Please What Exactly Am I Doing Wrong? by delightedgirl(op): 3:21pm On May 03, 2016
Hello house.
I keep applying for jobs posted here and other places,even the ones I have the experience required and those that states no experience required yet I have not gotten any interview invite. from January to now I will say I have applied for MORE THAN 50 jobs but no invite.it is really troubling me and I can't keep quiet anymore.
Please what exactly do you think I am not doing right? If invites were coming after applying it would have been a different case. help a confused soul.
What should I do?

Include employers requirements in your CV. Apply for only jobs you are qualified for. Give small jobs a chance, you are probably applying only to oil firms and multinationals.

Re: Please What Exactly Am I Doing Wrong? by delightz(m): 5:16pm On May 04, 2016
My little advice. ..
I have beenin that situation too..
I want you to consider the following.
1. Most of these jobs posted online are repetitions. Probably the deadline is past, but the bloggers will edit the deadline out and you will think its still available.
2. If you are sending your CV through mobile device.....try and send it to a mail you can access and see how it appears. If you can access the email, position yourself as the recipient HR. Go through the mail and judge it yourself. If you are convinced that you deserve a reply, then move to number 3.
3. Check if your potentials and soft skills are attractive at first glance of the CV.
4. Verify the authenticity of the vacancy befor applying.
Lastly, don't give up. I remember i wrote a test in January 2016 for a vacancy i applied for in june 2015.

I hope my little tips will guide the path of your resume. ......cheers.

Goodevening. Am still waiting to hear from you.hope you have not forgotten me?
Re: Please What Exactly Am I Doing Wrong? by cutextowsen(f):
Another reason why most people don't get replies is the covering letter. Most job seekers just attach their CV to emails without any reasonable covering letter. Often time I have had potential employers tell me what attracted them to me was my covering letter. Make sure you edit each covering letter to the particular position you are applying for. Don't just write please find attached a copy of my CV for your perusal, it's gives the employer an expression you are not fit for the job. Sell yourself and make sure your CV is awesome. Most times i edit the personal statement in my Resume to suit each Company am applying to. Above all pray for favour each time you send your CV out.Cheers
