*A huge well done to Remi on securing a role as a Project Manager*
Hi Adeshola,
I finally got a job. I just want to say thank you to you for the opportunity you gave me, your encouragement and for your platform because It taught me a lot. I also want to say thank you to all the people I came across and helped me on my journey, I really appreciate the various impacts/encouragements you had on my journey.
I initially expected my success story to come very fast but it came in God’s time eventually. Of the top of my head I did over 900 applications, 10 face to face interviews, numerous phone interviews and 6 Skype interviews. I was putting in the work but it wasn’t just yet my time.
Hard as it may seem to believe God just wanted to teach me patience. Not that I wasn’t good enough, I got great feedbacks but there was always someone with more experience than me. One feedback i got that i would never forget was you are too jovial and we don’t think you will fit into our culture. That feedback came as a phone call ( I would have slapped the guy if it was face to face lol).
Anyways my advice is don’t give up your job is out there, learn as much as you can because the competition is fierce, use LMS (it helped me a-lot) and if you are hungry like me use YOUTUBE, make reasonable friend because they would help your journey and lastly don’t forget to put it in God’s hands, tie a promise/commitment to your new job and thank Him in advance.
