Dear Listers,kno
Am not sure whether this is allowed by the rules of the list. This young man shared this request in a Whatsapp group am part of. If any member here has an opportunity for him please reach out to him. I was impressed by his sense of focus.
"Hello Members.
Please take a moment here..
I understand this may seem out of place here but I hoped it may be a great avenue to get help considering the powerful, and resourceful membership of the group and the fact that at this very moment I am unemployed.
Any link up with a job opportunity is highly welcome.
I am a Computer Science graduate gentleman in my mid twenties with 2 years hands-on employment and entrepreneurship (stocking,inventory, sales, marketing and resource management) experience in ICT industry.
I interned in Ministry of Higher education for 5months.
I have worked in various capacities since completion of my studies (As Waiter, barista, Cyber attendant, company registration agent, Online Academic Writer, Web Designer, Computer networks officer and ICT officer).
I have a valid driving licence.
I communicate very fluently in English, Swahili and Gusii.
In all my duties I have maintained an honest and reputable relationship with all my employers and colleagues.
I am sociable, outgoing and very meticulous at any task I undertake.
I will greatly appreciate a link up to a job opportunity in the ICT industry, but I can settle for any other job where I can grow on the job and my employer happy.
I will also welcome an investor willing to invest in the IT industry and needs a steady hand to build up the business.
My name is Vincent Oganga Contact: 0707046634 /0788206752 Email : sourcecode.vin@gmail.com
Thank you."
End.

Edwin Kiama
