Call and ask to confirm your interview time

Skip the part where you apply to a thousand jobs without getting a reply. Call the companies directly and tell them you want to confirm your interview time. Chances are, they’ll be too lazy to check if they actually sent you anything.

Find their email address and send them an interview invite

If you’ve already applied, be proactive and send them an interview invitation, so they know you mean business. Companies always say they want proactive people. Show yourself.

Offer them fuel

If they have an office, then they need to keep the lights on. Offer them free fuel as a perk for hiring you. You’ll leave them no choice but to hire you with joy.

Offer to pay them a salary instead

What better way to prove to them that you’re not doing it for the money than to offer them money?

Become a POS attendant

You’re going straight from being unemployed to being self-employed. Even better, you’re handling plenty cash every day. What more do you want?

Become a Wizkid stan

Being a part of Wizid FC is a full-time job, and the best part about it is that you don’t have to apply. Just start working. You might get stressed out every once in a while sha but the job is the job. Another option is to just become Davido’s online defender for the week. But you’ll be doing a lot of overtime sha.

Shoot your shot at your future employer

No, we’re not asking you to send them a DM on LinkedIn. Instead, find their IG handle and slide into their DMs with as much rizz as you can. Ask them on a date, then go with your CV. They’ll be impressed by your focus.
