Good day NLers, my name is tolu and I hold a master degree in public health from UI, I am a team player who is willing to learn. Pls if you are an employer in my field or know of any vacancies kindly contact me on 08035585577. Thanks

Hi Tolu...im sorry im not an employer but just kind of curious that with your masters degree you havent gotten yourself a placement somewhere....it only shows that getting a job in this country is more like searching for a needle in a haystack...

why not sit down and analyse the situation you are in very well...

like, who really needed my kind of experience...

what can i contribute to an organisation, person or community in terms of ideas... etc

if you can come up with good answers to these questions, then you dont need to look further for job...you already have one...

here is what i will suggest...

get yourself a nice looking shirts and jacket...
write a good presentation for a company you have researched...
go to the company and book an appt/meet with the person in charge of what you have in mind...like the HR, PM, MD, etc
tell them how you can help them to achieve a better company with your skill...
if you are good in your field, you will definately have admirers and can possibly land yourself a consultancy job!

i've actually done this to some companies and with just a little push i was able to get them to sign a monthly cheque for my experience...

though you might get some rejection, do not let that discourage you...

believe me it works...create an aura of authority for yourself and they will look you that way...

if you need to talk more on strategies to getting clients you can add me to your YM filiksb@yahoo.com or call the no on my sig...

lets share your success!!!

Thanks a lot Fbb am encouraged will surely get in touch with you
