Tunde had stopped opening his emails.
After seven months of job applications, rejections, and hearing nothing back, it was easier to pretend the inbox didn’t exist.
His last job — a warehouse assistant — had ended abruptly when the company downsized.
And since then?
Nothing but silence.
No interviews. No callbacks.
Just mounting pressure and late-night thoughts like:
“Maybe I’m not what they’re looking for anymore.”
His sister, Kemi, called us.
Not because Tunde asked her to.
But because she couldn’t stand watching him shrink a little more every week.
“He’s a good man,” she said.“He just needs someone to believe in him again.”
So we called.
When Tunde picked up, his voice was flat.
He sounded like someone used to disappointment.
But we didn’t offer empty promises — just a chance to talk, listen, and look again.
We rewrote his CV.
Helped him rehearse for interviews he thought he wasn’t good enough for.
And when an opening came up at a local logistics company, we put his name forward.
He almost didn’t go.
“What’s the point?” he mumbled.“They’ll probably find someone better.”
But he did go.
And he got the job.
The magic? It wasn’t just the job offer.
It was the way his shoulders lifted after that first paycheck.
The way he texted us:
“I just bought Kemi lunch. First time in ages. Thank you.”
At Justintime Resourcing, we don’t just help people find jobs.
We help them find hope.
We remind them they’re not invisible.
And we show up — especially when they’re close to giving up.
