You got job in UK without cv, na lie. Tarh mechie onu

I wonder o, I recently got a job here in the UK and was told before hand that while coming in for the in-person interview, I should come with hard copies of my qualifications as stated in my CV and give them the official email addresses of my professional references outside the UK

My foreign boss doesn’t know my school. He has never asked. Lol

They don't need your shiiit certificate... They know we play too much in the name of schooling.

See for you to survive the Labour force now, you must be an Agba cooker, cook your CV and your profile on linkedin, that’s what we tech guys do, although we know what we’re doing we just spice it up to attract attention and it has payed many off

I bleeped up. My interview for a frontend role with a European based Company was canceled , i was wondering why the cancelation, mailed the HR, no reply. Logged in to my LinkedIn & realized that the HR has searched & viewed my profile, mind you, I didn't paste the link to my LinkedIn, I only added my github link. I actually lied(which I am not proud of) in my CV but failed to update my LinkedIn. The discrepancies was so glaring, I have been feeling bad since.

Maybe this is a reason. Not like he didn’t ask, but he wasn’t hyped about it. I think they take certifications more seriously. They would go ahead to verify those ones.

Honesty pays...

But not in Nigeria

I have shared my experience here of how I got a job when I lied on my CV
I eventually resigned and decided to start afresh.

I got an invitation for interview at a small boutique in Ikoyi with a "clean" CV. The name of the company is A***** S****** A.M. limited. Their colour is green and orange.

The MD who is a governing member of a professional body told me to do something about my "honest" CV, that he does not like the gaps. He said I should go online to find templates. He repeated the same thing when I met with him again two months later. He did not employ me.

A month later, I applied for a job in the UK without any "CV" or satanic interview. All I submitted was a cover letter stating my educational background and skills. I was given some tasks as test and I got hired.

Bloody LIAR.... CHASING CLOUT ON NL
