If you are unemployed or Underemployed; Stop Sitting at Home;
Consider this

A lot of people have reached out to say it is difficult to get a job without having an influential connection, I totally disagree.

The problem is most of us sit down and expect jobs to come to us.

Employers don't owe you any jobs

See below Strategies that may help your job search;

1. Don't sit at home , move round, attend events

2. When you meet people, do not just greet them and leave, make a connection by striking a conversation and do not be shy to say you need a job.

3. Nurture the connections you make and keep in touch.

Don't expect that once you tell someone once you need a job, they ll always remember.

Keep in touch and don't be a nuisance.

Most people prefer text messages.

4. Do unsolicited visits to companies- A lot of mid sized businesses need employees and they will be willing to hire you.

5. Be well dressed as you move around.

Don't because you are unemployed look tattered and unkept, no employer wants an untidy employee. There are a lot of cheap options.

6. Volunteer, do internships even if the pay only cover your transport & feeding.

Offer to work for free rather than sitting at home. No experience is a waste.

7. Looking for a job is a full time job, so give it your best. Don't be tired of applying for jobs in 2023

I wish you all the best in your job search

People should just be roaming around saying they need jobs?

Advise them to become value creators. Don't ask for jobs. Develop real skills then do everything else on the list but instead of telling everyone you need a job, tell people what you can do for them.

StrongandMighty:
Hahahahahaha ... Massive indeed
Ordinary okpara square ruling party can't fill up

It's Monday, only idle people go to rallies and the like.

Right?

TheGoodJoe:

There is no room for tribalism at this time. We need the best and credible hand to run this country.

Peter Obi has a track record of not looting and also knows how to run international business to succeed.

Nope. Peter Obi is a known looter.

That doesn't make him incompetent, nor am I saying he is the biggest looter, but he is definitely a looter.

SocialJustice:
Sowore is a tyrant and a thief. If he's serious about the presidency, let him win a lower office first and prove himself there. Nobody will give the controls of Nigeria to a totally untested person.

Totally untested you say - so how you take know say him be tyrant and thief? Wetin him steal before?

LocalStandard1:
Is it not this same North? Some people will receive the shock of their lives this elections.
Leave Nairaland and go to other credible unbiased websites and see this same crowd mocking your Babablue. All these gagaraga you guys are displaying on Nairaland ends here.

What will shock you is that after mocking him they will still line up and vote for him.

It's not about Tinubu the man. It is about what he represents to them - the advantages for their tribe and so on.

When their leaders tell them to vote Tinubu they will do so without hesitation.

Thinkam:
Why don't you hold down the ones still at home first, so those outside can see your sincerity...

Do these APC people think, when people sell all their properties and leave do you think it's a sudden thought?, those guys won't comeback unless you fix things...



Oh smartypants educate me pwess
Aren't you the one off point, they are focusing on those who have already left and have probably been engaged by foriegn establishments, the fact is if our doctors weren't good enough just the way they are those countries won't accept them, so all these conversion of drain to gain is BS, we make competent doctors already, paying those guys that left, just to teach Those that stayed is waste.

Focus on those who stayed!!!

It's obvious he never said they were going to bring back those who left. He said they are creating ways to engage them from the places they've gone to.

Now that you've read you're changing mouth.

In any case, it is obvious Nigeria cannot pay doctors the way the UK can so there is nothing the government can do to stop brain drain. Doctors are already probably the highest-paid class of government employees by sector (not by rank or organization), aren't they? People will move if they see better opportunities regardless.

Konjiboii:
Very useless govt, this is clearly another way to siphon money, why get foreigners to do the job our doctors are already professionals for, why not increase the salary of our medical staffs and fly them abroad for courses and seminars if the need arise. Na so we go begin hear billions and trillions for this project.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Go back and read what he said!

When you read headlines and respond without reading the content, these are the sort of off-point contributions you make.

Penguin2:
So, how this one take concern Obi and his ambition to liberate Nigeria and Nigerians?

At least Peter Obi has companies, one of which you are reporting was struck off by UK Authorities.

Where are Tinubu’s companies?

Seems like your argument is that both Obi and TInubu are similar in some ways.

Are you directing us to candidates like Kwankwaso who seem to be clean?

d4gmail:
You are not purchasing anything so why are you submitting your PIN? Of course it is a scam.

When you take a loan from these services you have purchased something sir. Your interest payment is the cost of service (the loan you accessed).

