It is quite worrisome these days to see the level of unemployment rising in our beloved country while there seem to be no end in sight. Granted,companies are limping and unemployment is on all time high for sixty years- world over. My concern however is that a lot of people are still getting employed everyday. So why are many complaining while others are changing jobs at will? It is very simple there are certain fundamental ingredients of job hunting that a lot of people do not possess, so you see problems such as:
poor scripting of CV
not knowing how to search for job appropriately
not knowing how to answer simple questions
poor projection of yourself as a brand
making fatal mistakes before the interview panel etc

You must know that as much as employers are looking to employ people they are also looking for how to eliminate a lot too. Sound funny doesnt it but that's true so you must learn to impress your potential employer in five seconds and make him want to call you again. So how do you do this?

Yeah, i quite agree with your points that one needs to be outstanding but the problem is if there is no job then there is no job. For example a company needs to employ just 2 people and they have 100 qualified canditdates. If they all perform well by displaying all those qualities you mentioned, will they employ all of them?

Abi, you are right.they cant employ more than 2 na!

A very wonderful observation from Dazz4me but the issue again is, are there no jobs in the land? a recent survey did reveal there are over 60,000 jobs in the banking and telecommunication sectors not filled because a lot of young people do not have industry skills to fill them.
A lot of outfits are springing up today to help re-orientate young people on how to get jobs of their choices. The Ibukun Awosikas of this world are getting involved.
Point two, is there any company that have the capacity to employ everyone at the same time? the obvious answer is an emphatic no!
Point no three, let's look at the game of football, in every competition, be it the world cup or UEFA Champions league a lot of teams get involved knowing that only one winner will emerge.Shouldn't the the weak ones resign to fate knowing that they cant win but fact is everyone wants to win but what separates everyone is the stuff they are made of.
Let me tell you everyone cannot be employed because not everyone is employable.
Your concern should be if they want to employ one person why not me? that's why you are on forum like this to get ideas. Thanks

My advice is to stop looking for job and start a business like fish farming.
