TalentMine Launches CV and Cover Letter Upgrading Service

At TalentMine we understand that the first thing your future employer knows about you comes from your CV and your Cover Letter. The main decider of whether or not you get an interview is exclusively determined by the quality and content of these items. However, many applicants don’t put together an attention grabbing CV or Cover Letter that meets the employer’s requirements.

Bank of America Merrill Lynch Live in Nigeria

Bank of America Merrill Lynch (BAML), one of the world’s largest investment banks with offices in every major international financial centre will be returning to Lagos this September. The company will be hosting an Open Day for UNDERGRADUATES ONLY to provide full information about the opportunities that exists in their firm for internships and full time jobs. 

How To Write An Attention Grabbing CV

It's that time of year again when the leading international banks are receiving applications form undergraduates all over Nigeria. For most applicants the first hurdle to cross is the CV. Since banking employers don’t have the chance to meet everybody, they ask you to send a representation of you that they can have a quick look at and use to decide whether to meet you in person or not. That representation is your CV or Resume. Sadly, this is where a majority of people get it wrong.