GeneralPula:
Damn

Pit bull is one aggressive dog. As a human, if you’re not aggressive, you may never be able to breed it..

Quite the opposite. Using aggression with such dogs makes them dangerous.

Theh need to be socialized and loved.

Godfullsam:
What religious requirements

I have never seen any religion that mandates any man/woman to get married.

You've not seen any religion that requires you to get married in order to have children?

InfernoNig:
Companionship and reproduction.

A girlfriend can give you that. The question is why marry her...and the answer in most cases is to fulfil religious requirements

tempest01:
His ambition is not the problem. His statements are.

When he said northerners will not vote for Obi? Is that bigotry? That's him saying what you and i both know to be true.

tempest01:
Kwankwanso just let bigotry get better of him.
If I was in his position, I would have given Obi the ticket and made someone like Abba Gida the vice.

The problem is that they were still calculating that the South was still collectively gullible and will join them in bigotry and also continue playing second fiddle.

They forget that they just completed an abysmal tenure and people have been forced to wake up.

Bigotry bigotry bigotry. Someome cannot habe his personal ambition or reasons without it being bigotry??

Why are you people like this?

This one is the height of it. Burger with cornflakes inside? Is it by force to sell burger? They should have stuck to puff puff and egg roll na.

Even meat-pie dey tire me to buy these days. Except say na from some big eateries. Which one is ponmo and twist pasta inside meat pie. You call something fish pie and there is no fish inside. Shawarma nko? they will pack cabbage and full inside.

Na why I no dey chop all these fancy things anyhow. Just give me popcorn and cold water. When I get home, I’ll make eba, put on fan and eat well well. Tufiakwa!

NIgerian shawarma in general is not fit for consumption. Now, the original Lebeanese shawarma, on the other hand is delicious.

mmadu4:
she enjoyed it. fear women ooo . both married and single. by the way what is a married woman doing with condom in her bag? hmmmmm

Cant you read? She said she told him that so as to find a way to escape!

potent5:
What can you do about it, you little piece shit? Always sounding like your drugged gibberish-uttering master. I am sure you are one lout collecting owomida under Ojuelegba bridge. Idiot.

Why would I have to do anything about it? You have nothing to offer and will be ignored henceforth.

potent5:
The joke is on you, my dear.

In other words...you're an empty vessel? A loud mouth with no substance? A time wasting, attention seeking troll?

Just as i thought. Don't ever quote me with your nonsense.

potent5:
I don't expect you to know that Sowore makes his money from the charade of being an activist. Any day he stops castigating and revolting against the government, the foreign NGOs for democracy will stop sponsoring him. If you think otherwise, name one business Sowore has anywhere in the world.

I know you believe that Sowore is actually contesting to win the presidential election, when he can't win ordinary house of assembly election.

Good point. Can you share the details of the NGOs sponsoring him?

Names and amounts donated would do.

sweetjohn:
I can bet my last card that you went to school and graduated with 5th class. When has attacking people who did not know you existed a character? That is actually lack of character.

Pls go back to school and graduate normally

I don't mind debating contrary views even when presented with insults, but not from a worthless and stupid penis enlargment scammer with nothing upstairs. You cant even express yourself coherently.

Get off my mentions.

potent5:
Sowore appears to lack character.

Name one of the candidates who has stood for a particular principle and paid the price for it?

Not one of them. Except maybe Tinubu when he fought Obasanjo on the rights of states.

Today all of them will say all sorts about Bujari amd APC. But who among them faced Buhari and went to prison for it?

Who among them is still facing sanctions for his activism?

The one you say lacks character.

Nigerians are unbelievable.

ArchiLimited:
It's not rocket science. African teams are by and large quite successful in FIFA youth tournaments but struggle to go past quarterfinal stage at adult world cups where they meet their mates. It doesn't take a big degree to figure out the reason

I can show you statistically that age cheating cannot be isolated as the only explanation.

Excluding African teams how many countries who uave won the world cup have also won the u17 in the last 20 years?

There are significant differences in the quality of youth coaching in the west and motivation levels that need to be accounted for.

JOemmy:
You are not more wiser or intelligent than the founding fathers of nigeria that agreed that power should be rotated between the north and south they even wrote it down in the nigerian constitution in the form of quota system which the north have even benefited far more than the south.

The so-called founding fathers of Nigeria wrote no such thing down. The idea of federal character is applicable only to appointments. Making such a mistake in interpreting the Constitution means you are a legal and political infant and have no business debating issues here. You should rather be listening and learning.

