An Applicant's Still-birth

2010-02-15T04:29:00.000-08:00

In the years I have spent as an HR Consultant, nothing piques me more than a sloppy or shoddy response to a Job ad.

As an Applicant, you don't necessarily need to respond to every job-ad that catches your fancy. And when you choose to, please ensure that you conduct yourself in the most professional and responsible manner possible.

It makes me shudder when I see applicants who forward me the same message that they had forwarded to 8 previous recruiters without necessarily bothering to edit, or even remove the addresses to which they had previously sent the same CV.

One particularly bad case is one in which the Applicant forwarded me a message that must have been sent to her by her BF who probably helped her draft her CV. The message read:
I have worked on the CV... When are you going to come and help me cook the soup you promised? I expected you last week but you didn't show up... blah blah blah.

I was stunned!

Another lady wrote:
Hang on tight to this...

That was so annoying! Especially when I discovered that there was nothing special about her CV.

But don't judge these characters without asking yourself if you are not guilty of the same thing.

For instance: What do you write in the body of your mail when you forward your CV?

Think about it... It sometimes determines whether you get called or not.

Now, that's what I call The Applicant's Still-birth.

I'll have some new vacancies up here later today. Please do check back.

Good luck!

The Agony of a Job-seeker

2010-01-15T08:27:00.000-08:00

"It's just a few minutes before midday and I had been sitting for more than 3 hours! Actually, there are about 25 of us and we are all waiting for the 1 man who will determine our fates for 1 vacant position..."

Does this sound like you?

Well, it doesn't have to be...

To be honest, getting a job (particularly in the wake of the recent recession) is no joke. However, you can drastically reduce how much longer you spend in search of a job if you will just pay attention to some seemingly simple ideas which I will be sharing with you on this page.

My name is Tolu. I'm an HR Consultant and I work for a Multi-national HR Consulting firm based in Lagos. Simply put, my job (among other things) is: "...providing Employers with candidates who have the right skills and attitudes that match their workforce needs."

I am a Nigerian and I've lived a greater part of my life so far in Lagos. I understand the peculiar challenges of getting a job in a country like Naija.

I'm not "Old-Skool"! I'm just like you... the NaijaHotJob and Nairaland generation.

So, trust me when I confidently say that the suggestions and tips that I'd offer on this page will certainly work for you.

I have sat on either side of the interview table and I understand perfectly the mentality that rules on either side of the divide.

What will my service cost you?

Absolutely nothing! I mean it...

Am I a scammer? Nope. I'll never ask you for a dime.

Okay, enough talk... If you are truly serious about getting out of the unemployed pool, then come back on Monday, (Jan 18, 2010) for the first dose in the series...

Am I real or a joker? It only costs one click on Monday to find out.

In the mean time, post your comments or enquiries here on this page. I'll personally attend to them all.

Cheers.
