Exciting Continent!

 
 

Foreword by John Battersby, UK Country Manager, Brand South Africa

Are you planning to work in Africa? Whether you want to accelerate your career, return home or experience working in a different continent, you need to get it right.

A unique, step-by-step guide to working in the fastest growing continent in the world that offers invaluable advice on the African job market, the industries and professions in demand, how to put in place a winning strategy, write a compelling CV, make the right connections, and find a job in Africa that builds on your career and talents in today's competitive job market.

This highly readable book will help you draw up your personal road map for this exciting step in your career journey; clarify your motivation, assess your skills and develop a compelling case for recruiters and corporations to hire you.

Text Box:  EVERYDAY PEOPLE, EXTRAORDINARY
INSPIRATION!

Everyday people, inspirational lessons!

In this inspiring book of interviews, 16 Black achievers share lessons that will motivate anyone to take action to improve their career and their life!

Everyday heroes are people from our communities who have achieved success in their own areas of activity and who inspire us to do better.

The stories of these sixteen achievers will provide education, offer inspiration and promote aspiration in an
easy to read format for young readers everywhere.

What does it take to be a successful architect, lawyer, actuary, composer or inventor? What was the best advice ever given to one of the UK’s leading black medical consultants? These role models offer invaluable learning, not only about what it takes to succeed in their chosen careers, but also about their own journeys, their influences, and the life lessons they have learned along the way.

Complete with projects and exercises to help young people think about their own career aspirations, Everyday Heroes is an invaluable tool for schools, parents, youth groups and anyone involved in the career development of young people from ethnic minorities.

Contains a bonus section with useful projects and exercises for use by teachers, parents and mentors!

“A fascinating and informative collection of interviews which will inspire younger and older readers alike.” Elsie Owusu OBE
