[size=8pt][/size]Feeling overwhelmed by the thought of creating or updating your CV? You're not alone! A powerful, compelling Curriculum Vitae (CV) or resume is your golden ticket in the competitive job market. It's more than just a document; it's your personal marketing campaign, designed to showcase your unique skills, experience, and potential to employers. This guide will walk you through creating a standout CV, step-by-step, and introduce a tool that can make the process even smoother. Step 1: Understand the Power and Purpose of Your CV Before you type a single word, grasp this: your CV's primary goal is to land you an interview. It’s a concise, persuasive summary of your qualifications – your education, skills, and professional journey – tailored specifically to the job you're applying for. Think of it as your professional highlight reel. Step 2: Choose the Right CV Format for Maximum Impact The structure of your CV can significantly influence how recruiters perceive your application. Here are the most effective formats: Reverse-Chronological CV: The most popular and widely accepted format. It lists your work experience starting with your most recent position and working backward. Ideal for showcasing a consistent career path and growth. Functional CV: This format emphasizes your skills and abilities rather than a strict chronological work history. It's a great option if you're changing careers, have employment gaps, or want to highlight specific expertise. Combination (Hybrid) CV: As the name suggests, this blends elements of both chronological and functional formats. It typically starts with a strong skills summary followed by a chronological work history. This offers flexibility and can be highly effective. Step 3: Lay the Foundation: CV Must-Haves Every strong CV needs these core components: Full Name & Contact Information: Make it prominent and easy to find. Include your phone number, professional email address, and optionally, your LinkedIn profile URL. Compelling Personal Statement (or Professional Summary/Objective): This is your 2-3 sentence elevator pitch. Tailor it to each job. For experienced candidates: A "Professional Summary" highlighting key achievements and expertise. For entry-level candidates or career changers: An "Objective" focusing on your career goals and how you can contribute. Step 4: Spotlight Your Skills & Experience – Where You Shine! This section is the heart of your CV. Work Experience: List in reverse-chronological order. For each role, include: Job Title, Company Name, Location, Dates of Employment. Use bullet points to list responsibilities and, more importantly, quantifiable achievements. Use action verbs (e.g., "Managed," "Developed," "Increased," "Led" . For example, instead of "Responsible for sales," try "Increased quarterly sales by 15% through strategic outreach."Skills: Include a dedicated section for relevant hard skills (e.g., software proficiency, languages) and soft skills (e.g., communication, teamwork, problem-solving). Education: List your degrees in reverse-chronological order, including the institution name, degree obtained, and graduation date (or expected date). No Work Experience? No Problem! If you're a recent graduate or have limited professional experience, focus on: Internships and volunteer work Academic projects and relevant coursework Extracurricular activities and leadership roles Transferable skills gained from any of the above. Step 5: The Golden Rule – Tailor Your CV to Every Single Job One-size-fits-all CVs rarely impress. Analyze the Job Description: Identify the key requirements, skills, and keywords the employer is looking for. Customize: Mirror that language in your CV. Highlight the experiences and skills that are most relevant to that specific role. This shows the employer you've done your homework and are a genuine fit. Keyword Optimization: Many companies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to scan CVs for relevant keywords. Incorporating these increases your chances of passing this initial screening. Step 6: Proofread, Edit, and Polish – Perfection is Non-Negotiable Typos, grammatical errors, or inconsistent formatting can create a negative impression. Proofread Meticulously: Read your CV multiple times. Read Aloud: This helps catch awkward phrasing. Use a Grammar/Spell Checker: But don't rely on it solely. Get a Second Opinion: Ask a friend, mentor, or career advisor to review it. Fresh eyes can spot mistakes you might have missed.

