and upload to cPanel
Someone liked this post and it just reminded me. I got into chile on the 2nd of August. Immediately I got the airbnb I paid for I started sending out applications 🤣🤣. I had like 5 different cvs in English and Spanish and was sending out applications like a mad man.

I no say u get 3 pp and u been to 15 world countries but with whom? It thrills me how a full grown ass man will be subjected to only building his life without supporting others, no wife, kids, like how do u guys over 30 or mid 40s consider life journey alone.. Wasting all this funds to migrate, I rather have my wife give birth in this countries with 10m for my unborn kids in other to gain jus-soil.
And you migrated to Hungary of all countries!

Did you migrate with your wife? If I talk, dem go say I too get bad mouth.

cho cho cho everywhere no good!

Every job I have ever gotten in my life has been from LinkedIn.
Thanks. I need to restart my LinkedIn be that. I gave up on it coz I've not found anything from niger firms on there. But e be like it'll be very useful for/in other places. Someone else also mentioned the exact same thing and when I looked at their profile, it was so basic, like almost empty, it was hard to believe. They got a sec job from a US startup from Nigeria during covid although not a startup anymore.

Funny how nobody's talking about panama as a japa destination when it could be cost effective for studies and business.

Some of their universities are tuition free even for foreign students.
The likes are not really suitable for the type of japa Nigerians like to do unless you are in Techs or related business. You can't be rich cleaning toilets as it beliefs to be in Uk or other western countries. The systems in South and central America are more suitable for retirees from US or UK. The language barrier is also a huge challenge.

Declarations come to pass when you work toward them.

A few months ago, I lost my job at the bank. I didn’t panic because I still had my American job, but the loss definitely affected my living standards. I had been planning to move into a better apartment, but that dream had to wait. Still, I kept my composure and focused on maintaining myself.

At the time, I couldn’t really look for another job I was in the final stage of my master’s degree, and my thesis demanded every ounce of energy I had. Once I presented it, I finally had a bit of breathing room and started job hunting again.

A month later, I landed a role with a company in Canada. I kept searching, though, because I once told Gerrard59 that I would replace my two jobs with three and I meant it.

On Friday, I received another offer this time from a Chilean bank, even better than the one I used to work for. The salary is higher, the benefits are stronger, and the environment seems far more promising. Oh, and I almost forgot I also got an offer from Deloitte Chile, but it was an on-site position, and I had to turn it down.

All’s well that ends well. The university even invited me to pursue a doctorate, but I declined. Right now, I want to work and build wealth. I spent most of my 20s in Nigeria fighting to survive my 30s are for working with relentless focus to defeat poverty, brutally and completely.

Congratulations, Tenza!
Tenza, abeg, the bolded part of your post really resonated with me. I need proper orientation and guidance on how to job hunt for web development roles in a foreign country. I’m spreading my tentacles because I genuinely want to work hard and build wealth. I’m already in my 30s, so I’m very intentional about this journey.

From the very first week I arrived in this country, I’ve been actively job hunting for web development roles. Along the way, I’ve had my fair share of rejections and “sorry” emails. Most advertised positions explicitly require fluent or business-level Japanese.
However, I did manage to secure an interview with a recruiter, and I could tell he was genuinely impressed with my skills—especially during the interview, where I really sold myself. He later sent me the job description and asked for my updated resume to forward.
To the experienced seniors already here in Japan—Gerrard59, blackbriar, and Judecares1—happy holidays! I have two quick questions:
Q1: It’s been over a week since I forwarded my resume, which the recruiter acknowledged receiving. Do you think it would be a good idea to follow up?
Q2: Apart from learning Japanese, what other advice would you give me as I continue sending out applications?
Re: Memoirs From Chile by JESSYNNE: 6:55am On Nov 03, 2025
