Thank you very much OP for this |
I asked my boss how the interview with one of my referrals had gone. He had delegated it to my senior colleagues. This was their feedback: “he lacks depth” “if we are to consider him at all, he won’t be worth up to consultant level” “i will not be recommending him” “he has been out of consulting in a while and appears shallow”. I told my boss that he should see him still and keep an open mind. My boss met with him and liked him instantly. Few months into his resumption he is suddenly the star of the unit, most presentations to our client board had to be made by him, he is a compulsory addition to new projects, he was dependable to a fault and even got accelerated promotions and benefits even I didn’t have and might I add he also became so close to the so-called colleagues who never thought he was worth the chance. Sometimes we sit on a self-created and praised pedestal thinking we are the master of all, but that trait alone blinds us to the potential of others. See beyond yourself and give others that chance that someone once gave you. My name is Tope and there is nothing I love more than seeing the rejected become the chief corner stone of excellence. #MondayMotivation #Leadership #Chances #BelievingInPeople Tope Azeez-Stephen Temitope Azeez is the Head, Talent Management of Jumia spanning Jumia Travels, Jumia Market, Jumia Deals, Jumia House, Jumia Food and Jumia Cars.

Sirhethat12:There is always one something for everyone in any field of study. Get close to final year course mates, ask. Meet digital inclined lecturers in your department. |
littlewonders:Exactly! That's the angle I'm shooting from. Get skilled especially in ICT before you gain admission, during your school years, during IT, whilst waiting for NYSC, during the long break... My boss told me something. He said the IT companies are soon going to breakforth destructively as Africa is almost ripe and all these oil and gas firms will not be seen as haven for the best pay. There was a time Banks attracted great talents like mad, today, the reverse is almost the case. |
SO all, go get skilled in ICT today lalasticlala Seun |
LinkedIn Releases Top Companies to Work For in the World If Jobberman released Top Companies to Work For in Nigeria, it is therefore apt that LinkedIn focused on a wider scale - the world. LinkedIn has released global companies top talents in the world want to work for. The Top Companies list is based on the billions of actions taken by LinkedIn's millions of members and looks at three main pillars: interest in a company's jobs, interest in a company's brand and employees, and employee retention. LinkedIn and Microsoft are excluded from the list. Microsoft is a parent company to LinkedIn METHODOLOGY How the list was assembled The methodology leverages metrics like: Job applications: At what rate are people viewing and applying to job postings featured on LinkedIn? Engagement: How many non-employees are viewing and asking to connect with a company’s employees? How many professionals are viewing a company’s career page? What's the reach and engagement of a company's content? How are a company's follows performing? Etc. Retention: Are employees sticking around for at least a year? Top 25 Companies to Work For in the World 1. Alphabet Creating the future: For those who want to tackle big issues, some division of Alphabet is working on it: from putting self-driving cars on the road to fighting extremism online. As CEO Larry Page says: “You need to stay a bit uncomfortable to stay relevant.” Global headcount: 72,000 Innovation focus: More than 27,100 employees globally work in research and development, and Alphabet devoted $13.9 billion last year to R& . That dedication has produced new products like Google Home and cutting-edge research like a deep learning algorithm that can detect a specific eye disease.2. Amazon The everything store: Amazon is transforming how the world shops and consumes entertainment. This past year, Amazon delivered its first package by drone in the UK, launched Prime Video in India and opened brick-and-mortar stores in the U.S. Global headcount: 341,400 “The best place to fail”: “People are often surprised to hear that working at Amazon is much like working for a series of startups. We’re constantly piloting, testing and launching new products, businesses and services,” Amazon told LinkedIn. “We take risks and make big bets, and when we fail, we apply the lessons learned and keep moving.” 3. Facebook The global network: Facebook believes it’s only ever 1 percent done, an ethos physically reflected by its headquarter offices. The unfinished look is “on purpose,” said CEO Mark Zuckerberg. “When you enter our buildings, we want you to feel how much left there is to be done in our mission to connect the world.” Global headcount: 17,000 Application advice: "Know or explore your passion around connecting the world, because it is at the heart of every single thing we do here," says Miranda Kalinowski, Facebook’s Global Head of Recruiting. "Once you know it, be able to demonstrate it.” 4. Uber Driving forward: Uber is one of the most valuable startups, worth some $68 billion. While culture issues have plagued the company over the last several months, it still attracted outsize attention from global job seekers looking to boost their careers. LinkedIn’s Caroline Fairchild talked to experts as well as former and current employees to find out why Uber keeps