What we call chawuzing

You No sabi people..
I was at Astrazeneca for an interview and after the usual questions asked. The lady asked, who do you know?? These days, companies are seeking who they can rely on, and not just what you have to offer. It's only God that can help..

At FBN capital, a meeting was called and a lady who had her pride at her heels didn't inform her boss of her resignation, when she stated she was no longer interested while at the meeting, the boss was shocked about her not informing him before the meeting.

Lo and behold, a week later, FBN lost 4billion naira. She was called back, her salary was tripled, her car totally changed, her apartment was equipped. As she enter, 8billion show. So my brother, who you sabi also matter.

From the moment you step out of the interview room, your eagerness and anxiety increases. You simply want to know the next step -to hear back from the Interviewers. You become more glued to your phone so as not to miss any call and your email is always the first thing you check in the morning and before going to bed. Most frustrating is the fact that you knew you ought to ask some questions in a job interview which you rightly did.
Funny enough, unless you have an inside connection in the company, you probably might never know why you were never contacted but for those who didn’t, here are five solid reasons on why you never heard back from the
Interviewers/recruiters.

Mistakes in your Resume: There is no greater turn-off to an interviewer than a mistake-riddled CV/resume. No employer wants to place responsibility into the hands of an employee who can’t even write a document about themselves without mistakes. No doubt, your CV must first create an impression to the recruiter before you are even called up for an interview. If you know pointing to details is one of your weak points, it’s advisable to proof-read it well
before the final submission or you get someone to do it for
you.
The Interviewers/Recruiters Haven’t Made Up Their Minds: Getting back to potential employees can be a daunting task to recruiters/interviews especially when all the candidates for the post all seemed to be qualified. When this is the case, be sure that the recruiters are still in doubt about the best person for the job.
3. You are simply not Qualified: Long term job search can force you to churn out sporadic CVs and resumes to positions you are not qualified for. Doing this won’t help you at all rather you can channel your energy on things you can be doing if you are unemployed

4. Poor Interview Skills: Your CV/Resume is an award-winning one. And so what? (Paying a professional copy writer to write or edit it for you is as simple as ABC. I am not saying it’s wrong. I encourage it as long as it will land you an interview). Know this, the words on the paper is not enough to land you the job the words coming out of your mouth are riddled with grammatical blunders While slang in an interview is a total no-no, try as much as possible to avoid the use of ” yeah”, ” eh eh em¦¦¦. (you would simply be perceived as not being confident and tenable to lying). This alone is enough to turn your
Interviewer(s) off and make the whole interview process
boring.

5. Your Social Media Speaks Bad About You: This might be
Strange to you. Recruiters are simply adopting ”ridiculous” means daily to disqualify applicants especially when there are two qualified candidates for a single post. A background check on your social media profile might be all the employer need to decide hiring you or not. From your LinkedIn, Facebook account to Twitter, always maintain some levels of professionalism. Using a female picture as your Display Picture when you are a male is darm unprofessional as a job seekers. You probably don’t know who is watching.

BONUS

6. Your Appearance is off the Hook: While a first impression goes a long way in endearing you to your potential employer(s) the truth remains that recruiters are continuously judging a book by its cover daily. Even though we castigate recruiters who do not do enough to see the potentials of those they are interviewing due to their shady appearance, as an applicant, try as much as possible to keep in touch with the fashion trends of your day. An eighteenth century dressing mode in this age is enough to shut the door against you.

Reading is good but sharing is better. Someone (who you might even know) somewhere need these tips right now.
This is one of the ways you can encourage us to improve better.

There's so much bad grammar in this article that it made my eyes hurt

The other room factor !

Good job my dear writer but I don't support that notion, what actually land u a job or not is God's time...remember when God is at work protocol is dismissed

DLondonboiy:
Lol

It's a pity people still look for jobs in Nigeria

When all of you (unemployed youths) should hold hands and walk straight to Abuja, block everywhere..if you come out in your millions and block Abuja, if you can shun tribalism and come out under the single umbrella-Nigeria youth- I strongly believe a remedy would appear in less than 1week........but NO, you believed 2016 would be your year abi? From glory to glory right? Ha! There is no God anywhere to help anybody get a job...If you want to be sucessful, then you need to be ruthless..

No money, no money....go to Abuja and see how they are sharing YOUR money.

Wetin even concern me

Nonsense! There is God, and by His grace many are getting jobs everyday.

First FTC in 4 years.

I dedicate this FTC to the 21 chibok girls who were released and more who are yet to be released. I also enjoin you not to lose hope in your pursuit . Just imagine all the sleepless nights, trying to win the FTC . I wasn't deterred - I later won it.

To those looking or jobs ... God will land you a high paying job before this year runs out .

You forgot to add another one: They already have their own anointed candidate in mind for the job, but are just trying to fulfill all righteousness or keep up appearances by holding interviews, in order to give the impression that a fair process was followed, before slotting in their appointed candidate who has been waiting in the wings.

And the final one: An interviewer or someone important on the panel feels intimidated by the candidate or applicant. An interviewer once told a friend of mine: "You are over-qualified for this role. In fact, you have more degrees than I do. If we hire you, management would remove me and replace me with you."
