Obtaining MSc only increases your hope of getting a Job not your chances of getting it. When the government realises that the number of jobs available is not enough for the unemployed, they make it more competitive by requesting for additional qualifications.

I have counted one year already. Some organisations like NB Plc, Dangote etc now require M. Sc. for their Graduate Trainee Programmes. Those of you that are ranting cannot even apply for such!! Very soon, M. Sc. will be the minimum academic requirement for most entry-level jobs. By then, some of you will understand; except you are ready to work for yourself.

The job that I am about to get can be attributed to the fact that I have a master's degree. It was only meant for us and not B. Sc. holders.

Those of you who are calling for my head can enter the lagoon, for I care less.

Why did you all go and Master what have not practised. Your job experience suppose to determine what to master?.. That's where people make the mistake. Get a job or an area of interest which you have done internship or voluntary work and Master on it. Not just go for masters blindly

*Modified*

You don't need to be gainfully employed to develop interest in a field of study. You can do voluntary work somewhere or show interest in the field you worked during SIWES /IT. You see the difference when you Master what you have basic or industrial knowledge of. even the lecturer teaching you would know you have ideas when ask meaning questions. u will have an itch free Masters experience . Also getting a project topic and defending it will not be difficult. it would be interesting although.

Do you think that you are making sense? I do not blame you but the system that is making you to run your mouth. Next time, do not just type gibberish. Get a job and master on it as if that is how it is easy to get it. Many have not gotten a job after graduating many years ago. Those of us that have gone for masters are still more relevant than them in the labour market.

I guess he meant no insult but that's the fact.
It is advisable to work and gain some experience and when you have find a niche for particular field or specialization then, you acquire Master Degree in ur chosen field.

Employers want verifiable work experience not just certificates.

Someone can only work and gain experience if he/she is being given a chance to do so. That is my argument. The system is faulty, that is it, let us call a spade a spade. People that have been written off in Nigeria are doing great abroad. I have a friend who was unable to get a job in Nigeria but within few months in America he got three good offers. He was not employable in Nigeria but employable in America!

You're very correct. That's the situation we found ourselves in Nigeria.

Some of us that are employed are still frustrated and underpaid.

What thrash are you saying that your M. sc makes you more relevant than the Bsc Holder. Make them set exam and interview for me and you nah, i will thrash you upandan. Whoever does his Msc just because of employment opportunities is a dullard as far as am concerned. That means you aint grounded or sound enough to defend your Bsc. Moreover who does Msc without a Job or a priority. I have discovered that majority of people like you just enrol for M. sc cos of job opportunitues and nothing else. The quality and the quantity of your IQ still remains stagnant.

It doesn't matter, I have an MSc in biochemistry and I've been at home for the past 4-5 months and I'm sure there are many people out there in similar situations. I think the best thing that matters is the course of study, it must not be restricted to a particular field.

You see that your degree of dullness has no boundary! Continue living in your illusionary world. By their fruits we shall know them. If it is very difficult for you to understand my little write up, I wonder what is making you to be feeling that you are better than me. You are a complete slowpoke judging from your assertions . Imagine a mother fucker like you saying that you can outsmart me in an examination, wake up from your slumber boy. Common sense they say is not common. Next time you see my comment, use your senses very well.

Additionally, the career path that some of us want for ourselves requires a masters degree. You can only speak for yourself and not someone like me. I am hoping that you will stop ranting after reading this or your level of ranting would increase geometrically.

You can claim to be anybody on this forum, nobody cares.

For your information, the fact that some of us are saying that we have not gotten a job does not necessarily mean that we are not working. It only mean me that we are underpaid. So get a life and stop using panadol for another man's headache.

False

The main aim of any post degree was to enhance your efficiency and specialization after you have gotten a job NOT to help you get a job.

Those days, people got MSc through study leave from their regular job and not for the sake of helping them look for jobs.