attracting top talent even as its culture faces questions. Check out her latest update. Global headcount: 12,000 Get acquainted: Worldwide nUbers, as new employees are dubbed, descend on the company’s headquarters for the three-day Uberversity program where they get to meet directly with the leadership team. 5. Apple The work: Apple designs and develops some of the world’s most-popular gadgets, and it’s not done innovating yet. CEO Tim Cook recently debuted the company’s newest innovation: the HomePod. He also plans on doubling the size of Apple services, like iTunes, Apple Pay and more, over the next four years. [/b]Global headcount:[/b] 110,000 Retail reach: Nearly 67,000 of Apple’s employees work in its 463 stores around the world. These positions don’t lack the perks of a traditional corporate gig: They get the same benefits, including shares in the company and education aid. 6. Salesforce The work: Salesforce is famous for bringing customer relationship management to the cloud, and now it’s pushing CRM further into the future by pairing it with artificial intelligence via its new Einstein AI. It’s creations like this and Einstein Vision (which enables image recognition) that reflect CEO Marc Benioff’s drive for ongoing innovation. Global headcount: 25,000 Island life: Benioff’s fascination with Hawaii informs Salesforce’s “Ohana” culture. (It means "family" in Hawaiian.) 7. McKinsey & Company Worldwide influence: From healthcare to retail, McKinsey staffs employees who are the best fit, regardless of location. About 40 percent of its consultants have at least one international engagement per year. “Our approach is to bring the best expertise to clients no matter where in the world that expertise is,” the firm told LinkedIn. Global headcount: 25,000 Personal time: Want to learn a new language or go on a dream trip? McKinsey allows its consultants to take off an extra five to 10 weeks per year beyond vacation time to pursue personal interests and passions. 8. LVMH Luxury across the board: LVMH brings the French concept of “art de vivre” to consumers around the world via its 70 luxury houses across a range of sectors like fashion and leather goods, perfumes and cosmetics, watches and jewellery and wine and spirits. Global headcount: 135,000 Moving on up: With such a wide range of brands, LVMH offers a lot of internal mobility. Nearly 75 percent of management positions are filled through internal promotions. 9. L’Oréal Beauty queen: L’Oréal may have 36 brands in 140 countries, but it’s best known for one thing: cosmetics. The company raked in $28.6 billion in sales last year, making it the top beauty company worldwide. Global headcount: 83,000 Rising the ranks: Attn: students and recent grads. Thanks to the company’s philosophy that you are “never too young to lead,” 30 percent of L’Oréal’s hires last year were young graduates. L’Oréal’s current CEO even started as an intern himself in 1978. 10. Dell Technologies Digital transformation: Dell Technologies has come a long way since founder and CEO Michael Dell created his first PC in 1985. Thanks to the company’s $60 billion acquisition of storage provider EMC in September, it’s now a global IT leader with seven tech powerhouses under its hood. Global headcount: 145,000 Flexible working: If you want to work from home, set your own hours or even change career paths, Dell can make it happen. The company aims to have at least half its employees participate in its Connected Workplace program by 2020. 11. Cisco Connecting the unconnected: Cisco’s husband and wife co-founders created the multi-protocol router when they weren’t able to email each other from their respective offices. Today, Cisco continues to shape the future of the Internet via cutting-edge technology, including products and services like WebEx, OpenDNS, and its Tetration Analytics. Global headcount: 73,000 Giving back: Cisco employees get five days off in addition to regular paid time off that they can use to volunteer. Last year, Cisco employees logged 227,000 volunteer hours. 12. Tesla Energy innovation: Not only is Tesla leading the transition to sustainable transportation with its electric vehicles, the company is also making strides in renewable energy generation and storage through its investments in solar panels and products like Powerwall. Global headcount: 30,000 Fun-filled future: Because Tesla is not yet profitable, its employees don’t receive the kind of extravagant perks that the tech industry is known for. CEO Elon Musk says that will soon change. In a recent email to employees, Musk revealed free frozen yogurt stands and an electric pod roller coaster are on the horizon. 13. Oracle On cloud nine: Oracle has been making a move to the cloud: bringing its traditional software businesses online to better rival the likes of Salesforce and Workday. The move seems to be paying off. Third quarter sales of its cloud-based products rose 62 percent. Global headcount: 135,000 Corporate citizenship: Oracle takes social responsibility to a whole new level. It built a public charter school on its headquarters campus and recycled or reused 99.5 percent of its electronic waste in its most recent fiscal year. 14. Siemens At the core: Siemens’ breadth is impressive, including divisions devoted to energy, healthcare and financial services. Across those units, the company is innovating new ways to power the world, automate work and push into software and data analysis. Global headcount: 351,000 Staying power: Siemens employees stick around. The company has the longest average employee tenure of any on this list: Siemens workers stay 8.6 years, on average, according to LinkedIn Premium Insights data. 15. Unilever In your pantry: Consumer goods behemoth Unilever is parent to more than 400 well-known brands used by billions of people each day from Suave to Lipton to Lifebuoy. The company reports that 57 percent of its business is in emerging markets. Global headcount: 169,000 Cool job: Being a “Tea Expertise Director” at Unilever includes tasting 1,000 cups of tea per day and touring fellow employees through tea plantations. 