Hello Nairaland family
Please who has any idea on what Sydani Fellowship Program is all about... Can't seem to find enough information about it online.
I recently applied and passed the assessment test, I'd really like to know what's in stock for me, and what I should expect moving forward.

For fellowship applications, the winning move is not writing a long motivational essay inside your CV. Keep the CV factual: policy/research work, community projects, presentations, leadership roles, and any measurable outcome.\n\nOne sharp bullet beats three fluffy paragraphs. Example: "Led a 5-person volunteer team to collect and analyse field data for a public health campus project."

Thank you so much for this. Should be helpful. Were you once a fellow at Sydani?

How did you apply? You have a 2.1 right? Because i know sydani accepts just 2.1 and first class

.

You fit go school but bro to bro you no get sense of comprehension.

So I no reach to get first class? Which kind demeaning question be that for person wey you no sabi

One more thing that helps for fellowship-style programs: prepare 3 short stories before the next stage.

1. a problem you solved
2. a project you led or contributed to
3. a time you worked with messy information and still delivered something useful

Most applicants ramble. Short, evidence-based answers land better. If you mention impact, quantify it even roughly: team size, number of people reached, timeline, research output, event turnout, report produced, etc.

And if your CV is still generic, tailor the summary and top 5 bullets to policy, research, ops, and social impact language before the interview.
