Expert Application Advice
Portfolio photos sur téléphone — Avant de vous présenter, photographiez vos meilleurs travaux récents (avant/après si possible) et organisez-les sur votre téléphone. Un artisan qui montre ses réalisations concrètes convainc immédiatement — c'est infiniment plus fort qu'un CV pour un mécanicien, plombier ou électricien.
Références clients vérifiables — Constituez une liste de clients satisfaits avec leurs numéros de téléphone. Pour les métiers de la main en Afrique, votre réputation locale est votre principal atout commercial. Proposez spontanément au recruteur de les appeler — ceux qui font cette démarche obtiennent presque toujours le poste.
Proposer une période d'essai — Proposez vous-même 2-3 jours d'essai pour prouver vos compétences concrètes sur le chantier ou l'atelier. C'est un signal de confiance très apprécié des PME et employeurs africains : ceux qui osent cette proposition sont perçus comme sûrs d'eux et honnêtes.

- •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.