16. The Walt Disney Company The happiest place: From worldwide theme parks to consumer goods to hitmakers on the big and small screen including ABC, Marvel and Pixar, one important element connects Disney’s multiple divisions: storytelling. “Disney employees play an important role in bringing to life what others only dream of,” the company told LinkedIn. Global headcount: 195,000 Calling all fans: Trainers on the Disney English team use Disney stories and characters to teach children English in China. 17. Johnson & Johnson The prescription: Johnson & Johnson’s mission to improve lives through healthcare is carried out by a family of 275 companies around the world, including pharmaceuticals and consumer products. It’s a decentralized structure, meaning each company has autonomy to make the best decisions for its market. Global headcount: 126,000 Uniting purpose: The company’s 70-year-old credo emphasizes responsibility — to healthcare professionals, employees, communities and stockholders. 18. IBM Building the future: “I believe the most disruptive and transformative trend is now in front of us, and it’s cognitive,” says IBM CEO Ginni Rometty. IBM is ready to pounce on this new era with computer systems like Watson that know how to learn and reason. Global headcount:c 380,000 [b]R& : IBM employs its own technology in the hiring process, using Watson to match resumes to open positions. 19. Deloitte Get packing: At auditor and consultancy Deloitte, international experience goes beyond overseas travel. Employees may take on assignments abroad, transfer to one of the more than 150 countries and territories Deloitte operates in or manage global teams. Last year, the firm saw more than 6,000 such arrangements. Global headcount: 244,400 Hit the books: Leadership center Deloitte University has campuses in the US, Singapore, Belgium, France, India and Canada where employees can boost their professional skills. 20. PepsiCo Snack attack: PepsiCo’s 22 iconic brands, like Lay’s, Gatorade and Tropicana, are sold in more than 200 countries and territories around the world. The company’s now on a mission, dubbed Performance with Purpose 2025, to develop healthier product options, limit its environmental footprint and support a diverse workforce (including ensuring pay equity). Global headcount: 264,000 Innovation: PepsiCo has increased its spending on R& by 45 percent over the past six years, creating new products that have generated revenues of more than $5 billion annually, on average, since 2013.21. Accenture Problem solving: Accenture is one of the largest professional services firms in the world with consulting, digital, technology, strategy and operations projects in more than 120 countries. It works with 75 percent of the Fortune Global 500 across more than 40 different industries. Global headcount: 401,000 Family friendly: In the U.S., Accenture offers 16 weeks maternity leave, 8 weeks of primary caregiver leave, up to one year of local work after returning from leave and free breast milk shipping for mothers who choose to travel for work. 22. EY Accounting and beyond: EY, one of the “Big Four” accounting firms, provides assurance, advisory, transaction and tax services to companies in more than 150 countries. The firm is growing rapidly and is expected to reach a global workforce of 300,000 employees by 2020. Global headcount: 250,000 Making an impact: EY in Germany launched a pilot refugee internship, a four-month training program where participants are paired with mentors and offered a full-time job at EY after completing the program. 23. Schneider Electric Powering the world: France-based Schneider Electric creates the technology behind electric car charging stations, solar power storage systems and energy management software for factories and office buildings. It’s been in business for over 180 years and it has projects in over 100 countries. Global headcount: 144,000 Making moves: Schneider Electric’s Global International Mobility Center helped 400 employees make the move to a new country in 2016. It’s part of the company’s overall strategy to encourage wider transfer of knowledge and skills among its employees. 24. Adobe Design standard: Adobe is the reigning king of creative software, and it doesn’t look to be letting go of that title anytime soon. The company has made a successful transition to the cloud, with its Creative Cloud suite boasting over 9 million subscribers, according to analyst estimates. Global headcount: 15,000 Adobe Kickbox: To encourage employee creativity, Adobe offers an “innovation in a box” kit that contains a $1,000 prepaid credit card, a Starbucks gift card, a candy bar, and a few instructions to any staffer who is interested in testing out new business ideas. The company has given out more than 1,000 boxes. 