OP, you work in a firm or business centre?

Obviously a business center, from the letter.

As a business center owner, I may consider him. This is not a white collar job.

I don't expect a flawless letter of employment application from an O'level holder (most likely from public school - someone that went to private school is not likely to apply fopr job after O'level).

If he has some other skills, and if the job doesn't involve writing to external people, I will consider him.

I particularly like his boldness.

ExInferis:


You cannot compare the standards of education back in the 60s and 70s to what obtains now. Heck even the 90s seem like some distant golden era.

besides, we cannot tell what school he went to, whether public or private. i've seen and read worse from socalled graduates here on NL.

fpeter:



so even men too write "mtchew"
very funny.....

Jannie1999:

Rich Dad Poor Dad, that's an eye opener. It's sequel is The Cashflow Quadrant.

ExInferis:


That the Nigerian education system is broken is no fault of his. In the context of this decay, he did well.

Besides, Mr English, it's UTTER, not UPPER.

socialmediaman:


HND actually needs to be upgraded to BTech. They are graduates with a different orientation from Bsc or BEng

NoriegaQ:


Sorry to interrupt but there's nothing like a distinction in CCNA. You sound really bitter.

fpeter:
hahahahahehhheeeee

seriously though, this is not funny. I was talking to my colleagues a few days ago and we were
reminiscing the good old days of being a secondary school student in FGC. the grammar taught to
us back then was solid, you would hardly see any FGC ex-student that cannot speak/write proper
English today. It is a shame to note that nowadays, children born between the 80s and the millennium
are struggling to even write good sentences or spell properly, you see a bunch of them here on NL.

I blame our leaders, checkout the older citizens of our country today their English and hand-writings are
impeccable but because of corruption they have made our youths semi-illiterates.

mikolo80:
so now that Nepa change name to phcn, boy changes

If you can read.

PleAse kindly refer back to the subject.

The things auto-correct do to us these days tho.

He came looking for job in the firm where I work. I laughed after reading his letter and I wonder what kind of graduates our institutions are churning out.

sammydirectly:


the applicant wrote that he's an O'level holder and you wrote here GRADUATE.

NOW I am beginning to wonder who should be laughed at. smh! :/

socialmediaman:


HNDs are graduates, that degree is a technical degree, not a diploma as it is called presently. They should upgrade it

Answer the question, damn it.

Can you construct a simple sentence in your mother tongue?

Emancipate yourself from mental slavery.

AK6464:
pathetic

kayalla:
How is this pathetic? It's an o'level grad. Most graduate can't compose such letter

OrlandoOwoh:
Socialmediaman, even if HND is upgraded to B. Tech, the "discrimination" will still be there. No two things, even twins, are the same.

socialmediaman:


If it's upgraded, there'll be more respect and government agencies and ministries will, by law, start treating them equal with Bsc. Other organizations will immediately follow. Just few years after, everything will normalize and the discrimination will fade, naturally

OrlandoOwoh:

Bsc and B.Tech are all bachellors. Bsc is for universities, B. Tech is polytechnic. The "discrimination" will still be there.

socialmediaman:


Some Universities award BTech for engineering e.g FUTO. Their engineering degree is BTech.

OrlandoOwoh:

Whatever happens, a person that is bent on not employing polytechnic graduates, whatever the name of the certificate issued to their graduate is called, he won't employ them. Do you know that there are some employees that prefer HND holders to Bsc holders?
