Some graduate at 22 and at 32 he or she would have had 9 years experience, provided he/she got job immediately after youth service.

And you disenfranchise others? Will that fair? Let's always come with equity.

why work for an organization that can't regulate electricity nor improve electricity generation and supply in Nigeria?

of what use is NERC in the first place? discos have been ripping consumers off their hard earned money while NERC officials looks away.

Both NERC, Minister of power and Buhari should fvck off, they can give the position to politicians and their children.

Must your work in nerc Its an organization's prerogative to get the best working hands. Its not a charity event.

in this ASUU Nigeria or where?

be arguing there, people who went to schools where there were no strikes graduated at 21-23, the ones who got top grades were immediately recruited and have been working for 9 years. They only want 1 person, there are hundreds of people that meet the requiremtns, and they will choose 1.

I am not saying it is fair or not but that is the reality!!! There are people out there (hundreds) that meet the requirements and they are only looking for 1.

Why are you helping them validate the fraud? You know the positions are already filled and they just need you the son of a nobody to send in applications to make it seem like it was a legit process. If nobody sends applications to these ruse govt job openings, it goes a long way in making a statement. But no, you folks are all expecting a miracle, each person is hoping to be the lucky or divinely favoured one, thereby making the facade easier to continue by the corrupt political elites

It doesn't hurt to apply but those roles are probably already filled, it's just a subtle way to say fvxk off.

They are trying to recruit the best, you are the ones who complain about inept imbeciles in government. A person who graduates at 21-23 should have 9 years experience by 32.

Age discrimination should be illegal, just like gender discrimination. Countries like South Africa, US, UK etc have laws against age discrimination.

For a country with a high population and a very competitive labor market, people should be evaluated on the basis of their competence and not their age

Asiwaju is currently in Egypt studying the modalities to repositioning NERC. NERC has been bastardized.
All applicants in this sector should be hopeful.

Asiwaju Peter Adekunle Obi will fix this sector.
He remains the chief mechanic for the job.

I no understand you my brother... Your comment dey do me two- two. Are you Obi-dient or not? Are you for us or against us?

Talk straight and stop going through the corners cheesy grin

9 years experience and 32 age limit
it's for children of big men that attend private universities and complete youth service at age 20 or 21 with work waiting for them.
This country is a fraud.

clearly you are not qualified for the job. if you are a graduate and you actually got a quality education, you will realize that if you have 9 years experience you will be at least 30. There is nothing illegal is asking for a certain number of years of experience.


Young Nigerians should realise no one owes you a job and an employer has a right to dictate the requirements for any position he wants to recruit. The employer knows the role and what qualifications/experience will satisfy the role.

It is incumbent on young Nigerians to know the job market is very competitive, you are competing with people who studied abroad that graduated at 20-23 and went straight to work. It is up to you to make sure you dont waste your youth....again no one owes you a job!!!

I just see this on one of the opened positions in the NERC recruitment exercise, these guys are not serious or they just don't want anyone to apply, like they already have someone for the job.

How can someone who is 30-32 years have 9 years working experience in Nigeria?

I don't know shaa.

They are basically looking for graduates from foreign or private universities. They are the only ones who can meet this requirement. You’d need to graduate at the age of 20, do your national service and start work immediately in finance to meet the minimum age requirement. Is this possible when you factor in strikes?

Dont be annoyed but all that one is story. Now you understand the impact of bad governments in your lives and future. I dont mean to sound harsh or brutal but welcome to the real world!!! Nobody is going to care about your personal circumstances, an employer needs a graduate with 9 years experience aged 30-32, hundreds will apply, your application will most likely never be looked at because once they see your age or years of experience they will discard it and if it is a digital application and they are using HR software, the software will discard your application and not shortlist it. it is only if they dont have applicants that they will start to look therough those who dont meet the requirements but in a country where there are no jobs, that is unlikely...... thats the reality of recruitment and the job market. So instead of complaining, try and make up for your deficiencies, nobody cares it it was your fault or not. You dont meet the requirements, you dont meet the requirements.

i am not being insensitive, i am telling you the hard realities of life!!! You seem to have a sense of entitlement.
seyigiggle: 4:20pm On Jun 16, 2022
this is very possible, but limited

by the time i clocked 32, i already had 11years working experience.

started working at the age of 21 with ND and continued my education while working.

Now you youth are realizing the damage succesive bad governments do to your futures and why it is important to vote good leaders not tribe or religion! ASUU has been on strike, youths are not protesting, university wants to raise fees, you protest. When they get tp 34, they will apply for job reuiring 9 years experience and they wont get it because thousands of their comtemporaries who went fee paying universities without strikes are ahead of them because they graduated when normal people should graduate.

If any1 has any sense of entitlement that's u... Well I don't blame u at all....I know the reality but the truth is the truth..... Its crazy to ask for such requirements knowing the situation in Nigeria..... I doubt any sane climb puts age requirements as a means to filter down applicants. God Da and we go make am sooner rather than later... with or without white color jobs very legally..... DONT BE INSENSITIVE... same way it was easy to climb up same way its easy to fall down...
