Extra Miles I Have Gone To Get A Job.. by ELff: 10:55pm On Nov 02, 2016
Hey people, getting a job is tough, most especially during this time of recession, it's d eleventh month of the year and there are some of us who haven't still gotten our dream job, I'm here to say don't loose faith, the ways of God are not the ways of man and the Bible says our help comes from God who made Heaven and earth, but also remember faith without works is dead.
I just want to show some of the ways I ve left my comfort zone when it comes to applying for a job. These ones stand out for me..

I sent A mail to the CEO of an online grocery shop, luckily I was scheduled for an interview, Well, I dint scale the interview.

One of the biggest media and advertising company put out an advert for a trainee, yes! I knew that even if I had experience in some other field, my experience was of little or no importance to them so I decided to think out of the box and then I went to computer village, got a white board, got some paint and took some sand from an uncompleted building close to my house, I mixed the sand and paint together to achieve the desired color and the a mosaic on the board. After doing that I wrapped it in brown paper and took to the office myself, the next hurdle was how do I get this board to the person I needed it to get to considering I couldn't just go there to drop it off without tagging it to a name because I didn't want it to end in a waste bin.. Well, I figured it out..
After about a month, I got a call from the organization commending my effort and what I did, and that it was impressive, they said if there's a need for me, they'd reach out.... No word from them till now. It's all good though.

So Guinness Nigeria was recruiting for the position of an account executive, I have applied to Guinness on several occasions and when I was close close to been an employee, we were sent mails that the position has been put on hold(can't remember vividly if it was canceled) till further notice. So I wanted so badly to stand out from other applicants, I contacted a website developer, told him what I wanted and within what time frame I wanted it, as usual with these so called I. T guys(not all of them though), I got a poor interpretation of what I wanted long after the duration for applications had expired

The Struggle To get that Dream Job Is Real. I Love Business Intelligence, I am presently taking courses On MSBI and I Intend to be One Of The Best Business Inteligence Analyst Known. Im Proficient In The Use Of Advanced Excel For Data Anakysis, pivot Tables And Dashboards, charts And PivOt Charts, Vlookups, formulas Etc.

I Wish Us All Our Heart desires.
