Please Advice A Brother On Which Career Path To Follow by marshborn(op): 4:34pm On Feb 14, 2018
Good day nairalanders....i am currently at a crossroad...i currently work at Zenith bank as a contract staff earning about 75k a month. The contract runs for 2 years and would be renewed when it ends...Zenith bank normally takes about 4 years to confirm one as a staff these days, well that being said I just secured a job as a writer in one of the major advertising firms in nigeria, the pay is about twice what I currently earn.

The problem is that I see Zenith bank as a more stable organisation compared to the advertising firm.
Meaning it might take a while but I could actually build a career with Zenith.
What do you guys think? Should I take the offer

*I am about 28 years old

It's mostly through referral.....the writing job is a full time job not part time....and Zenith are offering 75k for 4 years before confirmation.

Whats your job decription in Zenit Bank? i doubt it is something as prestigious as Treasury, guy, Zenith bank would employ GT's and you would feel bad,while wait 4years to be a permanent staff,?except its your passion,(start writing ICAN,ACCA or all), if not move bro. Content production is bae if you can be committed to it, Few people know how to write, just learn the ruduments of advertising well, creative writing, and client relations...you are good. Kindly move except you think this contract just is buying you time to make your next big move
