After your first degree, you don't sit back.

You either get new skills by experience or by book knowledge in such a way that you can apply them

The experience route seems easier.

Graphics design is just an example.

Sales skills is the fastest selling and the most fluid skill I have ever come across in the Nigeria job market.

And I have ever only met one person who says he enjoys sales and he was acting so dreamy as he talked about how he loved to walk up to people to sell something to them.

If you can convince people, who are showing serious interest in a product, to buy it already and they do, you will do well in sales.

Sales is hot. Super hot.
There are always sales vacancy.!

But the Graphics Design job sphere is kind of competitive.

How do you reduce competition?

By upgrading your skill a notch higher.

Animations.

As soon as you announce and show us proofs of your animations works, you will be snatched up quickly never to be found in the job market.

By animations, I mean, those cartoon looking images that talk and move!

There are ways that can always help you get a job,
After your BSC,
find out the hottest selling jobs in the Nigerian market.

You are going to position yourself to get one.

How?
You are going to educate yourself accordingly to get one!

For example, incase you are not aware, Graphics Designing is hot in the Nigeria job space and it doesn't require much.
If you are already creative naturally or artistic naturally, you will do well here.

So what do you do?

Even though you have BSc linguistics?

The answer is simple: you must acquire the graphic design skill!
It is compulsory.

How do you know what skill to acquire in this regard?
It is simple.

Look for a Graphic design vacancy by a good company and check what skills they are asking for.
E.g I know they always ask for Adobe design skill.
Some go on to ask for very many other skills but trust me Adobe design skill already sets you ahead by 70%.

So what do you do?

You give your self a month or two or more or less to acquire that skill.
Visit YouTube for free tutorials (Pray for GOD's guidance before you start searching)

Start learning.

Before you draft your CV, you need to learn to ask GOD to guide you.
Before you draft your cover letter, you need to learn to ask GOD to guide you.
Before you submit your CV, you need to learn to ask GOD to take control.

And when you ask GOD, you need to understand that HE hears you and has answered you.
Yoi thank HIM!

Thank YOU JESUS for my new job, I am grateful DADDY. It is YOUR doing and it is marvelous in my sight. Thank YOU LORD.

GraceAndPeace:
Mainly office related like Admin officer role on the island Lagos. And if it comes with accommodation it would be great.

You will get that job today in JESUS name and not later.
There is nothing impossible for GOD to do, and HE rewards you right now with your dream job. Your new job is already here in JESUS mighty name. Thank YOU JESUS for this new job provision in JESUS mighty name amen.

As from tomorrow, I will share as many as I see.
I haven't really seen such roles with accommodation but such requests or inquiries for accommodation or staff bus are usually made during interviews.

I will try to share jobs here

GraceAndPeace:
@Tradegood. Are you on whatsapp? Let's chat and pray and strengthen our faith. We both have the same mindset.

I believe every Christian is blessed and already favored. The seeming struggle is how to manifest this favour in our experience.

However we have it already because God says so and hence, we should not waste time but praise and thank him as faithfuls who live by what God has said and not by outward appearances which are subject to change.

The problem is not how to or when the job would arrive. It's how long can you go on denying what your senses or feelings are saying and rejoicing in what God has said. This is what births the manifestation and is termed, "fully persuaded" stage.

I myself I'm in need of a good job and know the temptations to deviate from faith to sight. But God is faithful. And the whole world is held by the power of His words. If one of His Word fails the whole universe would crash-- an impossibility.

Living by faith is life.

A good job, that sounds like you have experience already.
What kind of job are you looking for and in what location?

Okay, if you are a job seeker, join me and let us pray:
Heavenly FATHER, I give you praise, I give YOU thanks. Thank YOU for how far you have brought be through life and how far YOU are willing to take me.
FATHER I thank YOU because YOU are good FATHER.
YOU love me and are more than willing to take care of me.

FATHER in Heaven, I come before YOUR throne of mercy and grace, and ask for mercy and forgiveness for shutting YOU out and trying to do this all on my own.
Please forgive me. Forgive me my trespasses in JESUS name.

Help me LORD, I need YOU. I need YOUR help, I need YOU in my life. I need YOUR favour to get a job and I thank YOU because I will get a job.

Thank YOU LORD for making a way for me where there is no way.
Thank YOU LORD for causing the light of YOUR countenance to shine on my CV and on me during job interviews.
Thank YOU LORD for YOUR favour upon me and all my ways in JESUS name. amen.
Thank YOU LORD for giving me a job, I am so grateful LORD, thank YOU in JESUS name.

Just thank GOD for your job.
Praise GOD for your new job.
Everyday.

fortunateme:
I am open economists are into banking and finance, hr bus. dev. Stores/warehouse. I am open forany role.
Please mail me
excel2higherheight@
Yahoo.com
I will be waiting. Thanks

Okay, I am just trying to understand you more, sorry I won't be able to send you a mail.

Are you entry level or you have some experience in the feild?
It is just a tip, when you ask people online for job opportunities, you need to be able to share where you are at: zero experience or experienced, if experienced; what have you done before and how many years.

Why? Because that is how job vacancy are structured.

A job vacancy would tell you we need zero years of experience, or one year of experience or more years and they would also tell you if they would be biased towards some skills.

So if you tell us: any one, it doesn't help people who are reading these posts, who want to reach out to you and help you help you.

You get me?

You don't need to be specific about where you have worked, but you could be general about it.

For example, I have a B.sc in Economics and zero work experience, I would like to work in a bank as a teller, or as accountant but I am really open to any entry level opportunity be it customer service, sales, admin assistant etc.

If you have experience,
I have a Bsc in Economics and have worked in Hospitality, restaurants etc before.
It gives people a better direction on how they can come in and help.