There should be balance!!! because they dominate internet and everything u find it hard to hear Russia side of the story.. It is now I understand why china wat they did by providing alternative to western media and banning dem in dia country. djon78: |
Why is everyone expecting russia to service their debt, when the same people they are oweing money are holding alot more dan wat is been owed. If america can hold dia money illegally, ofcus Russia can decide not to pay dem too. it is dia own form of sanction on dia corporation and individuals who are the bond holders. When america/west does it, it is right.. when Russia does it is wrong Well u see d build up to the debt default by Russia by the west media agency, it is anoda propaganda agenda to negatively portray Russia... You will soon see news that says Russia has defaulted (fake defaultment)which is a lie because they do have money to pay. See d mistake Russia made was holding half of dia reserve in western country, they have learnt and all countries watching too have learnt (except Nigeria �)... It is time to diversify from USA dollar as someone suggested up dia. Final conslusion, we as a country think we are free, with d power wielded by d western country towards a country as powerful as Russia, I really hope we don't disagree on anything because dats is d end of us as a country ecomically. So are we really sovereign if our money with dem can be seized anytime !! Dmacqh: |

I have been using Django framework for man than 5 years now, Django works perfectly for web, I mean perfectly. Django has a robust templating engine, awesome ORM and uses the MVT architecture which makes you write safe and secure code. You don't have to worry about writing complex queries, as the ORM does the heavy lifting for you. I have used both Laravel and Django and i can tell you Django ORM is a lot smoother and versatile than Laravel Eloquent. Django also have a powerful library that lets build restful api for your frontend applications like mobile apps. Because it has existed for a long time, alot of repetition has been abstracted away eg the class based view , Viewset on drf etc, so you write smaller and cleaner code for problem that tends to repeat itsef(which happens alot in programing) Learning python easily open you for other opportunities like data science, machine learning etc compared to PHP which is only used for the web. The only limitation of Django in the web is the support for websockets , but django channels is here to solve that anyways(Which i have used). All in all you cant go wrong by using python for the web. And if at all you don't want to choose python please don't go for php, it is a dieing language , go for something like node js, goland, java etc those are here to stay |

Deway52:The thousand he is employing is not enough, Until he employs the whole of Nigeria thats when you will be satisfied. Bunch of idiots. How is he your problem, he clearly is not using your money to do whatever he is doing. |
Im Angry Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. Matthew 6:1-4 When hypocrites and enemies of Christianity ask this stupid question : why pastor are not giving to the poor, i share the above scripture with them. This stupid set of pple judge without knowing, they criticize without understanding. They are blinded by their hatred and agenda. Do you know how much Oyedepo gives to the needy, you dont, i dont, Scripturally it is between him and his God. It is non of your business. At least i know of thousand who are a beneficiary of his scholarship program, I know because i am a partaker. The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. The above scripture clearly explain most of the comment here. Tithing looks foolish to them, offering looks foolish to them, building house of God looks foolish to them , becaause they are carnal minded. |

