I had to create an alternate moniker just because of this post. After 3 years of searching for job, I just got one as an administrative staff in a federal university through one of my uncles, although I graduated with 3rd class.

Truely nothing is too hard for God to do. Just believe in him and he shall bring it to pass. Lalasticlala please help me share my testimony

Big congratulation to you, may Allah bring my own very soon....

Regardless of how the OP got the job, let me state something that is happening now.
We that we are in a time when employers look beyond certificate qualification. They are looking for someone who will get the job done.
Just recently, the director of my institution said something.
He said "We are looking for a good individual to work in our proposed information centre but I am yet to find someone capable. All I see is people coming to tell me 'sir I have a degree in mass communication' That is not what I want. I need someone who will do the job well regardless of paper qualification. If he has a good paper qualification, that is a plus"

The point is, it is good to have good paper qualification but make sure you have the necessary skills to get the job done if not, someone will lesser qualification but with better skills will win over you.
I work in IT as senior staff of a large company.

Recently we had a guy come in with his shiny well formatted CV bearing all sorts of CCNAs and MSSCEs and NIITs and all other such nonsense.

We took him to our server room...the guy couldnt tell our firewall from our switches. I pointed out our SIP server and asked him what it was and what it did...he saw all the SIM cards and said...wait for it....3G modem!

kicked him right out the window.

congratulations to you bro but the truth is you didn't get that job with your 3rd class certificate, your uncle got you the job.

you can get a job with 3rd class certificate but it is like a Carmel passing through the eye of a needle.

people should be putting put complete stories not incomplete ones that will give job seekers sleepless night. cos we know it is not as easy as you wrote it.
Re: I Just Got A Job In A University With My 3rd Class. by spafu(m):
Congrats. But it is important to let you know that God is not unfair. Your uncle used his position to put you there and in so doing denied others who may have outperform you had the recruitment been subjected to transparent process. Mind you, even an armed robber could still attribute his successful operations and riches to God. But for all intents and purposes, will God in His throne take that credit? Sure, let first class holders down to pass holders get jobs, but let equity and Justice be our guiding principles, rather than who you know. Congrats once more.

Congratulations Op. This shows that God is a respecter of no man or degree when it comes to blessing a person. Pls go for your PGD still. God bless!
Oga don't mention God here. He clearly stated he got it through (because of) his uncle's influence.

As an administrative staff. Thanks
What is the thank God inside after getting it via your uncle's influence. Better hope its a genuine appointment!

For me this is still part of the corruption. By the way how do u guys come out with 3rd class. I cannot for the life of me figure how one can play away or study so hard at the uni and be rewarded with 3rd class. Just sad.

Congrats.

Meanwhile, what first came to my mind is how you will soon become a Master of Force according to Zimbardo's Theory(SPE); in your role or duties to students.
.....forgetting that what you have is grace.
I always get devastated even when those Admin Staffs with O'Level results blasting students when approach for little clarification.

May God help you.

Y are people like u so short sighted and bitterhuh he got a job cant u just congratulate him without sarcastically condemning him?
there a lot of 3rd class grads out there living large perhaps even better than 2.1 or 2.2 so whats your grudge all about asking if its a genuine one or if his uncle helped him?
