Jobs/VacanciesRe: Why Have I Always Failed Job Aptitude Test??? Most Especially Dragnet by The5DME(m): 6:50am On Jul 25, 2022
Hannania:
You're forgetting that it takes sufficient programming and analytical thinking to be able to solve algorithms and come up with an optimal solution. It's almost impossible to be good at DSA and not proficient as a developer.

Even if your project building is not solid, that can easily be done. That's why companies use DSA to weigh everyone.

Good DSA knowledge proves a lot about your aptitude as a developer. For big firms, even if you cram a question and see it, which is 40% chance, there would always be edge cases that will test your knowledge of why things are.

So it's not as you see it
Good morning bro. I've been meaning to ask you this: how can a non-engineering major(elect, computer, Telecom and computer science), break into the networking field in Nigeria? Most of the ISPs I've looked at seemed to recruit mainly graduates from these majors. In this case, getting the CCNA won't be enough here.
Thanks.

Contrary to your Foolish opinion, Yemi Alade is one of the Few most Celebrated and Decorated Female Actress at the moment Among Angelico..She has been touring counties and she is supposed to go for a Show in Canada when she was denied. And she was denied because of Excess Money in her account. Get sense and get Updated.
Learn to be civil in your discourse with strangers online. Your tirade doesn't speak well of the kind of background you're from.

Dat might not be true bro... Canadian visa officials are just crazy... I once applied with my wife about 4 years ago while on visit in London , with an account balance of about 42mill, evidence of landed props etc.. And we were denied on financial grounds.. Couldnt help the laughter when I saw their reject letter..
That's rather strange.

She's probably broke. Can't remember the last time I heard any of her songs on radio, or watched any of her music videos.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Requirements For A Job In A Tel'com. Company? by The5DME(m): 8:05pm On Jul 23, 2022
Alore:
I work in a Telecom company. The trend in the industry is fast changing and I will advise you to position yourself for the future. Field operation and field maintenance functions in Telecoms companies are being outsourced to Telecoms coy like Ericsson, Huawei, IHS (facilities, infrastructure maintenance). In those companies, graduates of PSE will have jobs but trust me, mostof those jobs can be dead end having no sterling future prospects in the scheme of things - at best you keep on doing the same thing with some little changes.

What is the future of Telecoms? The trend is IP, Cloud Technology, Application-based solutions. On this note, I'll strongly advise you to follow a career path that gets you footing and assures you climbing on the right ladder into the future.

So in summary:
1. go for ECE or COE for your undergraduate study
2. Finish with very good grade (minimum 2.1 or Upper Credit)
3. Get relevant certifications relevant to future-demanding technologies e.g. IP Technologies (Cisco - CCNA, CCNP, CCIE, Juniper, etc). Read more on certification tracks on www.cisco.com/certifications. Get skills/certification on others, like cloud computing, network security and solutions architecture and designs. Also, read up on IT Projects and Business certifications e.g. PMP, PRINCE2, ITIL, AGILE, SCRUM, SIX SIGMA, etc. There are some Telecoms/IT jobs where coding/scripting/software development skills are demanded. Most foreign jobs posted in Telecoms section have these in very high demand. Most of these guys work on the applications side - VAS (Value Added Services e.g. callerbacktunes, Callerfeel, etc.
4. Get a job that gives you experience along any of the above or similar career track and work steadily but swiftly around to learn the ropes and be an authority. Prioritise on company where there is training and exposure to these technologies; the pay may not be much but stick with a company that teaches you hands-on skills. Get as many relevant certifications as you can, ensuring you follow through to at least professional level of your core career track within the first three (3) years of your working.
5. Strategically, look out for a change of roles or position after the first 3 years of your job - it may be with same organisation or outside of it. Recruitment people (HR) seems to love people who have[b] strong career mobility[/b].
6. After your first 3 years, get expert certifications. Also, go for your MSc or MBA, to prepare you for taking up managerial positions.
Continuous learning is the key! Don't spend your early money you made at work to buy Lexus 350 and take up 3 bedroom flat in Lekki!!! Use it instead to invest in your career. If you must travel out, let it be that you go for workshops and seminars relevant to your career! Don't just go there to sleep in expensive hotels and riding in yachts!
Above all, fear God and keep all His commandments! Follow experienced and highly-knowledgeable career gurus in the house like Jarus and Ajanlekoko! These guys are good!
How about physical science students who are interested in working in the Telecom industry, and have CCNAs?

pierrenwob:
Hi, a Degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Physics, Physics Electronics with a First Class or Second Class Upper will almost certainly get you an entry level job into any of the Telecoms company. At least it will get you an interview. I worked in the recruitment unit of one of the GSM Operators for over seven years. Graduate of other Engineering Disciplines have good chances provided they have good result 1st Class/ Second Class Upper. Second Class Lower with relevant Master's Degree is also considered.
How about graduates of physical science, of they have a CCNA and relevant knowledge?

CareerRe: Why You Should Learn A Skill In Nigeria by The5DME(m): 11:44am On Jul 16, 2022
Before you venture into any skill, you need to make sure it fits into this two criteria:
1) Your skill tends to serve foreigners, hence you're paid in foreign currency (preferably the USD- for obvious reasons);
2) Your skill tends to target the rich, although minority population of Nigeria, as a vast majority of Nigerians are poor.

Not adhering to these two rules will lead to tears. Just my own little contribution.

Gerrard59:
The strike will end no matter how long it takes. In fact, you should like the strike as it provides much-needed time to learn coding skills and to an extent start preparing for Leetcode..You people have so much time, unlike my days. I only experienced strike once during my time. Going to NOUN is a waste of time and money. Use that money to pay for online courses, data subscriptions or probably buy a better laptop.

I am pretty sure you have seen the reason I and Tensa20 emphasised doing a four-year course as opposed to any engineering course.

What do you think?
Good morning bro. Due to the lingering ASUU strike, which no one really knows when it's going to end(most likely next year), I've been thinking of enrolling into the National open University for my studies. I really would've loved to experience campus life,but this strike is delaying my schooling, considering the fact that I want to be done with school as fast as I can. Do you advise that I do such? I just need an opinion; thanks!

ProgrammingRe: Re: Amazon Recruitment Of Software Developers In Nigeria 2022. Opinion by The5DME(m): 10:42pm On Jul 06, 2022
Hannania:
For those with profound skills in Agile, and a solid record in development, please search for Grind 75 and study all the questions for the next three weeks.

This is ideally a mid-level role. Amazon places more focus on system design and behavioural aspects.

They will likely ask "Common medium" leetcode questions, considering the country we are in, but 70% of the rating is gonna be on System design and Behavioural.

Good luck wink
I asked you a question before bro.

EducationRe: Apply For 2021/2022 PTDF Local Scholarship For BSc, MSc And PhD Candidates by The5DME(m): 9:05pm On Jul 02, 2022
Hannania:
I've not met a JUPEG awardee before. I doubt it will be accepted. Priority is given to undergraduates that started from 100. But there's no harm in hoping.

And for multiple awards, don't worry. I was on multiple also.
Hey bro, I need your help on something.
Regarding undergrad scholarships, I've seen majority, if not all of them requesting for LGA certificate. But the issue is that I don't think I can travel down to my state to get that done, as I used the affidavit when doing when school registration. Can I use the affidavit in place of the original; willghat suffice?

And secondly, how does one know when these scholarships scheme are out? It's not like they announce it. It's really hard to find out when they've began accepting registration. How did you get to find out about them during your time?
