Are You Looking For A Job? by Nobody: 12:44pm On Feb 07, 2017
I'm currently studying for my degree course, finished my national diploma some years back and went for degree immediately after.

I have seen most people complain about unemployment in the country so far, that has put some kind of anxiety in me and i have thought of ways and what to do immediately i finish school next year.
Going into business makes me feel like I'm forfeiting everything i learnt in school for a whole lot of six years to go start something entirely different.

As a matter of fact, my research shows there are jobs one can do, the tons of job adverts i see on make me wonder if they are for real or scams, i updated my CV therein and two job interview dates were sent to me though i didn't go for any. My question now is, have any of you tried the jiji job ads and how viable are they?

Back to the major topic, 'are you looking for job?

Mostly, the ideology of a nigerian student is to graduate with first class or 2:1, the beauty of a nigerian graduate is to get a job, and when this happens, you have made your self and family proud.

but when you start experiencing job losses, no one would blame it on a wrong and incompetent ideology, most would say, let me get a job first, work and save money then start something of my own, but after working for sometime, they become relaxed and stay at the comfort zone.

My point is, as a graduate, have you thought of things to do other than Working for someone, how about establishing something related to the knowledge you acquired in school. Whats so difficult in two persons who studied agric to come together, pull resources together and establish a farm. How about two graduates establishing a doughnut producing mini factory. And many of them..

Most people will say there is no money, some finished NYSC even when the economy is still moderate and didn't get home with a dime.

Nobody owes you anything, survival at this point in Nigeria is a choice, you have to think outside the box, you chose to survive or remain where you are.so many things are yet to be done that you can do.
Determine to do something today, sit, plan, articulate and imagine ways you can overcome your fears and challenges.

For some people, their dream is to be comfortably employed, once this dream is achieved they are okay.
As for me i intend i'm currently working somewhere were currently my pay is so meager at the moment, but there is great prospects in the firm and i feel like happy working here. However, i used to have a small business on the side which was doing quite well until my supplier absconded with a lot of my money sometime last year without trace.
This is not going to stop me though, i'm wiser now and i also intend to start off something else before the end of the first quarter of the month.
Ultimately, i aim to av lots of little side businesses running and as well keep on working still. It won't be easy, but i know it's not Impossible.

Gracias

Your desirability is intense, i love that.
imagine having a side business that generates say 100k a month plus you salary, you would be on a safer side. Ride on bro, the worst is to do nothing. God bless the hustle.

Thats good sha, but usually for side hussles to generate that kinda profits one wud need a lotta capital or a probably an incredible idea, what i intend to do is to start small sha, but i jst wanna get like 5 side hustles even tho the profits within the region of 30-50k per month, the good thing is any profit i make wud be reinvested as capital as i dnt really need to use it, my salary take care of my expenses.
