Not only in HR.I have seen a job posting requiring 5yrs experience and pay is #80,000 for graduate.I couldn't help but laugh.But this is the reality we see day.Graduate are being paid #40k. Take away transport and feeding what is left. Charity work

I can relate to this.I once went for an interview for an HR Manager role and spent a considerable amount on Uber to get there. To my surprise, when I met with the CEO, they informed me that their budget for the role was only between ₦130,000 to ₦150,000. I was so dumbfounded that I couldn’t even find the words to respond. All I could think about was how much I had spent on Uber and how much nice it would have been if I had used that money to buy myself a box of pizza instead.

Well, I don't know where all of you live and work, but I would LOVE to make $150k. Where I am, once people get those jobs, they don't leave. I have two HR certifications, an MBA, and over 25 years of experience. So many ads for HR Managers where I am are only showing $75k and less. It's insane. One is paying $150k, but they need international experience AND the person has to run the ISO9001 program! WHAT? Crazy! That is two completely separate roles, and the HR position alone with international work is not worth the $150k.

🤣 🤣 🤣 the guns have been fired but I think in the wrong directioAwele Daviesies I have seen Engineering Project Manager position with salary in the range of N150K requiring 5 years experience. Guess what? A recruiter like you was in-charge of the recruitment process. My people will say "When a finger touches oil, all other fingers must be affected."

I think people love titles a lot so they crave this. You see 3 years experienced individual called Manager

Well, I think we most times get it wrong when it comes to alloting titles to a role. Does big title comes along with big salary or size of the company?We may need to remind ourselves the definition of a manager

See how the economy has made 150k look like 15k. So sad to see how bad the naira has depreciated. My advise though, if you're desperate, and you've weighed your options (transportation, feeding, etc), take it oh! Half bread is better than puff puff.

When supply is significantly higher than demand, naturally price will go down.The sort of things we see these days makes one wonder if there's truly a standard. 🤦🏾

I once applied for a job as a manager since the pay was 120,000. Even with no experience, I felt confident because I feel no qualified person will apply for the job.However, I during the interview, I was told I'm not qualified for the role.
