Let the job come 1st, we never see job u dy talk about making careers

do we have a choice?

No 2 is so correct.
I know someone who resigned by phone because the management was terrible.

@op. I share your view. However, as regard banking, skills acquired in some roles are easily transferable e.g if you work in the IT department, IT audit or IT control and areas that require some sort of professional certification.

Business is the best option here but the problem here is capital power.

This thread is faulty.

Teaching is a career. It does not matter where you teach.

The school has nothing to do with your career. Your career is that you're a TEACHER.

The aim of a career is not to get your arse sit on a chair for 35 years. A career is something you do for a living, something you're good at and you wish to pursue till you become an expert (consultant).
It is not anybody's business whether you work with a 20k private school or a dilapidated government school. If you love teaching, you'd be proud to pursue your career as a teacher.

Dyt:
My opinion

Teaching is not for everyone
Not for the money*yes we work in naija cos of the pay*
They are builders
They brought you to where you are today
Only if I could turn back the hands of time, I would embrace teaching.

I am a full timer customer service person
I do Marketing and CRM
I must tell you its an interesting combination when you have got confidence* forget the crazy target, you stay or leave*

Not all customer care works in telecoms
Offices
Front desk
CRM

Customer service is broad
You only pick the one that suits you

In which country u do ur customer care job

Op needs to be examined! Or probarbly enlightened.

He lacks propal orientation about the word 'career'. The fact that you do a job does not mean you are making it your career.

If banking is not a good career and customer services is not a career, I wonder what then would be a career! All aspects of life needs customer service and a lot of are happily earning millions doing customer service. It's not just a career but an Industry just like banking! If the economy is bad, and the situation in the country makes it look blury, that does not mean we should feed the public with wrong information. We were all trained by teachets and teaching can never cease to exist. Teaching is life building career with blessing attached naturally. ITS NOT CUMPULSORY YOU MAKE MONEY FROM A CAREER, WHAT YOU NEED MOST IS FULFILMENT. People even chose some career for free. Though money brings FULFILMENT, but not in all cases. There are a lot of time you have money without being fulfilled and you can also be very fulfilled without much money! What is import is out priorities!

Very true

You obviously know little or nothing about banking (full staff banking)

The worst is banking sector.

Op just said the simple trut, when praying for Job, don't pray fr anyhow Job like above! Those doing these jobs were so glad @1st day @work, but fast faword to 1years, they are fraustrated! My wife is a banker, the last sack in her office, she wish she was among because her mate that were sacked was paid 5m as pay off, they were so happy because they see it as freedom from bondage. Most of them are doing very fine now with litle busnss they establish with rest of mind.

This is true.

What op said is true especially about customer care in telecoms. In MTN, last year they handed over half of their online customer care to ISON Bpo, an Indian company. They slashed their salaries by 50%, moved them to Ibadan, Ilorin and Abeokuta, there they also increased their working hours. The remaining customer care agents in Lagos(Apapa, VGC and Matori will also be handed over to same ISON BPO by Oct 1 2016. The contracts of CNSSL & MACTAY which all MTN's online customer cares are under will expire by 30th Sept 2016. So those who can accept salary of N47k will go with ISON to Ibadan, if you feel the money is too small considering about N100k and little above it you use to earn then you resign. Many of these customer care agents have worked for MTN up to 10years, some 8yrs, some 6yrs. So op is right, don't make any career with customer service in telecoms in Nigeria. They will use you, promise you they will make you a full staff from contract staff based on your performance but they will never do it. When they feel they are OK they will dump you. My cousin who n MTN has spent 9years in Apapa call centre and now she is regretting.
She should've followed her husband's advice earlier and resigned because there is no future in the job.

the problem is not starting small but how long will you remain small. Many mega businesses started small but within a couple of years they expanded due to influence I guess

Musicians nkor?

after one track or one album...we no go hear of dem again!


e.g Brymo

I don't know where to start from, you should just know Brymo is making better music compared to your wizkid Davido and olamide combined. It's a pity a talent like brymo's don't get appreciated in this part of the world.

Regarding to customer care representative its not only dangerous to your health but you doing with your whole life a normal human being sitting for 8 hours and receiving calls back2back no. 3 its Hell

How long you remain small depends on you. A start up needs an average of 3-5 years to really enjoy good profits.

so many comments about the teaching profession.

nt all truth

Banking.... the points made can apply to any other job. Contract staff is entry level... same as being on probation.... as in soooo many other jobs... you can be dismissed at any time. Bankers move from one bank to another.... same as doctors from one hospital to the other.... teachers from one school to the other.... that's your field..... career path.
Teaching... private school/public school.... doesn't matter.... teaching was and always would be a good career and one in which the better you be at it the more power and options you would have... like to be continue with your career but on your own..... which is not possible in many 'good career' jobs.
Customer Care.... hmmm..... I agree... this one should be for when you have nothing going on and is waiting for something to come up.
