REMOVE THESE FROM YOUR CV/RESUME FOR A MORE PROFESSIONAL AND EFFECTIVE APPLICATION 1. Personal Information Not Relevant to the Job -Date of birth (unless required by law in some countries) -Marital status -Religion -Nationality (unless required for work authorization) -Photo (unless specifically required, such as in acting or modeling) 2. Irrelevant Work Experience -Jobs that don’t relate to the role you're applying for -Too many short-term roles that aren’t relevant -Internships or volunteer work that don’t contribute to your career goals 3. Generic Soft Skills Without Proof -Avoid just listing “Hardworking,” “Team Player,” or “Good Communicator” without examples -Instead, showcase skills with achievements e.g., “Led a team of five to complete a project ahead of schedule by 20%” 4. Objective Statements -Modern CVs use Professional Summaries instead of outdated Career Objectives -Instead of saying: "Looking for a challenging role to utilize my skills,"Write: “IT Support Specialist with expertise in troubleshooting and system administration, reducing downtime by 30% through process optimization.” 5. Long Paragraphs and Unclear Formatting -Use bullet points instead of long paragraphs -Keep formatting clean and ATS-friendly (avoid fancy fonts, graphics, or tables) 6. Unprofessional Email Address -Avoid emails like caromsupa@gmail.com/partyanimal@gmail.com -Use a professional format: firstname.lastname@gmail.com 7. References Upon Request -Employers assume you have references. Don't waste space writing this -Instead, prepare a separate reference list to provide if requested By removing these elements, your CV will be more professional, impactful, and optimized for success.

@bedrana04 Those are anal drops inserted in the anus if you gave acute constipation or piles. It stays there in the anus for 6hrs and after that you will pop easily. Used it once last year.

EMILY ACHOM@AchomEmily·
A National Referral Hospital without a CT scan machine. A National Referral Hospital without essential emergency equipment. This is what I witnessed firsthand. Yesterday, my uncle was involved in a tragic road accident along the Kayunga Highway in Mukono District. Despite the efforts of the first responders who did everything possible to save him, he later succumbed to the injuries he sustained. My two cousins, who were travelling with him, survived but suffered critical injuries. We rushed them to Mulago Hospital, Uganda's premier national referral facility, hoping they would receive urgent specialized care. What followed was deeply disappointing. For nearly 40 minutes at the casualty ward, no one attended to the patients. When assistance finally came, we were advised to transfer them to Ryan Hospital opposite the Law Development Centre because Mulago reportedly lacked a functioning CT scan service. To make matters worse, we had to arrange and pay for private transport ourselves, as there was no ambulance readily available to facilitate an emergency referral. It is difficult to understand how a National Referral Hospital can lack such critical diagnostic services and emergency response capacity. One would expect the country's highest-level public health facility to be the place where lives are saved, not where patients are referred elsewhere in their most vulnerable moments. Sometimes it feels as though our health system operates on a simple principle: survive the accident first, then survive the referral process. This experience has left me heartbroken, frustrated, and profoundly disappointed. My family's tragedy has exposed painful gaps in a system that millions of Ugandans depend upon. Ugandans deserve better.

A man spends 50 years teaching at MIT. He knows his time is running out. So he records one last lecture — everything he knows, distilled into a single hour. He died 5 months later. This is that lecture. The most important hour you'll watch this week. 👇 Bookmark it for later

Minister of Jobs@emmanuelbasy·
Today I interviewed a number of candidates for a full-stack developer role. Then it got to a particular candidate... Everything was fine at first, he gave a good introduction about himself and what he's done. Then I decided to ask a practical question: “Imagine you’re building an e-commerce app. A user adds items to the cart, but when they try to check out, the server crashes. Walk me through what you’d do to fix it.” After a short pause, he said:
Minister of Jobs@emmanuelbasy

I conducted interviews today from 8am UTC to 4pm UTC. WHAT A DAY!

STEP 1: Kill them with agreement "Am so glad you agreed James, that's the reason why I pitched the idea yesterday, this is definitely the only way to move forward" You just didn't call them a thief, you just demoted them to your assistant STEP 2 : Data Trap - As a question that can only the owner will know "Since we're going with my concept, do you want me to send the raw data I used or just a summary" Watch them stammer, they have the headline but they didn't do the homework. STEP 3: Hostile Takeover "Since I have the workflow ready, I'll go ahead and lead the kickoff call" - Stop letting career tourists build a career over you. Step over and take charge. STEP 4: Pre-Emptive Strike Next time, document everything before the meeting Send your ideas via email and cc relevant stakeholders This is how you protect your work before it enters the room. Because once it’s documented, it’s no longer “up for adoption.” STEP 5: Hold Your Ground Stay firm and steady when the pushback comes They might deflect. They might downplay. They might try to reclaim control. Don’t fold. You already said enough in the room. Now let your confidence carry the rest.

@Simon_Ingari Truth, You have applied for 3 jobs and both of them ask for your LinkedIn Profile. You can't have 3 profiles on LinkedIn, can you? Esp when all 3 recruiters will check it out almost anytime or in the same period. Having detailed profile of 5jobs you did yet you tailored 1 CV...

This is one of the most common interview questions, and how you answer can say a lot about you. So here are 6 professional ways to answer this question depending on your situation! 1️⃣ Salary & Growth Reasons "I’ve grown and contributed significantly in my role at [Company], but I’m now looking for a position that offers new challenges, opportunities to grow, and a compensation package that reflects my skills and contributions." 2️⃣ Organizational Changes "I’ve had a great experience at [Company], but due to recent restructuring and changes in direction, many opportunities for advancement are no longer available." 3️⃣ Career Change "After some reflection, I’ve decided to shift my career towards [new goal/industry]. I’m excited about this role because it aligns with my skills and long-term career plans." 4️⃣ Professional Growth & Challenge "I’ve reached a point where I’m ready for new challenges that allow me to further develop my skills. This role excites me because it offers opportunities to grow and contribute in new ways." 5️⃣ Change in Role/Scope "Although I was hired for [specific role], my job responsibilities have changed, and I’m no longer able to use my core skills. I’m now seeking a role that better matches my expertise." 6️⃣ Company Struggle "Unfortunately, [Company] has been going through some financial difficulties, and there’s uncertainty about the future. I’m looking for a stable environment where I can continue to grow and contribute." 💡 Tip: Always keep your answer positive and professional. Avoid speaking badly about your current employer. Focus on your goals and what excites you about the new opportunity! For CV revamp, email your current CV via cv@oyk.co.ke with subject 'Revamp '
