People are really trying. Five fvcking years of searching for a job after five years in the university, plus a year of service That's eleven years, all because you want to work for someone.

Damn! What exactly inspires this kind of patience?

How about learning skills? Hair dressing, tailoring, etc.

Must graduates get employed before they eat or deal with their responsibilities?

The truth remains that pride is the reason why most graduates in Nigeria are struggling. Until we start hustling like we don't have certificate, it will be difficult to make it.

Never say Never....

the time every message I get I anticipate it's from one of the places I applied to only to be disappointed with mobile networks messages and GNLD guys

Please also appreciate the guy(s) that has been taking your bills for this long.

4000 applications? And she couldn't even think of a good business idea to set herself up and become her own boss.

Dumb-ass.

That's work experience on its own.

Shame no catch you sef

If na her papa/mama nko?

who was counting?

Congrats.

That's the spirit, keep pushing it... That's the spirit behind hustlers

Five years no be joke, I really hope the pay is worth it....if not na five wasted yrs be that oh. Congrats to her

Be self employed. The effort used in sending thousands of applications could be used in bettering yourself and setting yourself up.

Just imagine the resources you've wasted. Not to mention the number of disappointments you've faced.

And there's no guarantee that you'll like the job or last one year there.

My opinion, before some kid rushes to quote me.

She was even counting it.

That's Nigeria for you.

We the youths are our greatest problem we have, I mean, how can one have the time and strength of character to apply for thousands of jobs in so many years? What is wrong with learning a skill in those period that will surely guarantee you financial freedom.

Congratulations, there is nothing like persistence.

You are one to talk,ain't you?
Kettle calling the pot black

Na for naija I doubt where dey 400 job u fit apply for but in develop country yes

Wasted years! While waiting why can't she find a side hustle or learn a skill that can put her on her feet instead of dying to be someone employee

As somebody above me has said, pride is the problem of most graduates

#kebbolistic

Dem dey count that kind thing

Una wey say she suppose start business, una no go ask for "something in return" if she approached you for capital?

Does this one know what 4,000 means?

All these embellished testimonies.

Money is not the most important item in starting a business. Money is paper value.

The invisible aspect of a business is the experience, expertise and knowledge of the entrepreneur. That is what will keep a business going.

Congratulations to her though!
