I never receive any job interview. upon say i dey update and even change my profile pics. infact all this thing u mentioned i have done them all!!!! could it mean.....my ancestor

hahahahahaa, it is more than updating your dp, you have to be active like every other social network platform. Most jobs are posted to Feeds and Timelines, so dont always expect HR to DM you, Get skills and Experience, getting jobs will be the easiest thing in life, trust me!

lol, I guess you also read many testimonials above of those that got jobs via LinkedIn.
I can relate to your point but as a smart kid, you can never be a victim.
Most times they impersonate big profiles and they are not HR's.
Their Profiles has little or no information about themselves.
I can go on and on, The bottom line is simple, an intelligent person can never be duped like MMM did to some

phiszo:
Fraudsters are so many in LinkedIn

no need to tears dear, more and better opportunities are heading your way, keep developing yourself ... very soon you will smile, ok

Have you ever wondered how your friends get invitations to job interviews and subsequently job offers?

One of the secrets of getting a good job offer lies in understanding the most appropriate time to send out resumes.

As a young graduate or a specialist in any career path, it is important to understand the times when companies are most likely for recruit new staffs and be well positioned to apply during those time.

Understanding the timing will increase your chances of getting job offers as you will know when to search, what kind of job opening will be available at a particular time. Job seekers who make contact right at the start of these cycles have the best chance of being hired.


There are 2 major times if the year when organizations are most likely to recruit new staffs.
There are; early in the year and mid-year, and here is the reason for these times.

Most established organizations and top brands hold their Annual General Meeting by the end of the year and another general meeting in the middle of the year. These times provides an opportunity for the top management executives to assess the overall organization growth, new investment opportunities, and needs of the company in areas of personnel.

The management team may realize the need to increase staff strength based on the assessment done or based on new investment opportunities they intend to venture into.

Hence, as part of the action points to be closed in the next half of the year, recruitment will be the task for the HR managers. It could be a graduate trainee position or a position for an experienced personnel.


Howbeit, be aware that January to March and July to September are critical times when most organizations and top brands recruit new staffs. This will aid your planning and preparation for new challenges in your chosen career path.

So if you missed this early recruitment plan for the next great opportunity to join that top brand by July/August.

Happy New Week !

importexpert:
When we Consider the skyrocketing increase in cost of living in Nigeria, one will have no option than to shed tears for both the unemployed and under employed masses. Instead of news of 20,000, 5000 or 500 people being employed, the most common news these days are either zenith bank sacking 1200 employees or first bank sacking 2400 employees or oil companies sacking 18500 people and so on. This series of downsizing by Nigerian companies is becoming too alarming and Nigerians need to embrace online alternatives for creating a sustainable income.

Today, I will be sharing with the Nairaland community 3 legitimate Online businesses A Nigerian Can Start Today

1. Affiliate marketing

this is one of the most profitable online businesses on the internet. The ideology of affiliate marketing is simple. X sells a product, I recommend the product to Y, Y buys the product based on my recommendation and X pays me a commission for bringing him a sale.
Successful affiliate marketers in the world make millions of dollars annually doing nothing but affiliate marketing. The earning potential in this business model is very high as the likes of Zack Johnson, Mark ling, john chow and many other affiliate marketers earns upward of two million dollar annually. That is about eight hundred million naira yearly.
Nigerians can learn and utilize this business model. A major advantage affiliate marketing have over most other online businesses is that it can serve as a lifetime career if one choose to and it can be easily automated to run hands free.

2. Freelancing

This is also a very profitable online venture. The ideology behind freelancing is also simple: X is a programmer or a good writer, Y hires X to write articles for him or program, Y pays X for the services he has rendered and Y use the work as if he actually did it himself.
This is basically what freelancing is all about. You work for big companies/corporations/individuals using your special skills and you are paid for the services you rendered. This special skills range widely from translations of one language to another to singing a song, to programming, to writings of various kinds, to graphic designs, to customer service, data entries, accounting etc.
One of the major advantages of this online business model is that you do all your works from where ever you feel like, usually from the comfort of your home. Few major setbacks to this business model are that it cannot be easily automated and it is relatively time consuming.



3. Blogging

you can build a continuous income source by becoming a blogger. Simply discussing about a popular topic has the potential of driving lots of traffic to your blog, you can incorporate various sources of income to your blog.
This online business model appeals to new internet users. Success in blogging requires a lot of hard work. I am still researching the estimated population of bloggers in Nigeria but in United States alone, there are over 40million bloggers out of which only about 2% are considered very successful. By being very successful I mean being able to live the kind of lifestyle they want off their blog.
If you want to go into this business model you should be fully prepared. You should know that you are approaching an uphill task so tighten up your belt.

Conclusion

I know that the question in your mind now is which is the ideal online business among this business models. The truth about these online businesses is that they are all profitable if you are able to pay the price.

Personally, I am into affiliate marketing and partially into freelancing. The major reason why I choose the affiliate marketing business model is that it meets my personal ideal online business criteria. The criteria are:

I should be able to operate my business from anywhere. All the 3 models meet this criteria.
I should earn money while I am asleep or on a vacation. Affiliate marketing and blogging meets these criteria.
It should be easily automated to run hands free without much of my interference. Only affiliate marketing meets this best.

Pick up your business model and work on it

I will reveal to few lucky Nairalanders how to gain financial freedom through affiliate marketing in 2017. Join us at www.affiliatejagaban.com/p/jagaban.html

2hrs! i wan die ni

you have said it all, some of these guys shouting Tinubu will never go near his escort not to talk of benefit anything from him.

I will never vote for any presidential candidate above 50 years of age

It is very clear, that states experiencing some level of development despite recession are governed by a younger generation.

Nigeria needs same not these old men, with 1890 mentality

TPAND:
What is amazing to me is people throw support this guy called Tinubu. It's a catastrophic disgrace to the young generation that a man with no moral values, a power-intoxicated mafia expresses his ambition to run for president of this great nation. A man who in a sane cline should be languishing in jail. For how long will the wrong set of cursed leaders continue to rule us. Democracy has failed us, we need a new system of government. Democracy is not working for us

It baffles me when people say Tinubu made lagos. For your education, Lagos has been the economic capital of Nigeria even before Tinubu. In the history of Nigeria, there has never been a state more relevant in national and economic affairs as Lagos. With all the IGR gets, it's mediocre achievement we celebrate. The things money can do. It's high time we need to wake up in this country and stop celebrating mediocrity. Compare Lagos to any prominent economic city of other countries in Africa, you will know we are far back.

Amazingly, some gullible NFAs who call themselves young people and leaders of tomorrow will chant and hull placards around the streets come 2019 in support of Tinubu. The same eejits that voted a man with an untraceable educational history as president in the 21st century. If there's any justice in the world, tell me in just mind, can it be well with Nigeria? Young people should wake up, our time is now. Enough of government by retirees.
