Thanks bro

NevetsIbot:
by rigidity do you mean she's forming for you or she's simply nervous around you?

Not forming. I wouldnt say nervous either. But just not acting freely, speaking in mono-thongs.

This kinda thing happens sometimes no matter how hard we tend to be. I acknowledge it and thats why i need your help guys.

Hi Profs here., I need help here and . I and my friend visited his gal friend in the hostel and i met her friend there. I collected her number ( without any intention ooo). 3 days later, my friend called me to rush to his room upstairs that there is sth , only to meet the gal. I was shocked to say the least. Since then, she always visit with her friend and most times we are either in my room or in their room upstairs. They all joke at us that while are we so distance bla bla bla ,. I already told her my mind but the problem now is that from that day one she visited , there have been awkward moments. she is rigid and doednt talk but respond in monologues when ever we talk but she feels so so free with my friend and the third guy we stay together. More or less , i dont even know what to talk to her again about as i havent been in this kind of situation before. I feel so free with her friend and others but this is just frustrating. As am talking, she just left my room with her friend now and its the same issue. How can i break her rigidity pls and make her feel relaxed. The point is even when i tried to just forget anything about her and just flow with the vibes, the rigidity and look on her face brings everything to a standstill. I need answers pls.

From the moment you step out of the interview room, your eagerness and anxiety increases. You simply want to know the next step -to hear back from the Interviewers. You become more glued to your phone so as not to miss any call and your email is always the first thing you check in the morning and before going to bed. Most frustrating is the fact that you knew you ought to ask some questions in a job interview which you rightly did.
Funny enough, unless you have an inside connection in the company, you probably might never know why you were never contacted but for those who didn’t, here are five solid reasons on why you never heard back from the
Interviewers/recruiters.

Mistakes in your Resume: There is no greater turn-off to an interviewer than a mistake-riddled CV/resume. No employer wants to place responsibility into the hands of an employee who can’t even write a document about themselves without mistakes. No doubt, your CV must first create an impression to the recruiter before you are even called up for an interview. If you know pointing to details is one of your weak points, it’s advisable to proof-read it well
before the final submission or you get someone to do it for
you.
The Interviewers/Recruiters Haven’t Made Up Their Minds: Getting back to potential employees can be a daunting task to recruiters/interviews especially when all the candidates for the post all seemed to be qualified. When this is the case, be sure that the recruiters are still in doubt about the best person for the job.
3. You are simply not Qualified: Long term job search can force you to churn out sporadic CVs and resumes to positions you are not qualified for. Doing this won’t help you at all rather you can channel your energy on things you can be doing if you are unemployed

4. Poor Interview Skills: Your CV/Resume is an award-winning one. And so what? (Paying a professional copy writer to write or edit it for you is as simple as ABC. I am not saying it’s wrong. I encourage it as long as it will land you an interview). Know this, the words on the paper is not enough to land you the job the words coming out of your mouth are riddled with grammatical blunders While slang in an interview is a total no-no, try as much as possible to avoid the use of ” yeah”, ” eh eh em¦¦¦. (you would simply be perceived as not being confident and tenable to lying). This alone is enough to turn your
Interviewer(s) off and make the whole interview process
boring.

5. Your Social Media Speaks Bad About You: This might be
Strange to you. Recruiters are simply adopting ”ridiculous” means daily to disqualify applicants especially when there are two qualified candidates for a single post. A background check on your social media profile might be all the employer need to decide hiring you or not. From your LinkedIn, Facebook account to Twitter, always maintain some levels of professionalism. Using a female picture as your Display Picture when you are a male is darm unprofessional as a job seekers. You probably don’t know who is watching.

BONUS

6. Your Appearance is off the Hook: While a first impression goes a long way in endearing you to your potential employer(s) the truth remains that recruiters are continuously judging a book by its cover daily. Even though we castigate recruiters who do not do enough to see the potentials of those they are interviewing due to their shady appearance, as an applicant, try as much as possible to keep in touch with the fashion trends of your day. An eighteenth century dressing mode in this age is enough to shut the door against you.

Over to You
Off course there are so many other reasons that are not listed here, we will appreciate you sharing it with us through the comment box below.
Be Social
Reading is good but sharing is better. Someone (who you might even know) somewhere need these tips right now.
This is one of the ways you can encourage us to improve better.

