TELL ME MORE






Hello guys! I hope it's not too late to wish you a beautiful 2021. Welcome back from the long break😉 I must confess that I missed you all. Yeah, it feels so good to be back. Yipee! Sending a virtual hug to you all💗💗💗



Let's dive into our book review. I believe the previous reviews have been impactful, to say the least. 



CHAPTER 5: TELL ME MORE.



After creating a good social media profile, our job is to make it easy for people to communicate with us. Yemisi discussed some of the things that can help us and they include:



1. Make your 'DM' accessible on Twitter and Instagram, this is so that if someone isn't following you, they can still send a direct message to you.



2. Post links to your platform/blog/CV in your bio. This makes it easy for interested people to contact you when a great opportunity shows up.



3. Include your email address in your bio.



4. As part of your bio, post the links to your other social media accounts such as LinkedIn, where you engage an audience and share consistent messages.



Yemisi also explains over 20 online platforms where we can share an online CV/create portfolio. (Please ensure you read this book to know more). Another benefit of it is that we can include more experience and longer descriptions of our work which may not fit on a traditional paper CV.



I hope you've learnt something new today.

SLEEPING ON DUTY

Image
Yesterday, I actually went shopping at the Lagos Island market popularly called "Balogun market." However, a particular sight which I saw got me thinking till I got home. You must be wondering what it is already. Well, wonder no more! Out of the numerous shops I visited, I noted that about 3 of them had attendants who happened to be sleeping when I got there. I was really amazed at how somebody will manage to doze off or sleep in a place like Balogun market (I'm sure my Lasgidi friends will understand this better). Hence, I decided to treat the issue of sleep on my blog today. Trust me, I wouldn't want you to be in that same or similar position.  So, here are five (5) signs that you've not been sleeping well. 1. You easily Jonalize. The word "Jonalize" was coined from the story of a man named Jonah in the Holy book who was said to have been sleeping while the ship he was in was almost capsiding and everybody was running helter skelter. Back to the matter...

SOCIAL MEDIA IS YOUR NEW CV

Image
  Believe me, regardless of the level you are, this book would definitely change your orientation positively. It is a 94 pages book and the writer did well to include beautifully designed graphics that won't make readers get bored while reading.  Shall we begin? CHAPTER 1- SOCIAL MEDIA IS YOUR NEW CV.  This chapter begins with the writer correcting the assumed notion that she gets amazing opportunities because she studied abroad. She backs this up by narrating how other persons who had never left the shores of Nigeria also gets amazing opportunities as she does. Yemisi says, "irrespective of your background, you can use social media as your CV!" In the past, potential employers can only know your past experiences and the skills you can offer by going through your C.V, but now, the tide has changed. By merely looking at your social media profile, a potential employer can get a good knowledge of what you represent. The goodnews is that CVs are not merely useful for getting ...

SO YOU THINK NOBODY KNOWS?

I know you have put in much effort to succeed yet you got little or no result. I know you have reached out to many for help yet none of them were willing to help you. I know how much you try to hide your frustration behind smiles just to make others feel better. I know you have attended many interviews and yet none offered you the job.  I also know you have made tremendous efforts to make your dreams come true yet, there seem to be no difference.  I am here to let you know that you are not alone. If you don't give up, you'd eventually get that job you want. You'd get that promotion you deserve. You'd get that financial support you need. You'd get the connections you long for and ultimately, you'd get answers to all your heart desires. You're only few steps away from your desired success. And guess what? I am praying for you and I know you'll surely get there. I'm certain that you'll indeed smile soonest. In this New August, I am rooting for you. ...
