5 Best Kenyan Towns to work in.

Not many Kenyan workers like transfers, unless of course, it’s from a remote village to a big town. However, in the civil service and government jobs at least, one has to be posted to remote areas at some point in their career. Here are the five towns or cities which I think you should celebrate if you are posted to any one of them. I have carefully weighed the cost of living against the abundance of many essential services.

1. Thika.

Thika’s close proximity to Nairobi makes it arguably the best place to be posted to. You will enjoy all the luxuries that Nairobi affords you, yet still get to live your village life. Thika used to be the most industrialized town in Kenya in the early post independence years, but many factories have since collapsed. However,

Should IT and engineering graduates take up jobs in Accounting and Finance?

There has been a recent trend in Kenya, and also globally, where science, IT, and engineering graduates end up working in jobs in the business, finance, and accounting fields. But if you are an engineering graduate, should you jump ship to the financial world if you get an opportunity? First, here’s why many Science, Technology, Math, and engineering graduates end up taking jobs in the Finance field.

1. Jobs in finance and accounting pay better.

Firms like Deloitte, KPMG, PWC, KRA, and Ernst &Young, pay far much better than engineering companies in industrial area, some of which offer salaries as low as 15,000 per month for fresh university graduates.

2. The skill sets required are the same.

Since engineering is primarily a math and quantitative discipline, many engineers take to numbers like fish to water. With just a few months of training on basic accounting and finance essentials, they are ready to hit the
