MUST READ: WHY YOUR GOOD GRADE MIGHT STILL NOT GET YOU A GOOD JOB

WHY YOU MIGHT NOT GET JOB, EVEN WITH A
GOOD GRADE

I' ve come to observe that often times employers would rather go for an experienced graduate with average grades than a fresh graduate with excellent grades.

Given me a chance to clarify this.

During recruitment processes with the exception of GraduateTrainee vacancies , employers usually prefer candidates who already have hands-on experience and can work with minimal supervision.

Case in point, an employer searching for an Accountant will normally want to enroll one who can agreeably deal with his accounts with next to zero supervision.
One who is capable in different bookkeeping instruments on the grounds that he has worked for quite a long time ( even in a little organization like ABC & Sons Limited ).
The employer wouldn ’t want a Fresh graduate with no hands -on accounting experience ( even with a 2.1 or 1st class) .
 Fresh graduates usually require on the job training and training , as you know, comes with its own overhead.

My Advice:
Don’t be to choosy . Everyone can’t work at Zenith bank , Exxonmobil, Pwc or Nigerian Breweries at the same time . Working at ABC & Sons Ltd today doesnt mean you can’ t work at Chevron tomorrow . Be patient , it’ s not a race. Good luck Jonathan was once a Lecturer, today he is the President . You could apply and take up smaller jobs from small companies where the competition is lower.
Garner some experience and then apply to bigger companies . Later on, your years of experience will definitely give you an edge over other job seekers.

Trust me!
