Me to fuhad: NYSC is for students (undergraduate students) after they have completed their 4 or more years in the university, then u go for NYSC for a year (like an internship with 3 weeks `military like training’)
If you want to apply for Nigeria visa (from uk or anywhere else), u just need to submit some documents and get the stamp. But the visa application from Nigeria as a Nigerian to uk or others is hard hard.
Asking for days off is begging. I literally had to bargain with my supervisor to go on the first extended vacation I’ve taken since getting hired 3 years ago. They asked me if I could change my trip dates since they will be out. It’s a family trip, so the bargain becomes shortening the trip so I can still go 😩
This was why so many 90s babies spent the days in their parents’ cars, waiting for them to be off work. You had two toys, a sibling, and your imagination. Boredom was simply a fact of life with no reason for negotiation or complaint. You will never see that in today’s children.
What feels close to begging is being on your own and some guy saying he's going to send you something or get you something and now your interested and asking him where is it
Nysc is a year program and we camp for one month basically 3 weeks. And it is compulsory for every nigerian graduate who wishes to work in Nigeria. Yeah we get paid minimum wage from government also.
2:39 You're saying Yes cuz you're scared! Omggg why was this my energy at every interview, at every job, even after I was accepted? Just desperate. That's why my schedules were trash. Accepting whatever they told me needed to be worked. Lol
I actually appreciate hearing about how you all had NO money and just made it happen.. respect the grind and definitely respect that you don't forget where you came from!
Visa applications- why you are visiting the country, which other countries you have visited, your education history sometimes, host information, bank statements, return ticket, health insurance, sometimes marriage certificate if you claim you are married.
@@Cajun_Seasoning what? My point is that if you can afford to fly from the UK to Miami and go to the club....you aren't poor by any stretch of the imagination...they don't know what real poor is
@@TJ-fu5kr if you've watched them enough you'd know they struggled in their uni days financially. You literally don't know them bruh, who are you to say someone doesn't know poverty just because they're not currently poor.
I believe this, our recruiters always acted like they were doing a service being first pass on the applicants but I call 🧢 with what they’d let through sometimes, so you know they’re barely reading the CV much less the cover letter. That said, me as the actual hiring manager for the position, I have def let candidates in the door because of their letter. So I’d say be honest with yourself if you know your CV is a stretch or has what could be a 🚩you should take the extra 15 mins to provide a story or be prepared to get 🗑️

Getting a visa in Australia is tough but don't be put off by it. What they are referring to when they say "working in the fields", is that to get a 2nd (or 3rd) year working holiday visa extension in Australia, applicants need to do 3 months of work in farming, fishing or construction in a rural area. It's designed to provide assistance to rural areas who struggle to attract workers due to remoteness. Most backpackers obviously would prefer not to do it but there are many stories of people enjoying their time working in great unique places. This rule is changing for British backpackers as of July 1 this year though - they removed the working requirement for visa extensions.
Why do u wanna go there tho I’m Aussie myself there’s nothing good about the country just a expensive place to live last Sunday I went to get 2 kebabs with a family member of mine and I didn’t even deliver Uber I went to go get some and I paid 33$ for just 2 kebabs the country has a problem with tax cuts and the leader sucks
Visa is another level, you’ve got to convince a middle aged man that your only going to sight see or visit family and go back home, because u have 15367482 things or reasons for you to be back home and on top of that, show hella money just so they know you can afford to visit and do the things u said u we’re gonna do
I like how so many of these are about jobs. And things that companies say they give you and you’re entitled to or you don’t have to do AND YET…wow haha
The Australia thing is real. My son studied abroad in Sydney for 6 months and wanted to work. Not only did he get the treatment you mentioned, they were going to take damn near his whole check for the “1st 6 months”. 😐
Fuhad and James (and others) , if you have not already, please give your lives to Christ 💝. I love you both (and Rem and Ellis and the rest of your crew) so much and would love to see you lot in Heaven making podcasts on clouds, giggling and making us laugh as usual🥰 Love.
10:00 bro do I just not have shame? Idgaf lol I text how I talk, enter every pause if I were speaking so you’ll get like 4 messages at one time from me. I also will ask if they still plan to hang out bc I don’t wanna double book 😅😅😅
Coverletters in my field (in DK) is super important. I work with kids age 0-3 and its not just education that counts. We would never interview someone without an idea of their values and personal strengths. Still feels like begging tho 😂😂

James every 30 seconds: "I remember..."
"Are you still coming" took my soul.
😂
I know you were born here! You were born here right 🤣🤣🤣
"You were born here innit?" 😂😂
After the socks and shoelaces story it makes me so proud for James that he had a idea that turned out to be great for him and his best friend
Right! He legit makes me proud of their success 👏🏼
❤❤😊❤😊😊 2:52
The “you’re saying yes cause you’re scared” - literally, and applicable to most situations when you have anxiety😂
"Are you still coming?"

Your boy over here is dyslexic, I thought you were talking about NSYNC like the boy band rofl. I was confused.
You mean graduates not undergraduates
"Are you still coming?" Is the story of my life and 99.9% of the time, they're not coming 🫠
“Please, ‘innit” is a phrase!!!!!!

Glad James is a nice employer 🤣🤣

Nope. My pto notice means i wont be there. Plan accordingly.
Definitely not acceptable. They’re getting salary they can cut their own time short.
“I begged…” 😂
Are you still coming is the equivalent to having to ask if we are still on for tonight. That is a killer to the soul.
What feels close to begging is being on your own and some guy saying he's going to send you something or get you something and now your interested and asking him where is it
😂 good girl if I have to ask or wonder where it is, I'm Charging it😂
This... Like don't make unprovoked promises and don't come through
I hear you loud and clear! I hate people making promises that they don’t keep cos once you’ve said it; I’m relying on it like it’s a fact!
Hold on to those, "I remember when..." moments. These moments tend to keep us humble and give us strength. Thanks for sharing the journey.

Hello, guys. Please consider an episode where you all share pics of yourselves as youths and in university.
I actually appreciate hearing about how you all had NO money and just made it happen.. respect the grind and definitely respect that you don't forget where you came from!
"Please innit" just sent me
At 1:46 I heard "sweetheart" instead of "Fuhad". It tracked and didn't surprise me but the lack of reaction made me rewatch it.
I was having the worst day ever and tought I wouldn’t laugh today
You guys saved me again!!
Thank you for always cheering me up❤❤

Are you looking at me because you thought I……😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I love how real James is and how he isn't embarrassed abt his past self
James being able to laugh about it later shows some real growth
These man love saying they were poor... while telling stories about them clubbing in Miami. You man really don't know 😂

its almost like you grow up and better your financial situation like the adult you are

Am i the only person who doesn't have a problem double texting? Depends on the person ofc 😂

NYSC is a year not a month. It's 3 weeks military service then the rest is in a city you did not study in ideally.
