Be Sincere!! Does A Masters Degree Guarantee Jobs?
Since growing up I have always been accustomed to the idea of double up my degree.
Not like it’s a bad thing but what purpose does it serve to run a master or Ph.D. program in the long run.
My Dad is always telling me to do one program here and there.
It gets tiring honestly as I don’t consider myself an academic per say and I would only put in the effort when I see something is absolutely necessary.
A cousin of mine once went to the UK for her masters, previously working at a brewery.
She told me that going for this program would guarantee her an upgrade in department level
Has anyone here got any similar experiences, share your story or those you know of.
Having your master degree or phd doesn’t mean you have a job but the knowledge of it can make you establish a good business and live.a better life.
Thank you very much
It depends on you, having degree not guarantee good job.
Hum, for where, for this country or another one, ummm,
Read what she said again..I think you misunderstood her
In this Nigeria
Don’t ever relax ur mind in that because it may not work
Well most person at their work place they are asked to further inoder to get a promotion….I mean my dad was asked to further for this
In a country like nigeria answer is Capital NO
No but personal qualities, discipline, Altitude, respect, manner of association or relating with people and the Help of God. Because I know a lot of people but have good job bcos they posses good personal qualities with God on their side as well
Hmm…I love this nice perspective
Even Phd did not guarantee someone for a job in this Nigeria. Education will only expose and give someone say in his/her community
Hmm..I wld love to disagree with you…because I believe it gives you an edge over others that don’t have
Your skill lies in your hands
it depends..but in Nigeria is a no no
It depends on the person
It depends on you, having degree not guarantee good job.
Let just do what we know how to do
Expecially as a man let work hard
On a country like Nigeria,it NO,education make you more enlighten
There are so many graduate with masters without Job so I don’t think it is the solution but with God, Good personal qualities and preparedness
It doesn’t ooo
Especially not in Nigeria
So have seen alot of views above..ND not 1 was really satisfying…well I would say being a PhD holder does not guarantee a job…but is 1 of those things u need to get a job alongside knowledge (you go to school doesn’t mean u have d knowledge),character ND a whole lot of others.. experience too does matter…but I wld say it actually gives you an edge over all those persons without a PhD…ND yes in most institutions…you u get promoted according to your degree
True, I have seen instances where it really paid to have masters
Exactly why we must not override it
It depand on you
If I may ask in what way
Having your master degree does not guarantee you a job,it depends on your character, and your manners of approach
Having a degrees thus not guarantee you any job in this Nigeria.
People are outside there with many degrees, without job.
It’s good to have a master’s degree
Just that our country is our country
Getting job in Nigeria is conection.
Having a degree is good but the way this world is going one need to have a creative mind set
I don’t think so, because the situation of things in our country now is nothing to write home. So it’s better to get involve in any trade.
Not Here in Nigeria…..Many people with degrees end up as security guards ….we don’t value our certificates
Not in Nigerian
In as much as it pays to have a masters degree, it doesn’t come easy. And for most people who have it do not have good jobs to show for it. Do whatever appeals to you.
Well Grace is what speaks for an individual. Not your education or illiteracy. Grace just grace
Just do whatever that appeals to you
To an extent it does upgrade one’s CV.
It doesn’t oo.. As far as we dey for nija
Education doesn’t guarantee a job rather it expose you and give you insight on how to manage your business even create employment for people.
