I have searched for internships, Jobs, sent in numerous mails, still no luck!! Have you checked your CV? Here is a tip from the Lawrit Journal boot camp 4.0, Contents of a Good CV for such purpose: 1. Contact information. *Your Name. * Your residence (e.g Lagos, NG) * Phone number (adding your country code) * Email address (give an officially looking email and not something like hotboy4you@gmaill.🤭 2. Education. As an undergraduate. *The year you started to present. For example 2022-present. Avoid putting dates that you plan completing your degree. 3. Include previous work experience(s) if any. 4. Include volunteering experience (s), you see why it is important to volunteer yourself in meaningful and impact driven activities. However, A work CV is totally different from an Academic CV. 5. State potential prospects which you have that is needed in the firm/company, and this can only be known after a deep research has been made. 6. Potential skills you possess that is needed in such firm. A quick one, it is not totally advisable to add your picture in your CV, unless it is clearly stated in the requirements provided📌 And that's all for now, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section. Thank you for this session Lawrit Journal of Law X Mary Agaba

Yes, I once imagined myself living large in Ibadan, with a great job (even though there was no concrete offer). But life rarely follows a straight line, does it? Thank you to those who followed along in the last post. And to those just joining in, Welcome aboard! You might want to check my previous post for some context. Now, let’s rewind a bit. Did I mention I had worked for a Digital communication and Brand Consulting firm in Lagos right after leaving my Human Resource job. Yes, I had applied for the position of a development communication intern (zero experience), I went through the interview process and I was offered the job. This in its case was a Hybrid role which means finally, I get to dress up and say ‘I’m going to the office’. Don’t be confused, I had always been a remote worker. So it feels good to finally be able to leave the house and go to work. But as they say, all good things must come to an end. I left the job within 2 months (I will be sharing my experience soon). Let’s come back to me daydreaming about my life in Ibadan when I got another offer as an Executive Assistant to the CEO of a prominent company in Lagos. My well thought-out plans were not about to be disposed, but out of curiosity, I decided to accept the interview invite. I sailed through the initial stages and landed a face-to-face session with the CEO I will be working with. I wouldn’t say I had no skills, my previous roles has helped me in building some administrative skills and I had been opportune to manage people and also mastering the art of communication. The result? I got the job!! It was a full-time, on-site position, a whole new adventure. Fast forward almost 2 years into the job, I was moved to the position of the Assistant Head of Customer Relations/Communications Manager of the same company. This unexpected path has been a whirlwind of learning and growth. Stay connected as I continue to share the highs and lows of my professional journey. I would love to hear some of your experience, kindly share them in the comment section. #wednesdaypost #Linkedin #careerdevelopment #growth #professionaljourney

A while back, when I came back to Lagos, I knew exactly what I needed to do. Despite working in IT support in my previous role, I recognized that securing a teaching job or working in a school would be easier for me at the time. So, I packaged my resume with some relevant IT skills, and got a good offer in no time. Define your interest: Take some time to reflect on your interests and skills.  - What kind of work environment excites you?  - What problems are you passionate about solving? - Do you enjoy working with your hands, creating visual content, or analyzing data?
