NapoleonHill:
The most useless advise on the surface of the planet. 'Just have connection' as if connection is sold at Oyingbo market.

If I had listened to people as you, I probably will still be job-hunting and begging around to be recommended.

I never gave out my CV to anyone but got a good job by the Nigerian standard. Polish your CV, brush up rusty knowledge, apply and pray for luck. Connection has failed a lot of people. It will continue to.
Well you won't be the first to say this so

Have at it

ReventifyCV:
Before I go into the details of how you can land the job you want in any market – no matter the economic situation – I have something to tell you. And that’s that you need to have a clear understanding of why your current job search strategy of looking for jobs online cannot work in this modern age. Here are some of the reasons why you may have to rethink searching for jobs online.
1. Technology has made it easy for everyone and anyone to submit a job application; hence, you’re competing with thousands of qualified and unqualified candidates.
2. Everyone is job hunting, including those that have jobs. It’s funny but true. Not everyone is satisfied with their current job.
3. The average time employees stay in one job is two years, so a growing number of candidates bid for a single job opening.
4. 70% of all jobs are not posted online. You have to build the necessary network to learn about job openings.
5. Most people don’t sell themselves during the application process.
6. You could be inadvertently sending the wrong impression.
7. Applying for highly competitive roles without industry connections/referrals could be a waste of your precious time. Referrals are getting more important in the selection process than ever before.

The Complete Short Guide You Need to Help You Land your Dream Job
There’s a different way to go about online job applications. If you want to beat the competition and get the job you’ve always wanted, here are some tips to significantly increase your chances of landing the job.

1. Submit A Tailored CV
One of the first things to tweak is your CV. You have to stop the lazy habit of sending out generalized or roughly prepared CVs. If you want to land a job among the sea of applicants, your CV must speak well of you. By merely scanning through a CV, hiring managers can know if you worked hard and smart on it. Therefore, hack #1 is to create and submit a tailored, made application. Now, bear in mind that your CV must include optimized keywords specific to the job you’re applying for. Including optimized keywords will help your CV pass the ATS screening and get to the recruiter’s table. Without optimized keywords, you can as well kiss the job goodbye.

2. Find Out Who the Hiring Manager Is
Don’t just blindly apply for a job online without knowing who the hiring manager is. Do your possible best to find out who the job poster or hiring manager is. From there, try to get their email address or LinkedIn InMail and send them a personal note. You can get this information by connecting with the company’s employees on LinkedIn or finding someone in your network who can refer you. This is amongst the many reasons why I advocate for having a career plan. Connecting with the hiring manager this way requires some work, and it’s not sustainable if you’re applying to 50 companies. So, know what you want and go after it as if your life depends on it!

3. Visit the Hiring Manager at the Office
If you don’t get a response after sending the email or message, you can opt to visit the hiring manager at the office. Although this sounds creepy but trust me, I’ve done this before, and it worked! It’s a bold move you should be willing to take if you’re desperate about landing the job. All you need to say is, “I’m here for an interview for the position of _____ with _____.” The confused hiring manager would have no choice but to come to see who it is that is waiting to see them. And when you meet, you can pitch yourself! That said, you must have an already prepared pitch and memorized it so much that it flows out of your mouth naturally.

4. Find Mutual Connections on Facebook
Sometimes, the odds might be so stacked against you that nothing has worked till now. So, if the above methods don’t work, don’t give up just yet. Get on the internet and begins some crazy search. It’s a small world we live in – a world made “smaller” through the internet’s connecting power. Log in to Facebook and search for a mutual connection on Facebook. Facebook is the social media app of choice because most people have real friends and family connections on Facebook and not LinkedIn. It’s possible that you may know someone that has direct contact with the hiring manager and would be able to put in a nice word on your behalf.

5. Never Forget that Resilience Pays Off
Never forget that resilience pays off! Keep trying and looking for a way – you’ll surely find one. Be resilient at whatever you do – connecting with people, following up on job applications, and the likes. Remain positive and realistic while going after the job of your dreams!

Total jargon

Just have connection. No one cares how presentable your CV is if you have connection.

If you like use crayon and scribble your CV on toilet paper with connection (! Nigeria the job is yours .

I know people who didn't write their CV themselves because they don't even know how to create a CV ... Someone wrote it for them and submitted it with the right complimentary card attached ..

Calls were made behind the scene and the job was given to him in his house while he was playing video games...

Nigeria your resume is irrelevant, your interview question answering skills is pointless. Just have connection

It is very sad to be a witness to gross injustice....a country where the south south are shortchanged to please a nothern sect!


This PIA is more lopsided than the PIB...#Fact

What is wrong with you ? Why can't you use critical thinking on national issues and policies that make or mare lives and economic development!
Why support the implementation of something that already has shortcomings...that's DOA to people like me that will rather create a custom unique approach and development policy.
It is absurd that whilst other oil producing countries are doing better with the same oil resources the past and present leadership administrations in Nigeria makes it look like a curse because of their nepotism, incompetence and greedy nature.

Sports › Assistant Referee That Ruled Ronaldo's 'goal' Vs Serbia Hadn't Crossed Line Drop by livebyday(op): 10:44am On Apr 14, 2021
The man who failed to award Portugal a clear winning goal in their last World Cup qualifier has been relieved of his duties

Mario Diks, the assistant referee that ruled Cristiano Ronaldo's 'goal' against Serbia hadn't crossed the line, has been dropped from the Netherlands' officiating team for Euro 2020.

Ronaldo was wrongly denied a last-minute winning goal during Portugal's 2022 World Cup qualifying clash with Serbia last month, which ultimately ended in a 2-2 draw.

Match referee Danny Makkelie publicly apologised for the mistake after the game, and has now dropped Diks from his set-up ahead of this summer's European Championship.

Greetings,
Kindly help me with your sincere opinions. I'm a health professional and I plan for the opportunity to leave Nigeria to overseas where there I presume have well paying jobs. At same time, just recently landed the opportunity to work in a Federal teaching hospital. Should I continue with my plans to leave to overseas or better to keep the Federal job in Nigeria?

Thank you in anticipation.
It's a stupid question even by the most optimistic and patriotic point of view .

If you have to ask such a childish question maybe you are either lying and seeking attention or you are mentally underdeveloped.

That is discrimination and it is unfair, just because someone was a member of SAR does not mean he committed crime against humanity.

There is no proof of this allegations of crime against humanity against him, he is being discriminated because of the type of job he was doing before.
