A Nigerian guy revealed an unexpected issue during a job interview where he had to explain the importance of his degree, microbiology.
The incident, as told by @anthonioclever on social media platform X, has created quite a stir.
The humorous story was shared on social media by @anthonioclever, who proudly stated that he received a second-class upper degree in Microbiology.
18 months after graduation, the graduate decided to look for work in his field of study.
The amusing twist came when he was unable to describe the fundamental definition of microbiology throughout the interview.
“Interview question, what is microbiology?” the dissatisfied graduate said of his job interview. “I’d forgotten.”
Despite his academic achievements, his slip in recalling the essential notion of his major caused him to become flustered.
In his own words;
“18 months after graduating with a microbiology first degree (2’1), decided to try a job in that field. Interview question, what is microbiology? I had forgotten. So on my way back home, I branch Chicken Republic to celebrate the waste of 4 years.”
