Your responses will be highly appreciated thanks.

For me, I will take up the job anyday, anytime because I have absolutely nothing against them and my faith isn't against it...

But if as a person, your religion or faith is against it and you care so much about your religion, I will say don't take up the job because you wouldn't have job satisfaction owing to guilty conscience. Also, you'll be cheating your employer because your productivity definitely isn't going to be at the optimal level as a result of some reservations you nurture. .

All the best at whatever choice you make. .

Whats your view about

1. Working in a Brewery
2. Working with pharmaceutical companies that manufacture Contraceptives
3. Working with banks that provide loans and do business with these controversial industries
4. Working with companies that produce Ammunitions
5. ETC

Life is fully of imperfections and controversy, good, bad and ugly. You don't expect everyone to share same values. Our values orientation defines us but that doesn't make us near perfect. For everything with a disadvantage has advantages also and vice versa. Every industry is there for a purpose and the Tobacco company is one of the many industries established to fulfil purpose.

THINGS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM- Just follow your conscience

I believe that working in a tobacco is equivalent to a bank

KILLING MILLIONS TO MAKE MILLIONS. SMOKING IS A SLOW NOTION SUCIDE

When you get the offer letter, your question becomes valid. You have not even been shortlisted.

Please, are you sure about the salary?

It really boils down to personal philosophy.

Personally I don't even try to apply talk less of being called for interview.

Though nobody is perfect but working in a situation whereby I understand fully well that I am indirectly killing others and creating a lifelong problem through cancer and what have you is a NO No for me.