Where is the mods when you need them. If na snake now

he thought he is dealing with fools

Sanchez01:
I am not criticizing him. If you read through the post, you'd notice so many inconsistencies, particularly on the use of 'CV' and 'RESUMÉ'. I might as well do that today, not to prove a point but to help people who can't tell the difference between both. My concern is that most people would innocently model their resumé after what he wrote and call it a resumé when infact it is not.

OK bro. It would really be nice if you do so cos a lot of people will keep on making the same mistake of interchanging them .

The site is not opening . Pls if u have applied can u supply us with a working link. Thanks

Thanks.

1. 10 seconds to sell or say so long

Unless your resume catches the interviewer’s eye in 10 seconds it’s over, you’re done. So the big question is how do I catch the interviewer’s eye? Here comes the best advice on how to get a best job interview you’ll ever get. Cater your resume to the best job description! I can’t stress this point enough. It’s imperative that you cater your resume to each position you apply for. And I mean taking each line on the best job description and writing a line on your resume to reflect your experience with regard to that line.

Yes, it takes more time than sending the same resume to 100′s of best jobs, but you’re far better off applying to a fraction of those best jobs with a resume specifically written for each best job. Put yourself in the interviewer’s shoes. Their best job is to hire the most qualified candidate. They’ve been given a set of qualifications to look for: aka the best job description, and that’s exactly what they’re after, so give it to them!

2. Be on time

There is no excuse for it, none! You don’t want a pissed off person interviewing you. Leave extra early, do whatever it takes. Blaming it on traffic or anything else doesn’t matter (even if it’s true).

3. Cell phone off

Obvious but easily forgotten, at least it was with 2 of the people interviewed. Double and triple check to make sure your cell phone ringer is turned off.

4. Know the company, and why you want to work there

Google the company you’re interviewing for. Learn as much as you can about the company’s mission, objectives, goals, and future plans. If you’re asked why you want to work for the company, you best answer something better then, “I like the company’s location”, which was said.

5. Bring resumes

Your interviewer(s) will likely have a copy of your resume but bring spares. It shows you’re prepared and serious about getting the best job.

6. Bring a notepad

Very few people bring a notepad with them to a best job interview. It’s a very subtle thing that makes you stand out. Take notes when appropriate.

7. Dress in a clean conservative manner

Make sure you go into a best job interview having showered and wearing clean clothes. If you like wearing cologne or perfume, don’t wear any on the day of the interview. What’s subtle smelling to you may be overwhelming to your interviewer.

8. Profiles to private

If you don’t think interviewers Google you or look you up on Facebook or MySpace, you’re crazy. Hiring managers I’ve talked to all do this, as one put it, “to weed out people who wouldn’t be a good fit in the company’s culture.” Don’t give them ammo to not like you, set your profiles to private.

9. Don’t make jokes

Too many people think they are funny when in reality they’re not. A best job interview isn’t the place to test your material. Be friendly and outgoing, save the jokes.

10. Don’t babble

When answering a question, answer the question. Don’t start out answering a question and then veer off to talk about something else. Make sure your answer directly reflects the question being asked.

11. Don’t badmouth a boss

Bad mouthing a previous boss in a best job interview is a huge negative. They may have been the worst boss in the world but expressing that in a best job interview is a huge mistake.

12. Don’t flirt with the interviewer

Common sense but needs to be stated.

13. Don’t play with your face/hair

Interviews can be a nervous experience but rubbing your chin, twirling your hair, or anything else along those lines makes you look like you’re lying or lacking confidence, both not good.

14. Less is more

Sometimes certain details of your life are better left unsaid.

15. Have good eye contact

Staring at the floor, ceiling, or wall when speaking or listening makes you appear disinterested. Again, simple and obvious but happens way more then you’d think.

16. Have goals

Maybe you don’t have any idea where you want to be in a few years professionally but figure out something to say. If you don’t and you’re asked, you appear un-ambitious, which leads an interviewer to think you’d be a lazy employee.

17. Have accomplishments

Be prepared to talk about something that you’re proud of accomplishing, whether professionally or personally (or a failure and what you learned from it).

18. Have passion

Be able to express why you want to work in that field/industry and what you do to further your knowledge (books, blogs you read). The more intelligent or informed you are the more impressive you’ll look.

19. Ask Questions

At the end of the best job interview make sure you have some questions to ask. If the interviewer doesn’t offer you a chance, ask to ask. Again, it reinforces your strong interest in the best job.

