Hi everyone, I read some people are searching for jobs in the UK and I came across some news headlines that UK is now in shortage of labour especially unskilled labour, like farm work, truck driving and restaurants job etc and from what I know they are willing to pay.. So if you don't mind this type of jobs you can try them, I just thought I should share, thanks and God bless.

Hi, please is anyone having their interviews on the 20th of July.

Please is there any one having their interview on 20th of July?

What I noticed in this is the part you called Nigeria a third world country, to me third world country is just a stylish way of calling a country backward which seems really disrespectful you can just use developing country instead, good luck.
Kindly help me review it.

I was previously denied a visa in July, 2019 @ Abuja. While my interview didn't last for up to 2minutes the only questions asked was "why this school" and "what other schools did you apply to?". What I noticed afterwards was that she felt I should have gone with one of the schools other than one I was going to. Note,she didn't spill this out directly but it was crystal clear that was what she implied. Well,I didn't reapply until now.

My interview is in few weeks from now and below is my proposed transcript.


All protocol observed...

VO:Where are you headed to?
ME: Grand valley State University for my Master's in Criminal Justice with a Concentration in Law Enforcement Administration.

VO: You were denied in 2019 so,what has changed since then?

ME: I completed my PGD diploma in Criminology and Security Studies at the National Open University of Nigeria in 2020. I left my former job at Soji Solomon & Associates and now work as a Field operating officer, a subset of the Criminal Investigative Department of the NPF.

VO: Why this School?

ME: This field is sub divided into three which are Law enforcement administration, Courts, Rehabilitation and correction. Since I'm more interested in identifying crime and apprehending criminals, Law Enforcement suit me best. After checking the brochure of this school,I realise it is a perfect match with my current job while it also aligns with my career goals since it allows me concentrate in Law Enforcement Administration.

In addition to this,I was admitted to two schools. In other to be sure,I proceeded to check the course curriculum for both schools. Unlike NMSU, the course curriculum at GVSU cut across all the three sub divisions of the field even though over 65 percent of my courses would concentrate on LEA. This was not the case at NMSU.

More so,I would be opportune to work with the only female professor of crime mapping in this field. Her expertise in this area of CJ is highly needed in the management of crime and security in my country. Having reached out to her and considering I have a background in Criminology and SS,she is glad to have me work with as she is currently working on a research that attempt to address insecurity in third world countries,one of which is Nigeria.

VO: What will this program do for you?

ME: In Feb. 2020, we received what was supposed to be a classified Intel from Narcotic department of the NDLEA about the whereabouts of a wanted drug baron. Unknown to us that someone within our department had been compromised,we walked into an ambush. I practically saw my life flashed before my eyes...my daughters without a father and a lot flashed within my mind. I came to the conclusion that a dead man can't fight crime hence,I feel I would be more useful with the administrative section of my department which is the brainbox of the whole department. Unfortunately, the minimum requirement to switch is a Master's degree.

We have over 240million Nigerians with none of us knowing what's coming next. Reports shows that crime that takes days,weeks and months to plan are the ones with the most casualties hence this kind of crimes(Kidnapping,bank robbery, etc) can effectively me managed with the help of crime mapping. Working with Prof. Tina Godfrey,the only female academician to partner with the FBI in the hunt for Osama Bin Laden having adopted crime mapping would be helpful in this regards.


Upon successfully completing this program,I will be opportune to take the administrative exam plus I would automatically skip four stages. Should I pass the exam,the offer it comes with includes but not limited to increment in Salary.


VO: What's your study plan?

ME: I am expected to complete 36 credits throughout the duration of my program which means 9 credit per semester. I would be taking courses like Criminal Justice Research, Crime analysis and Data Collection, Society and Policing, The mind of the artist etc. I am expected to maintain a 3.25GPA to remain in the Program and a 3.52 GPA to be considered for a GA in Winter.

VO:What's your educational and work background?

ME: I completed my Bachelor's degree in Philosophy in 2015 and proceeded for the compulsory NYSC program in mid 2016 which was completed in Mid 2017. I worked briefly with Educare Foundation after which I left to work with Soji Solomon and Associates. I left there in 2019 for my Post Graduate Diploma in Criminology & SS which was completed in late 2020. Towards the tail end of 2020,I applied and got employed as a Field Operating Officer, a subset of Criminal Investigative Department of the NPF.


What's your take ??[/quote]

[quote author=Slim4Rehani post=102611024]He ought to start by defending what he has been doing since after high school and then how that course will help him more when he got to Nigeria because he has experience already so all he needs more to quality education to make him more successful in his career. Finish


The vo didn't ask for all that, he said what will be doing after the degree, if he wanted to know when she finished secondary school, he would have asked

[quote author=Slim4Rehani post=102608180]You didn't answer very well: what are your plans after your degree:
Prepare yourself and pray then go back



I don't think there is anything wrong with the way she answered the question, the answer seems fine to me, but I think it her profile.

Hi, I will like to ask what you filled in your DS 160 form and also who you sponsor is and why a community College.. If you don't mind we can chat on WhatsApp.

Vo: what are you going to do in the US and where are you going?
Me: I’ll be going to Kansas, to pursue my associate degree in pre nursing science at Butler community college.
Vo: ok, what are your plans after your degree
Me: after my degree I’ll be back to Nigeria to work as a nurse in a top rated hospital or even establish a mini home plus where I can take care of elderly people.( at this point he was already bringing out the blue paper, but I didn’t stop talking).
