Yipee... Happy 2018- A challenge Post

-
I am not great at keeping blogs despite the fact that I really really love writing. I could tell you that for every successful fashion blogger in Kenya, I made their career by being a faithful reader, by recommending their blogs to friends and always discovering new blogs. Had I jumped on the blog wave back in 2010 I would be minting them coins by now but oh well time and tides waits for no man.

This year 2018. I want to challenge myself to write this blog at least once weekly. I believe my life is a whirlwind of sorts; in my vast 20 somethings, I am taking on a lot of experiences at a time which I believe would be a wealth of Knowledge for some people like me, I would like to document all these experiences on this blog.

Another aspect that will be highlighted on this blog is my sales experience. I do not purport to be great at sales but this blog will be an outlet to help me sieve through it and of course if you have some of you experienced leaders teach me the tricks of the trade  especially in Kenya.

I do not have many resolutions this year besides being excellent in selling and running a successful blog.

Please support my blog by sharing articles, reading and recommending to friends.


Yipee Allons- y

Interview Question: Tell Me about Yourself?

Bonjour people, Most interviewers choose this as the first question, it's meant to break the ice and make you comfortable. However, this is the case where first impressions matter. This is your chance to set the tone of the interview. Have you ever walked into a room with stern faced panelists and you feared for your life or bowels? Buterflies and gas were having a match in your tummy. in a hot suit or uncomfortable heels and you brea a sweat. This gets worse when you find a parade of other interviewees looking to snatch a chance. Oh yes, I have experienced this before. The truth is; many people take different paths to a career and companies seek people that will fit into their company culture, someone they can relate to, So no matter, the qualifications of other so deserving candidates, you have your own story and this is what appeals to the panelist. So let's get into the gist of the matter. in answering this question. You want to make the an

What you need to know about your References

-
Now that you are out of college  and job hunting, local cyber cafes are reaping profits in the form of the number of CVs printed and hours spent scouring job sites while you lose sleep because you can not think of the good skills you have to highlight or even how to write a good curriculum vitae. Notwithstanding, one thing that is often left behind at the foot end of the CV is the reference section. When an interviewer asks you for a list of references, are you confident about the names you hand over? Do you wonder what kind of questions they might be asked, or whether you’ve picked the right people? I have heard stories of people who just listed the wrong people and who then  gave potential employers bad references. For HRs and hiring people this is a crucial decision maker and all candidates do well to list people who will give an enthusiastic review for you. Here are some guidelines to writing a good reference section. What are some questions a recruiter is likely to ask your r

Why I quit my Job- You can't teach an Old dog New ways

-
This is my third time being employed and I think this is my best job yet. There is something to be said about experience being the best teacher and let me tell you, through the joblessness of 2016-2017. My learned resolve is a great motivator. However, I was not so resolute before  but quitting my job that first time was a good idea. I regret leaving the company, it had great perks but my boss was the worst boss ever. granted my first boss could have been an angel that walked this earth. Someday, I am gonna write a story about Suresh. He was a "mhindi", was very respectful, such a leader and a revolutionary. i admired him greatly; the number of times he called me into his office to teach me stuff- i joked being adopted by him. I made it clear I was no corporate buff; he allowed me to speak my mind without decorum and the one time my "supervisor " reported me for giving him an ultimatum on email- he only gave me a blank stare. The last time he left, i though
