I’m wondering whether to go back to campus today, as there seems to be nothing new there. I finally pick a notebook, and head towards the Eastern Gate. Just want to go through the day’s newspapers in case there is a new job advert.
I purpose not to apply for the few I find there, as I, like hundreds of my colleagues, am tired of making piles of applications without any prospective employer giving me even a chance to interview.
Mr. Bernard Sabiti
I have come to believe one of the many theories from guys here, that companies in Ugandan advertise vacancies when the job was long given to one of the Bosses’ relative, and that advertising is just a public relations stint. And that in Uganda its technical know-who, and not ‘technical know-how’ that works.
*** End of Mr. Bernard Sabiti’s Real Life Experiences Diary Entry ***
With permission from Mr. Bernard Sabiti, we are serializing and publishing selected episodes from his column “A Job Seeker’s Diary” that was first published in a national newspaper. Whereas, Mr. Sabiti is now a very successful consultant, we decided to share and to publish episodes from his column on our website because they are directly relevant to our overall goal of “building healthy communities” through “engaging in educational and scientific activities to stimulate the development, dissemination and widespread application of technologies suitable and adaptable to the social, cultural and economic conditions of developing countries. Mr. Sabiti’s life story, as a whole, is the more relevant to us, since there seems to be nothing he has not done, innovating to better his lot and to contribute to the bettering of life for his wider communities.
