Abena Asomaning Antwi: From receptionist to boss lady with PhD
As YEN.com.gh also reported, Abena Asomaning Antwi, a Health Economist and Human Rights Advocate has revealed how she once begged to be offered the job of a receptionist with very little remuneration.
The narration was seen by YEN.com.gh on the LinkedIn account of the lady who now holds a Ph.D. in Health Economics from the University of Lille 1, France "I started my career as a receptionist.
At the time I begged to be employed without remuneration, my employer at the time had no need for my services. She already had a warm, capable and beautiful receptionist. I persisted. I wouldn't take no for an answer" she recalls.
