Nigerian Lady Vexed After Being Dismissed At A Job Interview Because ‘She Is Short’

A woman has taken to Twitter to express her disappointment after being turned down for a job because she is short.

She claimed she had been invited to an interview at a posh hotel at Victoria Island.

According to the lady, she tried her best to make it to the venue despite the rain, since she was desperate to get the job.

The lady then said that she was told she is too short for the position and was turned down as she went in for her interview.

She said, “I got a message yesterday to come for an interview today in a big fancy hotel in VI. Woke up by 6, had my shower did makeup. Left on time to beat up with lekki traffic. Still on a bus when the rain started, got down from the bus rain beats me, told myself l must make it to the Interview today.

“Then again the rain was terrible I had to book uber, on getting to the venue met some other people waiting. Luckily for me, it was 25 minutes to the interview.

“The HR and interviewer came in called one after the other, my heart was beating fast hoping I would be selected for this great job. Finally, it was my turn to be interviewed only for the interviewer to tell me I’m too short to work for the company that they can’t take me because of my height. My God! I was so sad. All the Time, effort, hopes were just in vain.

“I’m so ashamed of my country Nigeria. If
we don’t help others grow how do we
grow. That is why most girls instead of
them working they rather prefer doing
prostitution because jobs don’t favor
them.”

She did admit that she is short but doesn’t see how that should attract such discrimination towards her. The lady said, “Na short I short I no kill person.”
