well it does not look official. If i may ask, why didnt you keep the job? That is another problem our peeps should look into. It is not just about getting job, what about holding onto the one you have?

Thanks for the compliment. I remember back then, my salary was just 90k. By the time task and pension is removed, it was 79 or 80k. And she stuck with me believing things will be good. I remember vividly how reluctant I was to go for the interview because of the distance but she encouraged me to go. Now I earn close to half a million monthly and we are both happy.

She is God's gift to me.
This so lovely..seriously you just rekindled hope in me that we still have such ladies in Nigeria because honestly I have given up on such

NO offense, I only raised a question... research has shown that your email has a lot to do with if employer will even take a look at your CV. That u had a job with that email does not mean it will work for others. well all the best..

Bros! Sending applications online is good but try talking to people one-on-one. Go on linkedin and package yourself as if you are sending a business proposal.

Networking is the fastest way of getting a job nowadays. I once "advertised" a girl on my BBM PM, highlighting her credentials (First Class too awaiting NYSC) and skills, as if she was a tangible commodity. In no time, one of my customers contacted me and asked for her details. I hooked them up but she declined the job because the pay couldn't cover her transportation costs and some other recurrent costs.

The point is that you need to package yourself like you're trying to sell a product and get a lot of people to know about you and what you can do!

It was an unsolicited application.

I stumbled on the profiles of some HR staff of the company on Linkedin, "connected" with them, sent my resume via email and the rest is history...

It was not a smooth journey though.
pls how did you mail your resume via LinkedIn? and beside did you have a prior convo with them before sending your cv to them?
