A Ghanaian lady has triggered reactions following her advice to the 2024/2025 national service personnel.
In a video that has since gone viral and was sighted on the TikTok page of @theagvoice, the young lady advised service personnel to start looking for jobs in the third month of the mandatory service.
She explained that applying for a job during your mandatory service gives you a sense of what to expect when it comes to job hunting.
Using herself as an example, she said she used the same strategy during her service period, which worked well for her.
"It is possible that a company will interview you for a role and employ you even before you are done with your service.
At the time of writing the report, the video had raked in over 2000 likes and 16 comments.

Use your national service to create more network
In an interview with YEN.com.gh, Mr Suleman Dadzie, the school counsellor and dean of students in charge of discipline at Asuansi Technical Institute, urged service personnel to network and meet people.
"Graduates can use the service experience to position themselves in the job space when they pay attention to skill acquisition, professional development and proper networking. They must stay in touch with their mentors even after the service. They can use such people as referees when seeking employment."
Ghanaians commend her for her advice
Many people who commented on the video thanked the lady for the advice, and some expressed a desire to try it out.
ABBY reacted:
"I’m barely a month into my nss but I’ve started job hunting. I was granted an interview recently and they seem impressed. But one thing I don’t know if I should quit my nss in any case I’m employed."
Fafali reacted:
"NSS can be done for only 6months. Research on that."
Akosua Agyapong added:
"Definitely trying this. Thank you."