25) General Electric A return to its industrial roots: GE has undergone a massive transition in recent years, returning to its core industrial businesses, selling off pieces of its finance arm and doubling down on what it refers to as the “industrial internet.” The company is now focusing on turbines, aircraft engines and big data rather than credit cards and personal loans. Global headcount: 295,000 Leadership training: GE runs eight different leadership programs, giving recent graduates hands-on experience and training in a wide range of disciplines, including engineering, human resources, operations and finance. Some 25 percent of GE senior management graduated from a GE leadership program. So there, you've got it! One noticeable thing about the list is that Tech companies are making the rounds and doing big things while companies in the oil and gas sector are nowhere to be found. Coca-Cola did not make the list too whilst their arch rival. Pepsi is sitting boldly on the chart. The only Consumer Goods firm is Unilever and only one Healthcare firm made the list. Another interpretation of this list is that ICT skills are becoming important daily, starting from the most basic like knowing how to efficiently operate the computer and using the Microsoft Word Packages to the seeming complex ones like programming and writing codes. https://www.acegoals.com/linkedin-releases-top-companies-work-world/ |
Here's what you can do. Do not reapply immediately you get their message. Wait for up to a 3 days or one full week before you reapply. Your About Page texts are overlapping the text box for it. That is not good user experience. Some posts on the homepage are full posts. You need to cut them by adding the <--more--> tag Your Contact Page is without text at all. What do you want the crawler to crawl? Include some text. Be creative and say something about where users can reach you on social media. Include your facebook, twitter and Instagram links. The contact form should be the last on that page Finally, make sure each category clicked on has enough text and not just one post or empty page Then reapply after 3 to 7 days. |
taiwofawole:Sir, I disagree. The blog is hosted on Blogger does not make it a . Blogger is a popular CMS like WordPress. Countless adsense accounts have been approved for those using blogger as host. Even when you still have ..com, you can still approve adsense but it will be non-hosted i.e cannot be used on a .com domain. |
hardhehh1:You need a top level domain like a .com or .com.ng or .org or .org.ng |
Britishcoins:Easier and better with laptop or PC |
If you are looking to purchase Adsense, I have one I just approved last week and I'd want to sell. Contact me on 08069278385. Please, note that I will not have the method of giving you access to the account. Many are good hackers who take over the account in a jiffy. Instead, I'd prefer we do a face to face meet up and you see the account for yourself. I will give you a popular address (where I work) on the Island in Lagos to come see for yourself (I work with a popular firm) |
24hourNigeriane:Wow! Respect!!! You have a nice blog Ride on ma'am |
Garrirevenge:Adsense is an advertising program for publishers whereby Google serves ads to publishers website and they get paid whenever anyone clicks on the advertisements |
Britishcoins:I agree with you, sir. But don't you think one of the reasons the delay is there is because you still have some links on your menu that came with the theme and you have not removed them? When adsense visit such links, they find no content. The best you can get is insufficient content because every link must have content. If there is no content on any link or category, remove them and insert them again after approval. Just an advice. |
Igboblog:Hello, When this type of message comes, that means you are doing everything right. What google means here is that they have not gotten enough words to form a niche for you. For example, if your website talks on Relationship and also School issues, for google to activate adsense on your account, they need enough text that concerns a particular niche so that the crawler can send the right message to google servers on the type of ADs to serve. Keep writing or write up to 3 long articles concerning a particular topic and you'll be fine. |
Igboblog:Your pages are not enough or insufficient content? |

Most times it comes as a surprise to job candidates when job interviews end so quickly. It could be a good sign as well as a bad one. Research conducted in 2015 by a team of researchers from Old Dominion, Florida State, and Clemson reveals that decisions whether or not to hire a candidate are made in less than 15 minutes of the job interview. In fact, in over 65% of the time, decisions were made in less than 5 minutes. So, why do some interviews end so quickly? Why would managers make seemingly 'hasty' decisions and leave the candidate to a bewilderment of "what went wrong?" Having had/held several interviews myself, I can really place a hand on possible reasons why job interviews can end so quickly. It is also important to understand that these reasons are 'likely' reasons and might not be actual reasons why job interviews could be very short. 