If you do not have any work experience to add to your CV. I might have just found a great solution for you. There is this website called Theforagecom that offers free virtual internships where you get work experience in fields such as Law, marketing, consulting ect.

Guys please if you can, try and transition into tech. There’s so many no code opportunities you can transition into and transfer the skills you already have + get free certification and get good pay as well. There’s people making R75000pm from these jobs and it could be you.

If you are a BA or LLB graduates actively seeking for employment, please stay away from Canva resume templates. The ATS software cannot read those CVs and most companies are using ATS at the moment. Rather find a plain template that has content that is in line with the role.

Here are some examples of careers that you can transition from into tech: Marketing - If you work in marketing, you already have skills in branding, social media, and analytics that can be applied to a tech career such as social media management, digital marketing, or UX design.

Besides getting tech jobs, I have researched that making money passively online will improve your quality of life. There are people making $10,000 a month selling digital products. They use apps like Notion and Canva to create templates and sell them in dollars. Let’s learn.
