    First off, no normal person dreams of labour. Yes, we said it. However, man鈥檚 gotta eat.  

    Since we get multiple stories about terrible job experiences as well as the best work experiences, we decided to share the sure ways to land your dream job. You鈥檙e welcome.

    1. Take the company鈥檚 name to the mountain

    Why bother sending out CVs when you can simply pick out the company you want and fire prayers on them? Any mountain will do.

    Tech Unicorn, locate me by fire.

    2. Offer sacrifices

    If prayer is not your thing, just look for a Nollywood-esque calabash and get creative with the content. For the best results, include your dream company鈥檚 name on a piece of paper, pour red oil on it and drop it at a T-junction. Just don鈥檛 let anyone catch you.

    Drop it at night, for obvious reasons.

    3. Shout, 鈥淒o you know who I am?鈥 at the interview

    If you do land an interview and you notice it isn鈥檛 going well, just stand up and start beating your chest as if your bank deducted your last 1k. Got it? Then start shouting, 鈥淒o you know who I am?鈥 Since most Nigerians are wired to fall at the feet of rich and violent people, this hack will work eight out of ten times.

    4. Spam their social media accounts

    Locate the company鈥檚 social media accounts and fill the comment sections with your name and email address. They will admire your tenacity and make you CEO.

    5. Rent a billboard

    You want to catch the attention of as many people as possible and show that you can think out of the box. Isn鈥檛 that what all job vacancies require?

    6. Kidnap their HR and demand your dream role as a ransom

    If they鈥檙e proving stubborn, find their HR personnel and kidnap them. Trust us. It鈥檒l be easier for them to offer you a job than pay a monetary ransom.

    7. Announce your dream job on LinkedIn

    Fake it till you make it 鈥 or whatever Shakespeare said. It doesn鈥檛 matter that you haven鈥檛 even interviewed with them. Just announce that you鈥檝e joined their team on LinkedIn, and they will look for you.

    8. Just resume

    If all else fails, just carry your bags and sit outside their gate. In the event that they don鈥檛 arrest you, they鈥檒l notice your determination and offer you a job on the spot.
