See the part in bold. I am a recruiter, I know a fake CV when I see one.

I still do not understand why people design their CVs to suit the positions they are applying for.

Why can't you have one and original CV that shows you for who you are.

Another one is that you should have taken up an internship or voluntary job that would help in building your experience.

LET ME TELL U GUYS MY SHORT STORY:
After my youth service and no job for three months, i decided to take a bold step.
One sunny day, i walked into this plastic producing company which i had earlier seen d advert on paper and went directly to d owner, showed him my C.V which was outstanding by d way, told him to let me work for him for FREE for two months (no be sey i desperate o, but i just wanna keep my soul active) which he accepted instantly.
I hadn't worked up to a week when he made me d branch manager to his new site.
That's why i never had d jobless time to complete my stories on d Literature section. It was joblessness dat made me realised i had gat talent for composing horrific stories.

@OP, d family curse wey dey follow u get strong-head like Buhari.

Here's a Nigerian, suitably qualified and willing to work yet the job is not just there. Some of us are not unemployed but underemployed yet the outgoing administration claim they create millions of jobs every month.
Tuesday and Thursday Guardian is no more for job advert it was known for but now "felicitations" to the robbers of our economy.
There's this thing being a serial applicant does to your psych, one begins to deteriorate becoming less and less competitive by the day that you'll be ready to take just any job on offer. This is the worst way citizen of a country can be treated.
For Nigerians abroad, don't even think of coming home. Fvck patriotism, I wish I had known better not to have too much faith in Nigeria.

If there are no jobs or openings, how was the OP able to apply to One thousand jobs?
There is no way on earth the OP could have been qualified for all those openings. 1000. Na how many degrees you hold? Applying to every single opening and expecting results will get you nowhere.

While I don't know if your story is true, this is the kind of approach that will definitely land you a job. Most people are too busy applying to Chevron, Stanbic etc. They see jobs that pay 40k and say "I am a graduate, how can I earn that". End up staying at home for 3years and come to nairaland to complain.

Please if you know you have nothing for the OP do not waste his time any further.

I am sure the OP must have seen a billion send me your CV persons. Those people are even worse than the unemployment itself.
They know they have nothing to offer so they raise your hopes high, waste your time and when you start calling them to follow up with the submitted CV, you begin to look like a pest.

Today i hit 1100 applications for job in Nigeria. What is the wayforward?

This means i have applying for jobs everyday for the past three years
: mathematically,
365 Ă— 3 = 1095

Where do i get it wrong ?

I have a second class upper, i always edit my cv to suit position i'm applying for, i am always online

I have prayed & fasted for 50days this year alone.

I always asked for help from well connected friends.

I follow up all my application sometimes i even cal HR of the company i'm to applying to.

I am an active member of nairaland and i also help my friends in terms of jobs and in the long run they will get job.

I am a staunch christian who has complete trust in God.

I have been to different deliverance programme. what is my problem?

Could it be that my time as not come?

I am simply tired and optimistic.

I take refuge in GOD i leave everything to you and to you alone be all the glory.

Let your will be done in my life

Let me bring my testimony to your children here in nairaland

Let me break this jinx of stagnation and barrier oh Lord

Let people celebrate with me

I BELIEVE WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE

I ALWAYS CRY IN MY CLOSET BUT I WONT STOP THE JOB HUNT

ANOTHER CYCLE IS ABOUT TO BEGIN


PLEASE ADVICE!!!!


My question for you

Have you worked somewhere before?
Do you shy away from marketing jobs?
Do you rely on what the so-called HR you make contact with say?
For me, I believe the best thing to do is not give up. keep applying, and find 4 professionals who can do a review of your resume.
The better the resume, the more chance you get being called for an interview, and of course out of 4 companies, you get one and build yourself up from there. It is well.

The op said he was always online. There are tons of resources online he can learn from if he is determined. Plus there are NGOs that organize some skill acquisition programs for free.

Please where can we find these NGO'S offering skill acquisitions?
