Hey guys
Well nothing really transpired from last week's appeal for suggestions on how to improve this mkokotela recruitment agency that I'm running and I've asked the universe for guidance. I shall wait. In the meantime, I'm just going to carry on with it the way it has been going with little bit of change.
This week, I have one strong CV's to post. The others I've been receiving are mostly looking for PA positions, a lot of them who are qualified in other fields too but needing work experience. There are too many to choose from and I am happy to send them through to anybody that might be looking for Personal Assistants. Holler if you are interested. The other one that I was going to post is from somebody who has fantastic work experience, references and I was salivating at the prospect of sharing it until I realised she lives in New York and is not even South African. I was like, ok cool, it's good to have that much reach and I would certainly love to help another human being but this platform at the moment is for South Africans as a result of our 40% unemployment rate and one of the biggest youth bulges in the world. Anyway, here we go.

I was at a shoot last week and the editor of a local lifestyle magazine asked me if I know of any strong sales executives to sell advertising space for the magazine which has a readership of up to 1.5 million people. I said I would put the word out there, so if you have experience in Advertising Sales and you're looking for a new job with a really wonderful team of women, send me a mail and I'll forward it to the editor.
In other opportunity news, Women's Health Magazine in Cape Town is looking for editorial interns. This is a great opportunity to gain work experience if you are a freshly laid graduate of journalism and media studies. The internship is unpaid so you'll have to negotiate with mama and papa for a few extra months of living in the nest but these things usually open doors to real jobs sooner rather than later if you put in enough effort. The intern will be doing research, assisting with general editorial tasks, write some features which they will be paid for and just getting experience within an editorial team. If you'd like to apply for this, drop me a mail at missmillib@gmail.com. You can also send me an email if you have any other query.
Have a lekker weekend.
