How To Write A Good Cover Letter

Image
Want to include a Cover Letter on that job application? Here's a step-by-step guide of how to complete a cover letter. Also, what it should and shouldn't entail. A cover letter should be a single page letter that you include with your job application. Thing is, you can always include one, unless the job advertisement clearly says you shouldn't. Always remember to keep it short because it should be a summary and not your autobiography. 1. Follow The Rules of Formal Business Letters: Your cover letter should include: - Your name - Your phone number - Your email address - The date of the letter - The name of the hiring manager and their title - The name of the company you are applying to as well 2.

Yahoo Yahoo( Nigerian Prince Scam) in Nigeria, A result of our system or Product of Greed

Image
To start, this post seeks to analyse the opposing ideologies of why some Nigerian youths go into becoming ‘yahoo-yahoo’ fraudsters. Also, my point of view in this whole discussion. Please, you are welcome to participate in the comment section. For those who do not know, ‘Yahoo-Yahoo (aka Nigerian Prince)' is a name given to someone involved in an advance fee scheme where he lures a victim to pay money in anticipation of receiving something of greater value. Eventually, the victim receives little or nothing in return. Opposing the idea that Yahoo-Yahoo is a result of our system: Some argue that people who go into these acts do so due to high unemployment rate. Hence, they need a means to survive as the ‘government’ has failed them. They even justify it and use it as means of subtle protest. Forgive my Yoruba but all that is bullshit. Igbe Malu to the highest. Do you know on average a newbie ‘yahoo-yahoo’ person spends an average of 12 hours a day on his laptop s

You've been sending your resumes to recruiters but no response? Here are top 7 reasons of 2018 why recruiters pushed a resume aside & what you can do to avoid it. Also, 5 best applications to edit your resume online if you can't afford a professional resume editor. Thread. 1.  Resume has typos and errors. A resume filled with typo and errors indicates who you are as a person. Most recruiters indicate this is a no no. Remember, first impressions matter and little erros like that can cost you that remarkable first impression. How to avoid: When in doubt, use a free website that checks grammar and spellings to review your final resume. Examples are:  grammarly.com grammarcheck.net 2.  Your resume is boring. If a recruiter doesn't use an ATS to review resumes but does it manually, least they want is to be bored by a resume. Avoid this by simply highlighting your strengths and accomplishments.
