Lady gets job after claiming to have done para military service
The interviewer, who was unfamiliar with the Nigerian context of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), was taken aback by Levyngrey's statement.
She said the oyinbo showered her with compliments, assuming she had completed a significant and impressive paramilitary service.
While the interviewer believed she had accomplished something remarkable, Levyngrey knew it was simply her NYSC service, a mandatory one-year programme for Nigerian graduates.
She silently chuckled, appreciating the unintentional praise she received. Levyngrey secured the job because she served her country.
Netizens promise to try the method in subsequent interviews
Netizens flooded the comments section, expressing their amusement over the incident.
Many mentioned that they would use a similar tactic in future interviews, hoping to receive unexpected praise and compliments.
