Honestly with self control,anything is achievable.

Another nollywood movie,watch out for part 2

to be candid,looking at the situation critically,any downsizing the economy is facing presently was caused by the last administration's negligence.
The spill over resulted to negative result s in the recent administration.
Anyone with experience managing business or leading large crowds will understand what am saying.

Taking Lagos state as an example,When Buba maruwa was the governor the state was generating only 300 million naira monthly as internally generated revenue,Jagaban came in 2003, it increased to over 6 billion monthly, fashola came in it increased to close to 24 billion monthly,ambode came in,as at the last time I checked it was above 24billion , 24.5 billion monthly. What am I saying in excess
If Tunubu didn't increased the revenue by laying the foundation,successive governments wouldn't have been successful in increasing it.
In government continuity is the key to sustainable growth and development.

If Jonathan had laid a good foundation,am sure brother buhura wouldn't have any excuse to perform below.

Nice one bruv...

@lauwhyte pls cn i send u an email,i need to speak with u,its urgent..i hv sent u a pm,pls reply...thanks.

@Scantee i must say this "you dont know your " worth".
Fine,shit happens all in the name of lof abi nah love..i guess you are suffering from Limerence...its better you avoid it before it turns to an obsession.....

The Simple truth is the more you are trying to win her love,or get her back the more you will fail,...just let her be for some months and live your life,you are a Man already and not a boy,you might even regret marrying her on the long run.You dey think say you go fit change her abi.....

My brother you've been buying her love for a long time with gifts and d likes,am not against buying gifts for ur girlfriend but i guess yours was too much....


i can bet that it was the girl's innocence that attracted you at first,you thinking she knows nothing and you have forgotten that University has a way of uttering your attitude,bro i believe she will still come back...she wants to explore(youthful exuberance),its a normal thing for everyone.

My recommemded solutions are:


My guy just try hang out,you will definitely see new and better chick or just hit the club...just do that the more this days,a week time i can bet you go dn forget about the chick....
when ever you go on outing snap with new friends especially female...upload on your social media...

What i feel is wrong with this ur girl is that you have become so predictable,just try and change d game plan...
My best advice is that you should socialise more....period....
This once happened to a close friend of mine....

Its really a place to be,Its worth the hustle.

jekormor:

Bro i feel you should just try and garner some years of experience with other Audit firms not as big as the "BIG 4" Firms, like Grant Thornton ,BDO, SIAO Partners, PKF,Howarth Dafinone,Phillips Consulting and the likes from there you can move to any of the BIG 4 as a Senior associate by then...
Na jst my 3 kobo advice bro....

There are very few things in life that are as satisfactory as getting a job soon after graduating from university. As such, it isn’t strange to see entry level employees suddenly feel they have ‘arrived’ and can now enjoy all the “good things” that comes with life. Unfortunately we all have limitations in life which makes our wants always limited to choices. It is why no matter how much we earn it is never enough to cater for all our needs. This fact becomes even more pertinent for interns or freshly employed graduates. Whilst your newly earned salaries puts you at the start of financial independence, there are certain financial decisions you may be tempted to make that can put you quickly on the path of financial ruin and take away money that would have been better served for investment purposes. Here are some examples:
Consumer loans

The moment you pick up that plum job and start seeing your bank accounts swell, banks, shops, and businesses that offer all sorts of consumer products will approach you. In Nigeria, it is a given to be offered debit cards once you open a bank account. What follows next are credit cards and all kinds of promos that make acquiring things you need and don’t need pretty easy. For those who find it hard being frugal it’s the easiest way into financial ruin. You must try to avoid them except where necessary and start by learning to live according to your means.
Cars

Cars are an important aspect of life and as Nigerians, we depend on them a lot to commute and carry on with our daily livelihood. Due to the poor transportation network in the country, the choice of having a car makes this asset irresistible and far above our needs. Despite its importance one needs to be smart about buying a car. For example, an entry-level employee need not buy an expensive car just because of the need to own a car. Because cars are very easily prone to upgrades a new car today can become relatively obsolete tomorrow. Cellphones I like cellphones a lot and I have used or bought most of the most popular brands around. However, I have made two important observations. One is that phones also get obsolete pretty quickly. The latest phone today can soon be a “has been” tomorrow. The industry is just so competitive that phone makers fall over each other to release newer versions. This also leads me to my next observation that phones become cheap within a short period. A phone bought for N100, 000 today can be worth N50, 000 in a month’s time. Based on this, one wonders why people don’t wait till phones are cheap before you can buy them? The reason is probably that the phones are so very well marketed and advertised and the lure to be the first to own them far outweighs the wisdom of owning the same product at a bargain. House Owning a home is mostly regarded as a fulfillment of one’s mission in life and an attainment of an important societal goal. That said, a house is not an end in itself and shouldn’t be considered as the most important thing in life. An entry-level employee has no business taking out a mortgage in the early stages of their careers. Rather than burdening yourself with debts early on, efforts should be directed at building up your investments. You can buy lands when the opportunity arises in the hope that the value rises in future and then use the capital gains as equity to purchase a property of your own. Also, living in neighborhoods associated with high rents should be avoided by all means as you begin your career. It does nothing more than eat into money meant for investments. Computer and gadgets Everyone needs a computer and gadget in this modern world of ours. However, just like cellphones, computers, tablets and gadgets are easily replaceable and cost less over a very short time. Computers for example range between N50, 000 to N500, 000 and all can relatively perform basic computing functions. Tablets are even worse as they cost more and are suboptimal when it comes to core computing functions however; people spend a lot on these items. As a fresh intern, what you need is to get yourself a basic gadget that meet your immediate need at the cheapest of prices.
Fashion

