Weekly job hunt checklist

Do this every week. Small consistency beats random panic applications.

Monday — Scan

  • Open Africoders opportunities board
  • Save 5 roles that match your stack
  • Pick 1 role and rewrite 3 CV bullets to match it

Tuesday — Apply

  • Submit 2–3 thoughtful applications (not spray-and-pray)
  • Log company, role, date, and follow-up date

Wednesday — Ship

  • Finish or polish one portfolio project write-up
  • Push one small improvement to a public repo

Thursday — Community

  • Complete today’s Africoders coding challenge (or share yesterday’s)
  • Ask one real question or leave one helpful comment in a group

Friday — Follow up

  • Follow up on applications older than 5–7 days
  • Message 1 builder whose work you admire (specific compliment)

Weekend — Rest + reflect

  • Note what worked this week
  • Plan next week’s target roles