Anyways, from my little understanding of what you have written, you finished school recently and would not mind entry level jobs plus other opportunities?

fortunateme:
Hello,
I seriously need a job. Can you please help me?
Bsc Economics
Abuja but willing to relocate.
Thanks

I can say I know a lot of jobs sites and the most trending jobs in Nigeria on those sites.
I have never come across a vacancy for Economics or an economist
What do you people really do?
Maybe you should include ICAN? I say this because I see a lot of accountant jobs

If there is no funds for ICAN cerificate, have you ever thought about switching career path?
Because for a lot of these Companies recruiting, especially entry level jobs, they just want to know that you have a BSC, the course of study, allot of the time does not matter.

I keep seeing a lot of sales, business development and thousands of IT related skill job vacancies. You may want to switch career path? In the past, which jobs have you been applying for; I just want to understand what you are looking for?

How about Customer service? They don't earn much: 80k-120k, but it is a means of entry into the corporate world.

Trust me a lot of us used customer service as an entry.

Well, I will keep you in mind, if I see something nice:
What year did you finish?
What other skill do you have both natural and acquired ?

And learn to pray, not just a prayer of desperation and frustration but a prayer of thanksgiving. Thank GOD for the job that you are yet to have because you will have it by HIS grace. Give thanks.
Don't ask when. Just gives thanks as long as HE enables you too.

Be like Jacob who said, "I will never let YOU go, unless YOU bless me".
Don't stop giving thanks for your new job till you win because we always win in CHRIST JESUS.

I do see a lot of Abuja jobs, maybe I will share them here.

Debunking the myth that you must know someone to get a job.

Networking is good and it has its advantages but casting it forth as the only way to get a job in Nigeria is not only wrong but evil.

GOD is The Only way to get a job in Nigeria.
The fact that you refuse to go that route or test it, the route of depending on GOD to make a way for you, is nobody's fault.

Believe me, a lot of us do not know "any one" when we apply for jobs and we get it a lot more times we apply for it than we don't.

Not once, not twice not thrice.

We get jobs over and over again even when we don't know someone. In fact that is what is obtainable in Nigeria where your qualifications experience and GOD's grace speaks for you. That's why companies that matter ask you to submit CVs.

And depending on GOD, praying to and asking and thanking HIM for providing us a job is the only way some of us have known to getting jobs.

I remember one of the early, first jobs I got, the Company is so big and has a multinational status kind of structure and ambience that when people realise I work there, they kind of accord me more respect, not knowing I was earning peanuts!
While working there, I remember I had wanted to resign many times, but GOD laid it in my heart to use that period to learn.
It was what I learned on that job that GOD has also blessed and helps use boost my confidence during interviews, that also helps me secure other jobs.

This is the the testimony of a lot of people on this forum and world over; getting jobs by the grace of GOD, without knowing anyone. It is a reality.

Networking is a way of getting jobs but it is not the only way.
GOD is the only way, because if GOD does not bless the people you are networking with to help you, your networking efforts will definitely be in vain.

He is ruling for 8 years by the grace of GOD!

No offense but Tinubu looks like a living dead! See his face like someone they have embalmed!

Back to sender in JESUS name!

Back to sender in JESUS name!

[quote author=slawomir post=123373853][/quote]You are the one that is unaware of your environment.

Employers should always check their spam box.

Is it just my inbox or gmail and Yahoo mail are no longer dropping messages?

Even spam box seems to be affected.

No one seems to be receiving my emails and no one seems to be sending me mails?

The few legit messages from acquaintances and companies I got have all dropped in spam box.

Why would valid mails drop in spam box?

Social media ban will be a counter productive measure not just on the people but on the government too.

When people spread lies, it becomes evident as per, it can no longer be hidden once it goes viral on social media.

That way, the government can monitor the rumours, debunk the lies as well as use that as an opportunity to educate the populace.

But with a social media ban,
lies and rumours will still spread on social media because people will resort to VPN as well as WhatsApp, trust me at that point, before the news gets to the ears of the government, it might be too late.

Take for instance, when there was a rumor against Abike Dabiri that she purposely left Igbos behind in Sudan, it went viral on Twitter and spread to her ears and she was able to debunk it.
Without that social media, the rumor will spread and the polity may just heat up gradually without the government having an inkling.

With social media ban, rumors will spread from WhatsApp status to WhatsApp status till its probably too late in case of a mass action.

If the people decide to plan an anti govt protest, trust me, social media will help you monitor that news as a government official.

The masses can plan a protest against the govt without them knowing simply because the very tool GOD gave them, the govt, to monitor news have been banned by them.

Banning social media is an anti-people policy. It is tyrannical, don't do it.
If Jonathan could handle it, no other person really has an excuse. Jonathan had it really bad with social media insults. Tinubu's having it worse but trust me there are more productive ways to handle issues like this; see it as an opportunity to educate and reorient(tate?) the people.

GOD grants freedom of speech to the righteous and the evil, no one is wiser than GOD.

We reject that you want to force people to give up their identities just to use your platform in JESUS name.
Stronger and better platforms shall arise.

We might as well just face it. The whole thing is a shame and it just always be an avenue to steal in the name of subsidy. A good example is the $800m dollars the FG is taking from the world bank which it intendseto disburse to Nigerians in the name of cushioning thetge effect of of subsidy removal. How do you determine who's eligible and who's not? At thebend of the day, there's no beneficiarie and they'll yet again, take up more loans in the name of helping the citizens.

Another good example is the free subsidy money would now be available to Politicians

Like someone already mentioned, the subsidy removal need not happen once, it can be staggered.

tunwumi:
If I were him, I will remove it the very first day. The is no emotional explanation that can justify burrowing to pay subsidy.

He will do himself alot of de- service if he tarry on its removal.

Thank GOD you are not him o
