Man Slams Covenant University Over Job Interview Invitation by nonny400(m): 9:39am On Nov 10, 2017 |
A Nigerian man on Facebook has talked about the values missing in the curriculum of Nigerian employers, how to value human being. He did this in a post in which he called out convenant university for being a serial offender. Read what he wrote: A tale of Two Worlds... Western Institution (email): Mr. Samuel, we will like to have a 15 minute interview with you on Skype. Can you give us a date and time between 1st and 6th of November that will be okay for you? Me (email): I am happy with 10 am of Saturday 5th November. Western Institution: That's great then, look forward to speaking to you. *** Nigerian University (SMS sent around 6 pm Sunday): You're invited for an interview at Covenant slated for 8.30 am on Tuesday morning. Me (phone call): Hello, I just got your message for an interview. I live in Benue, I am supposed to start preparing to be in Lagos tomorrow for an interview the next morning? Nigerian University (indignantly): Oga is job we're talking about o. Me: Okay, your notice is too short, I can't make it. Friends: Oboy just do am like that, even if na night bus, just go. Me: Nah. I am not that desperate. I want to work with people who value people. This is a major turn off. They don't even care that I need to prepare for the interview. They don't care I need to meet financial obligations as well as other things to be in Lagos. They don't care if I even made an appointment for Monday before. *** See the difference between a society that values you and one that treats you like trash? I am supposed to come to your university to add value...you're not doing me a favor because you will be paying me 120k. And this is what happens when a society defines its values primarily around money - dignity is sacrificed. PS: Covenant did this shit of a two day notice twice. I bounced the interview twice. They are a university, an institution that people are trained at, not a band of unorganized bus drivers. A country of "Do it like that, because time is going." https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=2253180758040650&id=100000462444857 62 Likes 5 Shares

Well the man looking for a job sounded highly unproffesional. Imagine saying something like this to a potential interviewer " and I am supposed to start preparing to come for interview tomorrow?" Grow up man, you are not talking to your friends or relatives. something in the line of " I just got the invite and I am currently not in town, can I reschedule?" Their answer will be a simple yes or no abi? Abeg how did you apply sef because people are looking for work ehen 72 Likes 2 Shares |

Useless post. Some people should know that it is not always you get redress through social media. I'd just advise him not to allow Bishop Oyedepo slap out the spirit of witchcraft through his face. 14 Likes 3 Shares

I remember my first interview at Zenith bank. The HR manager and an AGM wanted to intimidate me, telling me they only had vacancy for tellers (with a salary of 70k). 5minutes into the interview, their intercom buzzed and they were told my car was blocking the third interviewer (a GM). I was excused to go and repark and I could see the change in attitude when I got back. Apparently, I brought the same car as their GM and then the table turned. I returned and placed my LG chocolate phone on the table (their fada...they were trying to BUGA me with one cheap Nokia before). In summary, the GM 'upped' my offer and I was offered a Customer Executive role even though I resigned the first day I resumed ! 168 Likes 5 Shares |

My worst experience was traveling from PH to Kaduna for NAMA interview that they had already penciled those they would absorbed. I remember this with pains and regret everyday. To this day if you will not interview me in PH or by call forget about it. Last time I was applying for DPR's openings where they asked for choice of centre I said Port Harcourt. They mentioned second choice I had to click Port Harcourt again. I had no intention of traveling out of Port Harcourt for any 'gadem' interview. Eventually I was not shortlisted. I have no regret over it. Value yourself your employer will reciprocate that. 24 Likes 2 Shares |

The guy is right because he has a job at hand. A person in dire need of a job would have reacted differently. 14 Likes 3 Shares |

The Potential Employer did what's 'wrong'. How can you be giving such notice within a short time? The guy acted too harsh too. And I am supposed to start preparing to come for interview tomorrow? 3 Likes 1 Share |
