Nigerian lady loses oil company job opportunity after wearing leg chain to interview
A Nigerian lady has reportedly lost a promising job opportunity after appearing at an interview with multiple ear piercings and a leg chain.
The job seeker, who had successfully advanced past the initial interview stage for a Personal Assistant position at an oil servicing firm, was disqualified due to her appearance.
The incident was brought to light by the lady’s friend, @Chrisllionaire_, who expressed his frustration on social media.
According to @Chrisllionaire_, the CEO of the firm rejected the candidate based on her appearance, which he deemed inappropriate for the position.
The friend shared details of the situation via a WhatsApp chat, highlighting the CEO’s negative feedback.
“I’ve been fuming for the past 12 hours. Someone applied for a personal assistant job to the CEO of an oil servicing firm. She aced the first interview and was set for the second round with the CEO and another person.
“But the guy totally tra§hed her appearance just because she had multiple ear piercings, wore a leg chain, and had visible pan.ty lines. Seriously, what happened to being decent about stuff you don’t like? If you’ve got reservations, keep them to yourself. I’m boiling over this,” @Chrisllionaire_ wrote on X.
Netizens Reactions…
@DGreatBundee said: “She got what she deserved. I’ll not want such a person as my personal assistant myself. Would have made sense if CEO is Female like her. What’s d big deal with dressing decently ? You can do as you please when you’re your own boss 🤷🏼♂️.”
@TiebetEkandem said: “She had one job, and that was dress for the interview. “The pan.ty lines is very excusable but the leg chain, for a personal assistant to a CEO, like?
“First impressions count and unfortunately the first 10 seconds of meeting someone impacts what they think going forward.”
@ptreatshaven said: “Leg chain to an interview and her pan.ty lines showing? “It’s kinda tacky if we’re being sincere. “That’s a corporate organization and not an entertainment company. “The CEO could have probably kept his observations to himself but, she’ll learn from this going further.”
@Init_kouture said: “Dam.n really felt bad and I hope she gets something better soon, I have multiple piercings and legs chains but I usually take them off whenever I am going to an official setting cos I know they will have something negative to say about it.. “It’s her life but sometimes you just have to let this things be for a while then get back to them when you finally get the job.. felt sorry for her🫂🫂.”
@EeevaJames said: “I don’t want to sound judgmental, but wearing leg chains to a job interview seems inappropriate. “It’s very important to dress in a way that aligns with professionalism
