We all know most Nigerian Schools are Schools for Theories and not Practicals....
as a computer science graduate u stand the chance of getting a VERY GOOD JOB.
the only thing you need to do is to write as many professional exams as you can write and also be ready to develop yourself practical wise. The fact that you had a 3rd doesnt mean you are not better than those that had 2.1 or 2.2.
We are in the IT world and u stand the great chance of being one of the best computer Gurus in this country.
My dear dont give up and strive on ok?
Good Luck in all your Endevours!!!!

God is the author and finisher of everything. you can. what matter is what u have upstairs is not what one have. anything can make one not get what he targeted. lecturers and stress is another probs while in school b/c theycan frustrate too. ;D :-*

You are not alone. I got a 3rd class in english studies and no job yet,every add is for 2.1 or 2.2

B.SC(THIRD CLASS)Education accounting,do l have a chance of getting a good job.

My dear, u need not worry. Only thing u need to do is to have dat desire and dreams that ur grade can not be a barrier to ur making it in life. I'm a clear example of a 3rd class graduate but of Economics. You know wat, I'm presently working in a stock broking coy as an admin officer. Also, presently, i enrolled a pgd in University of Abuja, resently I got a better offer with an official car and driver attached to it. You see, IT IS NOT THE DEGREE BUT GOD'S DECREE. Believe in ur self and ur capabilities. Wat u r worth is more than wat ur certificate can fetch 4 u. Tanx and remain forever blessed. ;)

@ all 3rd class graduates,

Try and start with a small firm with small pay and u can take some professional exams, as this will strengthen your CV and experience which can help u to get a bigger job.

cheers.

Have you ever heard that Wole Syinka made 3rd class in English Language before he left for England where he did the same course and made 1st class in the same course?

Relax, but let the man in you arise and you will get the best. Just take some steps of faith and you will see how God will turn you into a reference point in your generation. It is well with you.

Just belive God u will make it, after all, all those with better results have not all got jobs, while so many with pooor results are working. However, i want to give a word of advice to undergraduates in this house, in the book "rich da poor dad" the rich dad advised his son to go to school so that he can employ people,( no emphsis), but the poor dad advised his son to go to school, study hard, so that he can be employed, ( emphasis on study hard). in Nigerian context, the only way you can show that you have studied hard is by coming out with a good result. this is very important especially in this era when employers are looking for ways of disqualifying job seekers. i know u will make it if you choose to. God will help you, Amen.

laurelc
, i hope u will help me out too. i read economics though with a second class upper. i just need a job desparately. just help and get me informed.

Gimbs4life,

Am not sure of the address for Alliance francais in Ibadan but there's a centre where they teach you how to speak French, Russia, German.. etc. its adjacent to BCOS, Bashorun, i:e after BCOS by the left if you're coming from Idi-ape, you can get Alliance francaise address from there.

cheers.

This issue of 3rd class is rather unfortunate.It has created a discriminatory policy of screening out potentially gifted and creative applicants from progressing with their lives.My advise for the recruiting/recruitment agencies is to set aptitude/qualifying test to all classes of graduates,with the understanding that the affected graduates will be shortlisted based on their test performance .And on the day of the interview, their certificates can only be screened just to certify that they actually attended the schools they claimed to have gotten their qualifications. The various Univesities should strive to initiate a policy of classlessness in their standard of operations since most students are saddled with different inherent limitations ranging from poverty, nervousness, restlessness,insecurity, peerpressure ,immaturity, arrogance,stingingness in information delivery,lecturers' sarcism and indifference, improper research, satisfying the parental wishes, reading a course you you dont love improper orientation programmes which is carried from the secondary schools to the university and most painfully; The near total lack of instilling the practical entrepreneuric spirit in the live of the student.
There is no student that is really dull except for peple with psychological problems. Its just that most of them are reading courses which they do not have a passion for and they choose to imitate their peers just to follow the crowd or obey their overbearing parents.
I am a 3rd class Ecostat graduate of Uniben. And I have passed every aptitude test that I have been given the opportunity to write,but my certificate had had a way of limiting me. I have always been a dogged fighter and the impending fear that I am just too good to be employed had created this discriminatory method of using the quality of my PAPER to screen me off. The banks are not even helping matters: when you even initiate the idea of self-employment which is bound to attract capital,they will come up with all rejection techniques including the fact that you are not a practising businessman ,just a mere beginner.
Though if the government have been sincere,they should have initiated a comulsory Loan scheme for all NYSC graduates , at least with the proceeds from the loots and oil windfall this should not have been too difficult to realize. The Technical aids corps ought have been restructured to accomodate NYSC graduates since there are shortages of manpower in many African ,SouthAmerican and Asian countries who have an understanding aggreement with Nigeria, but the government is Nepotising the whole system either by selling the opportunity or by giving it to their family members. Needless for me to talk about the Federal Character Commission which only emphasizes the quota system.
I am a freelance writer,a gifted business negotiator,amateur singer[no real performance], a freelance consellor[though not a certified one], a passionate teacher, a relationship adviser. All these are attributes God has given ,but I have had little or no opportunity to translate them to reality because our system has emphasized this negative policy of paper qualification. And I know of so many people with similar attributes who have chanelled theirs toward criminality,hence we talk 419ers and the likes
What I feel is a remedy to this 3rd
class question is that graduates should identify their area of zealous interests, learn everything they can about it,pray about it and then locate an area which heavily demands for it and supply it.This is the initiative I have taken and it has been fruitful. That is the only way of out this quagmire. And you will later discover that as you beging to make money from it, you will be directly or indirectly creating contacts that give you the opportunities you have been longing for
Thanks

I have friends working in these companys/organisation. Virgin Nigeria, EcoBank, Crest tech(oil serviving company), Celtel, PNN(telecoms solution company) etc. They all have something in common, they are all 3rd class graduates, they are good at what they do, they are relentless and hard working and I can tell you they are been paid well. Mind you, they all got their jobs without any insider assitanse or godfather/mother. You can also do it if you believe.

CEDERBOI could you please tell me where alliance francaise is located in Lagos

The only person that can stop you from making it in life is YOU. Guy it is not a matter of your degree but God's decree. All the same try and develop yourself more by acquiring extra qualification like cisco and other and i believe with God being on ourside we will all make.

Apart from the alliance francais in Badagry, is there any one within Lagos were one can obtain a diploma in french. Please anybody with useful information should just give me a line with this add [email protected]

All your contributions are immensely wonderful.I would like to specially salute what i see as the 'giant' in Salmac and the genius in Metroguy! I believe with these contributions all the 3rd class holders will not give up but rather be fired up and worked up towards success!

Hi Senorie, U ve read it all. I want to use this medium to appreciate people like OCSAM and LAURELC for their respective responses to this issue, u are truly sources of encouragement, may ur lights never deem.

Senorie, these are fellow humans like u and i, they have spoken wisely, and acknowledged the Supreme Being's Might. Do not be left out of the testimony, your degree is not God's decree upon you, believe in the report of God on ur life. Remember, He makes ways where there seem to be no way. Acknowledge that you need His help, then relax and keep singing His praises, and He'll move you to an incredible position in life. Beyond the skies is ur limit bro. Keep your head up in God.

It is only on two conditions that you may never be able to get a job.
These are the conditions;

• If GOD cease to be GOD.
• 
  
  
• If you lose hope in yourself.

For as long as these two conditions remain constant, the Sky is your starting point.
