Got Job Without Required Years Of Experience? by adexuxin(op): 11:58am On Oct 11, 2017
Please i have few questions for working class nairalanders.

Have you ever secured a job without having the required years of experience.
Have you ever Secured a good pay job you have no previous experience in.
Are you an engineering graduate? Did you get considered for jobs outside engineering. (Engineering graduate in Nigeria are very dynamic and sound).

I will help as an Engineer too.

Majority of the jobs that will accept you without experience are limited. E.g. of few of them are;

1) Marketing

2) Retail Sales Reps

3) Customer Service Reps (Just a few of them)

4) Etc. (If you have connections)

B It is very hard to get a well paying job (Except graduate Trainee jobs) if you don't have experience.

I studied Electrical Electronics, but I had to switch to Sales and Marketing (Information Technology), before branching over to IT Support and Digital Marketing.

If you want to make it in Nigeria, then you should become a Jack of all trade in majorly ICT related subjects.

It is possible if you prove yourself you are capable and can learn easily on the job. There are some jobs (e.g engineering, medical, supply chain, finance, etc) that requires you to have educational and professional qualifications in order to get the job. Without this, there is nothing u can do.
