Hello All,

I want my former Boss to recommend me for my application, but he is saying he cannot use his companies letter head for me.

If i wouldnt mind for him to do the recommendation without the letter head, we are go to go.

I want to ask if it would be an issue for me during my application.

Thanks

Except your boss is a very very high flier in the Industry, or some Head honcho in a research project , then you would score low in the recommendations Tab simply because, your other applicants would be bringing in RECs from Professors, Professor Emeritae, Dons, Research Heads, Head of depts in super agencies (NASA, CERN, NASA JPL etc). If you can , get the required recommendation of your lecturer (preferably with a PhD) , then you can add your former boss' own as an appendage .

If you're going to be sending your recommendation letters via email/application website which is most likely the case, then it probably doesn't matter. Just have all the company information on the letter as you would on a normal business letter. If anyone needs any verification, they can communicate with the recommender.

chemistry people in the house!! abeg who knows a school that can accept some one with GRE 298 149 Q with funding if possible.....

app fee

Since you probably got 214(b) rejection reason, you were not banned. He might have doubted it as you said, or just saw something he didn't like; but usually they place people on AP for things like that while they verify.

Thank you soooo much. I was shivering. Can I pm u?

Hello guys, so I had my interview earlier today(7:15) in Lagos and everything went well until it go to a point when the vo asked about my sevis fee receipt and I handed it over he took time checking he later had to leave his sir for sometime...on getting back he gave me a white paper an ticked that I had to provide additional doc because the sevis ID on my I-20 didn't tally with the one I had on my sevis payment receipt...he said I should contact the school which I did already and I got that fixed and I was told it was because I changed my course that's why we had that discrepancy...now I have mailed the new sevis ID and receipt to the email the vo asked me to mail it to...

Now my questions; does that mean I have gotten the visa because the vo didn't tick administrative process...am uploading a copy of the letter I got please I need you people's opinion

Just out of my own curiosity, I joined nairaland (actively) not too long ago though.How are we really sure they are VO's. I must admit though that they are highly professional with their responses. Big Kudos to them!

Hello VOs

you know, someone has actually mentioned that the VOs are codedly on this thread. I for one thought that was a joke until you just spotted them. USA is really a great country.. They don't take anything for granted.. For those of us that will be asking yeye question on this thread like "should I sign my i20 form?" and later you will be saying I answered all my questions correctly but I was delayed.. you were not delayed my friend. You were denied and it's because of your yeye question. The vos are here monitoring your yeye questions. I would have tagged them both to just greet them but I am scared so dey don't change their minds on my case. any how sha Lagosniv thank you for approving my visa yesterday.

firmphem:

Congrats. You have ur visa

Yes they are VOs. Abuja and Lagos. justwise has verified them long time ago.

firmphem:

Yes o. I was scarred of ban ni

I figured the funny thing my vo didn't ask of any doc aside my I-20 and sevis payment receipt but Bros I didn't stop talking and I wasnt in a rush even while he was on the system I was still looking at his long nose and talking like a parrot and smiling...

Thanks very much, but will I not have issues at the poe at JFK as my school is in Texas ?

Fixed!!!

Flights could be as cheap as N312K if you leave during/before the holidays. If you want to "merry" and have a good family time, just know it's going to cost you some extra solid N200K.

Believe me, they learn a lot on this thread in understanding better the applicants they are dealing with and also the Nigerian youths state of mind in general. This threads helps them in psychologically filtering genuine applicants on the interview floor as they already know everyone are desperate to jaaa komot for naija

No you won’t!

Allylic send an email to **** at gmail dot com. Don’t quote this email as I’ll delete it after getting your email

So what do you propose I do concerning getting a cheaper flight?

thank you bro...

EZEIGBO1OFIMO:

Bro... Good afternoon. Now, the thing is, If I woke you up after you have slept for 12 hours due to previous night of drinks, would you remember all these answers right there?; Chances are that you wouldn't, and the VO will clearly perceive this as a rehearsed answer (which will tick them off).
Now, you're going for CIS, which sounds fancy and Nice , you need to instantaneously think of the possibilities of your course. For Example, Up until recently, our very own CBN has not given a sh*t about Electronic payments and transfers, but due to recent spate of attacks, Lazarus, wannacry, There are some plans to reformat our NIBSS(Nigerian Interbank settlement System) to move out of the scope of Local payments and stand as watchdog for international ones and I bet they would need pioneer CIS guys like you.
Another Example, Our very own Andela has been receiving massive millions in dollars for funding, while they have an overflow of Web, App, Full stack developers etc, they obviously lack the Back end army to be filled with CIS people (hopefully), so there again a wide open opportunity for you.
Another Example: The world is going open source with a bang ; Laravel, Linux, Arduino, ARM, CUDA for GPU's etc etc, and as companies adopt open source materials they would need Quality assurance Techies, Testers, Systems analysts Blah blah blah... That's where you would definitely fit in this century
Another fine Example: Nigeria is finally catching on with the automation fever of the century, and as manual labor is phased out, High level Tech labour is required ,and currently provided by expatriates, so there's somewhere to fit in.
I thought of a these examples off the top of my head without rehearsing, and trust me, if you wake me up at Night I would come up with a dozen more seamlessly . You don't have to a whiz to know these things. Your school probably has a career page to see budding career opportunities for your field, Your alumni base on LinkedIn could give you a sneak peek of what life after graduation has been like for those before you. There are numerous forums like stackoverflow et al where trends in computing and technological fields are discussed daily. But overall, you have to let it flow naturally. BE CHILL!!!.. BE RELAXED!!!
