Expert Application Advice

Show how you delivered les compétences demandées dans l'annonce in a real project. At MEFMI, hiring managers look for proof, not promises—give a 2-line result with numbers or impact.

Development bank — These institutions value analytical rigor and results frameworks (logframe, ToC). Prior publications or reports are a decisive asset. Familiarity with the bank's procurement procedures is often required.

Technical leadership — Prepare an example of an architectural decision you made, with constraints (budget, timeline, team) and outcomes. African CTOs look for someone who managed real complexity, not just knows the theory.

🎯 Make your application ATS-ready

  • •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.
