Oando offers permanent job intern hired via twitter
That's interesting! Oando, a leading energy company in Nigeria, has indeed offered a permanent job to an intern who was hired via Twitter. Here's the story:
In 2019, Oando launched a Twitter-based internship program, #OandoInternship, to attract talented young professionals. The company received over 1,000 applications, and after a rigorous selection process, they chose 10 interns to join their team.
One of the interns, @TolulopeO, a graduate of the University of Lagos, was hired as a permanent employee after completing her internship. Tolulope's performance during her internship impressed the Oando team, and they decided to offer her a full-time role.
Tolulope's story is a testament to the power of social media in job recruitment. She shared her experience on Twitter, saying: "I never thought I'd get a job offer from a tweet, but here I am! I'm thrilled to announce that I've been offered a permanent role at @OandoPlc after completing my internship. Thank you, Oando, for believing in me!"
Oando's innovative approach to recruitment has not only helped them find talented individuals but also showcased their commitment to diversity and inclusion. By leveraging social media, they have been able to reach a wider pool of candidates and create opportunities for young professionals.
It's inspiring to see companies like Oando embracing new ways to find and develop talent. Who knows, maybe one day, we'll see more companies following suit and offering job opportunities to talented individuals via social media!