Diamond is re-positioning itself as a national bank and expert are saying it is good for the bank Finance experts on Monday described the Diamond Bank Plc national banking licence as a strategic decision aimed at enhancing competitiveness and improved performance. The stakeholders in separate interviews with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos said that the decision would encourage its banking space spread. NAN reports that the bank, on Nov. 30, said that it had obtained a national banking licence from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). It explained that the move followed its decision to sell its international operations, which included the disposal of its West African Subsidiary in 2017 and Diamond Bank UK (DB UK Plc), the sale of which is currently in its final stages. The bank would, therefore, cease to operate as an International Bank. “The change to national bank status also enables the bank to maintain a lower minimum capital requirement of 10 per cent as against 15 per cent required for international banks,’’ the bank said in a statement. Prof. Sheriffdeen Tella, Professor of Economics, Olabisi Onabanjo University Ago-Iwoye, Ogun said that the national banking licence would assist in the bank’s survival. Tella said that it would encourage the spread of its banking space for deposit mobilisation and credit creation both of which were capable of assisting its survival. “Diamond bank has always been on the edge; though a quite innovative bank. “It is in the interest of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to keep the banking system stable and healthy to prevent systemic distress. “So, expanding the scope of operation of Diamond bank is in order. However, the bank needs to take advantage of the window by becoming more innovative and aggressive in its operations,’’ Tella said. He explained that the apex bank’s approval for the national banking licence would build confidence in the shareholders, customers of the bank and the general public. Mr Sola Oni, a Chartered Stockbroker and Chief Executive Officer, Sofunix Investment and Communications, told NAN that the bank’s acquisition of national banking licence was a strategic decision. Oni said that the bank had realised that its exposure to international banking was hitting hard on its top and bottom lines; hence the need to review its business strategy to cut costs. “This is a professional decision that has prospects of improved earnings. “The bank has publicly announced that its new decision to focus on the domestic environment does not imply that it will not be servicing foreign customers. “The bold move is expected to strengthen its domestic competition, boost earnings and create value for its shareholders. “Diamond’s approach is a lesson to other banks that might be carrying burden of international banking for egoistic reasons,’’ Oni said. Also speaking, Mr Moses Igbrude, Publicity Secretary, Independent Shareholders Association of Nigeria (ISAN), said that the news around the bank lately had not been palatable to its shareholders. Igbrude said that the bank had been passing through troubled water; the news of acquisition and refutal showed that all was not well. “That the bank has challenges is not the issue now but the ability of its management to navigate and manage the problems, learn the lessons and come out of it strong and reliable is what matters. “The news that Diamond Bank has gotten CBN approval for national licence is an indication that its management is on top of the situation, otherwise they would not have gotten such approval from the regulator, ‘’ he said. Igbrude said that the bank should concentrate in Nigeria where it had core competence instead of spreading their tentacles into international business.

The five affected persons were students of Osadenis Mixed Secondary School who were allegedly involved in cult activities and coming to school in mufti.

The argument that miracles happen to people in other religion does not disqualify miracle in any way... There is no where in the bible that says only christian will enjoy miracles, as a matter of fact some of the miracle done by Jesus in the new testament was for unbeliver e.g the mad man jesus healed , there is no way the mad man could a beliver because "he was mad". That was a miracle driven by mercy... Even the greatest miracle of all time , the miracle of the cross was done for unbelievers.... And that was driven by mercy and not religion or works, just by mercy and love.. So ofcus, unbeliver will still be experiencing miracles because we serve a merciful God... His mercy is beyond religion and works ... So whether muslims, hindus or even arm robbers ( eg the thief on the cross that jesus saved) are experiencing miracles, it is miracle driven by mercy because we served an infinitely merciful God... Atheist , it requires the same level of faith to believe there is no God, and to believe there is God.. just saying |

Antonio Conte’s journey on Chelsea has ended after the club sacked him as manager after his two-year reign. Maurizio Sarri has been appointed to immediately replace 48-year-old Conte who brought league success in 2017 and the FA Cup last season. However, Conte’s apparent dismissal drew a response from Chelsea’s Cesc Fabregas, who liked a tweet a Chelsea fan posted about Conte having been sacked although the Spanish 2010 World Cup winner subsequently claimed he had liked it by accident. Conte leaves with the best win percentage 65.1% of any of Chelsea’s managers in the Premier League era. Former banker Sarri, 59, will be Chelsea’s ninth full-time manager since Roman Abramovich bought the club in 2003. Conte — who had a year to run on his contract — is seen to have contributed to his own demise by falling out both with the players and the board as the sheen of the title victory quickly disappeared. His intense training methods angered senior players and he alienated the board with disparaging treatment of Spanish striker Diego Costa and constant carping over the club’s failure to replace top players with those of similar ability. However, while present players may have had issues with Conte, former Chelsea legend John Terry, who left after the league title winning campaign had nothing but praise for him. https://dailynaija.com/post/chelsea-sack-antonio-conte-as-manager-appoint-maurizio-sarri-to-replace-him-with-immediate-effect |
