abuhusna1:weak argument, haven't you heard of demand and supply ? If the amount of so called 'graduates' heavily outstrips the available vacancies in the economy this is the resultant effect. |

I want to believe those asking him not to accept the offer here will not call him lazy youth if he comes online tomorrow to ask for financial help after been starved and pasting his account number. That op a bird in hand is worth a million in the bush. After that, at least no matter how small you can keep body and soul together with 35k. Most of this folks telling you not to accept it will be the first to yab you and tell you about having two hands and not able to work if you come here tomorrow to seek some financial favour. Unless u HV or expecting a better offer, take that first |

If you can see this In all honesty, I think you should take the job. This will give you the experience needed for your next job. Many of us started even smaller than this, like my first job was 8k but we are not there anymore. You are to keep pushing even while on this job, be patient and you'd smile at last. |

Ghostty: Average Chinese companies have no joy and that why I tell people support their phones like huawei they don’t have a clue what they are doing. Even when they pay u abit better they will use u and drain u however in engineering u may learn a few things if ur smart to handle them. I will suggest u take the job for experience sake, see how it goes and the pressure level and experience level. If Ure learning a lot from it then stick in there cos the experience will count for u in ur next job. If Ure benefiting neither money, knowledge or contacts form the place pls tell them to fvck off. Period! |

Dear brother, what am about to tell you is from experience, don't take the job because if you do, you will be so strained that you will end up spending the little money you save on hospital bills when you fall sick, secondly... The job gives you no time to go out and search for better options. Again you going to hate yourself everyday on the job because it takes practically everything away from you, especially if you are the social type, desperation and idleness is what's making you think about picking the job... I know, but you sure deserve better. If you must start from somewhere,it should be where you fit in. Thats practical slavery bro. McAausim: 2 Likes |

As bad as it sounds, a bird in hand is worth 2 in the bush. If it's something you can get experience from, take it and get the experience, then scram. Nigeria is a sad place to be born and grow up. We don't even have labour laws that protect workers, that's why Nigerian workers are exploited at every turn. I don't even know who to blame. 1 Like |

Well to me I'd say you should accept the offer, while you keep on searching for a better opportunity. |
Re: Accept This Job Offer Or Continue Job Hunting??? by ahidsufi: 6:50pm On Oct 02, 2019 |
Actually the working time and pay is not good at all but if you don't have anything to earn you money accept it but have it on back of your mind you are not going to stay for long |

That is pure slavery but then again, it's not really a choice between two strong options because you can reject and keep job hunting or you can accept and keep job hunting. You gain and loose some and only you can understand what choice is to be made here. I'm in a similar predicament where I have an automatic employment but I have no idea when that would become a reality. I can either pick up a similar offer like yours except mine is 1 day on 1 day off (24 hours) for 25k. So I choose this and keep job hunting while waiting for my employment to be active or stay put and keep job hunting while still waiting. That is a choice I only, can make. Same with you. Sorry guy |

Re: Accept This Job Offer Or Continue Job Hunting??? by Stefaniebo(f): 7:33pm On Oct 02, 2019 |
my dear dont accept the job, your friends and family might mock you but you know your worth. you might even end up doing a business that you will earn much more than their meagre salary. I was in the same position like you. i was offered a job of 35k last year somehow I did not accept so I started selling stuff on jumia, little by little I was seeing small small change but I continued applying for jobs. I even did an interview 4 times in one particular company. to cut the story short. I am employed with a better job and better salary plus my side online business. so it might take long but you will surely get a better one. just have a vision and know your worth. |
