There are no jobs in Nigeria; yet some professions like accounting, Pharmacy, Law, Medicine etc are making it easier for most of the graduates In these fields to be gainfully employed and thus, live a very comfortable life. I know you might want to conclude that, everything is dependent on CONNECTION( ie Man-Know-Man). But then, there are people who are up there without any connection or whatsoever.

However in order to help the unemployed non-professional graduates who hardly or never scale through in any interview, I will want those who studied non-professional courses but later made it in a chosen line of career, help us by way of suggestion, sharing of experiences and advice on the professional skills and certification that made them to land their dream jobs.



Please Moderators, help me move this to front page; because the Lack of jobs and discrimination in the labour market is becoming too much and we need nothing but advice on how to overcome them. We all must make it and in Nigeria shall we all excel.

Thanks and God bless

My Brother, it is getting out of hand. But we must all make it

I think you should ask yourself that aside the course you read, what other job can you do that is 'probably' inbuilt 'or' developed over time. I studied microbiology but I found out that am very good at secretarial and administrative work. I saw this talent in me when I was still a teenager as I held the post of secretary in different societies in my church. I finished my NYSC last year December and I got a secretary job last month which I turned down because of the salary. Now I have two job interviews next week, one as a receptionist in a big hotel in Lagos and another interview (not as a receptionist) in port Harcourt. I am very positive by God's grace that I will get one of the two. I am also good at teaching. Since there are no enough labs and industries to absorb a microbiologist like me, I had to deviate. Now that's me! what else can you do aside what you studied in school.

Wooow!
Thanks for your comment Ma. I wish you success in the interviews!
