Social media users have expressed shock and awe as a man disclosed that his first job came with a salary package of N263k per day.
Sharing how it happened on Linkedln, Dr Akanimo Odon explained that he was writing his PhD thesis at that time when his supervisor directed him to forward a mail to the VP of a company he identified as BG Group.

He was said to have been invited for a meeting in the UK by the said VP. Akanimo said the meeting turned out to be an interview and was immediately offered the job despite not having any work experience as he was still a student.
Akanimo said he nearly collapsed when he learnt of his salary.
"When the call came later to tell me my first ever salary, and the lady said '500 pounds a day’- I think I collapsed especially cos I converted it to Naira."
"I had been a student all my life up till then and so why would an international company offer a student with no ‘work experience’ such a big job. That's the thing!!
"Even though a student, my CV then was 7 pages. I did so many non-paid work that my experience and value was that of a consultant but I didn't know it until someone placed a value on my capacity."
Many LinkedIn users were stunned by his story.
Samuel Okerulu wrote:
"This sounds like a fluke , until it happens to one.
"Your days of endless reading late in the night just paid off.
"Dr. Akanimo Odon may the good Lord continue this marvelous work he has started in your life.
"Keep soaring."

"I think I collapsed especially cos I converted it to Naira that got me cracking.... nicely written, lesson well taught."
Patrick Daramola said:
"How many of you like me convert 500 pounds to Naira First before writing comment. Value first. Thanks for Sharing."

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a man revealed how he got employment without pay.
Bero said he decided to search for a job without pay because the job market was already saturated with lots of unemployed graduates and his chances were very limited despite having a high grade.
Legit.ng gathered that the engineer, who made the disclosure on LinkedIn, said he knew he had to do something to get out of the idle mode.
