Employable People's Forum

It is no longer news that there is a high level of unemployment in Nigeria. The irony right now is the fact there are so many vacancies in many companies also. So, what exactly is the problem? Why is it so difficult for job seekers to find jobs, and at the same time it is difficult for employers to fill their vacant positions? We want to use this medium to achieve the following:

• Discover the reasons why employable people are finding it hard to find jobs
• Discover the reasons why employers are finding it difficult to fill vacant positions
• Develop strategies to bridge the gap between potential employees and employers
• Help job seekers to find the right jobs, free of charge
• Help interested unemployed people to start their own businesses free of charge
• Help employed people who are unhappy with their jobs to find out why and make necessary adjustments
• Provide a forum for volunteers (i.e. employed people and business owners) to participate towards achieveing the above objectives
