The Effects Of Tuesday And Thursday Guardian Newspaper On The Nigerian Job Market

Going through a typical Nigerian newspaper will give one the impression that all is well in the country.Albeit the Guardian newspaper too succumb to this theory with various government promises and achievements in alleviating poverty, unemployment and other ills in the land through adverts and paid announcements, they usually return to reality every Tuesday and Thursday with advertisements of job offers. A typical guardian newspaper on these two days will give any job seeker the opportunity to have an idea about what is going on in the labour market. Advertisements of skilled, semi skilled and unskilled labour are the main courses on these two days.

Though classified advertisements will always be in the newspaper Monday through Sunday, it will be in small quantity and you can not count on them to be there anytime you buy the newspaper. So the Guardian newspaper on Tuesday and Thursday are like the recognized newspaper that brings classified advertisements to job seekers in Nigeria on a regular basis. Job seekers are sure to find a lot of classified advertisements on any of these two days in the Guardian. It is like a rallying point for both employers of labour and those seeking employment in Nigeria.

Most employer of labour has since made it a medium to get to their prospective job applicants.They prefer to do their advert on these two days in the Guardian newspaper. As at the time of going to press, no other newspaper has this periodic advertisement of classifieds. Because of the reach of the Guardian and its popularity, the effect of their Tuesday and Thursday publications on the Nigerian job market has been quite tremendous.

Employment of labour can connect to a wide range of job seekers through this weekly publication of the Guardian newspaper.

With their online debut, the reach and effect can only get bigger. Whether all job seekers can be able to afford the Guardian twice a week is really another topic.

Because the Guardian, just like any other newspaper, makes its profit from advertisement and paid announcements, verifying the sources and the trustworthiness of these classified advertisements is beyond their scope. So there has been claims of employment scams and fake advertisement of jobs emanating from some of the advertisements placed in the Guardian on Tuesday and Thursday.

The truth of the matter is that although these scam claims will always rear their ugly heads in some situations, the Guardian newspaper editions of Tuesday and Thursday remain the only Nigerian newspaper that periodically reach out to both employers and prospective job applicants on a common platform.
