We are moving forward but we will jail Jonathan. He was the most destructive president in history. I don't know why a young person cannot imagine a world where economic growth and jailing of corrupt leaders happen at the same time?. Are they mutually exclusive?.
Are people in EFCC not taking big salaries and should they not work to deliver on their duties?

This is a generational curse. If you are going to work and running your business does it mean you won't also find time to secure your family?

Please get serious.
Why don't u lead the way to Bayelsa to arrest him? huh I see all u do these days is to type crap from that Asha 210 of urs, sitting in that mud hut of urs with dirty brown roof!!!

food microbiology
industrial microbiology
medical microbiology
enviromental microbiology

If you read critically and digest thoroughly, you will observe that I didn't say Microbiologists don't easily get jobs. What I'm saying is different from getting a job. I mean growing a career in your chosen field.

They must not necessarily be jobless but where they are is where they can hardly grow their career.

In the case of banking/financial sector it very fraustrating and sickening seeing graduates of other courses-most at times sciences taking up positns for those that studied and have rudiment knowledge abt financial transactns (eco and bfn graduates). There shld be a body also regulating activites of banks & other financial institutns wit respect to recruitment. Abi does CIBN or CBN has jurisdictn here
That shows you that the institutions are all mixed up with little professionalism.

Not all the supposed courses I mentioned. I only mentioned those I know too well because I have seen many cases. I used what is prevalent. Many folks might not understand.

Op is not saying they cannot work there.What he's saying and has been saying is that its difficult for them to be employed with the way things are going in this country and the number of their fellow colleagues being churned out from the various institutions across the country each year.

Besides medical science graduates and science laboratory graduates are being considered more in laboratory and medical vacancies.
Thank you very much. This is what I have been trying to say...exactly! cool

A profession is different from a career. You join the bank and create a career path and grow in it. You may be sent to HR services for instance and you get certifications in HR and personnel related line. That is different from being a lawyer for instance.

A life example? The present minister for trade studies medicine and joined Arthur Andersen. He went on to grow in that field and thereafter set up African Capital Alliance from where he was called up to become a Minister.

Kachikwu is a lawyer....

Need I go on?
Even if a profession is different from a career as u have stated, u can hardly separate one from the other. The people you used as examples...was it yesterday they started their career? We are talking of our present day society. The ease at which those people got to where they are now cannot be compared with what the present graduates of today are facing career-wise. Now, let me give you an example. Do you think a graduate of Public Admin would find it difficult to grow his career about 3 decades ago compared to the way it is now? We train but we hardly create an enabling environment that can take care of the people being trained!

Montaque:
Op. What do u understand by the word 'career'?
Do u mean a vocation for making money or a sustained pursue of personal interest?
I think we also have this mindset of going to school to learn how to make money, whereas i can opt for philosophy just for the knowledge whch to me holds my interest. I also want to do a pgd in economics cos i love the subject, not for making a career out of it.
You should advice accordingly, every body of knowledge is vital, even if not practiced, for the love of it by the learners.
Shalom
First, I must commend u for ur opinion. That's a very nice one! Now, I picked ur second definition of a career even if it's not complete. I believe our career should be able to impact on our lives and the people around us. What's the essence of being an Archeologist when you can't even utilize the knowledge to solve society's problem? huh It simply means there will no growth.
EducationRe: 10 Courses In Universities That No Longer Have Clear Career Paths by Rapmoney(op): 2:13pm On May 21, 2016
hardbody:
Have you ever written bank or O&G tests? They ask for a minimum of second class upper IN ANY FIELD. Pass the tests and interviews and see how your career blossoms.

What is important is make a good degree in any field and be able to defend the fact you went through a tertiary institution. The rest lies with God and being at the right place at the right time.

Don't limit yourself or others.

Just a suggestion.
There's a difference between growing ur career and finding a job. The insight u gave to us is finding a job and not growing ur career. Are u telling me that someone who studied archeology but works in the bank is growing his/her career? huh Except u are aiming for a career switch...then two things are involved! (1) U didn't have passion or any plan for the course u have studied or (2) U don't have passion or interest for ur banking job; u do it just to keep body and soul together.

If u had d guts to put Microbiology a very lucrative course, then u have to add Biochemistry too in that list
I specifically included courses that I've personally seen clear cases. Though, Biochem goes with Microbiology. I didn't say they are not lucrative but finding the right career path in our society is difficult due to falling standards and absence of institutions that could support.

It's this 'It doesn't matter' syndrome that has placed many graduates where they are today. A man who does things without purpose soon discovers what lies in stock for him.

Please, before you proceed, know that this post is not meant to put anybody's spirit down or to underrate anyone's course of study. It is an observation and it is basically limited to our society; it does not extend to the environment outside.

Every year, an army of young people seek to gain admission into the numerous universities spread across the country. One thing pertinent here, is the fact that many of these young people just want to get there, obtain whatever degree they can (irrespective of the class of degree) and rush to the labour market to sell whatever knowledge they feel they have obtained!!! People mostly think of working and earning money without thinking of 'career'. In the end, they reluctantly settle for UNDEREMPLOYMENT!!! When you don't have a clear career-path to grow in, you may find yourself in just anywhere, whether you like it or not cool Below are some courses in our universities that have slowly lost institutions that can support their career paths:

1) Political Science/Public Administration: Seriously speaking, you can hardly find a clear career path under these courses in Nigeria. Many people I personally know who studied these courses have started doing 'anything' to survive! Except you are studying for just knowledge or you have other businesses or line of interests to engage yourself in, these two courses are not what anyone should bank on as career in these present days. Apart from the education sector, you may not be able to grow your career in the few insitutions aligned to these courses if you are not 'connected'!!!

2) Microbiology: Most graduates of this course have become so frustrated in life to an extent where some of them have gotten trapped with teaching Biology in little mushroom private schools where they are paid 12,000 Naira monthly! grin You can hardly differentiate such schools from poultry farms! One Microbiologist asked me to assist her get placement in a media house. She told me that she liked working as a presenter in a radio station! The first thing that came to my mind is, 'Why didn't you study Mass Communication or Information Technology in the Ivory Tower?' huh

3) Parasitology and Entomology: I don't even know what to say at this junction! cool

4) Philosophy: Despite the fact that this subject gave birth to all other studies as we have been told, it is becoming more and more irrelevant as the days go by. Apart from teaching or lecturing...or in religious institutions, this course has no clear career path in Nigeria.

5) History & International Relations: If you are not an enterprising person, talented or already in a seperate business, banking on this course may spell doom for you! Your services are mostly needed in academic institutions.

6) Zoology: In a society where even endangered species of animals are flagrantly killed and posted on-line with so much impunity grin, I wonder what the future of zoologists would look like career-wise huh How many zoo or animal reserves do we have? huh

7) Archeology: I wonder what's up in your mind if you decide to study this course! We no longer have strong institutions that can support archeology which happens to be the study of ancient things! A graduate of Archeology might find himself/herself doing just 'anything' sooner than later wink

8. Religious Studies cool

9) Anthropology: Don't even think of establishing and growing a career in Nigeria with this!

10) Yoruba/Igbo/Hausa Education: In a society where our indigenous languages are gradually 'suffering' in the hands of our young ones, especially, in the cities, and the government and cultural institutions are doing almost nothing to correct it, I wonder what career path graduates of these courses would hope for, except in the academic world!

Before you criticize this post, consider the introduction of the post.

Don't be afraid that your life might END, instead ask yourself whether it would ever START!!!

Good day everyone!
