NYSC members are entitled to salary, says recruitment expert
Meanwhile, Fox Nigeria spoke to Samson Adebayo, a recruitment specialist at Devskiller and he confirmed that there are companies that pay NYSC members.
Samson said NYSC members are entitled to a salary and that some of them earn good money where they work, apart from their allowance from the Federal Government.

Interestingly, some NYSC members receive salaries comparable to, or even surpassing, those of experienced hires in other companies. This is particularly prevalent in the oil and gas sector, where some NYSC members reportedly earn up to ₦300,000.”

“Securing a NYSC placement isn’t always straightforward. Companies have varying hiring processes.”
