New Trend Alert!! Companies Now Taking Advantage Of Job Applicants!! by integridad: 7:51pm On Jun 16, 2023 |
Dear Applicants, Do you know that there is a new trend with companies especially these small scale "One man businesses" Companies schedule interviews with people they have no intention hiring, They take advantage of frustrated job seekers, ask them questions usually around business development to steal their ideas. Job seekers who went through pain or spent a lot, some even borrowed to arrive at the interview venue. This is very wrong, NLC should look into this exploitation Most Nigerian jobs posted on LinkedIn are fake, companies do this to create publicity and a faux appearance of growth, Applicants beware!! If you ever attend an interview like this, please visit this post and tag the company. 155 Likes 13 Shares |

Most jobseekers aren't good enough for the job, no employer is frustrating them, this way of thinking is what makes applicant find ways to justify their incompetence ,instead of looking for ways to upskill and do better at interviews they find ways to throw the blame at the employers, just to feel good about themselves. Most of them will respond positively to this post as a way to confirm their bias and feel good about themselves. 124 Likes 15 Shares |

Ofadaman: - 'to steal their ideas' means I'm writing about job applicants who are intelligent. Later one wld discover that the ideas or solutions that was shared by an applicant is being used or implemented by the company. That is intellectual theft and being done to job seekers makes it more debasing. 85 Likes 9 Shares |

Many Years Ago Okonjo Iweala said a lot of Graduates are unemployable I disagreed with her Having been on both sides of the table She wasn't wrong The smartest migrate or are snapped up by Multinationals and high paying and high earning companies in critical roles of which Nigeria already had a high poverty and poor purchasing power problem so most companies are not.in that league Some dont have soft skills or interview skills or job Schools to are not optimised to produce high ranking students The companies And organisations that earn billions and pay high like Mobil, Shell, Seplat ,NNPC , CBN, NPA cannot employ every single Nigerian graduate The rest companies are left to pick from the candidates Some times some candidates are a diamond đź’Ž found in the rough Sometimes some companies are a diamond found in the rough as in good management and good staff treatment. That explains everything The purpose of a company is to create goods and products and services that customers would pay for and keep coming back to repurchase All employees are to work to achieve that aim and employees would be paid from the revenue pool as the company would also pay other bills like machinery, Internet, advertising, stationery, electricity etc Also note that every serious business is looking for ideas to achieve that aim 41 Likes 6 Shares |

Why won't they? When the government is completely USELESS... When the country is still struggling with provisions of BASIC AMENITIES.. When government does nothing to support the companies but they're only interested in taking taxes from them... When some first class graduates can't get a decent job for many years after graduation... IT WILL NEVER BE WELL WITH BUHARĂŚ, IBB, JONADĂ€FT, EMEFIELE AND MANY OTHER CORRUPT BASTARĆŠS. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Use to think hiring was an easy task until recently my line manager asked me to hire someone who will join my team. Oboy it's been more than a month and yet to find the right candidate. Prior to now, I thought having a good resume was overflogged but I know how many CV have sent to my recycle bin without bothering meeting the candidate just cos the CV was poorly drafted. Op I doubt if any reasonable company will go through the stress of recruitment just to steal ideas from candidates. 14 Likes 1 Share |

I will encourage job applicants to take more risk in job applications. Apply for jobs outside the country. It’s rare, but it happens. No crime in trying and you still have absolutely nothing to lose. 19 Likes 5 Shares |

They are simply asking the younger generation to create a job for themselves if they are not happy with the current situation. It's a sort of challenge though. |

If the ideas generated are no different from what Nairaland “writers” create as articles, there is no need to intervene. The companies won’t be able to make sense of them talk less of implementing. 1 Like |

Ofadaman:Well, I don't know about other professions, but in software development, it happens a lot. Some will advertise jobs just to solve the problem they are having with their application. They send you a task, and after you solve it, they stop communicating with you, and the code you wrote will be used by them. And this does not happen with Nigerian companies alone but with all companies all over the world. 20 Likes |

integridad: If you asked a question and you think it is to steal your idea and not to hire you, then answer frankly. You cam as well tell the interview ler that you wouldn't want to share this specific idea because you are afraid they'll use it and not hire you. 8 Likes 1 Share |
