Prec1ous:
How will you have first class and still be looking for job.

The knowledge from the First Class is meant to be utilized and exploited.

So are you telling me now that you will work as a..
Sales manager or rep
Customer care agent
Office attendant.

You obviously did not deserve that class, LA cram LA pour.

Go and do graduate assistant!

Or now that you have the advantage, leave this country on scholarships. Check here...

Asour:
I am definitely not a professional in offering advice as to what direction one may pursue but you do strike me as a truly excellent fellow.

I'll say these:

Start making unsolicited applications to companies you admire and/or consider a fit for your background/skills. Most of these companies have career portals on their websites where you can create a profile and apply for available roles or even make unsolicited applications.

Do you see yourself as a generalist or you ultimately want to be a subject matter expert? if you opt for the latter DO NOT ! chase any/every proposed IT skill out there because you'll end up being mediocre at it/them and maybe disinterested/dissatisfied pushing you to yet another skill continuing this focus-less circle.

Find a passion project. This is a project/subject/field/topic within or outside the realm of your academic background (Maybe an IT skill, I know, I remember what I said above) of which you are committed to build expert-level capacity in irrespective of whether you have a job or not. Something you will always be proud of and own/nurture and grow whether life's rosy or tough. Essentially something you'll always be committed to "just like you where committed to your CGPA in school".
You'll find that sooner than latter you'll be an expert at this thing besides what ever else you have going for you in life (usually work).

As a side, you may consider teaching briefly in schools on consultancy basis (I.e arrange with the principal/head to pay you less than he/she would normally want to in exchange for not tying you down through the day [8am-2pm], which frees you up for other engagements ) while waiting for a more preferable job.
You may also go it alone as I once tried by setting up extramural lessons instead of the above teaching arrangement.

Read a lot. You obviously know this, perhaps more than myself. As Dylan soon says it "Read not just for pleasure/knowledge but to change your behaviour". you could join quota too. I've found it really enriching.

That's all ,except ... I find your field really lucrative (most don't get this) but FMCGs, CPGs ,Chemicals and food/beverages industry is, in my opinion,one of the most lucrative and easy-to-enter industries to do business in (Read: Don't rule out starting a firm yourself too, not just for the sake of being your own boss but because,quite frankly, you could brilliantly execute it better than most).

Congratulations on account of both your UD. result and in advance of your NYSC POP. I am certain you'll do just fine - even without all the advice on this page - if you keep being NOT complacent(You definitely know this too already).

Regards.

Anyone who thinks his paper degree is gonna get him a mouth-watering job here in Nigeria needs a brain resetting slap asap. If at all you'd get a job, you are merely joining the rank of our dear modern slaves who live from hand to mouth. I really Thank God for my life cause I discovered early that there's no job out there waiting for me. That mindset made me to grab the bull by the horn and today, i'm independent even as an undergraduate. Instead of waiting for my parents to send in cash, i'm actually the one sending to them and it has accord me the respect I deserve.

If you're brilliant and skilled, but not making money in this internet age, then something is wrong with you. The internet has made everything simple, you just have to be open to learn. You don't need a laptop before you can make money online, all you need is the HOW TO.

Sadly, we prefer to engage in tribal wars while se.un keep making money from you guys...

Let's wake up!

THANKS.

I appreciate guys on this thread, your mature responses, except for few guys, can make a heart merry. My friend, First class full everywhere, I was one of those folks that was of the view- first class will get everything until recently, my eyes were opened , My CGPA is close to 5.0 and I have been turned down many times;Scholarships, Job Opportunities! One thing is sure, as a first class guy, check inward, there is a peculiarity, explore; Everywhere I go, I create avenue for income for myself, my Ideas and ability are highly sought for and I hardly lack even though I am still serving like you! Keep trying, God will open a way for you but do not forget to check inward, your strength may make you an entrepreneur, you idea can make a difference. It's in you, Let it out
Cheers
