Jobs/Vacancies / What To Do When Your Potential Mentor Ignores You by AbdulAkpan: 1:01pm On Jan 14, 2021
Sometimes, you may reach out to a potential mentor and get ignored. Of course, your mentor could help you become more visible in your industry, but, sometimes, s/he could be too busy or too committed to various people and projects to take on more mentees.

At other times, s/he may simply not be interested in taking you on as a mentee.

This happens often and to anyone on the career ladder. Try not to become bitter if this happens to you, instead look for alternatives to put yourself out there.

Luckily for everyone, social media platforms have given voices to everyone, including those who would otherwise, not have one. What are you using your social media for? What do you want people to remember when they see your name in print or hear your name mentioned?

Map out an attainable plan that will help you achieve whatever visibility goal you have in your head and stick to it. Be consistent with your execution and watch yourself become a career thought leader in whatever field you are currently working in.

Jobs/Vacancies / Common Interests Also Matter When Networking by AbdulAkpan: 11:36am On Jan 12, 2021
Networking is not just about looking out for opportunities for yourself.

You need to have a mindset of give and take. You also need to understand that those you meet could have other interests aside from the obvious.

Surprisingly, your other interests could coincide with theirs.

Try to push the conversation beyond the obvious, so, you and those within your network, can find common interests and look for ways to create more opportunities, that will benefit everyone.

Jobs/Vacancies / Avoid Working For Human Rights Abusers by AbdulAkpan: 8:30am On Jan 07, 2021
Whether you are on the lookout for a job or you already have one, it is important to understand that maintaining a work-life balance, will help you live a better life.

When you maintain a balance between your work life and your personal life, you tend to be less-stressed and more productive at work.

When the lines are blurred, you'll find yourself on a never-ending rollercoaster, not knowing what times you're supposed to be working or when you should spend time away from work.

There are some workplaces where people are required to work during the weekends or even at night on weekdays, yet, they're not paid overtime.

This is why it is extremely important, to understand terms of contract for a job, before accepting that position. Once you accept, it becomes difficult to change or improve on those terms.

Ask questions during job interviews, conduct informational interviews with past and present employees if you have to, in order to protect yourself from workplaces where a work-life balance is hardly maintained.

Don't get me wrong . I asked an honest question . I know some of the sites listed out . And will like to know what your earnings are like on them .. some sites for example don't pay well , some don't accept Nigerians , etc etc ... So don't feel attacked I come in peace

I apologise for my outburst. I will do a post on which remote work websites accept Nigerians. As for the payments, it depends on the third parties involved. Many sites are just conduits between freelancers and companies/individuals seeking project handlers.

Jobs/Vacancies / The Gig Economy Is Growing - Take Advantage! by AbdulAkpan: 5:59am On Jan 05, 2021
Gig economy refers to jobs within a labor market that presents contract jobs/freelance jobs based on a contractual agreement between the worker and the company/organization. In other words, as a gig worker, you are not a permanent staff member of the company/organization that you work for, you are a freelancer. You get paid for each job you do.

People working under the gig economy have the freedom to work for as many companies/organizations as they can handle. The gig economy is rising as more people are looking at building their career portfolios through freelance work with various platforms.

The Covid-19 pandemic has also contributed to making the gig economy expand throughout the world as lockdown rules are implemented. Many companies/organizations have gone fully remote, so, there is more demand for gig workers, who can carry out their duties from wherever they are.

If you are on the lookout for remote work as a gig worker, you should talk to your professional friends for work opportunities. You can also register on the following websites and look out for job postings;

Jobs/Vacancies / Workplaces Are Making Adjustments Due To Covid-19 by AbdulAkpan: 1:31pm On Jan 04, 2021
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, lots of changes will occur in the workplace. The regular 9 to 5 work period may be challenged because employers and employees cannot afford to execute work prior to the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2019/20.

Some companies and organizations are already shifting towards full-time remote work, while others are focused on building a hybrid workplace.

Whatever the case may be, ensure that as an employee, you commit to a workplace that is interested in making reasonable adjustments as it relates to your own work realities.
