SocialJustice: I find it disturbing that she was judged by her physical appearance. Nothing about her intellectual ability. Naija Sha. The employer was just intimidated 1 Like |

SocialJustice: LOL. This is silly. I have managed a couple of rich kids, and to be frank, they were the most dilligent, and dedicated Staff ever. Because they come from priviledged back-grounds, a number of them already put themselves under pressure to measure up to their parents achievements plus the exposure they have gotten from the home-front means you get more than just someone to do slightly administrative stuff / simple tasks for you - for instance, someone whose father regularly has meetings with investors, would know a thing or two about that, and they have unfiltered access to great mentors - their parents, and their network of friends. Oh, less I forget, even you the boss can tap into taking advantage of their parents network if you play your cards right. The possible downside is that they cant be threatened cos their lives do not end on your job, but then again, why should you have to threaten people's livelihoods to get the results you need - shouldnt you rather resort to positive motivation and coaching? 2 Likes |

larryking540: If not for the low self esteem of the manager, how is wearing an apple watch and having an iphone 'flashy'? Not rolex ooo. |

ASPIREX: Nahh. I also do HR; there was no sense behind that decision. A number of respected Asset Management / PE firms in Nigeria are havens of the exact sort of candidate described, and trust me, they dont come more target-oriented than PE boys. IF you doubt me, spend an afternoon looking through the profiles of young people in top firms. |

larryking540: Wearing an apple watch and having an iPhone is blinging up - seriously? Has it also occurred to you that the reason she has a Lexus picking her up is cos she doesn't own a car, hence her parents volunterred their's? I can tell you for a fact, the recruiter has a complex; I work in the HR space too, and have seen quite a number of folks that think like that. |

Bagehot:You got lucky, definitely not from my area. All they want to do is eat, sleep, party and do drugs. It's not even a location matter. How many kids follow their parents to the boardroom? I get your point though and it makes no sense to threaten. I give you a job and hand you milestones broken into SMART goals. You either deliver or go. No threats. My businesses are still too small to carry deadweight. No business should actually. |
