WHAT TO LOOK OUT FOR WHEN SEEKING JOB

Majority of people seeking job in our society have the mindset of few jobs availability with too many graduates without paying cordial attention to what to lookout for in securing job of their dream. Nigeria is a country with many job opportunities if you know what to do and how to do it. what can i do ? you ask.

1. Honest assessment of oneself. You've not been sincere to yourself in seeking job all this while. For example you graduated from the university/polytechnic and your discipline is Geology and then you want to work in the Bank. The banks will first considered graduates with the right disciplines before considering you even if you pass their screening tests and it might not favour you. I advice that you seek job in the area of your study. You can achieved this by being on the look out for pieces of information concerning job vacancies on the internet. Network with other job seekers. Form clubs and name it whatever name you desire where you can discuss ideas and your various job attempts. Have a distinct mindset that you have a lot to offer the company you dream for and do your best at the job if you are eventually being hired.


2. Your Qualifications.The way Nigeria system is designed, you have to go to school and acquired some qualifications to boost your curriculum vitae and resume. Your qualifications should be supported with some skills that will be needed in the job market.I read about a man from success digest, who read Business Administration and could not hold down a job.He was told to try out a job in a company as a clerk but won't be paid as a graduate. And that while on the job he should empower himself with some computer programmes and in just three months, the person in charge of Business Administration in the company was seen to be performing below expectation. This man came as a good replacement.


3. Work for free. This may be very difficult to practice by many job seekers in Nigeria. Personally i had applied it and it had work for me. Go try it and see what happens. I remembered the story i read from Robert Kiyosaki's book ''rich dad poor dad '' the two boys had to work for free to learn how to make money. If you can apply this principle when seeking job, the organisation will favour you at the end. Then you can developed your potentials from that offer.
