SyrusdeHansome:

Na sales boy work?

Hahahahaha!!!!

I graduated with first class from ABU then proceeded to university of nottingham to do my master's degree and PhD.


After doing my PhD , the university board called me to be an associate professor in the university.

SyrusdeHansome:

Na sales boy work?

When grace speaks for you, there's no question about how or why it does.

No be sales.

Infact it has nothing to do with sales.

More of management....

Actually it's a system admin job, someone posted it on a Facebook group though I have no experience with networking and servers but because of my zeal and I offered to work for free, I got the job and I work and earn salary at 17yrs.
He did everything himself and I wrote the exams and passed the interview, the rest is history

Digital skills is the way.

#50k, #100k work per month, won't make you comfortable, it will just make you not beg to eat.
Skills + Hardwork + Consistency + Prayer

How about farming ??
Food & cash crops
No be everyone go be tech .

How can one learn d course
D costs nd how long does it take

If you're good in physics or study any Engineering courses, then you're good to go.
A week course in Automation could cost close to half a million naira. You could search online for where to attend such. Some of the trainers have never practised on the field, just dishing out theories.
I have been on this field for over 15 year with hand-on-the-job and had worked with a lot of Expatriates across the globe. Sometimes ago, I decided to train more youths on this field and mentor them to become Automation Engineers but only to realize according to Mr President that Nigerian youths are lazy. Then, I backed out having satisfied my conscience.

Can I get your contact bro ?

ShenTeh:
You won't even believe it.

My current job, I was contacted from a job board. I did a telephone interview and by what should be a second interview with my would be manager (now my manager), it was 'when are you resuming? Do you have any questions for me?' to God be all the glory.

I am resuming a new job mid June, by God's grace, with one of the top 10 banks in the world. I applied for a role with them but got contacted on LinkedIn by them for another (higher) role.

Again, to God be all the glory.

How do i make such move too

Got my current job through LinkedIn. The former one was also through LinkedIn. You get to a point in your career that HRs start reaching out to you if you are good at what you do.

One of the major advices I share with youngsters who care to listen is be humble enough to start small if that's all you have for a start. The key thing is just ensure you have a plan and be intentional in fulfilling your plans. My first job was 27K, I accepted it anyway and did it for only 3 months before I got a good offer from a multinational company. Since then I've switched across 3 different multinationals.

If the only opportunity that is available is a small one, start anyway, learn as much you as you can, build your network, improve on your profile and then the rest will unfold like magic

Can you help me on how to build my LinkedIn page.. Pls

Good question
Before my NYSC, I was determined to work in a company. I was posted to a secondary school to teach but the school rejected me. I visited all the companies in the state and the last one I visited accepted me. Six months into the service, the company notified me of their intentions in employing me due to my outstanding inputs.
Employed immediately after the service year, sent to Siemens for trainings on Programmable Logic controller (PLC), Variable Frequency Drives, Industrial Automation etc. Later sent to Russia on industrial Electronics.
This area of career is mostly occupied by Expatriates in Nigeria, some are even Indians. There are job vacancies for this job because very few are into it mainly because it's hard to learn and the cost of training is very high.
With Dangote refinery coming on board, I advice Nigerian youths to venture into this field of Automation or else the Indians will continue to enjoy the space.
It takes EXTRA efforts to made a difference

Can you shed more light on the "Automation"

Thanks for this my brother.

Please, direct me to where & how to run ads and professionally also.

Use your brain and social media please.

I'm a 5 star salesman, paid advertising newbie , that's the skill you need to master now in Nigeria to make money daily.

I can sell water to a well...

If you are in Lagos or any of the cosmopolitan cities, you need some tools.

- Phone , internet , Laptop (not necessary) , facebook, instagram page, twitter, jumia, konga, facebook maeketplace, etc.

- go and learn how to run ads.

- know how to take good pictures.

- use a good logistics company for deliveries.

Enter street, look for big time importers, negotiate with them. Tell them you will bring customers and sell thier products very fast.

Try and learn a skill nah, bros. I wish you and other Nigerian youths in similar situation(i know quite a lot of them) the best.

I learn painting job. After making so many effort to secure job and couldn't, but it's unfortunate that sometimes it's somehow

Glory to God.

Sent CV via linkendln, got invites, went for interview and boom, I got the job. To resume June 1st

hmm

I was reached out to on LinkedIn. I have done multiple interviews with European and US companies but no success.

To God be the Glory, one clicked and pay is in Euro. Its been good so far.

My only Nigerian interview was supposed to be First bank but I turned it down. I avoided Nigerian companies because their pressure is something else and they pay nonsense.

this is wise advice. I have said it here countless times, digital skill is the way to go.

I wish young Nigerians know what bringing out a month or two to learn a digital skill will earn you on Fiveer or Upwork.

When I was in Nigeria, I learned one and it helped me alot. I learnt web design and development.

I freelance, use geepay to convert my dollar and push it to my naira account.

Working on upwork will make you live what I call a baby boy lifestyle.

Imagine earning 3000 dollars a month. It's not easy if you start, but with time, you will reap the fruits.

A friend of mine just got a job in the US, he will be coming to Connecticut next month. He is a data analyst.

Linkedin.

I reached out to a popular person in my industry and asked for a referral. All I did was to then reach out to those people that this so so person asked me to reach out to you.. You'd be shocked at how names open doors. The guy didn't know me from anywhere.

Build connections. Who you know matters than what you know in this country.

Nothing but the Absolute Truth.

In Nigeria, I have seen lots of Dumb/Average People who won't pass for 10% of my Intelligence handling Top Positions and these Men are in Money. Some of these people won't even pass for a Vibrant College Degree Holder.

I'm not always Surprised because the Bolded is how they got the Juicy Positions.

I have two brothers studying computer education
I have tried convincing my parents to channel same amount of money on these guys to learn digital skills but No they so value this degree thing
