Godjone: the fools championing this campaingn of calumni are thesame ppl that want a muslim govna. I remember the day the incident occur, som useless indiviaduals were jubilitating around the city wishing the govnor death. I stumbled on some of them and i over-heard them wispering to eachother that it is now high-time a muslim man steer the affair of taraba state. thesame crops of animals were equally responsible for Ibi violence. I av a word for them. Suntain wil return home and continue in his capacity as the governor. A muslim govna as far taraba was concerned wil neva be realizable and is imposicant.
So how are you different from them now? Nigerians sha. Is it the gov's religion that matters, or to have somebody who'll develop your state?

afrikanns: I sincerely experienced most retrogressive governance since I have known what governments seem to represent, the look am observing on the faces of masses everyday seem to be scary, tough everybody seems to be looking for economy way out by all means,either thru rituals,unlawful deals, sex work, 419s and so on and on. Sometimes ago the president requested for increment in the feeding allocation to the Aso Rock that the billions of naira was not eenough for a year; what a country
You're right. Nigerians are actually cowards. Rather than confronting the evil govt destroying their lives, everyone is looking for a shortcut to "making it" - drugs, 419, prostitution, kidnapping, armed robbery, sleeping in churches. Bunch of losers!

Jobs/VacanciesRe: The CV That “works” In Nigeria – Adenike Fadina by skyfall: 2:34pm On Dec 07, 2012
I've made my point and it's very clear. I guess your argument will be more useful under the thread "How to get a job in Nigeria."
Jobs/VacanciesRe: The CV That “works” In Nigeria – Adenike Fadina by skyfall:
jp philips: i dont need to join issues with you because i may not cope with your ignorance, nevertheless, i didn't say people don't get jobs on merit, if you want to know how it happens i will still teach you.

i am only saying that between p!mping CV and making the right contact for a good job in Nigeria, the ratio is 10:90, the only people that understand this are minds like mine, and i cannot make any sense to you if u don't even have the right mind set.

about the exxon example

Once you know that Exxon as a matter of relevance prioritize akwaibomites, (rem. only sharp dudes have this info not some dull fellows who p!mp Cv's)

then the contact preferably should be a chief from those communities around QIT. it is that simple. if Ebeno royal highness recommends you for a job in QIT, guy, not even Exxon head quarters in Houston texas can stop that recruitment.
do you know why??

because their interest is tied around the Amayanabo. as a smart company, the Amayanabo will even have an employment quoter within QIT and sundry contracts.

now where are you really sending the CV to? to the Amayanabo that can make it happen or to some over fed HRO in Mobil towers lagos who will be preoccupied with punctuations and layout??

the choice is yours anyways.
I thought you were going to say something else. Using connection to get jobs happens everywhere and is not limited to MPN or Akwa Ibom. That the oil multinationals in the Niger Delta have a specific quota (that's the correct spelling BTW) for candidates of ND origin is no secret.
Stop sounding like you know what no one else does.

Except the company is owned by your father, the first step for a job seeker is to have a presentable CV. If you give a rubbish CV to an HR manager, he'll return it to you to go and polish it because that CV will still pass through some other people. The man wouldn't want to be seen as bringing in a mediocre.

The king of Ibeno may get you a job but he'll not come and do the job for you. If you mess up you may lose the job. The king will be asked to present someone else. I hate it when people promote mediocrity in the name of "na naija we dey."

The premise of this thread still stands; have a decent CV. You may get lucky to be helped, but sometimes, it's only your CV that'll push you ahead.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: The CV That “works” In Nigeria – Adenike Fadina by skyfall: 10:47am On Dec 07, 2012
jp philips:
listen young man, what he has to offer is contact and it is enough for any serious organization.
instead of reading how to write a CV, i will rather go trim the rough edges of my socialization, it helps me faster than any CV.
do you know why some people are referred to as oga, while some as chairman?? because oga looks at CV while chairman makes it happen.

what you chose to forget is that every organization has an interest some where, why don't you explore the interest of your would be employer than wasting time on CV's.

why is exxon mobil recruiting mostly akwaibomites for QIT operations? ans; interest.what if you happen to be from Ebeno community with a bad CV? Exxon will gladly give you the job to guarantee their interest first before sending you on a course to learn how to write CVs lol.

the problem is that Nigerians believe fairy tales little wonder pastors make it big.

You've said a lot but you still haven't made the point. Even if you come from Akwa Ibom and you're to be employed by Exxonmobil based on this, the very first step is to have a presentable CV. How hard is that to understand? And don't misrepresent facts here, multinationals won't employ you if you don't have good results. Those companies are audited regularly and it's no joke. My friend, the picture you're painting here is too colorful.

People get employed all over the world based on recommendation and sundry reasons, but you don't just walk into an office empty handed. You still need a resume.

I don't know your industry o, but a lot of people still get jobs in Nigeria based on merit only.

@Jidegirl

You're being too defensive. It's a free world and you can apply whatever you like to your or your kid's hair. Don't try to rubbish that documentary because you can't do without relaxers - that's ridiculous. The info contained in it is scientific info freely available online.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: The CV That “works” In Nigeria – Adenike Fadina by skyfall: 7:49am On Dec 07, 2012
Good info.

To the people who think you don't need a good CV to get a job, I understand you. I'm not even willing to work with any company that only recruits through connections. They'll end up recruiting mostly mediocres like you who cannot get anything done without being spoon-fed by their colleagues every time. It also tells a lot about how things work in such companies.

As scarce as jobs are in Nigeria, some people still carefully choose where to work because they know their worth.

Post more details such as the color and year of the car and where it was stolen - you may get lucky. And check with police stations across Lagos. I think they release bulletins on recovered vehicles weekly or bi-weekly. Yes, they do recover a large no of stolen vehicles every week.

Would just like to know which channels are most-watched by Nigerians and in what order.

I'm thinking CNN, African Magic, Supersport, AM Yoruba, AlJazeera, Trace/Soundcity would be high up there. These are the channels I mostly see people watching.

Your opinions please.

[quote author=nwa-ngeme]in civilised world, people do not waste their time doing spell checks or verifying grammer structure on threads because they feel the person who makes a minor mistake perhaps is a german, chinese or even from iceland and hence not very versed in english but in Nigeria or on nairaland, some i diots wont. they just sit down there,feeling funky with their china-made phone,raining curses on a fellow just because they want cheap credits. If you r.etards are so good with the language how come you dont have phd in it and to know that english is a borrowed language only makes it more annoying.[/quote]Abeg leave story.

@OP

When you're ready, you'll tell us how you were hired for this publicity stunt. PDP is a bad product and it's difficult to sell even if you have access to all the nation's resources as PDP currently does. Propaganda can only carry you so far.

The performing PDP govs are a little drop in the ocean and their ostentatious lifestyles (and its attendant waste of public funds, such as the craze for jets) is something people see everyday and cannot ignore. Discerning Nigerians have now come to realize that anyone who has anything to do with PDP is jinxed and no amount of propaganda will change that.
