Go to a UPS store and provide them with the address where you want it mailed to. I'll also advice that you read the google reviews on the consulate as some people have detailed accounts of their experience there. Also, the earlier you get there, the earlier you'll leave. Try to call or email them before you travel (they don't usually pick the phone) and clarify if they have made any changes recently. They switched from USPS to UPS envelopes without any announcement to that effect. lionlee216: |

Good evening all. Thanks for your input on my previous enquiries. I am here again for another enquiry. While filling my DS-160 form, I have reached Work and education experience when their server started showing error. In fact I have filled current work. Before this error started showing. It said the error has been co.municated to the administrators. I hope this won't affect my DS-160, can I proceed to make my visa payment and book for interview? Thanks |

I am applying to a school that needs foreign transcript evaluation. I checked WES website and discovered that their process is long, is there another evaluation body I can use apart from WES? Can I evaluate more than one transcript at once? Who has gone through it that can explain it better? Thanks. |

shayhune:I can relate with number 2. I took Amazon internship assessment back in February and all the technical questions could be found in Leetcode and HackerRank. Boy, na once I fail comot. Tidied up exams today and like play like play na one year remain o. Sometimes this journey feels like a dream, it seems like it was yesterday I wrote my first GRE and asked for directions here that BigFrancis21 adviced me to switch to MIS. Mehn how time flies. Subtle encouragement to every aspiring candidate. Do everything that you feel will aid you in achieving this dream. Write multiple exams if you must, or just for visa sake if you like. It's worth it. While going to ivy league school is good, going to a school that fits into the pocket of your sponsor or the school that offers you the best financial package might sometimes be better. In my opinion don't sink yourself in huge debts all in the name of going to a top whatever school. A person's fate can't be determined by the school he/she attends. It's in you. Everyone is unique and let your uniqueness shine bright and you will prosper. Liverpool showed today how determination is key to success and I read an inspiring story today and I will share it here https://www./how-being-bold-landed-me-microsoft-internship-akosua-boadi-agyemang To everyone out there prepping for interview, success. To everyone that have gotten visa, congrats and remember not to abandon the family. Like that peak advert with papilo says "it's is you". Never ever forget this. peace out |

sheke01:Three things - I won't elaborate 1. Networking is the best way to land those tech jobs. A lot of people that perform very well in those technical tests still get rejected. Don't be surprised to know that the person that finally landed that job may not have taken that test that you took. 2. When it comes to the job search, do not be fooled by every story you see on LinkedIn. If someone wants to boost his/ego on social media, he/she will structure the story in a way that doesn't reflect reality. 3. If you are a newbie in the tech industry with no previous work experience or experience in programming, embrace networking. And yes, going to a target school is the easiest way to get that network. The harder way is to attend career fairs. I wish you the best of luck |
| Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by sheke01: 4:06am On May 08, 2019 |
bracelum:You have come again 1. "the person that finally landed that job may not have taken that test that you took". Worst assumption ever. Not in IT field. If you say the interviewers might go easy on the person, that's a different case but the person not taking the test is a big fallacy. In IT, Networking can only get you through the gates but your skills is what get you through the door and keep you in the room. Prioritizing networking over skill set is a big oversight...... (I don't want to use a negative word) 2. You think I did not investigate on the story before I shared it? You think I did not see videos of her interning in Microsoft or screenshot of the over one million views her post had all because Jeff Weiner (LinkedIn Ceo) commented on her post or the article Forbes magazine wrote on her? Sometimes you make me laugh. You think life has one formula.....Lolz And yes, she still did interviews before she got the position despite the popularity she got. 3. Target schools? Lol. Go to LinkedIn and see #StudentsOfLinkedIn pulling weights and making a difference despite not being in your "top" or "target" schools. And who is arguing with you on the importance of networking?? The choice of skills over networking is a no brainer, target school or not You see the world only how you view it, if you decide to view the world in one dimension only, that's the only way you will see the world |

sheke01:He shared an advice and wasn't attacking your post. Your post in a way is subtly attacking. You both shared a great view but networking can't be overruled anywhere in the world. It's an important factor to embrace. |
| Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by sheke01: 5:01am On May 08, 2019 |
Time2win:Has there ever been any argument about networking? I guess LinkedIn is now a comedy booking platform. I shared a LinkedIn post which he antagonized the authenticity. If how his post started didn't clearly show the intention, doesn't this show it I get the whole idea of him trying to be the smartest guy in the room but gosh, this is a faceless forum. Lemme not say anything negative |
| Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by Time2win(m): 5:19am On May 08, 2019 |
sheke01:I know the bolded is why you reacted that way with your reply. Atimes we give people benefit of doubt and overlook what happened in the past. To me he shared an advice and wasn't actually attacking the post. As per networking, it wasn't an argument. You made mention of everyone writing test and you made mention of skills. I want to ask, can your skills be shown through writing test? I can cram answers and pass a test and that doesn't doesn't show that I am an expert in that area. Some do get job without even writing the test. That's why i said networking can't be overruled. |

