Don't lose hope; everything will be alright bro.

Thank you sir.

alizma:

Oga I will advise you to save small money, then quit your job and learn "hand work". Learn how to fix car and house AC, tilling work or driving (private driver). You will thank me later.

Much appreciated, sir. Hand work seems to be the surest thing now.

You don't have to leave your current job to start over; your current job is your means if survival. You have to dedicate some hours of your time to learn new skills/things. I can't even the last time I slept for
3-4 hours. NEVER PUT YOUR HOPE ON HUMANS. It has led to tears...VERY tears. That's just the sad situation we've found ourselves in this country. It's one of the reasons we're not progressing 'cause unqualified people are handling several positions. But, you just need to widen out. Go to certain places and meet people. I've seen people that got connections that led to jobs when they were discussing in public. A barber I knew years ago was sponsored abroad for his football career while discussing at the barbing salon. He was barbing my agbalumo head without realizing the next person was a coach. You just have to always make yourself available. Let people be aware of your qualifications and abilities.Years ago, I was with an older family friend at a shell company, so a man started having issues with a computer, he didn't know what to do and getting someone to fix it was a problem. I volunteered to fix it(to the surprise of everyone), and I was able to solve the issue because I've spent hours operating, spoiling and repairing the various computers we had at home. The man immediately offered me a job and I started working the next day till I went to the University. You just have to greatly expand your knowledge and skills acquisition 'cause you never know when you'll be needed.Move with friends that impact positive values to your life. Teach each other things. I taught a friend how to repair computer hardwares and he taught me how to barb. I apply my skills in my day to day life. I'll be turning 68 soon, hope you'll wish me long life and prosperity?

You are an inspiration, sir. I pray God grants you all of your wishes.
I handle computers excellently well (both operations and diagnostics) and it has been a saving grace more times than I can count. Currently working on expanding my skills soon probably into website development.

The school ended up not being able to recruit anyone for my department (Physics department), while recruiting more than needed for some departments (all those SOS, BUD e.t.c). I later heard that for months, some of the recruited assistant lecturers refused to show up for lectures. They obviously got the lecturing job through connection and you can't give what you don't have.

ChiefSosa:

Nowadays, you can't be relying of certain collar jobs; you need jobs involving your skills. Some barbers earn and spend more than that 16k a week. You need works where you're seeing the money. Salary work nowadays just seems like a waste of time, honesty! It's people with skilled jobs that are doing well now, because they're seeing the money and can spend without waiting for salary at the end of the month. I know some people that dropped out of schools to pursue skills and now they're doing better than some graduates. Even if you're working at some collar jobs, you should have Plan B, C and even D.

You are right with your submission. I have since discovered this, but that would mean leaving this current job and starting all over again. How then am I going to be able to handle these other responsibilities? My siblings had already lost some years at home just so my parents can focus on my education to see me graduate. It will be selfish to forsake them now.
Add to the fact that it will require some sort of financial investment as well as time to learn a worthwhile skill- both of which are not in my possession right now.
The biggest mistake any young man can make right now is going to university without first getting a skill. Or at the very least, you find a way to combine both. Unless of course you have been assured of a job upon graduation.
PS: A Federal College of Education, located just opposite my address did a recruitment which coincided with the end of my youth service. Lucky me, right? Well, I went there and a senior lecturer had this to say: "The school is desperately in need of someone with your qualification, but unless you know someone that can push your matter forward. Best of luck to you"

Hmmmm....... I have no clue how people earning N30k salary survive let alone the unemployed..... so let me take a seat and hear from the ehmmmm...... magicians.

30K? I currently earn 16k as a teacher in a private school with my BTech degree in Physics/Electronics. Might I add that I am the first born of the family and currently solely responsible for the school fees of three siblings, and to a large extent, their feeding too? The depression alone no be here. I had such high hopes of securing a job after service. May God help us in this country.

Thank you both kindly. I guess I came too late to the party. I'm not up for the live tutoring sessions. If there are any similar opportunities out there, I hope someone will be kind enough to share them with me.

Since you've applied already, wait for the 10 business days to elapse .
There's no need to reapply if you didn't get a response from them.

I'm grateful for your response. Assuming they get back to me, can I work on the platform using an android phone?

Good morning comrades. I came across this thread a few days ago and rushed to (yesterday) without asking these questions:
1. Is any recruitment currently ongoing?
2. If no to the above, hope I haven't made a mistake ing when there is currently no ongoing recruitment?
3.If I don't get any response from them within the 10 working days, is it possible to again in the future when they are recruiting?
4. Lastly, can one excel on the platform using only an android phone?
Thanks in advance.
