@Funkygliz its good you read something very well to get the message before saying anything. Like I said earlier, my annoyance was that we were invited for the interview when they knew HND holders were not needed. And mind you i just dropped my CV when the building was still under construction

funskill:
HND is actually equivalent to a year 2 undergraduate going for BS.c, confirm it on google or wikipedia

Bill gate never went to a University, but now he is the world richest man. Albert Estein went to Polytechnic Of Munich, but he later lectured at HAVARD. Charles Lecobucier went to a Polytechnic, but today he is the most greatest ARCHITECT of all time. Nikolas tesla began his career at a polytechnic, but he later a drop out of school, but today he is on of the greatest ENGINEER OF ALL TIME. Also, most tertiary institution in Europe and Asia are all Technical not theoritical orienteted e.g Technical Univesity Of Munich,MADRID,Polytechnic University Of Instanbul,China e.t.c......also most of the best research institution in the world e.g Havard,Stanford Univesity,MIT,CALIFONIA INSTITUTE OF TECH e.t.c are all based on european polytechic model,that is why you see a secondary school graduate in china,europe building and making technological device,and a Nigerian Elect/elect University Graduate will not be able to assemble a simple electric CIRCUIT.

Oyedepo is an OND holder
Sam Adeyemi is an HND holder
Ogun State governor is an HND holder
Oyo State governor is an HND holder
Bill Gate dropped out of school
Nice withdrew from UNILAG while in 200level

I knew some Universities satellite campuses which offer admission to students based on 5 credits in NECO back in the year 2008/2009 without writing JAMB at the initial stage. University of Ibadan: Ilesha Campus, University of Uyo Satellite Campuses, OAU, Adeyemi College of Education campus etc were perfect example as at then: why the fuss?

My brother who is an English Lecturer in one of Nigerian Universities did not have Credit in English Language up till date and he did not hide it from us: he obtained preliminary form and he was given English Language as a course of study latter.

Don't be surprised, some Polytechnic students have better qualifications and professional wherewithal than you: how people like you reason despite being the product of self-acclaimed University is surprising:

[size=20pt]The one big question has always been "Did they force you to go for a HND programme?"[/size]

When others wrote JAMB and passed it, why did you not write/ fail/ meet the cutoff? Since you can always go back to school, or convert your HND to a degree, I don't see the need for your ranting

The best thing for HND holders is to enroll for PGD then proceed for masters degree ...By then they can be higher than the so call Bsc holders unless they also apply for Masters too ;DThe best thing for HND holders is to enroll for PGD then proceed for masters degree ...By then they can be higher than the so call Bsc holders unless they also apply for Masters too

Jj carter. Cmoney was here

Then, polytechnics should be scrapped in the 1st place, what the point of after getting an HND, u den move to degree, it makes no sense.

I understand your point though, but it still make no sense. If all HND holders should go for degree then, HND should be scrapped.

What we need is the Govt to make their policy straight and clear. One man course is everyone's course. There is no blaming OP on this. If poly's were not made available,no one will attend it.

airsaylongcon:
Please what is "cash tellering"?

stonecoldcafe:
Why didn't you write and pass JAMB? Keep learning your bead work please. Focus more on necklace, ear ring and hand chain. Leave tote bags (aint fashionable) alone. God bless

Imagine, I was invited for an interview. In a place i dropped my CV while the organisation was still under construction. On friday i got a text from them inviting me for an interview and the instruction was that you come with two passport and nothing more. But on getting there the HR started asking for CV's and original certificates which he succeded in using to chase most people away and then he came up with the big one "If you are an HND holder please leave" and this was the same organisation that invited me, i didnt apply o, na CV I drop. My question is what crime has HND holders committed?

Omagzee:
you nailed it bro. ONE grate of orijin for u.

My bros that is why u see an average Nigeria rich man will not put any of his Kid in polytechnic and even if the do they av other alternative. Bros though it is not a good thing to av HND and then u go back for degree but the best way to correct the anomaly is to go back and obtained d society place more emphasis on. The truth is the man who gave me the advice finish from Kad poly in 1976 and he told me since then the inequalities has bn there but till date nothing significant has bn done.

So bros why wait for policy to limit and put the blame on society..take for instance my case if av not help my self and go back to sch I wl still a contract staff in the banking sector,but that decision help me so far am now a BO. I know its difficult but bros my advice to poly student is stop at ND do direct to uni after the diploma.

funkyglitz:
Again??I don't see anything wrong if a company needs a particular set of people or class of degree is just like some companies will say they need private uni over federal uni just like a bank I went to submit cv they told me they don't collect my school CV,so I let it go still the same way some will advertise and tell you strictly for MSC or Lagos residents..... it's just normal my dear no need beating up yourself over that just believe in yourself because one day the opportunity will present itself #just my opinion #

Copee:
When I see people saying they are going to the polytechnic, I cant just help but pity them. The discrimination in the labour market id massive. I finished ND and still wrote Jamb. Then I got admission to start 100L at University of Benin. My friends at the polytechnic were laughing at me saying that was backwardness. To cut the long story short, I have a very good job today and most of them are still at home and the few ones working are teachers. Sorry bro and I think the Government needs to do something about it.

That thing you saw there is a centre rugg

GboyegaD:
It would have been better you kept quiet than this gibberish you wrote. Her complain was calling her for an interview when they knew they don't want to hire HND graduates.
You should have complained about the inefficiency of the HR rather than thinking and trying to prove you are better than HND graduates.

smsshola:
My candid advice to you is if its possible u change ur statues cos the policy will not change the only thing that can change is u..this is the same advice I got back then I obtained my HND back then but unfortunately I work with an organization who don't recognized the cert banking sector for ur info but my dear when I got advice I went back for my bsc and today I av finished the bsc wt 2.1 currently doing my MSc and glory be to God i got my promotion wt the bank.

Moral of the lesson is nothing will change except you my dear if u remain complaining about this believe me the policy will not change. HND and bsc syndrome in naija may not change now cos the issue has been there before now and it will be there for long.

Alexgeorgebsg:
Who told you that Nigerian Airforce does not recruit with B.S.c ? ND is for recruit level while B.S.c and HND are for commissioned officers also applicable in the NAVY

Chukazu:
ND is supposed to be the minimum requirement,so it is not the same scenario.
