• 8 Annoying Things Nigerian Graduates Hear Before Entering The Job Market

    “So after 5 years of Engineering, I should go and be a farmer?!”

    Written By:

    1) You know there is no job out there.

    As if I don’t know the country I live in.

    2) You are not entering the Labour market but the FAVOUR MARKET.

    This isn’t a depressing thing but it’s just really really corny.

    3) No salary is too small.

    So If I live in Ikorodu and a company in Lekki offers me a job with a salary of 10K, I should take it? Do you have sense like this?

    4) You should really think about going into Agriculture.

    After 5 years of Engineering?? ARE YOU MAD?!!!!

    5) The violent taketh it by force.

    So I should murder other applicants when I go for job interviews? Is that what you mean?

    6) Write a lot of professional exams.

    WILL YOU HELP ME PAY FOR THEM?!

    7) Make sure you get Government job.

    But sir, do you think it is that easy?
