Topic: ADVICE TO ALL FRESH ENGINEERS

Mr. chibuzo, what you are saying is very correct. I got employed last year by DeltaAfrik Engineering Limited (Deltatek/Worly Parsons). I did not get the job because I could use PDMS, I got it because I was a mechanical engr, with piping engineering training and I could use PDMS. So for any software training you are interested in, make sure you have sound background knowledge. It’s a pity we were not told all these in the university and there are only very few credible training institute in Nigeria. My heart goes to all you young graduates.

Good luck to all Nigeria University graduate. E no easy!!!!!

Am also an Engineer working with EPC coy like that. I have HND in mechanical. but immediately i finished my NYSC, i got admission in Uniport and completed my Post HND programme in Petroleum Engineering. so i have HND in Mechanical and B-Eng in Petroleum.so for u those of u that have HND, i will advice u go for post HND programme and get ur B-Eng while still working bcos it is a partime programme, and B-Eng is ur basic as far nigeria school ia concerned. those that read Mechanical and Civil should go for AutocAD training. but if u are already in the EPC coy, u better go for QMS (documentation, internal auditor or lead auditor)training. it will help u very well. but those in Mechanical, i will advice to go for radiographic traning, welding, pipe fitting. all this training will put u in a very good place and sky will be ur starting point and not ur limit. but people ignore thise things bcso they are looking for oil and gas company. welders are the highest pay in the company followed by pipe fitters and radiographers. u can work in any firm. especially if learn combination welding, Caborn steel and duplex welding. u will become superb. great Engineer

hi chibuzor i so much like ur post it touches me real good i would like us to talk so as to get ,more enlightened by u my num is 08032216459,08075927050.thank so much

hi chibuzor i like ur post u kind of honest.i sent a message to u with my phone number which i dnt know if u'v seen.anyway this is my email addy [email protected] 4 more advice on what to do as to add to my self.i studied mechanical engineering.and still much in d look out 4 job.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

thanks chibizor for your knowledgeable and wise contribution. i am iyke, a Polymer Engineering graduate who do like to improve on my knowledge particularly with regards to corrosion, maintenance and project management. what is your advice. i will like to draw from your knowledge of the industry. my email ad is [email protected] or u can call me on 07032811476 and i will call u back.i will like to have a one and one discussion with u,i reside in lagos.Thanks bro

what about graduate with a mechanical engineering backgroung in first degree? thanks

hi Chibuzor. i studied EE and presently working with an inspection company. i really like design. what trainings would you suggest for an electrical engineer who wants to be a professional

Please how can one get this training in pipeline engineering cos i already got the training in PDMS but i know personally that there's still a lot to learn as regards pipe codes, joining techniques, pipe routing etc.

Without this training, one just cant fit in.

Good advice, great minds and mentors.
The trainings are 'very very' essential and engineering graduates are very much aware of this.
But what of those who don't have the resources? Post HND/MSc is it small money?
Many graduates struggle but it seems they don't bother. Hardingworking graduates indeed. Abeg no be by our power only. Well we go dey try our best.

Hi chibuzor,pls i'm a Mech engr,pls advice me on course i can do here in naija to upgrade myself [email protected]
