Saving allawee was very hard for me as I fully depended on it, no other source of income....was even paying for my accomodation and the rest from there. The little I saved, I channelled them in crypto and now bitcoin is going up and down...lol
Also served in state that was very far from my state of origin....70% of the allawee always finishes on travelling. You finished alawee just like that? |

Hey bro, some Jobs in Lagos are really not worth it as transport and feeding take it all.
What I'm certain you can do and you'd not regret it is get into Tech.....it's the most rewarding thing right now Pick up web dev (with node and react)...now that you are still with your parent. If it's hard to do....enrol at Alt-school or decagon or semicolon........ Sacrifice 6months to learning and I can bet you the job offers you'd get afterwards will be massive.....both 9ja and foreign roles.
Wish you luck friend 2 Likes |

Milesbillions: I just concluded my service year on February 2022....barely a month ago and I'm still job hunting, although I have submitted so many applications but the job invites that are coming through are from lagos.
I'm currently in the east. Don't have anybody to stay with in Lagos for now. Now, I'm somebody that like to get a work in career or field that does not allign with my course of study, remember...I studied Animal and Environmental Biology and I came out with a good 2:1. In terms of job opportunities in Nigeria in respect to what I studied, it is very limited and chances of me getting in a job is very slim considering Nigeria factors as I don't have any connection.
A friend adviced me to go for my masters abroad and I told him, there is no money to do the initial processes although I believe in myself that I can get full funding if I apply but the money to write the necessary exams is not around, reason I'm trying my best to get a work of any kind that doesn't necessarily require what I did in school. So many people are doing it and if I ask them, they will say, they got it through graduate trainees and entry level roles in organizations and firms
I'm somebody that likes working in logistics company and as a customer representative but the major hindrance I'm having right now, is not having the experiences that will make me to work in those fields. Some, if not all of the job offers I always come across require for 1-3 years experience which I Don't have.
So guys, what's the best way to get through this? Just one month out of service and I'm already feeling bored at home doing nothing apart from helping my parents in the farm works and reading a basic course on UI/UX designing?
Please any advice of any kind is duely welcomed. Insults are welcomed too. I out here to learn because, nobody knows it all.

Karleb: Get a support system. Move to major city in your state, preferably, come to Lagos or at least Abuja or port Harcourt. If you have money or connection, use it to get a job.
Lastly, you will suffer. Trust me. Chief Can you please Explain that money or connection in the abuja case |

gly2ken: My brother congrats for making 2:1, but that does not really guarantee success in life. With the way you spoke you don't have connection but remember you have God by your side. Open your mind to opportunities in other areas other than your course of study. I know of a fellow that had 2:1 in geology from a university whose geology department is renowned in the petroleum industry. But guess what after years of looking for job, the guy is making a live as a chartered accountant practicing tax and he is doing well. The city or town where you start from also matters. My Advice: Among other efforts look for opportunities in banking, audit and consulting. Remember the pay might not be big, but I sure you it's a good place to start. Remember teaching in a private school will tie you down and prevent you from looking for better opportunities. May God bless your hustle. Hello Chief Sorry for cutting in How did a graduate of geology become an account? I love to learn from you sir |

One funny thing is this....when I was serving, I don't post pictures of me on WhatsApp status or Facebook....I'm not a fan of that. Thanks Man. I'm registered on linkedin since 2021. vikgreen01:
Corper shun…. Ur posting of khaki on statuses don finish now ur eye don clear… welcome to the reality of life….
Are u on LinkedIn. If not go and register there nd start reading peoples journey and success there u mingle with people. Secondly u can kick start ur job hunt in ur location nd u might get thru since u don’t have a relative in the state invites is coming for u… I also had so many invites in my email from Lagos. Lagos is really lucrative in terms of job opportunities. Lastly, u can opt in for volunteering role or virtual internship (either paid or free) programme/training just to acquire some reason work experience… it’s not easy out there…. all the best!!! 1 Like |

Man!!! Congratulations in advance, atleast one stage will soon be over. Yeah, most of the works are requesting for experience, reason I'm going for graduate Internship programs and entry roles. I even applied for MTN graduate Internship but have not heard from them.... don't know if they have started shortlisting thou? Yeah, I'm reading a small free course on UI/ux....it is just like a preamble of what ui/ux is all about.... About making CV, you can search for entry level cv template on google and use the format unless you have the money to hire a professional CV writer. Lisaint:

But right now I’m ready to relocate to any where I got an offer
About your choice of location Lagos is expensive If you don’t have anyone here
Someone mentioned saving allawe It’s not easy saving with the cost of things Family will call Monthly subscription in Nigeria ! Now use highest a week! Especially if you’re the first born and you got siblings couple with the fact that popcy is late
Most graduate internship have seen so far are for 2.1 holder only Example The just concluded mtn graduate internship.
