okgerald: Hummm. My head of operations in the bank was always talking down on travelling abroad. She is always saying things like ' she can only travel to enjoy herself, cannot live in America or abroad...etc'
She has never travelled before Mind you. An opportunity presented itself and she travelled. By the crime she came back story has changed o. Now she is looking for ways to migrate to canada. Though she went to USA for a function. I am now wondering what made her change her mind. Even though she is earning good pay in a Bank. When she sees things are totally different ...LOL 2 Likes |
Career / Re: Joining The US Army by Gab27: 11:12pm On Oct 05, 2016 |
19naia:
You have to be in USA to join. It is not diplomatically polite to recruit people from within the sovreignty of a foriegn country. Its up there with international espionage actions. You have to first be in USA and then you can apply to join. To be a sniper, you have to join the Infantry which have branches in the Army and Marines. Army is a broader department to serve in, while Marines will expose you to Naval operations life where the Army is not involved. Infantry are the ground fighting forces and they would also make up the special forces units that also use snipers. You have to join as regular infantry and work your way up to sniper school. A sepcial enlistment contract to sniper school is possible, but you will have to prove yourself first in basic training and advanced infantry training before being accepted to sniper school. I never heard of a new infantry graduate being accepted to sniper school because there is no shortage of older and more experienced infantry soldiers looking for the rare slot to be a sniper. Infantry has many specialty schools such as sniper school, helicopter rope decent school(air assault), airborne parachute school, pathfinder school, mechanized light tank school, long range fire such as mortar and special light missile systems like the ones fired from the shoulder position. If you enlist as a non commissioned soldier, you will have a better chance at becoming a sniper. If you have university education, you may be able to enlist at a higher rank and paygrade or be accepted to commisioned officer candidate school. A commisioned officer may command over snipers but it is rare to see a commisioned officer being the actual sniper in field of combat. Infantry value university education and prefer commisioned officers who started their infantry career as enlisted soldiers with experience in both tiers of service. University education your best asset toward getting visa to go to USA and is also your best asset towards getting rewarded in military service in USA. Many Nigeria university credits may not be accepted in USA but the military will pay for you to take USA university courses while you are in service. So you can actually earn a USA bachelors or Masters or PhD while in the USA military and they will pay for it but you have to also be sure to contract your service with an education bonus so as to get maximum education benefit frm the military. Military contracts are normally signed with included bonuses such as cash sums after a period of years of service, or education fund package. They are usually above $20k per service and the combat role units during war time can be contracts with much higher bonuses. If you go to combat, you will get additional pay added to basic salary and that will be combat pay, danger pay per assignment, TDY and possibly other things these days in addition to tax exemption during combat.
Above all, you have to be in USA first, even as a tourist or student, and then you can change your status of stay in the country via military contract. They cannot accept you from within Nigeria as a Nigerian with no solid ties to USA. You can always try your luck and apply for visa in Nigeria and state your reason as intent to serve in the USA military. The worst that can happen is they deny you and give you a reason, and you waste $161.oo, and then you can always apply again in the future. kindly send me your emai id. |

cozybunch: Dallas is a big metropolitan area, question u will ask ur self is do u want to stay in dallas county or not. If dallas county you maybe looking at irving that has mixture of Hispanics, blacks such as african (nigerians) and white. U should concentrate on northern part of the county. Southern part may be cheaper but you don't want to mess with crime like you mentioned.
You may also check denton county, cities like Lewisville is nice and other nice cities. I leave in denton county, is quite and nice. Remember this is texas, you must have a car for commute.
An average rate for a 1 bedroom apartment is between $625 and up while you can get a much cheaper rate in the south side.
Good luck Please send me your email id.. I wanna ask you something. |

boyestic: Texas is a good place to live,i live in dallas and i dont have a single reagret about it,i moved from chicago and crime rate is very low. Good day Good people of Nairaland, Please, I want you to advise me on the next line of action.. Well, I have a former colleague friend who is now an America citizen in florida ..

Also, in terms of jobs, cheaper, low taxes etc. I also heard that many Nigerian reside there mostly.. But I don't have anyone there that can be of help. According to your experience ...
