I Just Got Hired By A Company As A Graphic Designer For 10k Per Month! by emmy4real94(m): 7:53pm On Oct 03, 2023 |
I wanted to share my recent experience with all of you. I consider myself a skilled product designer, and when I first heard about the salary offer for a Lagos remote job, I was honestly taken aback and even had a good laugh about it. My initial instinct was to reject it outright. However, after giving it some thought, I realized that I've recently completed my NYSC, and job opportunities aren't exactly pouring in. While I occasionally take on gigs from different sources, they don't come by very often. So, I've decided to accept this offer, even though it still feels a bit unusual to me. I believe it's a stepping stone towards more significant opportunities. What I'm truly looking for now is to connect with people who have a steady flow of design jobs. If any of you know such individuals or companies, I'd greatly appreciate your help in making those connections. Feel free to comment if you'd like to see my portfolio. Looking forward for remote positions as a product designer. Covering website and app designs, product branding, general design etc.. I've been a part of this amazing Nairaland community for over ten years, and I've gained so much from it. Now, I hope to find support and collaboration within this community to further my career as a designer. Thank you all for your time and consideration! 6 Likes 1 Share |

TemplarLandry: Thanks alot for the encouragement... Actually I agree with you. It will add up to my portfolio. From their calendar. I'm to do 1 design every day! That's 30 designs within a month. |

Yes, by doing your job diligently, you're further honing your graphics design skills. When they see your diligence, they'll increase your salary. They would also start directing clients to you. emmy4real94: 1 Like 1 Share |

It might be a test from them. After 1 month, you have to reach a concrete agreement on salary increment. So it's even a three month probation, I hope they increase your pay to a high figure cos I can't imagine paying somebody for 10k per month. 6 Likes |

youngsahito:. They are thieves. 30 designs in 1 month is 90 designs in 3 months after which they will tell you they don't want you anymore. Let him go and join fiverr as a freelance and spend your time there. Even on nairaland I give graphic artists jobs for 25k for one design. 3 Likes |

My bro, I will be very truthful to you because I want to believe they missed out on one zero. But if it's what I'm seeing, 10k/30 is roughly 340 naira per day!! Even a wheelbarrow pusher and cobblers earns higher than that... Did you consider how long you will spend per day to create one design?? In all ramifications, this is modern day slavery!! You have a nice skills, do not settle for less in the name of it's a stepping stone while in reality, you are just in there cage... 10K?? For this economy!! No shaah develop eye problem because of 10K...!! 3 Likes |

emmy4real94: You accepting this offer is degrading your skill and causing problems for other graphic designers out there. Even those that work in business centers take at least 3-5k to design a simple flyer. What you take for a month is what I take for a hour's work on graphic design. Sorry to ask, don't you have working costs like data, NEPA bills, fuel, recharge credit, etc? 1 Like |

clays: You've said it all. This was what I was trying to point out to the OP... were I leave, that 10k wouldn't be enough to foot my electricity bill, talk more of data and other expenses. Just watch out, after his 3 months probation, they'd likely look for one excuse or the other to kick him out. 1 Like 1 Share |
