og op, you see that your no 3 ? just cancel am. Someone who failed woefully in a job interview will get the job before the most qualified. yes , people are still fortunate to get employed based on qualification (mostly expatriate run industries which. are few in Nigeria) But you see Government work , indeginious owned or even managed organizations, 90% of them na connection. The only way to see light at the end of this toilet (country), is to develope skills and get your own business running |

Lack of connection is the only reason why you don't have a job. If you lack connection, I'll advise you to stop looking for a job. Simply create one and employ others. |

Number 3 is true, Applied for an entry level position that required ND and 1year + work experience. I applied with MSc and 3 years + experience. Needless to say, i never got the offer Apparently you can be overqualified for a job kayodesblog: |

1, bad economy- no one is hiring. There are no vacancies, even Buhari said so. 2. Tribalism- even if u are good and qualified, guess what , na who know person go get d job. 3. Bad infrastructure- no light no electricity which are job killers jobs in Nigeria to survive are brick layers, washing man, car drivers, business owner, forex dealers ,IT or selling and trading, ubering, DJ, nursing. Swallow your pride and just hustle. There is dignity in labor 1 Like |

Greediness: we have thousands of employed citizen in different organisation competing with an unemployed person for new vacancies...how can you be managing somewhere with 60-70k income and you are dragging job with someone that borrow money to attend an interview... I have always talked about this |
Re: 4 Reasons Why You Are Unemployed Despite Your Constant Application Trials by BigDawsNet: 8:26am On Jul 18, 2021 |
Mypeople2: Atleast you have something What about someone that cannot afford 500na to attend interview or someone that cannot even eat 2 square meal a day... graduate for that matter |
Re: 4 Reasons Why You Are Unemployed Despite Your Constant Application Trials by BigDawsNet: 8:35am On Jul 18, 2021 |
EMIOMOADEOYE: Definitely not...it's more of a junk food money here... I'm not saying you have to relax because you earn 60k....I'm just saying that's is the reason most unemployed find it difficult to secure a job... We have couple of story here where a person working in bank or company wants people opinions about quitting his or her job because he was selected for states or federal job... Meaning even people with stable jobs are still applying... Just like the past immigration recruitment...we have working class with good earning still trying to apply |

In black and white: 1. There are fewer jobs 2. There are multitude of applicants for the few available jobs. 3. You need a direct connection because of Number 1&2. |

Sonnobax15: You said it all. Without connection you are going nowhere. If you don't have connection be ready to spend money. Imagine asking a graduate to bring 250k to get a government job? |

Lack of skills/experience is one of the obvious reasons. Let’s not shy from the truth. One of the major reasons why you’re rejected is because you don’t possess the requisite skills and experience required for the role. No employer wants to take the risk of hiring and paying someone who has less skills than required. It’s good to graduate with nice results. It is another thing to possess the in demand market skills. How much have you improved on your skills from the first time you applied? |
Re: 4 Reasons Why You Are Unemployed Despite Your Constant Application Trials by Angelawhite(m): 2:05pm On Jul 18, 2021 |
DavidKajo94: It’s not greed. It’s smartness. This goes to show how you blame your woes on others. Have you heard of career growth? You want someone who earns 60k to earn 60k forever ? If you see a 200k job offer, would you ignore it because of others that are yet to find a job ? |

Comedian2019: Stop misleading people. If you continue using connection as an excuse for not getting a job, you might never get one. Your argument might hold true for government jobs, but government is not the only employer of labor. Most private companies don’t care about your tribe or connection. They weight competence over connection because at the end of the day, competence determines the success of a business and by extension, its ability to pay salaries. The question is, do you possess what is required for the position? Are you the best amongst other several applicants? How have you differentiated yourself from thousands of your peers? |
Re: 4 Reasons Why You Are Unemployed Despite Your Constant Application Trials by Comedian2019: 2:30pm On Jul 18, 2021 |
Angelawhite:I still maintain that you only need the right connection if you want to work for another person. Why should a competent person be looking for a job? Create a job if you're so competent. Is it a crime to be an employer? |
Re: 4 Reasons Why You Are Unemployed Despite Your Constant Application Trials by Angelawhite(m): 4:16pm On Jul 18, 2021 |
Comedian2019: Why do doctors work in hospitals if they are competent. Why can’t they own their own hospitals? If every competent person opened their businesses, who would they hire ? Incompetent people? You see why your argument does not hold water. With your mentality, it will be difficult to convince you that you can get a job without connection. It is a lazy way of approaching a problem... blaming the government and everyone else other than yourself. I didn’t want to mention it, but maybe it’ll tweak your ideology, I run 2 full time jobs as a Software Engineer- both jobs are remote and I only go to the office if I want to. I graduated with a 2:2 but I have what they want which is competence and not connection and not even my degree but pure skills and proven competence. Even if I want to run my own business, it will come after a well thought out decision and conviction The question is how long will you continue blaming connections ? |
