It has been Allah all through my life. Wrote 0 level exams thrice, jamb thrice and finally got admission at the third trial at age 20, graduated age 23, served @ 24. At 25, i do side hussle like block molding . It later dawned on me, i am still sharing room with my siblings at my dad house. I was using a phone worth 20k, i sold it for 12k and rented a single room to start my life with 300 as monthly kontribution for electricity bills. I applied for teaching job at a primary school 10 steps away from my rented apartment, boom i was employed that very day via my B.Sc. I form big boy and told them i can only resume the next day. The pay was 12k. Though i was planning to save and expand my income when kovid 19 came. Now the biggest brain challenge, how far can i go again. 1 Like |

Life wasn't fair to anybody especially those of us that are born without a silver spoon in our mouth.....so everything we aspire to become or achieve in life is gotten through serious battling and fighting...and it is not only fighting alone, you will sit down and strategize and then set out different ways you think could be accomplished... And to accomplish your aim is another ball game because definitely, you will meet all kinds of obstacles and interferences and your ability or tenacity to overcome solely lies on you. After I finished serving in a public school, the principal called me that if I can be patient enough that he will assist me so that I could be retained. But because I had a lot of hopes and aspirations then, I respectfully declined to his offer. So, I came back to lagos to start hunting for jobs. I got a teaching job from the different tutorial centre and my take-home then is equated to what an average salary was as at then. Thereafter, I got a job in one of the federal agencies...at the initial, the salary was so small but I made money outside my salary. And what I made outside my salary triple my salary. Though the money is made, I still have dreams beyond my present job, this COVID 19 issue is really a setback for me... I pray things should get back to normal.... 1 Like |

petitejolie:At a point, I had to involve some rough boys in my area to help recover my money, but somehow he went behind to influence them to play double games. Yeah, I understand that feeling. But I've vowed that next time, if I ever change my mind about venturing into any business, it has to be one that I will be almost 100% in control of with very minimal involvement of another party. People are so heartless these days I swear. Desperation everywhere. |

marvelphysics: I know a few guys who got good programming jobs with certifications only without uni or poly cert. Mind you, programming is competence based and you're not going to be limited to Nigerian labour market alone provided you're very good at it and you've done some projects on your own to show for it. I have a friend in Malta who got a job from Nigeria and was flown there as an expatriate. In addition to those certifications, you might wanna check British embassy website.they also run higher diploma courses in computer science which you can do on a part-time while you keep to you BDC job. That will give your CV a boost too. As for where to start with programming, if your knack for AI is strong, you might wanna start up with Phyton or seek advice from gurus on IT section of Nairaland. They will direct you. In addition, I came across some websites that run free courses, though it might not be comprehensive but it's going to be a good start. Chat me up on WhatsApp on 08130303131. I will add you to a group chat where you get links to those few online courses. Peace 3 Likes 1 Share |

Very interesting thread I studied computer Engineering in school, after completing my nysc i stood at home for close to 7 months.. I applied for jobs in top IT companies in lagos, from main one, system tech, sidmach tek experts..all efforts prove abortive, depression was beginning to set in. During those periods i stay with my uncle who was a fashion designer..i began to learn from him to while away time.. suddenly i begin to have interest in it.. I got an offer for a teacher job from a friend , the salary wasn't lucrative .. initially i wanted to reject it..i started the job because i have to teach my area of study (Computer), and i had bills to settle, i started yhe job..during that period i didn't stop learning fashion design.after school hours i resume to my fashion job....I began to get sewing Job from family members, and close friend....i gota contract from the school to sew there school uniform..Then the pandemic started....I just hope we resume school very soon...,i presently survive with my fashion skills...i have plan to save each money i get now to write my CCNA and proceed in my career, i also plans to have my fashion house.....we are not there yet but its a work in progress 7 Likes |
