I have completed Bsc, Msc and PhD at the age of 28 but I will never advice you to waste your time venturing into lecturing. Use all the energy you have to travel overseas for your post graduate. It is Nothing but slavery.

Sir, you just scared me, its lecturing I want to do but

As a computer science grad, put efforts into mastering Programming! It will make you a good living!

Lets ask graduates on Nairaland. Why? Because they are the true eyes of the Nigerian reality when it comes to employment.
The aim of this thread is to vent or explain what you are currently facing as a Nigerian graduate.

Also the purpose of this thread is to let those who are currently undergraduates or serving under NYSC to understand the absolute reality in the Labor market and how challenging survival is.

Ask Graduates On Nairaland

After my NYSC I Waka go every company Wey dey Lagos to submit CV. The truth is no one really gave a bleep or looked at us twice.

This message is for you... forget it! Nigeria don't hav provisions for you...
Few of your mate will be lucky to get a great job in the FGs , States and multi national

Large number of you will keep waiting and hoping...

If your background is solid small financially... don't bother to waste anytime...
As u drop ur khaki and grab ur nysc Certificate...
Apply for UK study admission
If your results is at the high level... start writing Gmat, English test... and search for scholarships in America

For the people who are not sound financially...
Take series of online Certificate and acquire digital skills... keep applying for jobs tho...

With the skills u gain... u can probably start something for urself...

In short, we hav high population with limited jobs...
It's a real challenge and you will get frustrated at some point... don't loose hope and God will never forget you!


Peace Out!!!

UK scholarships how?

Aplaudez:



Majorly Graphics designing sir.

Video animation brings the biggest bucks in Nigeria.... You can create your animations, post them on YouTube, get subscribers and get paid ..


Check Tiktok... There are hundreds of animators there

Just one question though
If everyone learns a trade what will happen to the service industry?
Will you all export your skills abroad to join...surprise surprise their service industry?
Please not everyone has to be an entrepreneur
I blame ibb for legalising corruption and making it a shortcut to sudden wealth
Like another poster said there are jobs out there
Stop waiting for government work and start something
You must not hammer before you hit 30
Simple

Here's your answer

UK scholarships how?

Where did you cee UK scholarship?
Maybe u should read carefully


I said scholarship in America

Anyways,don't let anyone deceive you.Education is NOT a scam..the only thing I can say is,instead of looking for job,why not create one..there is no crime in starting small.the aim is to grow.

Pls what are the online skills one can acquire and how do I go about it

NIGERIA IS FU*CKED!!
LEARN A SKILL OR FIND A SIDE HUSTLE. OR BETTER STILL YOU JAPA
I REPEAT NIGERIA IS bleeped!!!!!!!!!!

say it, loud bro. Yesterday, I just decided to go have a drink alone, right there are the bar, I reflected on my life when I was in Nigeria, all I can say is thank you, God. What I earn in a week here is 15times my month salary in Nigeria. It's just that bills dey here sha, all the same we're good.

My advice to Nigerian graduates is to learn a skill, and with time, leave the country for those that spoiled it if you can.

Develop a passion for nursing
Get yourself into a nursing school. In 3 years you are done. Write and pass IELTS and you are in hot demand abroad.
Travel out as a nurse... Register and start working, then you are a king for life...

Then, the 3-year investment or sacrifice to your future is worth it.

A nurse abroad is a king.... Just 3 years sacrifice in the school of nursing + passing IELTS.... That's all

What is special about being a graduate? Does being a graduate make you different from the average human hustling to make ends meet?

Nigerian graduates need to drop this useless entitlement mentality. You're not different from the plumber, barber, construction worker, shoemaker, market woman, fashion designers, etc.

Go and fûcking hustle. You're not entitled to nothing you didn't hustle for.

Angelfrost:
I'm doing very well as an employee and as a freelance writer...

However, I always wish I had learnt soft skills while in school, and started hustling then.

No regrets Sha... Still, I will counsel every undergraduate not to waste his youth trying solely to get a degree or degrees! The jobs are quite few and seriously in competition!

Thank God for the internet, you can start off your career online!

Happy Sunday boss, I just want to start freelance writing, what advice do you have for me? I am not sure I am very good with writing, but I know people do contract it out to writers and share the profit

Which kind of handwork should one learn
?

Stevenson20:
Any graduate that thinks that after graduation, he or she will work in a big or well paying firm or organization is daydreaming, unless you have the Connection
Na so most of us think am that year. When reality hits you, you'll start thinking with your brain instead of your anus. Even if you get, before month ends, you've already eaten almost your salary and even borrow money from your neighbors.

My advice is simple: Go and learn handwork or trade

Hmmm

Hassanmaye:

What is the pay of a PhD lecturer?

129k after at least 3 to 6 years of PhD research lol.

Dontleaveme:


People are fond of just making this statement. Is the skill free or you need money to acquire it?

Yes, it's free. Use your data to upgrade yourself, not just watch porn and troll

Make we just dey thank God!...

And the population will continue to increase while the jobs would decrease... More desperate mouths to feed in a country offering little or no hope for the future.

There are so many mouthwatering jobs, out there....

If only, you have what it takes, to get them!

Grace!

Happy Sunday great one.

Writing is a passion and a gift which I have honed in the space of decades! So, I do it effortlessly and now profitably.

You don't have to do writing as a freelancer. There are many other profitable things you can do depending on your abilities and career direction.

Yes, you can get the gigs and contract them out, but how sure are you the person given the contract will deliver?!! You are better off doing freelance career in something you love.

You are on your own.

Learn a Skill

Be Smart

Believe in yourself (One man Mopol)

Learn how to drive

Know something about everything

Always be positive

Read..Read..Read everything you find worthy

Always try your luck in everything worthwhile ( scholarships, grants, etc)

Lastly, don't be greedy else, you will loose everything.

Finally, there is grace and there is God factor. Ensure you pray.

ItsTutsi:
Which kind of handwork should one learn
?

We have many of them. Just follow your heart or you choose the one you have passion for.
Some include: CCTV installation, barbing, house wiring, plumber, Aluminium Fabrication, tailoring, programming etc

Start Blogging Business And Start Smiling To The Bank

Get In Touch With To Get Started

Leave this country if you have the means.

If you don't, learn a transferable skill, there are so many free resources available online. What do I mean by transferable skill? It's a skill that'd still be very relevant outside the shores of Nigeria.

Once you save enough from the skill, leave this country. Your money won't/can't save you.

Trust me, a well paying job won't rescue you from the ruins in this country. Irrespective of who comes into power next year, it will take a miracle for the situation to get better.

It will get to a point people will pray Buhari remained in power, the same way we wished GEJ won. A word is enough for the wise.
