    Thank you.
    But please, what format can one use to write a statement of purpose to Uppsala University ?
    Will it look like a formal letter with addresses or just a written document with the heading "STATEMENT OF PURPOSE" without addresses ?
    Thank you in advance, ma'am.

    Thank you for sharing this information.
    My question concerns the reference letter for the scholarship: can we get a letter from our professor as an academic letter or does it have to come from the university administration?

  • @bledemionsamuel
    @bledemionsamuel 2 года назад +2

    Thanks. This was more enlightening. I would like to ask about the stamp
    The stamp carries date and sign, should it be signed too? We know there is a space allocated to date and signature. Should the stamp be signed as well?

    • @FONAfrica
      @FONAfrica  2 года назад +3

      Some stamps have space for signature.
      Please, if you can, sign on it.
      But, if your stamp doesn't require a signature, then you are good to go.

    Thanks for the session , and i would like to ask am civil engineer and my work experiences , i worked as site engineering and i would like to ask if my leadership experiences can be project manager.

    • @FONAfrica
      @FONAfrica  Год назад +1

      Dear Claude,
      The project manager sounds great. But, make sure it is what you did. Remember the first speaker stated that titles don't matter much on a CV, but it is your achievements in that role you should highlight.
      Ensure your achievement matches with what how you want them to see you.
      This would be a great time for you to rewatch the first speaker again, he spoke extensively on this and even answered a question from a guests about this.
      Success in your application,
      Chisom for the FON Team.

    Thank you very much for this teaching.
    Please my question is; there are three places on the SI portal to be filled for work experience but only have two work experience and I also engaged in a network. Can I use the network engagement to fill the third place at the work experience on the portal.

    • @FONAfrica
      @FONAfrica  Год назад

      Dear Samuel,
      It's a great idea. But remember your work experience should highlight your achievement in a role and not necessarily your role or title.
      If you wish to go with your idea, then ensure you state specifically what you achieved in that role.
      This would be a great time to rewatch the video again. Pay attention to the first speaker. He spoke extensively on his CV.
      Success in your application,

    Thank you so much for this wonderful video. This is educative.
    Please I want to ask Must you provide proof of work experience for all the work experiences on your CV. For example, I have three work experience on my CV but I could only get two work experience forms (of over 3000) from my referee. Please, is this fine? or I should only include just two work experience on my CV?
    Thanks in anticipation

      ​@@FONAfricaPlease I don't mind you send me same email. I have a similar situation. I listed three work experience in my CV, the current will be 7360 hours by February when I'll be applying for the scholarship. I am surely having work experience form for this current work. Do I still need work experience form for the previous two?

  • @chinecheremkalu1791
    @chinecheremkalu1791 Год назад +1

    This is really good content, thank you. I have a question though, for the templates on Work experience and leadership experience, it has the instruction - "You must merge all the work experience forms and leadership experience forms into one PDF document. Because of the way the form is built up the section where your referee should put their stamp might end up on its own page/a second page. This is not a problem."
    I have 3 of them from 3 different jobs, should I merge them into one or keep them separate one per job?
    Also, my employer removed the instruction pages and left just the templates before they signed. Is this going to be accepted?

    • @FONAfrica
      @FONAfrica  Год назад +1

      Dear Kalu,
      You are in the right. Kindly merge the doc. You can find a website online that helps to merge PDF files in chronological order.
      For the second question, please your referee is right. You don't need the instruction page. Same thing with your CV
      Just don't include the instruction page on any of your docs.
      Success in your application,
      Chisom for the FON Team.

    Hello admin. I figured out Sweden is particular about the queuing system, so I thought best to submit exactly on the 10th. Now my question is when did you submit and do you think it matters? Secondly is that, I now want to modify my ML although it was drafted well, I started very early and got my documents all stamped. Now if I open my application over again, modify and submit does it record my application as submitted in my previous date or the current date prior to my modification.
    Thank you.

    • @FONAfrica
      @FONAfrica  2 года назад +1

      Thank you for reaching out, it doesn't matter when you submit, so far as it's within the duration of the scholarship application.
      Yes, you can modify and edit your application as many times as you want. It is the last submission or edit or modification that would be reviewed.
      Finally, kindly reach out to the SI body via email for any specific questions you have about the scholarship.
      You are doing great! Well done.

      No, please don't add the instruction page while submitting.

    Thank you so much. I understand that we're supposed to fill three work experiences and two leadership roles.
    Note, all the work experiences comes with an email for referee. Now, will SI decide which referee, they'll send a mail because of course they all have referee's mail and about two of my work experience has leadership roles? Or will they send it to me then I send my referee?
    Also in the leadership role that requires a civil society. If I filled my second leadership role to be a civil society, will they send a mail to my civil society referee?
    I also would like to know if SI just sends the template then I'll be the one to send it to my referees. Thank you.
