Airforce1:
more like a diary.


why do Nigerian women think its the responsibility of men to take care of all their financial needs at all times?

you give them money all the time and when you say no to her demand for a day it becomes a problem.

I don't think you read the post before dropping a comment. She clearly has been managing herself and she just said he asked her money. Sometimes read. It's not cool to be Dumb.

I thank God for my lovely parents and siblings.
I thank God for seeing me through my masters phase of my life.
I thank God for the new phase of my life: the job-hunting phase.
I thank God for my new job.

LMAO!!!!!!!!!

It is now 2016. Is it too late to send my CV to you to review?

Hey!

I have the same issue, and it is not caused by poor hygiene or whatever these folks said. It is a condition called 'Hidradenitis Suppurativa'. You can google it. All you have to do is visit a clinic when they re-appear because they can give you antibiotics and lance the boil in a clean way when it is about to pop.

PS: Don't buy antibiotics on your own without seeing a doctor and when you take antibiotic, try to finish the whole dosage.

I know how painful it is. You will be fine

This is why I know 2019 elections will be bloody....

Nigeria has been knocked out of her position as the largest economy in Africa in Dollar terms by South Africa. This comes two years after Nigeria took the position as the biggest economy in the African continent from South Africa.

Based on gross domestic product at the end of 2015 published by the International Monetary Fund, the size of South Africa’s economy is $301 billion at the rand’s current exchange rate, while Nigeria’s GDP is $296 billion.

This was attributed to the appreciation of the Rand, South Africa’s currency, and the devaluation of the Nigerian Naira following the introduction of a flexible foreign exchange regime.

The Rand gained more than 16% against the dollar since the start of 2016, and Nigeria’s Naira lost more than a third of its value after the central bank removed a currency peg in June.

According to Bloomberg:

Both nations face the risk of a recession after contracting in the first quarter of the year. The Nigerian economy shrank by 0.4 percent in the three months through March from a year earlier amid low oil prices and output and shortage of foreign currency. That curbed imports, including fuel. In South Africa, GDP contracted by 0.2 percent from a year earlier as farming and mining output declined.

‘More than the growth outlook, in the short term the ranking of these economies, is likely to be determined by exchange rate movements,’ Alan Cameron, an economist at Exotix Partners LLP, said in e-mailed responses to questions on August 2. Although Nigeria is unlikely to be unseated as Africa’s largest economy in the long run, “the momentum that took it there in the first place is now long gone,” Alan added.

Hey, Just my 2 cents.
- Change the heading of the CV from your 'curriculum vitae' to your name. It is quite outdated writing that
- You wasted the first page on mostly your bio. Try to reduce the spacing and include your education and qualification on that page.

When they are done with the EU migrants, we are next. The Asians and Africans. That is what it is eventually coming to.

lindabon:
Lol. No. Actually, they are disgruntled with migrants coming to UK from other European countries. For once, we are not the ones they are embittered about. We sat this one out on a comfy sofa, with popcorn and a can of coke, while we watched them tear each other apart, literally. How about that for a change. Hehe

They are called chemtrails. Used by the govt not necessary ours to contaminate the air purposely. I am not suprised it has gotten to Nigeria.

It is a normal feature in UK.

TrollTrap:
Ok I've been meaning to ask.....how can someone send money from Nigeria to the UK?

Western Union or Form A

But it is okay to sign a contract before taking a job, right?

Stop misleading people.

Pls don't come

Please, Fashola's name should not be called when we are talking about patriots.

Hey Nairalanders,

As a Nigerian citizen, what countries can we work in without a work visa or permit?

Especially African countries.

He does not love you. Since, you have noticed this, it is better you opt out of the relationship.
What happens when you give birth and add some weight.
He will hate you.
Honey, if you are not married and he is already complaining this much, think about what will happen you eventually wed.
Marriage is a lifetime covenant, remember?
Love yourself!

May their soul rest in peace. Amen.

He was perfect, had a great job and all of that. But he smoked a lot and prioritized his job over me. So, I ditched him.

I was about taking this post seriously until I saw the quaran recitations. Please, have several seats.. Islam is bondage not religion.

Governor Nyesom Wike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AltarBoy1:
Pardon my typo and formats, na small phone I dey use.

I have been contemplating whether to create this thread or not, cos my experience was kinda embarrassing for me. But lo and behold, I was shortlisted for the next stage. So I decided to share this just so that others will pick a point or two from it (thats if there is any).
I made it to the interview stage after two tests. So as usual, I got myself prepared for the interview, researched about the company, got answers to some possible interview questions.
Fast forward to the venue of the interview, I met some other candidates at the gate. Some were with their jotters, rehearsing their answers while others are just whining away time. So I just walk up to one girl that was standing alone to chat up with her before the interview start.

