The gospel every recruiter and resume ‘money-maker’ is dispensing today is the need for a good and perfect resume. In fact, most candidates believe something is always wrong with their resume and google on a rampage with searches like ‘How to write a good Resume’ or ‘Good Resume samples for Human Resource Jobs’. They obviously rule out the fact that something might actually be wrong with them; the way they prepare themselves and the ‘many messages’ they send when they meet the interviewer.
You may have the best resume and yet not qualified enough. Getting a job easily and even sustaining same is more than just a resume. You might get the recruiter or Human Resources person to invite you for an interview but when the chips are down, everything becomes bare!

I am presently fully involved in the Growth and Employment (GEM) Project sponsored by the Federal Government in partnership with the World Bank to help Nigeria support Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) operating in different high potential sectors throughout the country. I’m working with over 15 clients to ensure they get the best candidates. For each position, at least, I’ve had to sit (or be on phone) with three to five candidates, that’s amounting to over 50 potential successful candidates.

I would not say I’ve seen it all. But what I’m certain about is how the following points below can get anyone a job easily even without having a fantastic resume.

Attitude
Generally, how you present yourself matters. What you think about the job you’re interviewed for also matter. Also, if you will not show up for the interview or you’re running late, let the contact person know via call or email.

Drive/Excitement/Energy
Even if the salary for the position is just N20,000, show energy and drive. Do not present yourself as someone begged to accept the job or someone who already has a N1 Million salary job waiting in the pipeline. It’s even better you reject the interview invite. Do not show up moody and looking so disinterested in the job. That way, your interview ends quickly!

Natural Professionalism
Just be professional. Chat professionally. Show professional humour. Comport yourself and be open towards corrections and advice. How you behave during the interview is surely how you’d behave when you’re employed. Though you could change/hide it or put up a show, but trust good recruiters/HR managers, series of questions will fetch the real you out!

I look forward to writing more about the GEM Project recruitment experience once the whole onboarding process has been done with. There’s so much I’ve learnt and I intend to share soon.

Benjom:
A very good effort OP. You'll however do well by giving a sample to buttress your point. That's the language most applicants understand.

Wait o! You call this opportunity?

Sir, can you create 90 posts (handwritten) in a month and collect #25k with no extra money for data?

Do you know the meaning of handwritten at all?

3 per day?

Don't be wicked please...

Hahahaha!!!!!!

Some people are just funny!

So you want people to visit your blog and you just pasted that thing up there hoping that people will click.

Shior!

If you're smart enough and learn from experienced peeps you will understand that putting up a full article here and placing your link as source (even if it is .tk) might have the slight opportunity of getting to front page and having more people say:

"Wow. If such tip can come from this website, there may be more. Let me head there!"

What matters is the quality of info and not the .ga, .tk, or .cf TLD

Oga. This your article is not coordinated at all. You copied and you did not copy well. Probably you used article spinner or something and the outcome is horrible.

This is pure foolishness!!!

I still do not get it!

How can you be on blogger and throw *some* tips on WordPress?

You can never know WordPress so well if your main blog isn't built on it. You can never master WordPress to a satisfiable extent if you've not faced loads of errors...

Besides, how dare you write on website security when your *blogger* website (on mobile) is filled with pop ups and some clicks open in a new browser to show ads?

Na wa o! OP just give us the source of the article and save us the headaches of trying to relate what you do to what you claimed to have written.

The truth is, do not be afraid sir. Your perception of layoff could be wrong. If you do good work, you might be upgraded. Besides, it will take you 20 months in that school to get the 600k you can get for a month or two or three in that engineering firm.

Good piece... I guess.

Ifecoded:
Which one is "spc bulk sms component" again?
Does website template cost that much?
Website design and cost- can I not get someone that can do it for me at a cheaper amount, is it fixed?

I built a bulk SMS website for a client and I charged N55k because he is even a brother to my classmate back in school.

SPC BULK SMS Component: #15,000

Hosting: #10k

Domain: #5k

Web Design Cost: #15k

Bulk SMS Credit: 10k

Template: #Free

All these were because I had a premium template initially and because of the relationship we had.

Check out dailysmsng.com and icesms.net

Almost all bulk SMS websites in Nigeria are making use of SPC and Joomla CMS. Only a few are outstanding being coded from scratch and using something else instead of SPC

The next project DailySMSng needs is a transformation into WordPress and Android/IOS app with the ability to send SMS.

OP probably copied this post from somewhere.

You can't​ be on a blogger and then write​ on plugins for WordPress. Even if you claim to have used both platforms, that's a BIG lie.

Good article though from the OW (Original Writer)
