so what is ur point nw? every student shld come out with a 3rd class cus of wat u jst wrote there?? see, even if God grace will shower on you, you still have to put in ur best. arrogance and pride is an individual thing and shld nt be associated with degree aquisition.

My point is am an employer and am talking from experience, I have atleast 15 graduates working with me and lots of OND and SSCE holders, am not in anyway asking people to get lower grades, and honestly I know the Shakara one guy I employed with a 2.1 did to me and expecially his supervisor who has a lower grade than him, at the end we have to relieve him from the work.

Inspiring testimony

That's our expectation in this twenty first century business revolution. More of this.

I give this testimony to the glory of God and to the shame of the devil. At the end of my university education; through its ups and downs, bitter and sweet moments, I eventually graduated with a third-class degree in computer science. At that point in my life I was overly disappointed, highly discouraged and even suicidal on my bad days because I knew what was happening in the labour market. Every employer wanted graduates with second class upper and above for the limited and highly coveted employment slots. And here I was, I didn’t even have a 2.2, even if employers wanted to reach out in grace.

I had given my life to Christ on campus, and my thirst for God had intensified during this period. To the glory of God, even with my third-class degree, I did not sit at home as I got a job immediately, which is a whole miracle-story on its own. This job came with great exposure and an intense learning curve for me as a fresh graduate and I embraced the job even though the pay was not fantastic. Those of us who were taken by the company were put through a training programme to initiate us into Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing industry. Time went by and I emerged as one of the brightest trainees through the programme. We were soon staffed and placed on projects for multinational companies. After a while, some of my colleagues started filling out applications and searching for bigger opportunities. They would repeatedly forward job links and vacancies to me as I was considered one of the best among my peers. I did not apply for any of those positions as I was always self-defeated because of my third-class university certificate and the devil held it high up in my face all the time. I continued to do my job diligently and also develop myself in my field.

On Mother’s Day in May 2015, Pastor Nomthi preached about the unmerited grace and favour Moses witnessed in the house of Pharaoh, when there was an order to kill every male child of the Israelites. She said that Moses was not only spared but was raised as a prince. I immediately keyed into this lesson of grace and I was full of faith. I applied for a job someone had recommended me for and I was offered the position on the spot with 100 percent increase with good pension and sumptuous packages.

I thought I had seen all. Before the resumption date I was given, I was invited for another job interview with one of the telecom giants in Nigeria. Through the interview process I had to compete with the best of the best and even more experienced applicants. At the end of the interview and test process which lasted several weeks, I came out top as the preferred candidate of all. Now my problem became choosing between the two offers as they were both fantastic and had good prospects. I sought the face of the Lord who had made all these happen, and eventually I had to turn down the Multi-national Telecom Giant’s offer. Now I am at my new job and I have even been given opportunities to travel to different countries on projects (I had never travelled out of Nigeria before this job).

A month ago, another job offer came through with take-home package closing in on about half a million which I had to turn down after wide consultation and seeking the face of the Lord. I also did not apply for this job; all these opportunities came by recommendation. A third-class graduate now turning down job offers from multinational companies – it can only be God and I am here to give back ALL the praise to HIM alone.

Congrats but I would have thought this topic would've suited the Religion section than this section. It just looks superficial and no career learning content in the post.

Congrats but I think this topic would've suited the Religion section than this section because I ask myself, what do you really want people to pick out from this experience It just looks superficial and no career learning content in the post. Job seekers will only see hope in the story but nothing substantial they can use in even getting invites from multinationals.

Congratulations! and its the Lord's doing. I tap into your testimony.I am next

Congratulations sir. I also key into this miracle in Jesus Name. I also finished with third class

lalasticlala.....This has never made f.p. Please let`s do something.

My advice.


Read hard in school and make first class or 2 -1 and acquire sellable skills too

If u miss out on those 2, make sure u double or triple yiur effort to acquire sellable skills.


Don't miss out where he got trained in Business Intelligence and Data ware housing skills.

Fallacious headline.

Companies don't wants your service because you had third class,
neither were you hired because you are a christian. No company
worth its salt use those criteria for hiring.

You were highered because of what you can do and I am
surprised you haven't realized this yet..

who is that drunkard that push this rubbish of 2016 to front page?

Has nothing to do with God and everything to do with your BI skills and experience which are currently in heavy demand.

Scam...

I key/connect into this testimony, and I will share my own testimony too

congrat bro, my own testimony is coming.

WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE BUT NOT WITH MEN (LUKE 1:37)

Nature129:
I always say it and will continue saying it, "Nothing strengthens the faith of many Christians, myself inclusive, as testimonies."

People's testimonies literally tell me that those "beautiful stories" I read in the Bible aren't fictions.

May God be forever praised for Him alone deserves our praises.

Congrats, sir! Your story will be a source of inspiration to millions of people that will read it. And I pray it becomes a point of contact for their miracles! Amen!

The same way winning gamblers inspire other gamblers.

okonja:
That is what we call Grace... , Congrats bro

You gorrit! It can only be Grace.

When Grace takes effect,all impossibilities becomes possible.

This can only be God!

afanide:
And some people will keep telling us about CV this CV that.....

It is not by CV o...... I keep teling people. It is by God's Favour......

silly post, you for type rubbish on your CV and tell your interviewer it's not by CV. There are some CV that will turn down God's favour. Your CV has to correspond with what God's favor can work with!

wow, congartulations. I key into your testimony, the God i serve neither sleeps nor slumber.

he is worthy

Both career and faith learning content (testimonies) are there. Good success does not depend only on your academic excellence. Good success comes from your faith in God and His grace that enable you to succeed in spite of your academic or economic background.

ROCE:
Congrats but I would have thought this topic would've suited the Religion section than this section. It just looks superficial and no career learning content in the post.

Not motivational, not inspiring.. Please what's the point in all this??

Can he pin down the use of this story?

Lie Lie. Tell us the truth because no established company of repute will go below their minimum requirements for employment. If it is done and the management get to know about it then somebody must loose his job for undermining the company's employment policy. Na connections u get bro.

He was diligent with his work and the experience gained over his yrs of service opened doors of opportunities for him.
Like seriously this ain't magic...it happens everywhere. Thus days most multinationals prefer to go for experience folks.
Wish him the best in his career.

Like I always tell people, it can only be God