Few minute later, they called in the first person. After about 20 min, they called in the second person. Then next they called me in
The panel was made up of 3 people, a lady with two other men. From what I later gathered, the lady is the zonal MD and the two men were from the HR department.
After sitting down, they requested for my documents and photocopies, which I presented to them. They were all quiet, scanning through my documents until the lady spoke up.
Lady: Can you give us one good reason why you graduated with 2.2
Me: *Silent for a while* Plz repeat the question.
Lady: *Repeats*
Me: Well, there is no excuse for failure in life. If I have to give any excuse, it should be why I made 2.1 or first class against all odds and not why I made 2.2. So I dont think I have any reason to give, even if there is, I wouldnt say it.
Lady: *Silent while looking at me*
Man1: You just said 2.2 is failure, can you tell us why you used that word failure.
Me:*see as I put myself for wahala* Well, technically speaking, I called it failure cos currently in the labor market, 90% of all job vacancy requires 2.1 and above. Its only few that accept 2.2. And giving the population of the unemployed graduates, having a 2.2 is really a disadvantage. Thats why I used the word failure.
Man2: What do you mean by technically?
Me: Conditionally or under a certain condition.
Lady: Now, does it mean that you are technically a failure
Me:*I don F-up with this word wey I use* Technically am not,*can see the smile/laff on their face* If I am, I wont be sitting right in front of you considering the two aptitude tests that one have to scale before been here.
Lady: Maybe luck was on your side.
Me: Luck cant just choose only me among all the 100s of candidates that attended the tests.
Lady: Yes it can
Me: *Silent**in my mind, I was like, e b like say na luck carry you reach this position wey you dey now.*
Man2: Now, tell us why we should hire you?
Me: *smiled**didnt know that the smile was so obvious. So as I was about answering the question, the lady cuts in*
Lady: Why are you smiling?
Me: Nothing ma.
Lady: It cant be nothing, tell us why you are smiling.
Me: *Feeling Scared* Nothing ma, maybe its cos I have a smiling face.
Lady: How can you have a smiling face when you have been boning since you came in here. Even your passport says it all.
Me: *feeling more scared* with due respect ma, its nothing.
Man1: If you dont tell us, I think you should just go so we can call in the next candidate.
Me: *confused and scared, I just decided to say anything* I am smiling because I was expecting that particular question. *decide to add salt and pepper* in fact, we have been rehearsing the answers to this question and some other possible questions outside before I was called in.
Man1: So you already crammed the answers.
Me: Not really.
Man2: Then what/how
Me: Well, I have come up with some possible answer that suits my personality
Man2: And you think that answer is good enough.
Me: *By now, am already confused, so I was just saying anything that comes to my mind* Well, at least its good enough to impress the HR.
Lady: Is that what you think
Me: *Silent*
Man1: Ok, Now answer the question
Me: Well, Let me just say it the way it is in my mind. You should hire me because am not going to fail.
Man2: What do you mean by you are not going to fail.
Me: I have been unemployed for a long time, so if given the opportunity, I will anything that I can to sure that I dont go back to my unemployed status.
*All silent*
Me: things within the banks policy and interest
Lady: Is that the answer you came up with.
Me: No. I dont want to use it again cos its just to speak English and doesnt tell the real me since is something I picked over the net and modified.
Man2: Can we hear it.
Lady: No, just leave him *turning to me* You read chemical engineering, and you want to work in a bank. Are you not trying to go off your career?
Me: Well, even though I have a background in engineering, I do not have a career yet until I gain experience in a particular field, from there I can build my career.
Lady: Do you think you can survive in the bank as an engr.
Me: Engrs are trained to be flexible and adaptive. I believe I can and will succeed in the banking sector. If Mr. XXXX (the current CEO of the bank) and Mrs. YYYYY (one of their senior executive) can succeed, I see no reason why I cant.
Man2: Why are you comparing yourself with them?
Me: Cos they both read a course that has nothing to do with banking.
Lady: Name them.
Me: Electrical Engineering and Microbiology
Man2: So you have the faith that you can do it.
Me: Yes. Plus the fact that I always have luck *grin*.
They just burst out laughing.
Man1: Tell us any three recent happenings in Nigeria or policies by the FG that is affecting the banking industry
Me: TSA, Fight against corruption and drop in oil price.
Lady: Explain them.
Me: *did the little explanation that I can* Summary is that money is leaving the bank
Lady: Go, personnel will get back to you
Naso I begin dey go come dey think say I don f-up Till just last week, I got a text that that I was successful, that they will get back to be for the next stage.

Typical Nigerian mentality. Stop feeling entitled to someone's wealth.

Are you guys really going to act like you dont know Tinubu and Amaechi are corrupt Lets forget political affinity. Before Buhari came into power, we always knew at least Tinubu was corrupt. So, seeing that fellow Nigerians are turning a blind eye to this, there is no future for this generation...
