Dear UN-SERIOUS Job Seeker by kalimera101: 11:44am On Mar 07, 2019
Hello Everyone,

How's Job Hunting going?

I help recruit qualified candidates into legit firms because the company I work for is a business consulting firm and in some cases, we help these businesses find suitable persons for the roles.

However, there's a clan of persons who apply for jobs that are a tad bit unserious and it's rather infuriating especially from Nairaland.

I've gotten awesome persons from here as well and I'm quite glad.

However, to the very un-serious ones, I don't understand you guys.
How will you apply for a job via email and you don't write a body in the email stating who you are and what you are applying for?
The ones their village people are following are those ones that send the emails without a SUBJECT.

As in I am not getting it. No Subject? Please, what are you looking for?

Another set, they are using their picture to fan themselves in a gathering, will not read the Job Ad which contains specific requirements such as Location, Gender and Qualifications, that shows you are not observant and highly inattentive to details.

Another Set, after being shortlisted for interview will call hours after the interview to say sorry they couldn't make it (or even worse) can't make it, and if they can reschedule. Wait!!! What?

For my company, we always do a phone interview before an invitation to the physical interview, so one question we ask is if you'll be available for a phone interview? If you say yes, please honour your word. If the day reaches and you can't make it, let us know in time, you just deprived someone else of the opportunity.

Another Set, Please make sure your CV is updated. Don't write you are proficient in Ms Word and Excel and when you arrive for a physical interview, you can't tell us 30% of 5,000.


Finally, if you are in 2019 and you are still not proficient in any social media platform then I don't know what is doing you. Then those of you that apply for Social Media Management jobs, please know the bloody job you are applying for, for Heaven's Sake.
When you are asked what are the things a business should do to grow their base on Instagram. You had better know about it. This is 2019, Jesus!!!

How can you apply for such a position and stare blankly at the interviewer and start stammering? It's infuriating.

I understand that some interviewers can be mean and come at you strong. But that is not in your control.
You should, however, fix those things you have control over and that is YOU.

I understand we all have lives aside job hunting. But if you're going to apply please be serious and stop wasting anybody's time including yours.

Thank you.

Dear Recruiter

We are so tired of filling uncountable forms that's why we show those lackadaisical attitude listed above. When you have submitted 200 forms for job opportunities and till date not gotten a credible response to many you throw caution to the wind and apply in whatever way you feel like. It is now up to you to send us an invite that way or you stick your job somewhere dark.

We are more pissed than you guys grin

@Op, great piece of art- your points and observations are noted. We'll ( job seekers) make amends.

Permit me to say this...
There are few times when the circumstances at job seekers hand is beyond her or his control and in such times, he may be seen as an unserious fellow. Let's take me as an instance, I once got opportunity to attend interview with your company but I didn't make it to the venue due to circumstances that came up. Prior to this, I had already affirmed I will be at the venue through email and phone call. I had brought out and arranged my clothes and shoes a night to the interview day and suddenly things turned out the other way.

Sometimes, it's never international to miss an interview after accepting to come for the interview.

Please do consider me for another chance as customer service personnel or social media account management when you have openings.I have experiences and skills in customer service, call center support, social media account management etc


Thank you and God bless you.