20. Send a thank you note

It’s easy to send an email but take the extra effort to mail your interviewer a hand written thank you note. It reinforces your interest in the best job. It doesn’t need to be long, just make it sincere.

There you have it. The best best job interview tips you’ll ever get. Stick to them and you’ll be on your way to getting hired!

Learning to negotiate salaries during an interview can be quite a daunting task. Most people dread it since you don’t want to aim too high and lose out on the job or aim to low and risk selling yourself short.

Speaking to Mr. Tom Kamaliki HR Manager at ICAP Kenya, he shares some of the best tips on what these right ways are and what mistakes should be avoided.

To begin with, he states that all salaries are negotiable. “People have this mentality that it is only people in senior positions who can negotiate yet I myself have had to negotiate with people like drivers and cooks. So long as a job is salaried there is always room for negotiation. The only people that I can think of who don’t have the capacity to negotiate would be entry level job seekers or the likes of graduate trainees.”

In regards to what factors determine the need for salary negotiation, off the top of his head he can think of five.

One, the most obvious one is education and experience. “That will never lack in any negotiation and is a key determinant of the amount you will get”.

Two, cost of living. Should the cost of living be high, most definitely people would want a higher salary to cushion themselves.

Three, salary history. “As an employer I would want to know what you have been earning in the past so as to determine what amount would be appropriate to offer you in the future”.

Four, rare skills and industry. If you have a skill where only you and a limited number of people in your industry can perform such as nuclear physicists then that will work to your advantage.

Five, responsibilities and scope of the work. If you have a lot of duties or your job duties are major that would be a good reason for salary negotiation. For example if you have a high risk job that may involve you putting yourself in harm’s way and really adds to the value of your organization, salary negotiation would suffice.

What about mistakes? He says that, “I have seen instances where people go out and get masters degree and then approach me that they want a salary increment since now they’re over qualified. This never ends well in their favour since I can’t give such a person a pay rise.” If you want the salary increment, that Masters degree that you’re flaunting, has to first add value to the organization. If it doesn’t, then my friend you will end up talking to yourself.

Two, people need to check the requirements of the job they have before going for further studies.“There is no point in you getting a masters in a field where an employee with a diploma can get the same job. As an employer I wouldn’t give you the pay rise you requested but would rather hire the person with a diploma. More so if he’s more qualified and experienced then you are.”

Three, the wrong perception of an organization. “Some employees leave smaller companies for bigger ones thinking they will earn more since the organization is bigger. For example if a person leaves telecommunications company A for B, since B is bigger and it made let’s say 3.5 billion before tax, it doesn’t necessarily mean that now company B will be able to offer you 1 million.”

So what tips would he give an employee negotiating their salary? One, be confident in yourself, your experience and your skills. “Don’t be desperate and blurt out that you will take any amount since the economy is bad or that you have so many problems and need the money really badly. Stay professional”.

Two, do a proper survey of how much the pay is for people in your capacity and with your skills. That way you’ll be able to gauge your range and determine your worth.

Three, don’t ignore job interviews simply because the salary they’re offering isn’t what you think it should be. “After all, isn’t that why it’s called a salary negotiation? Just attend the interview and listen to what they have to say and who knows you could get a bigger and better job with a better salary than originally offered.”

His parting shot? Be confident and be flexible. Know your worth as an employee and what you’re willing to take. If there’s some room to flex, do so and don’t be too rigid.

Being a fresh graduate with no experience can be a daunting task especially when you did not study any of the professional courses. Have you applied to various organizations with no positive feedback from them? Rather than staying idle at home playing computer games or visiting friends, you can actually make yourself to get invited for an interview. In today’s corporate world, competition is too fierce and recruiters are more and more overworked.

Even qualified applicants are not getting callbacks from the interviewers. To become more employable in such fierce competition, stop applying to all jobs you see and allocate time each week to becoming more hirable. Below is how to…

1. Volunteer:

Not only does volunteering renew your mind everyday and save you from depressive mood, it keeps you fine-tuned both mentally and otherwise to build confidence. With this you gather experience and become a better team player. Employers love volunteers. Having ” a good team player” in your CV is not enough but demonstrating it through volunteering automatically put you ahead of the other person. Volunteering increases your chances of being hired if you are strategic about it.

2. Learn Some Skills

Not only does this improve your mental turgidity but it places you in the recruiters/employers good book.When the big question “What have you been doing for the past six months” pops up, no employer wants to hear you have been searching for a job all along but immediately you tell them you have been learning some skills, your chances of being hired automatically increase. To them, you are focused and rsult-oriented. While your job search last, make every second count.

