Nigerian Graduates Are Mentally Abused By Employers by aooo(op): 10:04pm On Dec 06, 2014
With the situation of things in this country as regards to employment, I think graduates are being mentally abused.
How will you describe a situation where you have 50 minutes for 50 questions. 25 conc mathematics questions(that you will have to work your ass out), that you are still battling with for the next 1hr 30mins. 25 verbal evaluation which is usually the last part. The painful part is you can't access the verbal session without completing the mathematics session.
The verbal session is usually simple but believe me, you would have wasted enough time on the mathematics session.
And mind you not everyone is good with mathematics.
I think workforce, dragnet and the likes should review their approach.

Bro, that's what the level of unemployment in Nigeria has caused. Imagine a scenario where you needed just 20 persons for a position and thousands of people applied, what would you do: cancel the recruitment or engineer means of getting your required 20huh

The truth is most of the applicants who applied for a position are qualified for the job, but weeding needed to be carried out to get "bests of the bests."

Since you can't change the system, my advice is you step up your game. I used to be and still an admirer of Mathematics, but because it only can't make me pass an aptitude test, I started liking Verbal/English
