Frustrating job-market (is there Hope or no Hope?)

Goodday, good people, I am currently doing some personal research on the job market and job hunting, its become a daunting task for most young people, many folks come out of school armed with degrees and Diplomas and end up getting aged in the process of seeking a job.

Well to such a one, I ask, is there hope?The clock is ticking and its already 2 mins to midnight.A job hunt seems the loneliest task in the world. And we wonder: is it this difficult for other people?Well my friends the answer is YES!Are other people this discouraged and desperate and frustrated and so low in self esteem after a spell of job hunting?The answer again is Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!In this search, we dutifully send our resume... to every nook and cranny of the job market and then wait!. Wait! Wait!At this point our worth seems increasingly questionable even in our own eyes.

We start talking to everyone who will listen, and listening to everyone who will talk with us, and thinking, that surely there must be someone who knows how to crack this terribly frustrating Job market.It’s a puzzle my friend, and like every puzzle there’s a way around it. So stick with me and work with me people let’s crack this puzzle. There is a Good job or some other fantastic opportunities out there with your name on it I will share my thoughts and also excerpt from materials I am using in my research of the Job market. What you will read here from time to time, will serve to encourage you, make you more resilient in what ever you so chose to (a job or your own business) and also bring a change (a success story).

Its A Matter of Cash

On the 20th of Jan 2009, i watched on as million and millions of Americans all celebrated one thing HOPE!, and change that lies in horizon, and from my room I wondered will our home land Nigeria ever have something to celebrate about, even if its just change, a change in the right direction. Below is an article written in response to CNN's NIGER DELTA, Planet in Peril,  by a friend of mine,  Comfort Olubo Umaru  a lawyer based in Abuja Nigeria. IT’S A MATTER OF CASH. by  Comfort Olubo Umaru As an avid reader, a former resident of the area and concerned citizen, it would be remiss of me not to start any discussion on the Nigerian Niger Delta with one name. Kenule Saro Wiwa. As a child my favorite TV show was Bassey and Co. This was a screen adaptation of plays written by Ken Saro Wiwa. It was about a wise cracking young man called Bassey and his friend Alale and their varied antics. The show was all about their varied attempts to ev...

Black In The Oval Office, Africa Don't Celebrate Yet

Mr Obama proposes to invest $150bn in alternative fuel over the next 10 years, he said the US would not be held "hostage to dwindling resources, hostile regimes , and a warming planet”. He called for greater fuel efficiency and an "energy economy" aimed at creating millions of jobs for Americans. "We (the US Government )will commit ourselves to steady, focused, pragmatic pursuit of an America that is freed from our energy dependence, and empowered by a new energy economy that puts millions of our citizens to work". Read and read it well Nigerian government, policy makers and anyone who cares, the hand writing is on the wall, since successive government in Nigeria have only payed lip service to creating an economy for Nigeria that is diversified and not heavily reliant on oil, I guess this is a wakeup call. If the major buyer of your product say he see a future of less dependence on not just you as a supplier, but also on the product you sell in the ...

Power of Social Media

So we approaching the last weeks in July 2015, am setting up and trying to know what it feels like working from my new office space within the GRA ( government reserved area) of the city of Port Harcourt, Rivers State Nigeria. A key question for me is, how will I sort out my lunch daily? because it seems like getting lunch is going to be a challenge. As far as I know there are no eateries offering food delivery service in GRA Port Harcourt, unlike in Lagos my office is located in the hub of business Victoria island where its common place to find a range of eateries, pizza joint etc, all offering delivery services. Thank God for google I decided to do quick search online and voilĂ ,! I found Chicken Republic in Port Harcourt. They now offer delivery to some locations in the city and they cover the GRA where my office in Port Harcourt is located. I placed a call to what seems like a central line for all Chicken Republic orders, the customer service center staffs was nice and well...
