Sometimes we end up making an available choice of course.The pressure to leave home and be admitted to any higher institution could lead one to nowhere.It is important for you to get the right orientation before choosing a course if you want to make it big in life. There are some high paying jobs in the society and it would be totally useless for you to waste so much time in the university over a course that is not lucrative of what use is it to pay heavily for education if the discipline would not yield high returns in the long run? A high salary does not hurt anyone as most people dream of good jobs that will settle them financially and help them live the lives they have dreamt of living.
It will shock you to know that there are some high paying jobs in the country; these are the kind of jobs that put you above the average salary earners. Here, one can afford to live large and save for the rainy days.
People with high paying jobs may not feel the long term impact of recession as they will always have enough to sort themselves and their family members. Although the employment rate is depressing, those who are fortunate enough to get these jobs earn enviable salaries. Not only is the pay encouraging, the respect that comes with jobs like that also spur many people on. The work balance is fair compared to jobs with demanding requirements and lesser pay. Find below the best high-paying jobs in Nigeria, they are not listed in any particular order:
1. Healthcare
In Nigeria, the respect that comes with being a medical doctor can never be underestimated. Irrespective of their area of specialization, medical doctors will always be considered to be hot cakes as they are well paid and the security that comes with the job is high.Surgeons receive an attractive sum of money in addition to being highly sought.
2. Law
For so many reasons, Nigerian parents have certain professions they want their wards to focus on. This is because they know the stability that comes with jobs like that.Being a lawyer is one of the jobs any parent would wish his child to have. Studying this course requires serious commitment and dedication.
3. Petroleum engineering
Anyone who works offshore or onshore as an engineer for a petroleum company is sure to earn a huge salary.There are some jobs that people do not bother asking what the minimum salary is because it would surpass their expectations and leave them either depressed or excited.
This job is more or less the dream job of many Nigerians as they get to live well compared to the meager salaries being paid to people in other professions.
4. Airline operation
Being a pilot in Nigeria is no joke. The skilled personnel who fly the planes get paid heavily in addition to the boosted self esteem they have every time someone 'oohs' and 'aahs' about their profession.They are treated like expatriates and enjoy some privileges exclusive to that profession alone.
5. Lecturing
Although many people have different opinions about this job, it is one of the most stable jobs we have here. The pay is handsome and it comes with some benefits that propels self development.Apart from being well paid, lecturers have the time to do other businesses and grow their brands compared to those who work other jobs. Their profession gives them the opportunity to meet people from all walks of life.
6. Politics
In this part of the world, being a politician is a job. While they are serving the nation in the best way possible, they are highly paid individuals who take money in addition to what is given to them officially. This list would be incomplete without them.
7. Engineering
There is a reason this job is being separated from that of the petrochemical engineers. Although they are in the same field, their job requirements are different.Engineers are highly paid because they have access to the major projects that are being done. They bid for major contracts sponsored by the government and make a fortune from the projects.Just a few out of many could be brought to limelight.So,before you make any choice of course ,get a detailed information on what the career entails.

Nigerian has been beleveled by massive
unemployment in recent years. Many jobs
are being lose and few jobs are being
create mainly by the private sectors. One of
the essential reasons of having a higher
education is to secure a better job.
Though in Nigeria, there are limited jobs
avaliable when compare with large number
of job seeker. Despite government policy
and their perceived conviction of finding a
lasting solution for unemployment and
youth empowerment, much has not been
changed recently.
In as much as the content of this article is
not about unemployment, but it helps to
drive us and shine more light about
choosing courses or programme in our
universities for a better employability.
In these tough unemployment condition
where more graduates are joining already
graduated student in search of a better job,
for future students planning to enroll for
their higher education degrees in Nigeria
univerisities, there is need to consider and
choose a course that holds a better future
for you than just going to university
because you want to follow other or you
want to please society for being a
graduate.
I stand to be corrected. In most developed
world, the department of labour and
statistic usually publish a labour outlook
report which predicts jobs that will be in
high demand currently and within a
stipulated time-frame based on economic
trend.
This is a vital information for those who
wish to switch field and students about
enrolling on for a course in the university,
but there is no such statistic in Nigeria
which could server as a guide. Which
course hold a better future for you in
Nigeria in term of employment and
reasonable payment?.
I do not in anyway wish the bring down
any field or profession but the fact still
remains that in Nigeria, there are some
fields that you hardly see an advert about a
vacant position.
