JimloveTM: It is very frustrating nowadays in Nigeria applying for jobs. The issue has gone beyond the availability of jobs to having the necessary JOB EXPERIENCE and work qualification before you are even considered for an aptitude test. Just this year alone, I have seen more than 30 high profile vacancy advert with work experience requirement of at least 2 or 3 years. What does this mean for the young graduate with little or no work experience? In this article, I will attempt to show you how you can land a job of your choice by building a 3 years job experience in one year.

The next time you see a job requiring 3 or more years of work experience, and you are a fresh graduate, do not let it pass, Apply.
Here is how the Magic works:

1. Use Mathematics Law in your favour: In mathematics, the concept of frequency and time are related, and you can buy time by an increase in frequency. Let me break this down. The number of times you do a particular task (frequency) is the same as the duration of time you have done that task. So if company is advertising for a job that requires 3 years job experience in lets say Software design, a person who have done this just 10 times in 3 years can boldly apply. On the other hand you may have done this 30 times in a year. Your job experience is worth more than that of the other man. Using the concept of frequency and time, you are more qualified, and it is worth 3 years too.

2. Consider Volunteer Jobs: Once you have identified a sector that you may like to work in, you may consider taking up a volunteer job at a smaller or average firm in that sector immediately you graduate from school. Don't worry about the pay here. Your aim should be to build your job experience and your social profile. By the time you have gone to the youth service program (NYSC) and back, you should have gotten nothing less than a 2 year experience.

3. Don't forget prior experience: Now when applying for jobs seeking 3 years experience or more, do not forget to add prior experiences no matter how small they may have been. You were in the team that organized a mega program while in school, add it, you have worked in a restaurant to support your education, add it, you were in a position of leadership in a campus or student group in school, add it up. They will form more than a 3 years experience.

Nice one and quite encouraging. But do you know that there are some cases where it will be clearly stated


-3 YEARS OF POST SERVICE EXPERIENCE.

-3 YEARS OF RELEVANT EXPERIENCE.

-3 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN THE FOLLOWING ROLES (Listing what they expect you to have known)

With all these above specifications, your 2nd and 3rd points may be hard to use.

For example, I'm currently working in the financial sector of the economy, if I want to work with another company in this same sector, you may be seeing specification of duties, that if you have not performed all of these functions before, you are not qualify.



I just pray God make a way for our unemployed youths soon.

Krucifax:
The issue of work experience is present in every country in the world. However there is a way round this. As a fresh graduate seeking work you can offer to do unpaid internships with a company no matter how big or small. Also remember on the C.V having 6 months experience at a company does not mean you had to be there Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. Your internship could be for a day or two in a week and it may be for half of the the day.You will then tailor your c.v to suit.

It's understandable that companies don't want novices as this slows down productivity and can be expensive if they decide to offer training. These are costs many businesses are not willing to incur. However a smart person who understands this can work it to their advantage.

When I graduated with my law degree here in London years ago I was feeling impressed with myself but by the time I had spent months getting rejected for everything from middle ranking to office administrator roles, I realised I had to go back to the drawing board as far as experience was concerned. And to God be the glory I am where I am today because of it. Good luck to you all.
Krucifax thank you very much Sir, for this your wise information, I will yield to it, and I believe that it will be helpful to me.
