Expert Application Advice
In your application for TVET Jobs, don't just list your senior years—show how you solved a yield or supply-chain challenge. Where the posting mentions les compétences demandées dans l'annonce, mirror that exact phrase in your cover letter, then give one hard number proving you've delivered it before. That link wins interviews.
Positioning — Your cover letter must answer one question: why YOU for THIS specific role right NOW? Avoid generic templates — one sentence on what you specifically bring beats three generic paragraphs.
Field experience — Detail species cultivated/raised, areas managed, yields achieved and techniques mastered. For NGO/rural development roles, cite your FAO/IFAD projects if applicable.

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
