Beyond Borders: How Vee Landed a Finance Analyst Role in Canada
Ever had those moments when your dreams feel beyond borders, and when you share them, people give you that “look?”
These ambitions come with high hopes, expectations, and many challenges, especially when you’re an immigrant in a new country, brimming with potential and ready to conquer the job market.
That’s the life of the average job-seeking immigrant in a foreign land. It’s a rollercoaster ride, isn’t it?
We’re pretty sure you can relate, just like Vee did. From Nigeria to the UK and then Canada, Vee’s relentless pursuit of a dream beyond borders became a remarkable success story, all thanks to RKY Careers.
So, how did she pull it off? Well, keep reading this post as we unveil her inspiring journey.
Beginning of Her Story: The Struggles that Led to RKY Careers
Originally from Nigeria, Vee embarked on a journey to the UK on a Student Visa to pursue a Master’s degree. Even before her relocation, she had been a dedicated follower of our Instagram page, absorbing all the insights shared.
Initially, she planned to complete her studies before engaging with our community. However, Vee’s interest peaked as she couldn’t ignore the inspiring success stories of those who had once stood in her shoes.
A few months later, Vee found herself in Canada, having transitioned from the UK with her freshly acquired finance degree and local experience. But the Canadian job market proved to be a different altogether. She struggled to make her CV stand out and felt lost in the sea of applications and job searches.
It was a relentless and consuming process, with little to show for her efforts – just rejections. Her hope began to waver, and it seemed like a dead-end road.
Then, at her lowest point, she reached out to us and sought advice from us. placing her faith in RKY Career’s limitless potential without borders.
How Her Story Changed: Turning Dreams into Reality Beyond Borders
When Vee turned to us for guidance, we advised her to enhance both her CV and LinkedIn profile to highlight the essential skills and expertise required for a financial analyst position. We worked closely with Vee to refine the skills and qualities that were previously missing from her CV, which had been a contributing factor to the numerous rejections she had faced.
Equipped with her freshly updated CV and LinkedIn profile, Vee plunged into the job market, diligently submitting applications to numerous companies with her desired role in mind, all in the hopeful anticipation of securing at least one interview opportunity.
Securing Her First Offer Letter as a Financial Analyst
Vee started experiencing immediate and remarkable outcomes from her job applications. It was particularly striking because she had transitioned from a phase of consistent rejections to a phase where she received interview invitations every day of the week.
The series of interviews provided a platform for Vee to display her skills and expertise to potential employers. With each interview, her confidence grew, and she became increasingly certain that she possessed the qualities and qualifications sought after by companies. After several rounds of interviews, Vee’s dream materialised, and she successfully secured her inaugural job in Canada as a financial analyst.
In her own words, she remarked, “RKY worked wonders, as the results spoke for themselves.”
She credits her achievements to the invaluable assistance provided by RKY Careers in enhancing her CV and LinkedIn profile.
