Have You Ever Gotten A Job Through A CV by Dogshow(op): 2:04pm On Jan 08, 2023
Gone are the days where HRs or Recruiters employ jobseekers based on their skills, expertise and competencies. We are in an era whereby most Nigerian jobs are based on recommendations, referrals, amongst others.

Mine was even before I graduated from school that I've been rolling out multiple CVs due to the fear of the unknown, and not a single feedback up until now. I really do not know maybe there's something I'm just not doing right or is a Nigeria factor happening to everybody.

I would like fellow nairalanders to share their experiences.

CV + Cover letter ✔️
Re: Have You Ever Gotten A Job Through A CV by OboOlora(f): 10:36am On Jan 09, 2023
Yes Op!
But LinkedIn is more reliable.

Recruiters scout LinkedIn for who to recruit like yahoo boiz scout babalawo shrines for where to do strong oshole.

Update your LinkedIn page and make it ‘rich’ and watch recruiters bombard your page with offers.

Goodluck!

Be a Job creator.... its easier to find partners who would venture into your well thought out business plan which you have initiated into reality even if its 10%..

Business opportunities are thought out in the period of need.. what you raised is a problem in the society, the urge should be on seeking a solution rather than amplifying the problem..

GAP as a clothing coy was thought out because they never had his size of jean in the stores, he could have complained to the manager to mandate the company to deal with his problem.. but he started a multimillion dollar company that solved a problem..

Find the solution in your problem.. thats your grace..

Very possible to get appointments thru sending CV out. Gave jobs to many thru seeing their CVs.

try to get more relevant skills, am always interested in the skills aspect.... Its a major aspect in recruiting. And you may end up not searching for jobs once you got the necessary skills as you may end up bn the one asking for others cv

Why type of question is this? How do you intend to get one without a cv, huh (at least in most cases).

Cv + God will do the magic
