"I had a similar experience on my first job. I was serving at the time. My friend had been invited for an interview, while I had not even applied at all. She told me about the interview and the venue.

"I showed up to the interview with my CV. As they called your name, you went in to be interviewed. My dear, I walked into the interview room without anyone calling my name, as I had not even applied. I was about to be walked out when one of the interviewers asked that they let me proceed... The rest they say is history. I got the job!"

Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh previously reported that a lady had got a job she didn't apply for after months of unsuccessful job-hunting.

In her Linkedln post highlighting her journey to securing this job, she said her job-hunting experience wasn't a palatable one.

She took to applying for graduate internship roles but all her efforts proved abortive. The lady named Queen had finally resorted to taking up a volunteering role only to get the shock of her life that she was scheduled for an interview for a job opportunity she didn't put in an application for.