Fashionable items are an irresistible part of life and tend to consume a huge portion of our income. As an intern or freshly employed, been fashionable ought not to be a priority. I made that mistake myself and spent a lot trying to look good all the time. However, each time I invested so much in looking good a new trend is quickly ushered in and soon my expensive wears become obsolete as well. Looking back, I realised all I needed was just something nice, basic, time-tested and cheap. I need not spend that much wearing the latest when after all I could have still done that now that I am older and better financially secured. The lesson is that fashion is not running away and would always remain part of humanity. Therefore, if you are out of it today you can easily catch up tomorrow.

Expensive vacation

It’s great to enjoy a vacation once in a while even as a fresh recruit. Just like above, vacation hot spots are there forever and so, if you miss going on vacation this year, you can still get the same fun next year. If you must go on vacation, make sure it is to a destination you can afford. It is however more important to base your decision to go on vacation on how far you have come in your investment life. Only go on expensive vacations after you have met your investment goals and when you can afford it.

PWC no dey collect combined result bo$$

I just cant get enough of this movie."LIMITLESS" starring Bradley Cooper.

The experience helped in securing the job and works as a business analyst,not that immediately he left KPMG to join the O&G firm he started earning those millions,NO!!! It was after some years which was over 5 ,and subsequent salary reviews.. No company will be willing to pay you that high with such years of experoience without you spending some years with them first... Hope have answered your question BO$$

I also heard alot about Accenture too.
But it seems Accenture mostly favour candidates with experience in Technology,ICT Consulting in general,than having no experience in this field at all,someone should correct me if am wrong!!!!
I can remember an Inlaw of mine who once worked with KPMG Advisory as a management Consultant for 3year plus,and now works with one of the American O&G Firms here in Naija,earning over #1,500,000 monthly....mehn

happyday:
Toseman, You've started well.
I once had interest in this field, especially the McKinsey path. First, there's a reason why they are paid that much (your ballpark figures are right). . . the process is fiercely competitive. Abroad, the application process no be here, but a little bit friendly here in their Nigerian office.
You need to be truly exceptional, be top amongst your peers, which would get you a chance to write their PST - a test you can't write without intense prep on accuracy and speed.
Thereafter, you go through series of interviews - behavioural and case interviews.
Behavioural interviews draw on your ability to share past experiences, and how you can bring such expertise to bear.
Case interviews is where the work is at. They give you a client scenario, and ask what would be your advice; which is the kind of work you'll be dealing with as a Consultant.
In all, you need good resources and intense practice all through.
Above all, God's mercy is paramount. Some factors are simply beyond our control; some call it luck or goodwill.

You are very right bro,(Some factors are simply beyond our control; some call it luck or goodwill).
The exposure you get to business problems is one of the major reasons i love this job.
I once applied for Mckinsey's Leadership program like that before going for my NYSC,in all honesty,the process was quite a tough one.
But if given any opportunity with any of these Consulting firms i will so much proove myself.

a management consultant has got some transferable skills which is also needed in the Investment banking industry.
Ranging from data gathering to data analysis and also creating models on these datas. Consultants are experts when it comes to using excel and powerpoint.
one of the major advantage of working with such firm is that you tend to gain exposure to different industries and business problems and also providing real time solutions.
The former managing director of Jovago Nigeria(a subsidiary of Jumia), Marek Zmyslowski was once a management consultant with Mckinsey & co,this show how important experiences one can garner from being a consultant.

A regular managment consultant in any of these above listed firms is well paid more than an Auditor& Tax associate,investment banker.
Mckinsey&co salary for new intakes is close to #300,000 monthly...from a very good source.

They work across different industries ranging from banking,energy,consumer goods ,pharmaceuticals etc.
The jobs involves working on cases and provision of professional advice as regards a new firm's entry into a market,operations strategy,reducing costs,merger and acquisitions,increasing market share and lots of other things.

It is not only in Lagos,Abuja or PH you can serve in an O&G coy.
Delta state,warri especially, Calabar,Bayelsa,in short Niger Delta States afford you the Opportunity to serve in an O&G Coy provided you've got the right connects.

Consulting Management Professionals should please help enlighten us all.
We've the PWC advisory,KPMG Advisory,Deloitte consulting,Accenture consulting.
The likes of Mckinsey&co, am not sure of the presence of Bain &co,Booz & co's presence in Nigeria.

Hi peeps!! Does any one here know the intoto of what Revenue management is.
From gathering of raw datas and Forecasting using excel and every other tools used in Revenue Management.
Someone who knows alot about the subject should kindly enlighten us all,thanks.

Good afternoon room. Can someone help forward the KPMG past questions to this email
tsleek@live.com
Its very urgent.

unofficial:
Not entirely correct.

You will do the first SHL test at home, so you can choose to use a calculator as big as a mainframe for it.

For the verification test however, PwC will provide you with a calculator that can perform just simple arithmetic calculations. More like what's applicable with JAMB.

Thanks for the Correction Bo$$
