The law states it clearly, before you called anyone for an interview, be ready to give the person a job even if he did not qualify for the one interviewed for... Why?? So that you won't throw such person into depression... They are whites..... You are just black with black brains 😂 😂

Jughead29:
Nice one.... It's only in Nigeria that problem will keep pilling up.

In US under the Law, you cant invite people for interview without giving them the Job.

For those mentioning me Read the law

This is actually rude and foolish. The best would have been to simple ignore or drop your suggestion "respectfully". Didn't you see the location before you applied? Didn't they offer you ample time to prepare for the interview.

To even have the guts to post it here. No sane person should employ a loud-mouthed and rude person like you. If NNPC or Shell sent you that invite, would your reaction had been the same?

numericalguy:


Goan sit down for corner.. Na wicked people go suffer people first all in the name of interview.
Technology have solved most of the interview challenges now

They will invite over 1000 people for vacancies not even up to 5 just to make themselves feel good.

PrettyRX:
For you to compare Shell with these small companies shows you have no idea about standard interview processes

advanceDNA:


You are right...He is rude and would likely not get called ......but some of these employer needs rude people like these to make them see reality....

Like seriously...pple are getting jobs without stepping out of their house, yet one cheap àss company want someone to spend over 10k for first interview over a job he may not get.....

the bad part is .....na insurance job that pays 30k per month....

U mentioned oil company....oga ask around.. u will not step into any serious oil company before u get their job...all the first and second online test, interviews, and even signing of offer letter will be done online....one of my friends just a got a job with SchlumBerger and it was the final stage he took flight which the company even paid for...

.. Abeg oooo no company should stress anybody this season...pple dey vex

Kelklein:
It's the height of insénsitivity by employers or recruiters..

Asking all applicants wherever you reside in Nigeria to converge in Lagos because say dem dey find Job.. then tell them you would get back after an exhaustive day, without even a token to support their transportation.

The more sensible thing to do is to conduct the Interview by Zones... Northern Applicants can use Abuja while Southerners use Lagos..

Or better still, use Zoom to conduct the first interviews while those that you desire for the second round can converge at any of the zones above..

Some of those questions you gather people by Invitation to ask can be asked via Zoom.. you can measure a person's level of intelligence, experience and communication skills if you interact with them for just 5minutes via Zoom. It saves you time and stress and that of the recruiters as well, and you would be able to even interact with more prospective recruits.

Recruiters can do better. I heard some of them do these things for fun tho. They say it makes those already on the job to sit up.

eDoctorr:
I don’t think any employer should still follow the old trend of physical interview especially at the first stage.

So I should waste about 10k to Lagos to and fro just for the first stage of an interview.

Never!

bestsales20:
If they conduct online interview, its the same him that would have network failure, poor camera quality, low battery, noisy environment or no data. Sometimes they conduct physical interviews to mitigate this issues.

No doubt the world is revolving but they also have to put into consideration the society we live in. What of other applicants who do not have a laptop or internet enabled phones? We would still complain if they get kicked out because of that.

This is not true. 5 million naira office in Wuse zone 5 ShopRite does not exist. 5 million naira office can not have a small window like a poultry. My naija people no dey carry last for adding salt to conversations. A 5 million office space around where the ShopRite is in Wuse zone 5 will be a duplex (full duplex). If it's in a plaza, it should be a large space. I can now agree that many Nigeria youths are hugely unemployable. If I don't like what is being pushed to me by a company, I simply ignore and move forward. The day you start your own business and start employing, then you will know that Human resources is one factor that can shut you down. When you employ someone today and after you have spent so much to bring the person in, he resigns the next month and you are back to head hunt and the circle continue

Childofaking:
I know the head office of leadway assurance to be at Iponri surulere. Did you edit the company name ?

Oghene86:


With this kind of attitude, it's no wonder many are still without a job. It's not that the jobs aren't available, I've just received my third offer letter in five months. We need to learn to change our attitudes.

You don't know what you taking about

Esthered:

Only interviews at head office is worth it?You'll travel for investment banks and some big coys.

Solseal007:


Y would I go to a branch for an interview, u should know it is the branch manager looking for adhoc staff, unless it is HR that sends u the email

Chijeep:
What is he trying to say?
Should they include tfare for him to come to the venue?
Some people self, you're in a country where 80% of graduates are unemployed and you're here making unnecessary demands.
Abi no be Nigeria this thing dey happen?

PDPdestroyer:
I rather find it shameful you’re even gloating publicly over an act of this nature. No wonder most of you are unemployable
These genZ’s are so senseless and bask in utter stupidity, I don’t know the kind of parents raising the uncouth youths we have in this country these days

Kingpele:
Insanity...I have come to realise that pride is a virus that lives in humans who is not close to God whether rich or poor...you are struggling to eat yet have plenty data to be rude to someone who's willing to give u job that will put food on your table.... were you not aware of the location of the corporation before applying for the job?

Esthered:

The person doesn't understand the competition in the labor market.
The person is comparing with a country with social welfare that government pays jobless people.

GloriousGbola:


an important part of an interview is seeing the candidate in person and gauging him/her.
especially for client facing roles

you cant see these things over an internet connection, especially when you are dealing with strangers you have never met before and who are not recommended by anyone

the other day i called a candidate and the guy was saying yeah yeah yeah. i was thoroughly irritated and i cut off the call immediately.

the role would be in a client head office. that is how the guy would be saying yeah yeah yeah to the ceo and ogas at the top

fxexperts:
Offer letter for how much salary na. It is not by receiving peanut offer. Any employer who ask me to come for a physical interview anywhere i will just tell you where i am and remind you that you will definitely re-emburse transport to me at least. I started doing that after one usless company invited me all the way from port harcourt to Ikoyi Lagos. i took flight and chartered taxi from the airport down there and i found out that the company is in one rented building there in Ikoyi i was already boiling, when i was been interview the useless MD wanted me to do a business bidding for a contract the are planning to apply for, after i knew i have been used ontop my hard earned money, i insulted the living day light out of the MD and all the usless boys he was using to do his useless bidding and warned them never to ever call my number again. this incident happened in 2019.

pocohantas:
Your response is rude and unprofessional. I doubt you fit into corporate work. You should be selling "fan belt" at Ladipo. Even that one, you still need some tact. Something you lack.

You saw the location before application. Sales jobs are for people in that locality as understanding of the terrain is vital.

You could have politely asked for the option of a virtual interview. If they oblige, lucky you. If not, you move on.

Lastly, sales jobs are hard. Sales of insurance is something else. Nigerians do not buy insurance. We cover with the blood of Jesus. So you can let this one go, but don't behave this way again.

fxexperts:
This is myopic of you, don't say Nigerians don't buy insurance a lot do. i do and all of my friends have bought more than 1 insurance plan thus far. and showing the socalled employer the errors of their way is the right way to go, that shows he is someone who values his self worth, you should not encourage people to remain in the old ways of seeing employer as some form of demigod. We are not begging for job in this era, you need some form of services via skill from me and i have the required skillset to fulfil your needs you hire me i do the job and get paid for my services, i tell you the exact amount i want if you agree to pay fine other wise i tell you to go fvck yourself, and i do not ever lack job.
