How to actually get hired from Nigeria

Most remote applications go into a pile nobody reads. Before you apply, you can check two things a listing rarely tells you: whether you can really do this job from Nigeria, and who at the company to reach directly.

Job report ยท โ‚ฆ1,500

Is the role still open, and open from Nigeria? How you would be engaged and paid, the working hours in Lagos time, and whether the company looks legitimate. Anything we cannot verify is marked "not found", never guessed.

Direct outreach pack ยท โ‚ฆ6,000

Everything in the report, plus who to contact at the company and a specific message written from your CV for that job, so you reach a hiring contact instead of applying into a pile. If we cannot find a contact, we say so.

How to get it: open any job, tap Get the report, then choose the report or the pack. The Nigeria label and hours on each card stay free.
