Bro, u simply reiterated what the OP said that: the M.Sc only raises ur hopes. That is quite a realistic perspective
Speaking of relevance;
1. Your academic relevance doesn't get u d job, it's the employment letter that does.
2. Your academic qualification is only relevant to who needs it. So, don't disillusion urself with the idea of feeling more relevant than the B.Sc others. I guess u've never missed a juicy job opportunity becoz the employers see u as OVER-QUALIFIED.

I will advice you to buy some goats with the money, at least the goat can give you kids and you can sell the kids and triple your money

RuggedArab:
I will start with the benefits of getting M.sc:

1. It stands you out.
2. It makes you more professional.
3. It makes you an expert in that field.
4. It enhances your career.
5. It brings promotion fast.
6. Enjoy higher job security and lower unemployment.
7. You Master skills that open doors to more challenging and satisfying work.
8. It earns you competency and trust.
9. It gives you CLASS.
10. It widens your knowledge.

Just to mention but a few.......

Yes! some will say who masters degree epp? I'll tell you that it has helped so MANY people. Show me any Managing Director or Chairman of any VERY BIG organisation without a masters degree. So many people; entrepreneurs, businessmen, founders of organisation have seen the need to acquire more knowledge by getting post graduate degrees.

It depends on the mindset of an individual, it is your choice of course ...... you can decide to be where you are. I am not saying without postgraduate degree you cannot make money or be rich. The average mindset here thinks why waste money and time to do masters (It is never a waste) when my first degree i suffered to get can land me a job. Yes, your first degree can get you a job, your professional certification can also get you a job, but your postgraduate degree can push you steps further with promotions.

I have seen admirable senior colleagues with very nice career path with postgraduate degrees soaring high like phoenix. I have a friend who was working with a financial firm before he resigned and went for his masters; If this guy apply for any of these financial firm, they will give him position 2x where he was. Where i was working before my current job, I got admission to study Control & Instrumentation but I could not continue because of my new job and the location was kinda far. I have reapplied again hopefully to begin next academic session. I don't mind if I have no option than to resign and finish this one which was the first mistake I did. People get scared with what if after the program I don't get a job? I bet you, if you know what you are doing and you know what you studied.... you will surely get a better job. Employers are crazy people..... they will always look for ways to relief or sack employees. I have a policy; I don't allow employers sack me, I sack employers with my wealth of experience and knowledge; before they know it, my CV is out and the next job is waiting while I tender my resignation. That's how I roll.

This is the normal excuse, you dont need million to start a trade. For example, Get a Nigerian used Ford Galaxy for =N=350k, you can convince family and friends to assist and schedule a repayment plan for one year. Get it registered in a park and drive the car yourself with good maintenance culture. I assured you, you will make not less than =N=60k every month and over =N=100k during peak period and pay back the fund you borrowed

You can get your business fund from this simple analysis.

Now ask a normal Nigerian graduate if he can do this, the usual answer is No, How can I be a common driver with my Bsc, Msc, etccc

What is this one saying? I don't blame you cos it seems you did a non practical course for your BSc degree. I went for my msc in Electrical engineering after 2 years working experience and by God's grace, I graduated with a PhD grade even after a low 2.2 BSc grade.

tempem:
It doesn't count, bro...
KINDLY STICK TO YOUR PLAN BRO, NA SAME YOU GO EMPLOY MSC BARBER FOR YOUR SHOP.....IT REALLY DONT COUNT

After school, am sure gonna open a barber's shop..
That's it...

Naturallyme:
I can see you are hungry and angry as well.( Double wahala). you blame it on the system and people are getting employed everyday. remove the wax in your medulla oblongata and coverings on your retina so that you can see and think well. anyways my company is recruiting . if you have B.Eng in a reputable school let me know.

emmahoney:
Guy man, look before you leap. Your comment portrays lack of understanding of my stance. What is my business with you finishing your masters degree with proceed to Ph. D.? I finished with something better than yours. For your information, I am a scientist. Therefore, your thought about me is wrong.

my sister is sitting at home with her Msc two years counting

obviously you are a confused graduate.. pls don't work in the public sector..

blueseacats:
They are complaining there is no job and no chance for experience, but when you give them little advice that can eventually change their life they brush you aside because they have masters which to me is another worthless piece of paper.

I advised two graduates recently , one masters the other bsc with welding skills to go with it I told them to look for very company they intend to work for and request to work for free (yes for free, volunteer). The masters guy brushed me aside because he though with his piece of paper every one will present him with a job, suit and tie, the other guy called me after 6 months and said guy I have been begging this one gate man at hercules offshore to help me submit my application for volunteer welder at hercules with no success, I told him I have a friend who works there, if you want to be a volunteer I can help, but real job, my leg no reach there.

Two weeks later the guy got a volunteer job as a welder 6 months later they staffed him at another company when they saw his hercules experience, now he is taking professional under water welding courses, I have told him to look into six sigma courses so he can be oil industry's hot cake.

The masters guy is still roaming about screaming on top of his lungs "AM A MASTERS DEGREE HOLDER WITHOUT A JOB" who cares ?if with all your masters you can't create a job from nothing, wipe your ass with that certificate and go get a skill or better still run into a cave and stop keeping us in the third world arena. Because you nothing but a caveman, Nonsense.

tosyne2much:
After school, Msc never even dey my dictionary now cos I have so many ways to make money even without an O'level

emmahoney:
Now let me finish your career, you claimed to be sound but you were unable to secure a University admission. But after some years you were connected to the registrar of a University and you were finally admitted! No doubt that you got your current job if at all you have a job through a back door as well.

"Getting a DE admission in a good university is
like hell. I applied 3 times was later considered
the third time after someone that knows
someone that knows someone that knows
someone that knows the registrar introduced me
to him. It wasnt easy I must say"

You made the above declaration by yourself. Next time, do not mess up with me. Good day slow poke.

Eddodoh:

It's very unfortunate that some people don't know what they want.
I personally, with over 7 years experience in Customer Service still take time out of my busy schedule from my present job to volunteer with some organizations in different industries so as to enable to switch career.

This thread seems to be the most interesting and insightful.

ednut1:
Anytime i hear go for your masters. I feel like slapping d person but i cant. After spending like 5-7m for uk masters some no still see work others are dragging gmat and shl test with bsc grads

I was the best graduating ND student and at the same time the class governor. At the university , I was the Class rep too and the best student of my set. you can see my years of experience that its better than that of your fucking masters. its obvious you don't leave nairaland for a minute. Get a life bro. This wont take you anywhere....
