Again, degree dey often refer to broad category of knowledge, while skills dey refer to specific ability or expertise. Employers dey find people wey get specific skills wey go fit meet di exact needs of their company, instead of general knowledge wey fit no dey useful.

For conclusion, even though degree still fit dey important for many people wey dey find job, e no be everything when e reach to get job or move forward for career. Employers dey look more and more for people wey get specific skills wey go fit apply directly for the job and fit help the company succeed. For today job market, e dey important pass ever to focus on develop skills wey dey demand, so you go fit increase your chance to get job and move forward for your career.

I hope you do know that having a degree in school doesn't guarantee you of any job even with a networking but with a skill, if you market your self very well, you will get one or two gigs and with more good feedbacks, you will sell yourself more faster than a person with a degree. However, I think you should work more to get a degree and then get a skill along with it, you will having two bird with one hand and you will enjoy the beauty of life in every place you found yourself. A chemical Engineer can have a modeling skills and software programing as part of his skills, this will help you sell out more and I'm speaking from experience because it's what I do.

The country is global hay where job opportunities are going down and down because even statistically, there has been a shortage of jobs over the last 8-9 years and we are having more and more graduates every year in addition to the ones we have had before and the competition is getting stringer and stronger because today graduates are looking even more younger than the previous generations which is making jobs tighter. Try and get yourself a skill.

These days, a degree is not really a guarantee for anyone to have a job or like the job they are in. Having a skill before having obtained a degree helps anyone navigate the financial hurdles involved in schooling, attending lectures, buying handouts and working on projects.
So tell me why after having the degree, one shouldn't improve on such skills to earn better, without even waiting for a job.

If one has no skills and have obtained a degree, it is good to learn a skill while waiting for a job, who knows maybe one might just find what makes them a millionaire without stress.