4 Reasons Your Last Job Interview Ended So Quickly You Came Late It is not really professional to be late for an interview. Doing such is giving the impression that you're a man/woman of excuses who might not be able to get the job done on-time (deadlines). Besides, it puts a strain on the interviewer's time schedule as other things have to be done. It is a lot worse if other candidates have been interviewed before your arrival. You could be asked to leave or your interview could be cut so short for lack of time or total disinterestedness in having interviews anymore for the day. The right candidate has already been chosen Umpteen times, this happens. The reason HR Managers do not just invite one person for an interview (despite the fantastic CV) is that they want to have alternatives should a candidate do not fit into the company culture. Most do have behavioural interviews with candidates and if the right candidate has already been decided on before you came in, yours could be a mere formality. This is more likely to occur in 'one-man' businesses where the HR Manager is the CEO and at the same time the Account/Finance person - basically small organisations. Mere Formality Mere formality for interviews means the interview is just done for record purposes and not to select the right candidates. In Nigeria, this happens a lot, especially with government establishments. The right candidates know themselves or the 'lucky' candidates might have even resumed work thereby making the interview a cover up - a representation of a due process that is never to the letter. So if your interview ended so quickly and you sensed you were not asked some vital questions or no meaningful conversation occurred, I'm sorry, you might have just attended a Mere Formality Interview. Then again, it could be the other way around. You Aced it too Early ...which is quite good. However, it is rare to have short interviews with suitable candidates except if it's a follow-up or second, third, fourth stage of the interview - nothing is foolproof. The second interview I had with my present boss did not take up to 10 minutes. Yet, candidates can be deemed 'not suitable' on the second interview after being successful at the first interview. |

Are you looking for a job alert subscription service or are you simply tired of MTN job alert subscription fee you’re forced to pay even without a desire to continue with the service after a certain period of time? Then I bring you good tidings! Read on. There’s nothing that can be lost on mobile when it finds a way through the Short Message Service (SMS) to get to your device. No matter how intrusive (or extrusive? Nahhh. This is not Geology class) it can be, you must read/open it, right? At least to get rid of that tiny message notification sign on your android before you miss an important message (say… an interview?) just by ignoring them! That makes mobile SMS a viable means of being on top of your job search or career journey. You can now get live job alerts via SMS without subscribing to your mobile network service provider. It’s as easy as sending a message to a certain code and getting all updates. So let’s get with it How to get Job Updates via Job alerts Subscription for Free In order to job updates or alerts via SMS, follow the following steps 1) Determine which jobs website or career portal you’d love to keep a tag on or get updates from. For this purpose, we shall use Jobberman. 2) Go on to twitter, search and get the Twitter Username of Jobberman (i.e Jobbermandotcom) 3) Go onto your mobile device and type ‘Follow Jobbermandotcom’ (without the quotes). Now send to 40404 You’re DONE! You’ll receive a message immediately that you’re now following updates from Jobberman and how you can opt out should you want the updates no more WHAT DID YOU JUST DO? You might want to ask what you just did. Don’t worry, I’ll tell you. Basically, you’ll be getting SMS of updates from Jobberman but this service is powered by Twitter.com. Twitter’s 40404 service enables anyone to get alerts via SMS on the updates of whoever they are following on twitter if they subscribed to it. Whether the subscriber is on twitter.com or not, anyone can use the service Also, this means any update from the @Jobbermandotcom’s handle will get to your phone and not just job alerts. But I believe since Jobberman is concerned with recruitment and job updates, you should get relevant alerts via SMS. Besides, you could opt out any time. So go on, subscribe to any twitter handle (e.g @Acegoals) and get alerts relevant to your career or job search. To your success! Please, share. Others could benefit too. https://www.acegoals.com/jobs-alert-subscription-2017/ |
ojochidem:Okay. Thank you sir for the response. Before the 'Notify' issue, I usually send to my number and it was not the same. My number is not on DND. I have contacted the makers of SPC4 and they are aware and are working on it. |
Wait o guys Am I the only one having issues with SPC4? Or is it that I am getting more users that everytime they want to send a message, there is one issue or the other and I have to assist? Please, who else is having the issue of ALL SMS being sent carry 'Notify' as sender ID instead of the sender ID used. Both mine and that of my resellers. Today alone, I have spent the whole evening trying to solve issues, especially with large volume SMS. The issue is not with my providers. I use two foreign jet speed providers. Tested on both, the 'Notify' is still the sender ID For the past two weeks I have contacted SPC4 support like more than 3 times for 3 different issues with SPC4 Abeg make una talk o! Abi una customers no dey send SMS ni? |
Etiquette bah? |
