My fellow nairaland, i have submitting cv here and there and fortunately for me i got an invite for an interview on tues 14th oct. My problem is how i wil appear that day, i mean d kind of shirt, tie and also is suit a must?

Black suit, white shirt and a good tie, more importantly be confident, ur dress won't give you the job but it's a plus. Don't forget to pray.

Nice...

dhope:
bross i don dey try to submit my cv to dem since but to no avail. pls can u help me wit d mail address u sent ur cv and can i also know ur course of study? thanks

Bro, to be frank I can't remember the mail nor the position I applied for, not even when I applied

Okay let me rephrase, I was wondering if anyone got the same text as I did...

Okay.... I don't know what this means but I'm yet to believe it, I got this text from 08077892646 and I quote

"You are been invited for a test and interview on Wednesday 15th by 9aw prompt, at PZcussons, 45/47 Town planning way ilupeju Indus estate. Venue-pz training school, courage room."

this doesn't make any sense to me yet.... What do you think?

For those that have not yet received a mail can check and update their profile from their portal.

Nice cover letter, though it isn't perfect. ..my opinion.

The second to the last paragraph of 'if you would like to speak about my career history et al' is not necessary. In fact, I believe all those contact details would be in your CV which should be attached as a file to your cover letter.

Also, the last paragraph of 'Thanks so much for reviewing my cover letter and resume' sounds a bit desperate, like you're begging for mercy instead of proving your merit. It could be simply written as 'Thank you. Please, find the attached (CV)'.

Thanks Much appreciated

Ok 54views no comment, I'll assume its perfect then, anyway, for those looking for a sample cover letter can make a loop from this, ensure to tailor it down to your qualifications, skill and job position being applied for, ciao!

Please I would need you honest and kind opinions about this cover letter, if you think there should be adjustments, kindly and politely state where necessary. Thanks.

achidisucre: @ vycee01 tanx v much bro

You're welcome

Bro, how's it going? Any news yet?

Please folks... Help!

It is lucrative and tedious but again nothing good comes easy, I once did it for a while back then, you can role in 10k per day, more or less depending on your route and the level of your hustle, don't forget to get your car registered, more important than anything, a good manual car will do but if u have automatic it could do, depending on your car maintenance ethics, good luck bro

Please who else got invited or has an idea about the company and possible clue on their type of test questions should please help.

Gracias!

But does stressed services ever call anyone for interview at all?

NairaMode: Lol.. With experience you will know how to tackle such issue.
Its common and its simply because HR professionals have to be diplomatic in their responses.
It is however better if they include that if you don't hear from us between this and that date then you have not been considered for the role.

Whenever I find myself in such a situation this are the method I use.

1) You will understand that I am keenly interested in this job and I would really love to get a feedback from you no matter your decision. Thank you.
That makes the HR person to commit him or herself and usually I get a response.

2) Sometimes I simply ask when do we expect to hear from you and usually they will give you a time frame. If I don't hear from them within that period then I call or send an email requesting for feedback which I most times get.

3) Lastly, during the interview process, I ask them: "What kind of employee can you not work with"? and then I get a story of who they want and what they do not want.
After their response to me, I further ask them if they feel I fit into that description.
The answer you get will generally help a smart person have an expectation of whether to keep dreaming about the job or not.

Lastly, for me it is unhealthy to keep your mind locked on a job or company after an interview or test. If you dont hear from them then contact them. Otherwise, move on and keep aspiring for a better life in this world full of awesome opportunities.

I hope I was able to help.

Awesome

chukux2: The company is Bacardi. Interview went well.

Oh really? Wow! That's nice, I wish you all the best bro. How was the traffic there? Much people?

Put on a suit ... Or better yet take off the sweatshirt, you aren't going for a sales job, i think a suit is better or a shirt and tire, and mind you, you should ignore comments that aren't helping you, what else do you expect from a thread like this,better yet enjoy the funny comments and Good luck to you, don't forget to keep us posted when you're done.

There is a previously opened thread for this, follow it up and get the required information there.

Personally I think it's a simple thing, regardless of what kind if form or agreement is there, the base point is you're selling the company's product based on commission of which me and you know that those kinda equipments are "die hard" to sell, so if you think you can sell equipments for the company on commission, well ... Accept wisely else, be advised to move on to the next one

Personally I think people that accept insurance jobs of nowadays are the MVPs, very courageous folks, I do envy that courage, no be small guts and Waka.
