Nigerians indeed are in love with adventure. I greatly cherish that. One should not get stuck in one place in a lifetime. Please gurus, the way I see people talk about getting employment with degrees in engineering and medical courses scares me. I m now wondering whether a masters in social science, international relations precisely could land man any job because currently am weighing going to either Germany, Canada or Norway for masters. I did history and international relations in my undergraduate. Please folks, are there scholarships for a course like this in d aforementioned countries or is there any more lucrative related one u think I should delve into? |

chaiks:Social sciences grads are not usually in demand due to the high number of natives studying or graduating from those courses. Natives have superior communication, culturural and local skills, but you can still get a job if your course of study is policy related, although might not pay so well compared to science/engineering. 1 Like |

Here's something worth reading. I hear people say the UK gives you only 4 months to look for a job when in fact it is 12 months + additional 4 months after your studies.

dustydee:Saying that no place on earth is more tolerant than the UK- very unexpected, considering the anti-immigration chants that followed brexit. |

dustydee: plz, that's a subjective view of the writer and her opinion can't be generalised as regards the immigration policies of the UK, though she is in the rubric of the luckiest few fortunate to get a good job; regardless it's not a guarantee that everybody else would settle down, talk less of getting a job but one can only be hopeful that luck and fate work in one's favour. 2 Likes |

silentdude:True, countries have different immigration policies. Some nice and some not so nice. There is no guarantee of success in any of the countries.The onus is on a potential immigrant to research and take his or her chance at moving to a different either to work or study. 1 Like |

lobito007:True. The brexit just made some ignorant white people bold. In my opinion, aslong as there are races mixing together, there would always be racists around. In all my time in Manchester, UK, i have only been told to go back to where i came from once. This is one occurence in 5years. Not bad at all. In Canada, 5 years plus and not one occurence yet- another good record, but i have friends that have been told to go back to where they came from. Even a patient won't let a doctor friend attend to him cos he is black. i presently live and work in a red neck town, and i was even advised by whites not to move there cos of racist people, but 1year here already and nothing of such nature. That doesnt mean there are not racist people here, most likely they are not bold enough to confront me. some of my work colleagues even have the US confederate flag on their cars, that gives me an insight into their minds.lol when people ask me if the Uk is racist, i usually say it depends. Same as canada. People's experiences differ. i read this vice article some weeks ago about a black canadian girl's experience in london, ontario. ontario is the most culturally diversified province in canada. 1 Like

shinarambo1: Actually that is not entirely true, Asians and blacks voted for brexit in thousands. Cities like Luton and Bradford all voted for exit and check the demographic of those cities to see the make up. |

justwise:Any reason why racist incidents suddenly increased just right after brexit? I thought some people just got too excited and they couldnt hide their racist tendencies. |
Re: Before Applying Or Coming To The Uk For Studies: Beware Of This by justwise(m): 6:25pm On Sep 02, 2016 |
shinarambo1: I don't think it increased that much but brexit gave it an attention. Every incident between white and non-white is now linked to brexit. |

justwise:i have a friend that voted out, and her reason was that there was too much pressure on healthcare facility and education for kids. This same lady got eggs thrown at her by some racist yobs driving by some years ago. Alot of people think only racist or xenophobic people voted out, but my friend above is non of the two. |

lobito007: But he was saying the truth naaaa. Why dont Nigerians like hearing the truth? The only job you can just get no stress is in IT. Every other job is very difficult to get, even Germans go two, three years without jobs. Now no one prays for this and again it depends on how lucky you are, but knowing the truth so one can prepare adequately for challenges ahead doesn't hurt. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

awelekiti:I dunno about EE, but I know the computer eng/IT jobs far outweigh the applicants, and as for Biomed, I would love to get in contact with that guy please, let me get informed as regards tips. I know personally two persons who studied Chemical Engr who found jobs in over 2 years, i also know someone who got a job immediately after studies but that was far back in 2003. That said anyways truly the language requirements depend on what field on is in exactly and if one is going to interact with Operators who obviously only speak German in the Plant. In the end, we pra for God's Grace sha... Cos living in this place as a foreigner who is neither a student nor employed is crazily crazily expensive. |

Weedcrusher: Nah...that would be Germany bro. You dont pay tuition, you work and earn cool bucks(probably more than those in Canada €>$, ability to work full time...) The only 'little' challenge is the language. Then the big challenge is job after studies. But if you actually just want to "study" and return, Germnay toh badt. 1 Like 1 Share |

shinarambo1: My workmate who is an African voted out, she own issue is with Polish workers. Many voted out thinking things will change immediately but the UK hasn't left the EU yet and will not leave at least till 2017 or 2018. I can't stop laughing at some people.. |

Obiwannn:Bros, I'm a believer who knows what God's favour means and how far it can take one. After we've put-in our best, this is what we should be asking for...you'd see somebody who got a job almost immediately after graduating and somebody else with same qualification and degree, if not a much better one, still roaming the streets looking for job. In all the places I'd worked before I founded my company, it's been God's favour all the way and these companies' names still ring bells till today. I never struggled to find or switch jobs...everything was just falling in place at ease. God's favour always helps make the journey faster. Cheers 1 Like |
