Good day to you Seniors, I have a first degree in Chemical engineering but currently work as a Mechanical engineer in the automobile industry. I am liking my job and don't mind a career therein. My fear, however, is academic progression. Will I ever be admitted to pursue a second degree in Mechanical engineering? UNILAG comes first to my mind. If I don't get to be admitted, then will a much prolong stay on my present job and a "mismatched" academic qualification not pose an hindrance to career progression (job change) as I move on? |

Graduate Chemical Engineer... serving corper... completly unfazed by the tales of doom surrounding the economy of this great nation and the job market... reality is relative and it's all won or lost in the mind. One just need to study the trend, do the needful on time, stay informed, including sourcing for tips from people already in desired industry or career path, be always prepared and develop the sort of tenacity that would astound a bulldog... ...the kingdom suffereth violence... the violent taketh it by force 3 Likes |

I seriously hope we can keep this thread alive. I know we have quite a number of chemical engineers on this forum but the participation has not been encouraging, unlike the threads for electrical engineers and other professions. |

Hi All, I have read through the thread and its so interesting and enlightening. I need advise/suggestions from the house. I am a Bsc Chemistry graduate from a Nigerian university, and I've been offered admission to study for Masters in Process Engineering in a Uk top research university. I have always loved Chemical Engineering and would love to build a career in this field. What is the prospect of getting a job on graduation in Nigeria and even in UK? |
Re: Chemical & Process Engineers Forum by gmart(m): 8:31am On Feb 22, 2015 |
The right question is: Why do you love chemical engineering? I'm asking this question because over the years i have seen students of chemistry, polymer science and other related courses cross over to chemical engineering only to be disappointed at the curriculum. First, you must understand that chemical engineering is not chemistry and also that Chem.E deals with more mathematics than most of the other engineering disciplines. If after you've done a proper background study of the course and you still remain genuinely passionate about the profession then you'll most likely find something to do after graduation, considering chemical engineering is one of the most versatile fields of engineering. What you should be bothered about at this stage is earning a good grade, at least a distinction at the end of your programme. This is what will really give you an edge and increase your chances of employability and not just the fact that your degree is foreign. All the best Imeisua: |
Re: Chemical & Process Engineers Forum by gmart(m): 8:50am On Feb 22, 2015 |
Sandra4Christ: I don't really think expensive safety trainings and certificates will do you much good at this stage. Considering your level of experience (fresh grad) you'll most likely be recruited into any O & G firm as a graduate trainee and what will open that door for you is your class of degree. What did you graduate with? If you didn't do too well in your first degree, you should consider pursuing a master's degree immediately after NYSC to help compensate for that. But this is also dependent on other factors such as age. For now, I'll say stay close to the career section of O&G companies websites, job/vacancies section on nairaland here too is also quite rich and apply to as many O&G openings for fresh graduate as you can find. Practice sample aptitude test questions and follow career blogs like jarushub.com etc. Don't forget the God factor too while at this. Wish you the best. 1 Like |

thank you very much gmart for the advice....I graduated with a second upper. I really want to have an edge over my counterpart that's why I desire a short course in the course of my NYSC |

Re: Chemical & Process Engineers Forum by gmart(m): 6:25am On Feb 24, 2015 |
Hello people, I could not respond earlier to your comments because of my engagements. Sandra4Christ: @Sandra your class of degree gives you a bit of an edge already. You must understand that you do not have to outclass the entire chemical engineering graduates in the country to earn a career opportunity in the O&G sector . If I were you, what I'll be bothered with at this stage is putting together a nice CV and rigorously applying for any available O&G job opening I can find. You should work to ensure that you're invited for at least 2 job test/interviews even before rounding up your service. Also take advantage of the service year to network with your colleagues and stay within the circle of information as this is also very important. @jesuspikin77 I don't think your earlier post was rude, time constraint is why I couldn't respond earlier. The issue of age is quite a challenge that young graduates are now having to contend with. I have seen a number of intelligent and articulate fresh grads remain unemployed as a result of this. But then again my advice on this issue has always been; Rather than remain UNEMPLOYED, it is better to be UNDEREMPLOYED. This is because in underemployment you are at least afforded the opportunity of gaining experience which can in turn qualify you for an experienced position and consequently a better job placement. It is very rare coming across age restriction for experience hires, most HR apply the age thing when recruiting fresh graduates. So, finish well (a first class will do you more good), look out for some small oil servicing firms if you intend to pursue a career in the O&G sector. There are tonnes of these firms but most Nigerians only know about the big players. The likes of ARKLEEN and Estymol Oil are not the kind of companies you hear of on a regular, yet they offer some of the best hands-on training to their employees. You will also find out that the possibility of the age restriction not applied or the benchmark adjusted to accommodate your age bracket is higher in these "low profile" firms than in more established companies like the Shells, Totals etc. Don't be afraid to start small and if pushed further start from the very bottom, soon the experience you've gained will make you highly sort after. Wish you guys the best. 3 Likes |
