But that should never be the case…a good system should be able to accommodate everybody,ata ule jamaa amesomea Ant science.
I have a simple advice, ukiwa graduate please try to minimise offering services/advise in your speciality for FREE; unless it’s another area you are not trained on. Start learning the art of asking for money for your knowledge.
Ndo maana ukaitosha 10k kuundia jaamaa wetu batt
Where is that clip for applicants to Tusky’s internship program?
hehehe you’re very right
Largely correct…but do you think Uhuru or Rao are good leaders? Do you think the guys who won the primaries are good leaders?
Kenya railways tried that shit once. Imefika place hata parastatal inajaribu ku profit from hii situation
And a mismatch between what the Universities are churning out and the what the job market requires.
That’s a cliche by now. Most graduates will easily do jobs across departments with little training. Engineers have no problem working in banking or insurance etc…
What we see are excuses from an inefficient system meant to benefit only a few lucky.
This is an excuse that has been flogged to death. Every company in every industry has specific demands and it’s very arrogant how Kenyan employers expect mtu atoke tu university and instantly anatupwa into the middle of a place with very specific systems, software etc. and that person is supposed to immediately know how things are. Everybody wants to profit but no one wants to put in the time unless of course the graduate is someone related to them in which case Richie from the IT dept or Osogo at the assembly line will be assigned to show the young man/lady around and show them how things work. Do we ever stop to think why the multinationals and many other orgs give probation periods or trainings or whatever ama we just assume they have money to burn? While it’s true that graduates maybe a little undercooked this is not as big a problem as we’ve been trying to make it look like. This is like saying there are vacancies but no suitable graduates to employ because whoever is out there is undercooked. o_O
That i dont agree with you, most jobs infact all jobs require onjob training to be able to do what it entails university just prepares one for the onjob training.
tell me; fresh from university could you design and supervise a road or water project without any guidance / training ??
Kabisa, I used to fix machines for free back then and realised that I was not making use of my knowledge. I have cultivated a culture of billing for services. How? my doctor requests for consultation fees, my mechanic always need money to fix small problems, teacher charges for tuition, hata mganga anataka kakitu, lawyer – hata usiseme, lasima ulipe kitu ndio uhamishwe nyumba, hata ule mtu wa takataka tunamlipa kila mwezi, na sportpesa pia lazima uwekelee. Nikajiuliza kwa nini mimi nifunze mtu “how to insert a chart in a powerpoint presentation” na nisiulize ka thao!
With the current job crisis,they know there is always someone willing to do more for less
Last year nilifuta ng’ombe mbili juu ya kucheza na kazi. Niggas are all over complaining about unemployment but when given an opportunity they just shit on it. They work like you forced them out of their houses at gunpoint to come to work. It’s just not those two, upto 12 people I’ve interacted with who have that “hii kazi ni ya kushikilia tu as I wait for something better” attitude. At first I paid those two ng’ombes slightly more than the average thinking they would be motivated to work harder, but shock on me, they interpreted it to mean I was naive. After firing them I did the work they’d been doing alone for three months before looking for someone else. Siku hizi sibembelezi. Ukianza ushenzi hivi ata hakuna warning, I fire you on the spot. Zile za “Stop whatever you’re doing and gerrout. You’re fired.”
Seriously, I don’t have statistics to back this up, but in Kenya I’d estimate only 1 in 10,000 people is passionate about their work.
Hata kama bana some guys will offer you very bad pay na ukijaribu ku negotiate wanakuambia unajua hakuna kazi.
Mimi nimewacha kuchukua bad pay wacha ni hustle huku kwa freelancing niumie juu najua i give my all in any assignment so nikiunda jina kazi zitakuja
Unafanya nini nije nitafute kazi kwako. Nitakupea guarantee ya mwezi ya kwanza kama sitaperform hata usinilipe
that is a story of giants…civil engs are highly sought after and are paid in excess of 200k. Im in the industry so I know.
Nimerudi kutoka sabbatical and this is the shit I get?
NIGGAS, ARE YOU SERIOUS? ARE YOU SO STUPID - LIKE NIGGAS EVERY WHERE - THAT YOU CAN’T EVEN MAKE A CORRECT DIAGNOSIS OF WHAT AILS YOU? KWANI NI AKILI HAMNA AMA NI NINI, NYINYI WATU WEUSI?
I have told you again and and again - no developing economy can create 1 million jobs a year. That’s the number of kids entering the workforce EACH YEAR. Last year, 960,000 sat for KCPE exams. You are simply breeding like rats!
And no, it is not that Ugandans or whoever are better off. That’s just BS, otherwise Ugandan, TZ and Rwandan beggars would not be flocking here. It’s just that their data collection is shittier.
And exactly what should the gavament be doing about the million brats you sire each year? Every report by the IMF and the World Bank has ranked Kenya as a very business-friendly country. Over the last year alone hundreds of Western comanies are making Nairobi their regional HQs. Loans are relatively cheap but what do most of you do with them? Buy cheap second-hand Toyotas and drink the rest.
Then you go make a random woman pregnant and come here complainng how the gavament is not creating jobs for the youth, as if anybody owes you anything. CREATE YOUR OWN FERKING JOB FOR A START! AND STOP BREEDING LIKE RATS! And you won’t do that by whining and whinging like a 13-year old on periods, you Black bag of shit. DO SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR OWN FERKING CONDITION!
Or secede!
ukoloni mamboleo takataka, we are suffering as youths because of greddy 2 families. its time we say no more facing mt. kenya or facing l.victoria.
Not unless wewe ni a senior eng uko dunia ingine. Na kama wewe ni senior eng na 200k uko very much underpaid
