jhydebaba: Someone should just take the votes and give us an answer at the end of the day.


UNITY BANK

Pataki: GTB is the most useless bank in Nigeria! I have never seen such a useless bank like theirs before. Very poor and appalling customer service. They look at you as if you are coming to beg money from them.

Before coming to Nigeria, I used to think the bank was all that. However my first hand experience with them shows that they are better off packing up their services. That bank gives me a headache at all times.

Zenith bank and First bank are the only reliable banks in Nigeria.

chyzoo4u: Nice
outfit,
Ugly kids.

babanne: u are so wrong.not setlig 4 less means lookin 4 an already wealthy person.d question is:is marriage all about money?money & material things are d reason many ladies remain unmarried because they are lookin 4 wealthy men.they dont know d essence of marriage.seconf,one reason 4 high divorce is due lack of respect on d part of d woman & their inability 2 submit to their husband as god want them to be.i advice that you stop preaching matetialism as a basis for marriage and allow serious prospective wifes to think about d essence of mayrimony,which are LOVE, SUBMISSION AND RESPECT.

thehunted: Reply to ur point one. There is hardly a good girl who wouldn't see a guy to marry. Hardly.

Your points 2,3,4 are so rare.

luvmijeje: Oops am seeing this late.I said it,most people on NL have been programmed to think one way.So immediately u see less,it means settling for a rich guy.
Fine,money is an important ingredient but is relative as far basic necessities of life is met.
Now,at this stage due to alot of influence,people get marry for the sake of I want to get marry.When I wrote 'less' I mean settling for a guy that is abusive,a wife beater,irresponsible etc.A guy u know u wont settle for if not for the pressure.

ObamaUS: Thanks very much for your kind observations.I am an employer of labour and i placed an advert in one of the dailies on January 1st,2013.
It was very disturbing to find out that over 80% of applicants including unexperienced and fresh graduates sent their CVs to my email without introducing themselves and even addressing the CV to the recruiter.
Áll what they do is "Pls find attached,My CV,FYI'.
It got to a point i had to mail some of them and sincerely advised them never to do such things as it turns recruiters off because they receive thousands of emails and CVs and they can be put off with any little stuff.
It's quite disrespectful and rude to just send a CV without any introduction of yourself and respectful way of addressing the employers.

Please recruiters all over the world get put off with all these childish and arrogant mode of applying for jobs.

Most Nigerian graduates are not cultured and just because they have blackberry,they just think they can forward CVs to employers thinking manna will fall from heaven.
Most of the time the meaning you are passing to such recruiters is that you don't value such jobs and that is why you can just forward your CV leaving the recruiter to open the attachment.
Let's change our attitude and orientation.There are jobs in Nigeria.You only need to have the right attitude and the skills to get such jobs.
I just hired somebody yesterday on a monthly salary of N350k.The guy was very respectful in his application and mode of sending his CV.God bless you guys and God bless Nigeria

MOELLIOTT: I recruit abroad. And in agreement with poster, I do consider maturity based on email addresses. The higher you go or want to go, the more important these things become.

The issue of CV sent via Blackberry itself isn't main challenge, the highlight is the fact that it was sent without at least a short cover letter.

By all means send the CV even with your BB, but with a brief mail - short greet, brief introduction (I am responding to advert for ... in abc journal dated), one line - selling yourself (I am a first class graduate of....). Then one line - saying why you believe you are suited to post - note three inputs here a, b and c - (a. knowledge) My education ....., b. skills I have ABC skills (I am good at)...... and c. experience in/at/over xyz years (include paid and voluntary work - eg time spent helping uncle John in his small soap factory as well)...... makes me most suited for the advertised position of....).

New paragraph - one line - notifying recipient the CV is attached and a closure stating you wait to hear - All very brief.

I have been told many feel the need to "beef up" the company they are applying to - don't over do it. e.g. I beg to apply to work in your most esteemed, renowned, highly placed, reputable, international organisation. It is not needed and you are not begging, you are applying. Rather say, I would like to be considered for the position of ....... It sounds and reads better.

Thank God for internet - please if job hunting, access form filling and interview skills sites and train yourself on how it should be done. If you need help, always ask someone who you know is good at it.

Always REMEMBER you are competing against 100's of others for the post. The recruiter is going through so many applications. Help him and help yourself - MAKE YOURS STAND OUT! It requires effort.

Every success.

Chinwem: [size=16pt]For all those crazy Nigerians dishing out insults the original post said 10pm!!!!
Latecomers!!!!
You lack basic comprehension and deductive reasoning- analysing the posts adjacent to mine should have made you realise that!!!
Behaving like Nigerian police-common sense you people don't have!!!!
Respect your useless selves. Always ready to dish out insults!!Typical hungry looking frustrated people, slow to bless eager to insult!!!
It shows you lead miserable lives!!!
What a nation??!!![/size]

Michky: Am very certain that this is the same mentality that got the wife hospitalized today. If you were stronger shey? You too will soon get the hospital treatment deserving of you real soon. Its a guarantee.

991: next time, as she lifts her palms to slap you, hold her hand, look directly into her eyes and say, 'Don't You Dare!!' believe me fear go catch her.

biolabee: ok sir then please start DOING ALL so we do not see threads like

'MY WIFE DOES NOT APPRECIATE MY SACRIFICES FOR HER" or
"HEARTLESSNESS OF MODERN DAY WIVES"

ba7man: Yes!!!!....Exactly!!!...You are supposed to beat, kick, drag and stomp annoying women on the floor before shooting or stabbing them in the eye....Don't forget to do the same thing to annoying muscular guys too. Eeeeediot.

Michky: Foo! If she had approached the guy maturedly, the matter wont have gotten out of hand. That's for sure. As we see in Op's post, she brought up the matter many times. Do you think a woman that wants peace would do that?

kunmibola: @CC, pls don't mix things up. They were not away for three days rather, the exercise lasted for 3days. During the exercise I was almost always around the baby which is always in the care of my wife's friend who works in the complex. Once the baby cries, the lady would call my wife to come attend to her. Most times, the baby is always sleeping especially during the day. The day my inlaw came around, I was even th eone who took her to where my baby was after which I called my wife to come greet her. I left there and I returned after like thirty mins to see the feeding bottle with the food. My wife was nt even busy then cos I called her to come. Hence, had it been the baby was crying they could have contacted her to come. The issue is, this woman came with the intention of feeding the baby. I dnt have any issue with my wife but the woman... The is too troublesome!