And you can speak for your wisdom or intelligence, not mine. Wisdom is proved right by her children. If the founding fathers were so wise we wouldn't be here today. In fact, I say the founding fathers as you call them, were selfish men with selfish ambitions.

That said, it is obvious that the 1999 Constitution you've quoted has nothing to do with the so-called founding fathers.

JOemmy:
This buhari's fulani regime where fulani jihadists masquerading as herdmen have recked havoc to millions of innocent non fulani nigerians without any arrests or prosecution should have taught any reasonable nigerian the need why power needs to be rotated between the north and south.

So following your premise, the solution is that after fulanis leave power we'll have peace for 8 years and then they'll come back and start again for another 8 years?

Can you hear what tribalistic reasoning is making you say? Instead of focusing on competent persons like Kwankwaso who have no record of bigotry, the only solution you can think of is rotating between regions.

It's obvious Fulanis have ruled Nigeria before and we've never had it this bad. Therefore equating all Fulanis with Muhammadu Buhari is obviously unreasonable. Even doubly so, to equate the entire north with Fulanis for the purposes of driving your ethnical agenda.

Jennyclay:
Biko, what is nice about this nonsense? abi don't you have sense?
What's wrong with it these yeye sadist lecturers? .

These are the yeye lectures that demand sex for grade

They keep forming demi-god.

Nonsense!

School has resumed. If you are not in school how does that make the lecturer sadistic? It rather implies that you are not serious and need to be disciplined in order to save you from destroying your life.

JOemmy:
So u don't see anything wrong for a fulani man handing over to another fulani man?

He's obviously not a Fulani man.

Besides it's obvious there are many people ready to vote for Atiku. So why not Kwankwaso?


Then again, where has this idea of ethnical rotation taken us as a country?

Any profit to it?

I'm yet to understand why most Niverians don't see Kwankwaso as their prefered candidate.

Maybe he has not really built the bridges he should have.

judecares1:
Any Reasonable Nigerian who is still supporting both PDP and APC something is really wrong with you
Nigeria is the eye of Africa and all what you can is to support whom will borrow more for the unborn generation.
Until we travel outside Nigeria that is when we realize how wasteful and blind we have being in supporting our oppressors

Nigerians stood up and spoke with one voice during Endsars we can still do same by retiring desperate politicians who sees presidency as retirement home

Please lets take away tribe, religion or ethnicity from politics and get it right now.

Na una Sabi oo. I dey enjoy my winter oo,so if una like vote errors and euros go fall which favours us more

I agree with you. Away with PDP, APC and anyone who has ever been a bonafide member of these groups.

It's time for us to look to the future. Will you join me in lending your support to Sowore?

TheBoy1740:
They already freed them sef. They explained their side on twitter. It was pretty funny.

He's not been released.

Jeweltz:
We have been conditioned to believe that sex will keep a man glue and obsessed about you. No.

I read a thread yesterday of a man dating a single lady who's denying him sex, but the man doesn't still leave her. See that .

Men are wired differently. A man will beg you for sex for many days and immediately you open your leg, he run away after hitting it and stop giving you attention that you deserve. Before you open your leg at all, make sure he's obsessed and his brain programmed to the thought of you alone. This is not difficult provided you don't show him how much you love him. Make him do the chasing. Men like that won't leave you.

There was a guy who was on my case. I like him. But I know Nigerian men. They'll use you once they see you're in love with them. I hoard my love and I told him no sex. No amount of convincing worked. And he was always on his toes making sure he doesn't deviate from showing me love and care.

But still, most of our men are liars and could be getting the sex somewhere else.
That's why a woman should close her leg until you know that he will marry you. Don't fall for their lies

Sex isn't all that. We have natural biological drives to want sex but once we have it, in the moments after, it feels like it was overrated.

That is why you should do the opposite of what you've just said.

The more you make a man chase you for sex, the bigger his disappointment when he finally gets it. And the faster he will run away.

Just think about it logically. What does a hunter do after a successful chase? He rests. Then finds another target.

What you should do is focus on choosing a person who can be your friend if sex is taken off the table. Then give them the sex reasonably early. If you make sex a prize, you will get dumped when he gets it from you. In the eyes of the hunter, you'll have nothing left to offer. Except maybe he wants to use you for a while longer.

Don't make a man chase you.
