Jourbalist and editor, Betty Irabor has shared her experience with a Nigerian job seeker who has two degrees but jobless and broke.
According to a tweet she shared, the guy reached out to her for help which she obliged to by referring him to her HR. She however kept her identity private.
To her surprise, when the HR contacted the guy, he declined invitation for the interview.