sheke01:Lol, I come in peace. Just trying to correct a wrong notion you have. 1. I also operate in that "IT field" and I can clearly tell you that most people that get those jobs do not take those tests. Those tests were invented to save time in recruiting, but once you have a solid connection with your hiring manager, they invest their time to interview you. Once a hiring manager likes you, they can overlook your code errors as long as you have the logical thinking right. But if you are being screened by an automated system, a single mistake can ruin you even if you have the logical thinking correct. Skills are important but it is very hard to build your tech skills from novice to intermediate within <1 year (for internships) and <2 years (for fulltime roles). So, while you invest 40% of your time on those skills, spend the remaining 60% on networking. This advice is very useful for people (like you) that are new to tech and are not yet strong in programming. It is your choice to accept or decline. When your networking game is solid, you won't have to be interviewed by an automated system. Instead, a hiring manager will personally interview you and will overlook your code errors as long as you get the logical thinking right. Automated systems are mostly (80% of the time) used for people that applied through the general pool. As a newbie, you shouldn't be applying through the general pool. In very rare cases,a hiring manager can decide to interview you if you apply through the general pool. But it happens in very rare cases except when you network. 2. Lol, I did not say the guy did not join Microsoft, Facebook or wherever he works. What I'm saying is that, when people post such experiences on LinkedIn, they do not tell you the real gist about how they got their jobs. Everything is twisted to make it sound as if they orchestrated the whole thing. I won't go further on this, but shine your eyes wella and don't take anything you see on social media at face value. 3. Lol! Maybe you should know that LinkedIn hires college students to run campus journalism for them. Those students get access to a massive network but they inturn help LinkedIn to grow their student communities. A LinkedIn Student Ambassador has access to a similar network with someone that attends an Ivy League college. Most of those LinkedIn students' communities are run by those students and through the network they have, they get great jobs and if you don't know whatsup, you will think that it was 1 + 1 = 2 for them. Shine your eyes wella I guess you clearly understand my point now. Have a great rest of the day! |

bracelum:So you know your number 3 is possible and yet you come here and argue Monday to Sunday about "top" and "target" schools. Mind you that's only one out of the many ways of getting the best out of your situation o, one out of the numerous ways of getting access to those similar networks like someone that attended ivy league o. Person wey smart smart, person wey dey learn work dey learn work. I strongly believe you didn't view that post, you just hastily posted just so that your voice can be heard and now you're trying to sweet talk by using "twisted", "orchestrated", "face value". Lolz....no be today we know those patterns And how in hells name will someone open mouth and say I should spend 60% of my time networking and 40% learning skills. This is the height of it. No need to talk again |
| Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by Nobody: 6:23am On May 08, 2019 |
sheke01:When I talk about top schools, you don't read my posts carefully. Because you are so much against the notion (for whatever reason), you hastily type responses to attack me. The main benefit you get from top schools is the network! And it is that network that makes them perform better on the average than those that do not attend those schools. There are many other ways of getting a massive network - attending a top school is just one of those many ways (probably one of the easiest routes). Many people become successful without even attending college So, next time, when you read my posts, don't read it with a heart full of hate. Try to read it carefully so that you can get the whole gist |
| Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by Nobody: 6:28am On May 08, 2019 |
sheke01:1. I happen to know the person that wrote that post and that was why I responded. As I said, don't take news on social media by their face value. 2. The most successful people on earth are not the most talented or the most skillful - they are those with the best network. You don't have to believe but it doesn't change the fact. Since you are new to the tech world, put networking first! It eases the stress to landing that first job. You can also make it through the skills route, but that one is a more stressful process. |

I love your perspective. With this in mind, you are going to be very successful. Skills and knowledge matters a lot; in fact 20 times important than the GPA. And it is in all of us--that uniqueness! I hope these young dudes here listen and learn from all these. sheke01: |

Mister top school b school MBA is also in the IT sector and even knows the person who posted on linkedin Wawu! Surely, this has to be the same guy that personally managed Jeff Bezos divorce. Yes, the one that organized the historic Kim Jon Un - Trump meeting. We truly have legends on our little nairaland, no joke. What a privilege! |