3. Network

Networking has two parts: reconnecting with your old contacts and forming new ones. Get in touch with old friends who you know are in a better position to help out. Not only this, get to social gatherings and events, mix up and socialize. After-all, networking is all about socializing. Networking will basically do one thing for you: You will establish a rapport with someone who will recommend you for a position and/or tell you about unpublished openings.

4. Remain Positive

Positive mental attitude especially is important when you are combating the stress of job seeking. Nothing else can stop your personal progress faster than a negative action. Retaining a positive attitude and a constructive outlook works like magic.

5. Stay Informed

Unemployment trauma can lead to a downward spiral but that is not enough reason not to stay informed. Staying informed embodies doing all of the above and to do this effectively, you need number 4 most. This alone will make you understand that your unemployment is just for a while. www.route45.co

A Final Thought

Being unemployed either as a fresh graduate or as a laid off worker can be spirit-sapping and so many of us have been there one way or the other. Rather than lose hope, you got to have a positive mindset. But then i will ask, what were you doing during this period that kept you going. You might want to share with us .

I am happy u are making progress... but what i'm gonna suggest might sound stupid and oyibo-ish...
Do u think you can go home one day and talk to your father about how u are feeling, Depression process heal easily when u confront the stuff u are dealing with...

In your own case, it might be the kind of parenting that u got.... if u can talk to him about how u have been feeling one cool day, maybe on your holidays.. it might help. it will be like u were psychologically asking for his permission to date.., after talking to him, u will be relieved as if nothing in the world is holding u back....

remember, It is not as if u were asking for his permission per say, it is just for the healing to be complete. since u have been living in fear about what he will do/ say all your teenage life, it might help u psychologically and it will speed up the healing process....when u subconsciously feel that nothing is holding u back in making friends...

lol... You re right... So what niche do you blog on

Am into career

Your resume is a company’s first look at what skills and accomplishments you might bring to the job. Don’t make it their last look! Be sure to avoid these major resume mistakes:

1. YOU FAILED TO TAILOR YOUR RESUME TO THE SPECIFIC JOB YOU WANT

So, even though you have the skills that the company asked for in their advertisement or posting, you left the details out of your resume. Those specific skills must be in your resume and should be prominent, preferably at the top of your resume.


2. YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION IS INCOMPLETE

A professional e-mail address consists of your first and last name. Cute e-mail addresses are not professional. If you have a common name, try putting your last name first or adding numbers after your name. Avoid the numbers 1 and 0. In some fonts, they look like letters and can confuse people reading your resume. Does your johndoe1 address refer to John Doe One or John Doel?





3. YOU LIED ABOUT, APOLOGIZED FOR, OR OVER-EXPLAINED YOUR QUALIFICATIONS

If you lack confidence in your abilities, how can an employer have confidence that you are the right person to hire? A resume should describe you honestly but also show you at your best.

4. YOU DIDN’T PROOFREAD THE LAST DRAFT

A last minute change might affect your entire resume. For example, if you add a word on page one, it might force a line awkwardly onto page two or even create a blank page. Or perhaps you corrected the spelling of a company name in one place but neglected to change it in another place. Always proofread the last draft as carefully as the first draft.

5. YOU NEVER SENT THE RESUME OUT

You had so much advice from friends and relations that you became paralyzed by the chance of making a mistake. If you never send out a resume, you will never be asked to interview. In truth, no one keeps track of how many resumes you send out or how many never receive a response. All you need is one “yes.” Send your resume out today and start asking for that “yes.”

The season of the witch is finally here in Naija. Everybody is disgrunted and angry . In short, even before ASUU, so many schools have been on spiritual and physical strikes. Every year, they keep on reneging on signing agreements they undertake. Even ASUU is sick as well. In short, everything in this Nation is sick ..

Nice one bro but you missed one thing. Adsense is very very cool and I have earned big from it too but one fact remains . And the fact is that your niche is very important . AdSense sis very good for news and entertainment sites while affiliate is ideal for tech and health blogs . Believe me, if news and entertainment sites try out affiliate especially in Naija here, they may not really earn much. Haven't you noticed that most of the richest bloggers are mostly tech bloggers who make fortunes via affiliate marketing . Adsense still rock though but one man's food is another man's poison
