Introduction3:17
Hello my friend!
Welcome to my course. I’m exceedingly pleased that you have decided to take on this exciting and rewarding journey of job search with me. I completely understand how frustrating it could be to look for a job, irrespective of the reason for the search which could include job loss, change of career or looking for the first time following completion of university or college. I have been there several times and that’s why I’m passionate about taking this journey with you.
Over the years, the face of job application has changed tremendously as a result of the power emerging technologies, especially the information and communication technology. We have witnessed our street recruitment agencies disappearing and have seen more and more roles filled online. In fact, recent report has it that about 80% of job seekers used online resources and over 85% of all roles are filled through networking. This is indeed staggering! As at July 2020, about 4.5 billion people were active in internet worldwide. COVID 19 has hastened the future and a greater percentage of transactions are now completed online.
I have designed this course in line with these realities as this is also the future of job applications. I request one thing from you: complete the course and do the exercises! I crave for your feedback through the rating tools, but please feel to reach out to me on the areas that need improvement if you need to do that before rating the course.
I wish you every success!
