“I have acquired a skill, when and how do I get jobs?" Read to the end. Navigating through the job market is not a piece of cake. Sometimes, you keep searching for jobs (paid roles) and end up regretting why you learned a skill. Before you wait to land paying roles, have you tried volunteering or interning for a brand? Volunteering is the act of giving one's time, effort, and skills to benefit others, or a community without expecting payment or compensation. An internship is a short-term work experience program that provides students, or individuals with an opportunity to gain practical skills and experience in a specific industry or profession. So, before you get exhausted in the job market, apply for volunteer or internship roles. This will enable you to get hands-on experience and master your skill differently. Currently, The Geek designer is calling on volunteers to take up the following roles: 📌 Graphics designers. 📌 Digital marketers. 📌 Content writers. 📌 Social media managers. 📌 Virtual assistants. Do you have any of these skills and ready to get hands-on experience, take up these volunteer roles. Does it interest you? Send me a dm with the word “Volunteer”. PS: Our Google workspace class will commence on 1st May. Why haven't you registered? #techskills #volunteering #internship #thegeekdesigner

I recently put out an internship hiring post and the number of DM’s and volume of applications have been insane! Got me worried about the number of students out there looking for opportunities. Believe me when I say, I have been there too! From sending out 100’s of DM’s, mails, drafting resume & cover letters, interviews…I have done them all 🙃 But its just not easy due to the limited supply of these opportunities. Being in the creator economy for the last year, I have realized that there is a new market with tons of opportunities for college students. Creators are also businesses. After a point they also need smart people to run the entire backend operations. Here is what I would do if I was back in college :- (1) If I was into editing, I would offer to edit a few videos for the creator (2) If I was into marketing, I would offer to launch a new digital product (Course, book, resources etc) (3) If I was into copywriting, I would offer to write scripts for them for brand collaborations or viral content (4) If I was into photography/ videography, I would offer to shoot content (5) If I was into sales, I would offer to pitch brands for collaborations (Making brochures, doing sales pitches etc) (6) If I was into data analytics, I would offer to analyze the entire YT studio data and provide insights on what’s working well I repeat, creators are also businesses! Every creator’s email ID is publicly available. All you have to do is make a list and send out personalized mails with a solid pitch & proof of work. Don’t restrict yourself to just companies. Reach out to your favourite creators! — Follow Adithyaa Sriram (Me) for more such content on the creator economy. I will be posting a lot more insights & opportunities in this space over the next few weeks. #creatoreconomy #hiring #internship #college

Oh, the joys of the job market! 🎢 It’s like a game of musical chairs, but instead of music, we have endless job descriptions that require a PhD in wizardry! I mean, who knew that being a “Social Media Manager” also meant you had to be a part-time therapist, a graphic design guru, and a digital marketing ninja—all for the price of a cup of coffee? ☕️ After two years of hustling in the digital marketing realm, I thought I’d finally earned my stripes. But then I got this offer for an unpaid internship that read like a laundry list of everything from competitor analysis to website design. I was half-expecting them to ask me to walk their dog too! 🐶 It’s about time we start calling out these “entry-level” roles that expect us to wear ten different hats while getting paid in “exposure” and “experience.” 🤦♂️ Let’s raise the bar and demand respect for our skills, folks! After all, we’re not just here to fill a seat—we’re here to make waves in the digital ocean! 🌊✨ #jobs #jobsearch #digitalmarketing

WHAT HAPPENED?!?! It's been a whole two weeks since I posted here on LinkedIn and to be honest, that wasn't the plan. I had everything mapped out; from the day I'd batch create content, to editing, to creating images, to implementing SEO words to drive traffic, everything was planned. But what happened? I still don't know! All I know is, I was burned out, and still am, but I've refused to let that stop me from achieving my goals. During an eye-opening phone call with my sister Naomi Utere, we made a sort of life-changing pact that NEEDS to happen and that to be honest is my drive and motivation every day. So, for the past two weeks, what have I been up to: - I'm still taking my Virtual Assistant course with alx_africa though I'm behind schedule, I still plan on catching up. - Started my email management course with Acadium, hoping to get accepted for their apprenticeship program after - Got a paid graphics design gig - Got a client for a paid fashion designing job (yes, I'm also in fashion school 🤗 ) - A client reached out to be here on LinkedIn about a writing gig - I got a rejection letter for a content writing job - Applied for a job that turned out to be a scam. This one hurt the most but, guess who will personally reach out to the company to apply? Yes, me 😂 - I got an acceptance letter for another internship - For the first time, I submitted a personal essay for a writing contest. It's safe to say these past two weeks have been a whole lot! 😂 Regardless, thank you for sticking me with throughout this journey, this is just the beginning! Nice to meet you, I am Eniola Busari, your virtual assistant, editor, writer & voice-over artist. Boosting productivity & crafting engaging content. Let's collaborate!

I lied on my first internship In 2020, I got my first social media internship to save up for my first phone. Before COVID, having a smartphone was a luxury for us, and my family couldn't afford it. During those two months, I learned graphic design, video editing, content strategy, and writing, even though I exaggerated on my resume. After six months, they offered me a full-time job, but I wanted to freelance. The real question is: how did I learn all those skills in just two months? It's the "do first, learn later" method. Instead of long tutorials, I tackled tasks step by step, figuring things out as I went. It's all about making things simpler and focusing on real practice.
