wish to leave Nigeria? |
Let us face it. Nigerian
universities are graduating more and more students without the economic ability
to cater for them in terms of jobs.
This has led to a glut in
labor and a scarcity in jobs. As such, many people are now considering moving
to other climes in order to search for succor.
While this is not a bad thing
in itself, the sad part of the matter is that many Nigerians just go ahead to
find jobs without the necessary skills required and do it in the name of
“searching for greener pastures”
They also don’t more
importantly know which countries to search for jobs in and how to get their
work permits without stress.
This has given rise to the use
of fraudulent agents who make money at every opportunity and give our people
jobs that they are over qualified for.
In order to avoid this, you
have to make sure that you use the knowledge afforded you by use of the
internet to search out the immigration processes and procedures of the country
you intend going to before you even apply for the job.
That way, you will know if the
country is Nigerian friendly or not. However to ease your stress, the following
list serves as a guide for the kinds of countries that give work permits easily
to Nigerians:

Steps to Start a Travel Agency in Nigeria
1. Canada
This is one of the easiest
places to get work permits. The only thing here however is to follow the system
that has been put in place by the Canadian government.
Most of the Canadian skilled
workers program with the exception of the region of Quebec are similar. In
fact, the federal program for skilled workers assessment and immigration can
indeed be completed without any help from any agent or middleman.
It is just that Nigerians as a
whole always feel better when somebody wants to assist them and make them to
part with money when something can be done with ordinary COMMON SENSE.
2. Australia
Being a member of the British
Commonwealth and one of the few English speaking countries in Asia, Australia
also has a relatively unbiased system when it comes to migration.
The only thing here however is
that you must FOLLOW the rules otherwise it won’t count at the end of the day. Their
skilled and unskilled worker migration program is very simple to adhere to but
again Nigerians who don’t like to read allow others to do the reading for them
which further complicates things from the get go.
That being said, Australia is
a great place for Nigerian migrants who contribute in their own way to the
local economy. And being an English speaking country also makes it quite easy
for integration once you’ve landed.

3. United Arab Emirates
Many things have been said
about the difficulty of getting a work visa in this tiny but prosperous nation.
The truth is that you can do everything from your bedroom without having to
step out of the front door when applying for work here.
The truth is that the only
things you may have to stress yourself to get would be the attestations from
the ministry of education of your certificates and transcripts.
However apart from that, the
United Arab Emirates is a very accommodating place for Nigerians who wish to
work there. Note that residency is usually for three years and after that it is
subject to renewal.
If you have a skill that is
needed by the companies there, you can apply for work from the comfort of your
home. You’re entitled to thirty days leave every year and one plane ticket to
and from the United Arab Emirates.
Your working ours are also
stipulated by contract and you also stand the chance to improve yourself as the
country is a forward looking one. You can use your work experience here to get
employment ANYWHERE else.
4. Republic of Ireland
This country offers excellent
study and work opportunity for anyone who truly wishes to reap the benefits of
staying in the European Union and after five years of residency, you’re
eligible for citizenship.
This country is English
speaking and if you’re able to get employment with any company there, then you
can get into the system.
It is even getting better for
prospective applicants due to the fact that Britain is leaving the European
Union (that is Brexit).
As
such, majority of the international businesses and conglomerates are already
rushing to Ireland to set up shop. This of course presents a unique opportunity
for the smart Nigerian to be able to apply for and get a job with such
organizations. If you don’t know how, just use linked in (linkedin.com).
5. Germany
Germany is the strongest
economy in the European Union. It is also one of the easiest places to visit
apart from the shengen visa arrangements.
There are many things that a
Nigerian can indeed apply for in terms of employment. The only thing you would
have to consider when looking at a country like Germany is the fact that you do
not speak their language.
That hurdle is easily
rectifiable as learning German is very easy. You just have to concentrate and
get the language right! Getting a work permit to Germany is easy once you get
an employment contract with a company over there.
From there on, you just have
to fulfil minimal requirements before you are now issued your visa. It is
worthy of note to mention here that most Nigerians do not even understand that
Germany has one of the best Labor laws in the world and it is considered to be
extremely immigration friendly. This of course presents a unique opportunity to
the discerning Nigerian.

6. New Zealand
This is a small English
speaking country off the Australian coast. Once you are able to get employment
there from a place even as far as Nigeria, it is indeed possible to maintain
your residency status there.
The aim of course is to get
there first! New Zealand is also a member of the Commonwealth of Nations who
swear allegiance to the queen as the head of state. If you’re highly
technically skilled you can indeed immigrate easily to New Zealand without
stress from Nigeria.
Nigerians have many options
through which they may be able to get the required work visas without the
hassles that many people often complain about.
The key to getting these kinds
of hassle free work permits is to understand what you’re applying for and to
FOLLOW the rules without due recourse to fraud or cheating.
