I Just Got A Banking Job But Age Falsification Is Standing In My Way by adedotman5(m): 11:25am On Jan 19, 2016
I'm just an interview away from landing a banking job,the last interview is a formality cos the one I've passed is the main interview but I got an issue with my age, I stated on my cv that I'm two years younger than I am. Up till now, I have been using the online print out result for waec in everything I do, but after the last interview, the interviewer said they can't accept it so he told me to go and obtain the original. After much trouble, I obtained the result from my secondary school for 10k and the proprietor said he doesn't give out only waec, since I sat for neco in the school, I must collect both and neco cost 10k also.
Having gotten both, I decided it's better to present the neco result instead of the waec since it's got no age inscribed on it, also I'll be presenting my birth certificate so I just decided the neco is the better option so that my age doesn't contradict. But surprisingly, I was told they need the waec alone and not neco, remember if I present the waec, the age on it is different from the one on the birth certificate and they already have my birth certificate now. Please nairalanders I need your advise on this. Should I present the waec certificate and hope they don't discover, I'm really confused now

That's an integrity issue already , especially for banks who don't joke with issues like that..If its Access Bank , I'd say don't even bother cus they don't play..

Villagers at work already.


With this your profile PIC in public eye, I just hope you haven't been caught already.

I guess its UBA or Access...infact if your Waec is F parallel....its d date of birth they need.

So they will surely discover if yu present it cuz thats wat they really wanna see.

The ball is in your court bro.

There is no way u can escape presenting your Waec certificate. The main reason for asking for Waec certificate is to compare it with your birth certificate. If u present affidavit, they won't even believe it , to them, the age on your Waec certificate is your real age.



Bro, u funny o, so u wanted to create this type of thread and u couldn't remove your pix or create alternate moniker. Don't you know that employers run online checks on prospective employees these days?
I just hope u haven't lost the opportunity already.

Are you saying I shouldn't even attempt to send the waec result now? I don't understand this villagers thing, are you saying villagers work in a bank or what you tryna say? SO THIS FINALLY MADE FRONT PAGE EN? PROVES THE VERACITY OF THE CLAIM THAT "BAD NEWS SPREAD FASTER THAN GOOD NEWS"

UPDATE:= I'VE READ COMMENTS UP to PAGE 3 AND I HAD TO MODIFY AN EARLIER COMMENT TO PASS THIS ACROSS



Thanks @ everybody, really grateful for the pieces of advise, as for y'all screaming out integrity issues, I've not had any since birth, I've NEVER even taken money on the floor talk less of trying to steal another person's dime, I saw a phone on a walkway to my house during undergraduate days, outta the #500 last card left on me, I bought credit on the phone and contacted those I felt were close to the owner, I still owed my landlord in schl 2 months rent since 2010 despite being on I. T during this period but till today, a week cannot pass without ma Conscience reminding me I'm owing someone and if I get a job, I'm definitely gonna pay her from ma first salary. but ma dad's got four graduates, no job, I had a poultry just after service but ma arch customer ran into troubles which she never recovered from till today, she still have majority of my business money, I pride myself in being shewd and smart but never seems to get a half chance to prove it, If I can land a job of 80k in 18-24 months, I'm sure I won't need to work no more cos I believe that's the half chance I've always craved for, it's really been frustrated so far,


Nigeria Factor caused all these, left ma parents house for schl Oct 2005 and could only manage a Bsc 2012 without spilling over!!, I've corrected the age on ma CV and as for my prosecutors I leave you with the message "person wey never see challenge na him dey call himself strong man"
I'm not doing this to instigate anyone's pity, cos I'd rather be pitying someone else than be pitied, it's just to clear the air, I'm a very positive person, I've analyzed the situation, picked up the pieces and is moving on, there's is no situation no matter how bad that doesn't have a positive to take from it, this one is so harsh and leaves a bitter taste but time heals faster than drugs. Once again thanks to you all.

You would have reduced your age b/4 you wrote waec.
My dad is a retired banker he never used his real age,he used his official age.
Forget about the job.

But waec makes mistakes sometimes in cert. Like in my own case, they added four years to my age in my certificate, its only the month that is correct, even d birthday is incorrect. And I av tried all means for them to rectify this, but it has not been rectified since 2002.

Get another job.

except you just want 2 months salary and some disgrace

Bro.
You can doctor the WAEC result.
Change the age on your WAEC result.

If Buhari can forge and obtain a fake WAEC result, you can change an ordinary age on yours.

ogbeni.... odee ni eh.


you dont look like a graduate
so most likely its a cleaners job in the BANK you are abt to land..

if its just the age.. get an affidavit.. except no be your picture dey the waec cert..

u strike me as being dull and arrogant , 2 attributes that renders one valueless in the coorporate world .

you would make a decent fish farmer.. #leavetrashforLAWMA.
