A lady recently gave her Twitter followers a glimpse into how tough the job hunt has been for her, but through perseverance she has unlocked a new opportunity.
The young lady who goes by the Twitter handle, @MkondeKitha said she got called for a job interview on Monday this week in a company located in the province of the Eastern Cape. But since she lives in KwaZulu-Natal, it was going to be a long journey to get to the interview.
She detailed parts of her journey and Saffas are shocked at what took place.
@MkondeKitha said she took a bus at night from PMB to the Eastern Cape town of Mount Frere. The trip was meant to be four hours but it took double the time because the bus experienced mechanical difficulties.
