dayo20002002: All depend on ur interest and the career path u choose. MBA will make u professional and it has little of academic oral and if u desire to be in academic field MSc is ok. I have both though I did MBA first due to the circumstances that I was surrounded it then but later I found out that MSc is more needed because I have to change my career path, then I went for MSc

Thanks,but please let's gain from your experiece. Why did u change the career path? Pls!!!

Dis Guy: further your career??

i'll advise you get a job first work for 2-3 years then start thinking of furthering a career

Where is the job?

Businesstools: I doubt if any university will accept a B.Agric directly for an MBA.

Why not? B.Agric Economics? I intend doin it in unilag,had my first degree in d premier univerity of Ibadan.

I graduated with 2'1 in Agric Economics. Now I wish to further my career with either MBA or MSc.. Which one will you advise with reason?? Thanks.

Teadrake, thanks for the comment,but the fact is,we cant continue to blame the government and sit there till jesus comes.. Now that they have failed,what is the way forward?

alsemkayolay@yahoo.com. dont forget to specify the products...

The need for this clarion call is necessitated by the recent publication/report by the NIMC recruitment process,which reveals that over 158,000 applicants applied for a vacancy that needs less than 2000 people. This further reiterated the magnitude of unemployment growth in this country, and the signal it sends to every patriotic citizen like me is that the future of this nation is as good as bleak,if no efficacious amendment is not put in place curtail the looming apocalyptic calamity.

However,the applicants would have been more than that if not for network failure dt denied some pple. And instead of our Government to look into this alrming high unemployment growth,they are busy spending money on irrelevant projects.. I wonder what becomes of this country in year 2020!

While discussing this sadonic report with my uncle,he told me d country is heading toward USA,where you see graduates as gateman and casual labourers.. That our problem is that we'v put that degree so much into our psyche and we believe its our compass of navigation to success in life,which is absolutely not.

Now the fact is,if the Government fails in their responsibility to create jobs,does that warants you and I failing in our responsibility to our life and family? Absolutely NO! To be successful in this country as hard as it is,here are my tips:

1: You need to shelve your ego as a graduate,the certificate is not a function of your success but an ingredient of social and communal relevance and exposure, and also to make u do your things in a different way from others.

2: Look arround you and think of the service you can render and people pay for.. It could be private lesson,laundry services(you employ people to wash and you do the ironing/pressing or get somone paid too,but remember,the more people you engage doing these, the lesser u get) and so on..

My case is a true testimony,I finished my service last year feb,after service,I got marketing job with an insurance company,where I finished all I saved during service looking for clients. After five months of unreliable and inconsistent comission and salary,things get worse,so much that I couldn't afford a 100 naira recharge card,couldn't go to office because I had no transport fare among other challenges.

Thus,I opted out and began to market myself,guess what I started doing? Knocking from house to house,asking wether they have children they need private lesson for.. That's how my success story began,today I'm happily married with a son,and my wife managing our small company.. However,its noteworthy I tell you that neither myself nor my wife comes from a rich background.

Pls,for the benefit of the youngest ex copas in town,let's share our success story that comes out of our persona struggles,and perhaps,share more ideas on what people can lay their hands on without necessarily looking for a white collar job they might never get.

I implore the admin of this forum to please let this make the front page,so we all learn more,and may be,we save those who have tighed their certificates to a white collar job that's not avail. Thanks.

How i wish this can make the front page,so that both graduating students n copas that will be passing out this coming feb 14th can prepare themselves for this challenge ahead... its a wakeup call.

Usguy: I never knew that naija still have youth who can sit down and write down something inovative.I hope you can put this in ur cv.

thanks.. put what in my cv? the write up?

outrage: Wow! Is this how bad the situation has gotten, I have been coming across similar topics lately on 'how to be an Entrepreneur'
Its nice for yout to give us the heads up. Thank you

You are most welcome.. the situation is truely worse that u can ever picture.

The tragedy in Nigeria is not in the poverty riden society we find ourselves,but in our poverty mentality... An old man,close to 70, was looking for a security or gateman job. Someone introduced it to my uncle,who dont need such service for now.

My uncle ask this man like how mch he want/month so he can introduce him to a friend,the man said 10,000. So,my uncle told him to say 20k when his friend comes,that 10k is too small.

Later in the day,my uncle's friend came,ask the man how mch he wants,the man said 10k,my uncle amazingly ask the man again bcs he knows his friend was payin like 30k for the same serviz before,and the man reiterated 10,000. So,the deal was zealed n the man is to resume on Monday..

Where I'm goin is,after my uncle's friend left,me n my uncle calld him n ask why he mentiond 10k after he has been told to ask for 20k... And the man replied.. "I was afraid the money is too mch and he might be discouraged n I'll lose d job''

Here comes my rhapsody of reality..

When u check the status updates of most graduating students,you can easily figure out how happy they are,which of course,is worth more than jubilation/celebration,not only bcs u r getting out of the world of academic stress,but bcs u gained admission together with many, wch are not graduating with u tday,some were Tsunamized(the term used in UI for students that are advised to withraw for not meeting up with d required CGPA),some died,some with their faith yet unknown wether or not graduating.. For u to b sure u r graduating.. I say a big CONGRATULATIONS.

Much as I would like to congratulate u,I want to drop some salient points of acrimonious truth. A deep thinkin man will kno that graduating from the university is the greatest challenge,not just bcs u'll be joining millions of other graduates who are yet to secure jobs,bt bcs of the nature of the country we find ourselves,where adequate measures are not in place to rescue this pathetic trend.

Now your pocket money stops,your parents begin to ask u to bring ur fiance(for most ladies),u begin to look for job like a begger.. Among many other challenges I cant begin to metion,untill u get there. Then u av a full grasp of the rotten status of a country,who has not secured the future of its youths..

This post do not intend to scare anyone at all,but to get u prepared for d challenges ahead. While rounding up my service couple of months ago,we were frankly told to go and learn hand works as the dream for a white collar job might be an execise in futility,I bowd my head in shame n rejected it with many others.. But today,where are many of us? Thank God for mine though..
Re-awake/tap ur enterpreneural skills,look arround u, explore and fashion out d busines or the services u can render.. Remember,for u to b successful,u think beyond d box,do not what everyone is doing,then u'll make what no one ever made..

Much as I congratulate u,I sincerely implore you all to start running now before u get somthing chasing u.. Get something doing! All d best!

Why av u guys chosen to be holy when d matter at hand deserves a practical approach?
Did u guys put ds poor lady's age into cognisance before givn ur advises?
Are u guys aware dt d onset of menopause now varies?it somtimes appear in late 30's.
However,d intent matters in whatever we do,sinz d intent of d is a process leading to marriage,
I candidly advise she consens to d man's request.

u dt mentioned sex got the post wrong>> d question is what attracted them> I think neatness and d liveliness of d guy's company does

Quite pathetic! I wonder where we are heading to in this country... Much as i wish to commiserate with the family, I want to greet the whole house,i finally make it to nairaland tonight after several failed attempts... I greet u all.
