yes oh!!!
they called it one funny name like that. am sure they have not seen anybody who will pay that much for a training that they have refused to say what prospects it has. It was ridiculous sha. After all the forming they were doing, only to begin to ask for money for a supposedly already sponsored programme.
Yes o! It was ridiculous after all the stressful screenin process to be askd to pay 10k.do they xpect job seekers to cough out dt huge sum n transport to ikoyi daily for a so called sponsored program and no assurance of a job placement.naija na wa o
So so true. One of the finally shortlisted candidates told me so. Funny enough, it was not indicated AT ALL in the advert they placed earlier on. They should have just included the mandatory =N=10,000 from the onset. So a job seeker will pay for transport and still commitment fee without 80% probability of securing a job at the end. And they claim it is an Employability program for Pre and Post NYSC candidates. Rubbish!!!
but why should they be rubbishing Nigeria, its being implemented in KENYA,EGYPT, S/AFRICA and u hear success stories about internships and job posting, while is nigeria's be different. I also learnt dt d coordinator sent an arrogant mail to the selected participants tell them wht srd is and wht it is not......Tfare to ikoyi 4 28 days will more than 10k.wl they be feeding the participants as well?
house, how do we recognise sensible interview and unsensible ones. these people are fooling us because they know that we are desperatly in bereft of job, using their so called perfect strategies to exploit us of what we don't have. imagine the hall and the textbook-like- question papers you would aim that you attended a prosperous interview; and the guys who were not up to the caliber of some us in attendance that day were bulling us as if we were kids.chineke!they better join us here to search for a life time job instead of the exploitative career they engage themselves in. the worse they can do to anyone of us here is wasting our transport fare and time. they cannot get a penny from us. we are wise. are we not house?these kind of consultants are worse than estherbreakthrough. anyway, i pray that God will fight for us. we shall get good and comfortable job by His grace. these ilk of people will be shamed.psalm 70 and 71 will be useful for us. try it.
@ajoratiyani Gos is our strength. AGDC IS DUBIOUS
I am one of the candidates shortlisted and heaven knows i aint gonna pay a dime to those suckers. Imagine all the stress we went thru, the test ,the group interview and the oral interview. Those guys are heartless. This programme has already been paid 4 by samsung and IYF so why are they trying 2 be dubious? The truth is any good company would give you adequate on the job or class room training when they employ you so why pay 10k for same.
AGDC are EXECUTIVE CRIMINALS. EFCC take note.
God help Nigeria.
@ kenny, you are so funny. How do you think we wont know you are from AGDC. Guy do you think you are talkin to kids. How can you say the 10k commitment fee asked for is to ensure participants attend the programme. Ok if na like so, you guys have to make a promise that you wld refund the cash. Im i making sense? Some people cannot even pay for the transportation fee not to talk of paying a dubious fee for commitment. Where do you want a job seeker to get 10k from.
ONLY GOD GO JUDGE UNA.
Pls, did anyone get an invite from AGDC/SRC for MTN'S career spotlight programme billed for weds, 19th may, 2010
i wish u could SHARKSKIN dis people as the name implies.Look u people should come out straight cos any organisation Using you as a recruitment agencies must have paid u.
Secondly,telling us your dubious name KEHINDE AKINTOBI does not help matters here.Am one of your victims that have fallen prey in the past.
We need not pay any non refundable commitment fee to get a good job in this country.DIAGEO,MTN,ACCESS BANK,BAT,SHELL Etc adverts are on the net and there is no fee attached to it.
Serious rethink that????
Are you in the best position to judge whether Nigerians will appreciate a free program or not?
PS: Leap Africa organises a one-week training programme for youths monthly and participants are not required to pay a dime yet the room is always full to capacity because it is sponsored by Microsoft. Talk of Nigerians not appreciating a free program.
You have not yet been able to explain the =N=10,000 committment fee. Is it a refundable commitment fee? Was the program originally intended to help the shortlisted candidates chosen from the masses or Was it aimed at scaring these same candidates and thus replacing them with your own selected people on the basis that the initial participants could not fulfil the requirements for training; and by this I mean the =N=10,000 fee.
Afterall, the AGDC advert stated that the program is sponsored by Samsung and IYF.
Besides, whatever training that will be provided is general skills and self-development not practical hands-on-training in a specific role. It cannot therefore be likened as an internship.
Just imagine job seekers struggling to make ends meet, with less than =N=20,000 savings, coming all the way from Ikorodu or Badagry or Alagbado to Ikoyi to attend this program, paying the commitment fee, transport fee, without 100% assurrance of a job placement at the end. Their attendance alone for the program should suffice as adequate commitment, or don't you think so?

why give AGDC all these punch....why is it that samsung is not responding to all these allegations.
Someone should face the fact .....U gat to look inwards to launch to the next level ,AGDC/SAMSUNG REAL DREAM not withstanding!
@ ozone republic, i believe if samsung did not pay for the programme AGDC wld not make mention of their name.
Let me take a quick swipe at Kehinde. You definitely look like you are from AGDC and that pitches you against me. Not that we have any qualms but the fact that you are not being true to yourself and humanity. Who are the people that would take SRD graduates for internship??? How do you expects me to be committed to a programme that does not seem to have a clear direction??? Even if some coys are there somewhere, do the successful candidates not at least deserve to know them by now??? Why is there so much secrecy about the possibilities and outcome. If this is SRD five, hoe come we dont get to see past graduates or did AGDC compel them to swear to secrecy??? Are Nigerians now so callous to the point of playing with something that could change their lives as you make the SRD seem. You guys know it is not worth it and people will get tired at some point, so you want to tie them down. No be me oh. You cant cage me cos am AIR.
I beg my guy, the whole thing is a big sham. And in case they dont know not all who came are actually unemployed or unemployable. So, not so many are desperate. So,expect a few to pay bt am so sure its gonna be very few.
