There are avoidable mistakes. Don’t praise mistakes too much. People have lost their lives because of a simple mistake. Dele Giwa would be alive today if he didn’t open that package

That’s why u should be careful. Some mistakes are too costly. Do your research. Prepare for in case things don’t work out. Have an escape route

Talking about the mistakes to avoid when searching for Job
Most important - know what sort of country u r in and what kind of company has job. It is not one size fits all
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Common But Costing Mistakes Of Job Seekers by CanadaOrBust:
StrikeBack:
Why are people scared of making mistakes?
Mistakes birth invention!
Mistake is life.

Wow!
Some mistakes are fatal. Did u think of that?

Meanwhile here’s the rest of the article:

9. - No contact with recruiters.
Some applicants respond to emails from recruiters terribly late, sometimes, after over a year. Then they are surprised when the job has been filled. You have to participate in the process.

10. - Not searching on LinkedIn Jobs, Nairaland, #ProjectHelpYouGrow or Indeed

11 – Not practising C.A.R. technique for interviews.

12 – Not researching companies pre-interview.

13 – make excuses instead of trying to figure out solutions.

14 - Not focusing on personal satisfaction and motivation. Staying motivated is really essential in this depressing situation



The GOOD news is: All of the above mistakes are easily rectified! “Random” does not work in Job Search. Nothing replaces effort and hard work. sure you can work smarter instead of harder as long as the results are all top notch, this is what will be expected should you get a job.

Be focused, consistent, and disciplined. I promise you, that in Life, effort and perseverance pay off!
someone who’s afraid to be bold? The time may have come for you to create a plan that fits you. Be creative. Generate big breaks for yourself by going against the norm and trying what has not been done before. And above all, sidestep these common mistakes, which are only getting in your way.

Get yourself a strategy to look for a job. Are you applying both online and to recruiters? Keep notes of where you have applied and when. How well structured is your CV? So many of the points above refer to the content and format of the CV. Spend time on this. It’s critical. Always remember ATS.

Meanwhile this stuffs may hurt you terribly.
1. Listening to and believing politicians and the media who are exaggerating and sensationalizing challenges in the current job market
2. Getting professional career advice from family, friends, teachers, and other people who are not professional career development facilitators
3. A pessimistic perspective about finding satisfying employment, Viewing work is a distasteful chore and believing enjoyment is only for life outside the job
4. Holding onto negative emotions about past experiences
5. Assuming one is not able to compete for a great job because they are too old, lack experience, lack certain qualities, etc.
6. Applying for jobs they aren’t qualified for and/or don’t really want
7. Assuming just a resume or previous job search skills are enough
8. Trying to fit oneself to a job opening rather than seeking opportunities that fit .

Also, consider the interview as if you were a consultant. How can you help the hiring manager? What can you do to add value? How can you help them sleep better at night? When you start treating the interview as if you’re a consultant, you are confident and bold and the nerves melt away faster.

Christianity EtcRe: Pastor Obafemi Banigbe Resigns As A COZA Board Of Trustees Member by CanadaOrBust:
Thisis2raw:
What if that pastor is later found not guilty of that crime? an not picking sides.
The thing is he is ALREADY guilty of something. Different if it were just this one person coming forward.

Read what real Nigerians are saying below (not COZA people or paid agents) and you’ll see why:

“One striking thing about these CONSENSUAL SEX proponents is that they have forgotten something called statutory rape - that Pastor Fatoyinbo was SUPPOSED to be pastor and spiritual father to then YOUNG AND NAIVE BUSOLA. Careful GROOMING made it appear like consensual sex. Betrayal of trust on the part of a pastor should be condemned.”

“Sending a truck load of well armed policemen to invite a woman who claimed she was raped is just so very wrong. It says to the woman that the police is working for the accused, otherwise a couple of officers could have stopped by her house to deliver the letter in a none threatening way“

“A civil case local to Lagos that should be answered in a nearby police station in Lagos. How did it become a federal criminal case with lurking armed policemen from the IGP from Abuja suveiling a private citizen’s home and intimidating him to sign a paper to appear in Abuja”

“Once a cultist is always a cultist , forget either pastor or no pastor”. (I do not necessarily agree with this. I put it here to show that such view exists)

“Fatoyinbo was the high priest of a cult in Ilorin. You can’t attain such position without killing people. He should kindly confess how many people he killed.”

“There are other more prominent pastors. Ask yourself why this particular one is the one being accused by several women.”

To work night shift in a mortuary the first requirement is that u must truly and totally believe with all your heart that once a person is dead he is dead, that any movement from him means either that he is not dead or it’s a prank.

When he's ready to work, he should go for voodoo or have lots of faith, he thinks people that work there are ordinary humans..
Reminds me when we went to get my grandma at the mortuary, the attendant knocked three times and went in turning his back, told us that my grandma is so nice and doesn't disturb at all, we just said ok...looking at him sef you go know say this one don commot for human being

Why does it matter how he knew? He figured it out obviously. Anyone who has been or going through the process would know or should be able to figure it out easily. undecided
Oh, I thought he was the one that gave the answers. I only now looked at the moniker. Well, thanks a lot for patiently providing the answers and for your other posts. You’d make a good teacher.

NOA = Notice of Action
RFE = Request for evidence
NOA1 = first notice you will receive telling you your submitted petition has been received and will begin the review process. The date you get this notice becomes your priority date.
NOA2 = 2nd notice you'll receive after your petition has been reviewed telling you whether it was approved or denied.
Thank u very, very much!
Mystery still remains: how did u go from not knowing to knowing without anybody explaining to u? cheesy

Uro2011:
CanadaOrBust, I think your moniker is more demeaning
Bros, this is not for you - your time has passed. This is to new and upcoming African migrants : PLEASE DON’T BE A TOILET ATTENDANT. There are other ways of making money. U represent an entire nation if not an entire race. Not to talk of your own dignity.

Everything is not about money. PERCEPTION matters whether u r actually cleaning poo or not. “Toilet attendant” and u can’t even cover your face like night soil men used to do. See what it has led to: a white lady juxtaposing “Nigeria” with “toilet attendant” on all social media. That’s what u sold - your dignity and dignity of an entire nation if not entire race. That’s what they are “bribing” u for. Let their own people do it. They have extremely poor people amongst them, yet you’d be hard pressed to find any of them doing that job. They should be the ones doing it.

(BTW my moniker is parody. I joined NL when everybody and their failed uncle was talking of moving to Canada. I can go to Canada any time I wish but have absolutely no interest in moving there)

Now I understand. I only receive NOA1 . I am yet to receive NOA2
I really appreciate this thread.
Here is a mystery:
U wrote:
“She is a us citizen and please what is N0A1 RFF NOA2.“
Then without anybody explaining to u, u said u now understood what those letters mean. How did u suddenly understand what they mean? Many of us were waiting for the meaning of those letters and we still don’t know what they mean

This is the only time in thousands of years people have been instantly connected to spread truth and awakening.

You are not excused from duty. Did you realize the power the Godhead possesses? I am showing you the ultimate love which is way better than the crazy mob justice than is done in Africa. I say let's talk about these sins so we can begin to apply solutions. You Desire to deny deny deny and pass on the problems to the next generation.

This won't work. Mother Nature is another option available to the Godhead. Think about the incredible power Sango was reputed to possess and think about that power in another similar to Him who wore the clothing of death while still alive.
