Starting out is a maze: your first job, your first salary, whether to stay or go. Spend a day with people 5–10 years ahead who found their way through. Built for young Nigerians aged 18–40.
Not another lecture. Young Nigerians sit in a room with people just a few years ahead, who tell them exactly how they got their first job, what they'd do differently, and how to build wealth early.
Career growth, financial literacy and building wealth early, from people who've done it.
Speakers are 5–10 years ahead, not a generation ahead, so the advice actually fits.
Time for networking is built into the day. Past attendees have left with jobs, mentors and collaborators.
Three mazes almost everyone hits in their 20s and 30s, and a room full of people who've already been through them.
Getting in, your first five years, and switching paths without starting from zero.
Your first salary, saving, investing and side hustles, before the money disappears.
Start now: plan your salary free with Tereka, the money planner built by the Starting Out community.
The japa question, answered honestly by people who stayed and people who left.
