I did mention about writing a CV before but I will emphasize these 2 points again. When writing a CV:

1. Differentiate between Career Objective/C.O, Career Goals/C.G, Personal Description (About Me)/P.D and Skills Set/S.S.

- Your C.O is what keeps you working, Why you are and would keep working.
- Your C.G is what you hope to achieve in your career path.
- Your P.D is you selling yourself as a business/employment solution. i.e Why should anyone be hiring you? What do they stand to gain or loose if they/they do not hire you.
- Your S.S is a bullet point of what characteristics/attributes/talents you have that improves your chances/builds on your ability to deliver in your prospective work environment.

2. Work experience should not be concise. It is your ticket to impressing the recruiting officer you cannot see.

- Don't just stop at e.g NYSC: Teaching 2014 - 2015
- What was your routine as a teacher?
- What did you achieve (little or great) as a teacher
- What was your job description as a teacher?
- Any acknowledgments you got?

Do this and apply it to every other work experience you put on your CV.

Do NOT summarize your working experience. It is practically the most important aspect of your CV.


Good luck

So I've been seeing a lot of CV guides on FP this year... I'm sure we can all appreciate the effort and advice.

However, could we start seeing more of how to create businesses and create jobs on FP? It's like we're all chasing the very few jobs out there, spending all our time and money on polishing a CV that will be in a pile of 500 others... yet there was this inspiring thread by ymodulus on the various hustles and businesses he was able to start last year, most with reasonable costs. https://www.nairaland.com/2838270/brief-summary-all-business-encounters

moderators: Not to throw shade on the CV (how to get a job) threads, but in this 2016, we need more and more business ideas on FP, please.

To make all this easy and not bore people...upload samples with different patterns.by doin so job seekers will have choices you know,at least the lazy ones will have an idea or better still copy it aand print for their prospective employer...

The reality of today is dt millions are chasing the few jobs available. They'r fine thread @ the agric section and it will be noice if many of those threads make front page not sm inconsequuential threads. NL can help promote self employyment by shifting these threads FP.
