Have you ever heard the phrase 'climbing the corporate ladder?' Obviously, corporations aren't overrun with actual ladders. This phrase is a metaphor for how employees can rise through the ranks of a company, rung by metaphorical rung. Image
Although the structure of 'corporate ladders' can be different for many organizations, they usually all have common rungs among them. If you are interested in being a leader in a company someday, it is important you understand the ladder and how it is made up.
Corporate ladder' is a term used to describe the hierarchy of a company's organizational structure. The concept reflects the levels that must be climbed to get to the top of the organization.

Go online and register your @theCIPC Account, reserve your business name for R50, you must have atleast 3 Names so that if your most preferred name is already taken the next will be registered. After the name has been reserved then register your company with R125 so it's R175
Your BEE Verification status is free on @theCIPC website it doesn't take long for you to receive it and all other documents.
Go to SARS and request the compliance status for free.

*Mini thread*
A relationship requires you to give and take from your partner. Of course, we’re all ready to take, but are we ready to give?
When we’re stuck in our selfish ways, giving can feel like a burden at times. Catering to our own needs feels way more important than someone else’s.

Do you really need a cover letter when you apply for jobs? You might wonder whether you can get by with just a CV, particularly if the company doesn't specifically request or require a cover letter.
How to write it if a company requires it.

(THREAD)
@REV_GIFT
It's only natural to wonder if a cover letter is necessary. After all, writing cover letters can be a time-consuming and challenging task. If there's an option to skip the labor involved in writing one, it's tempting. It can also be a highrisk not to write it though.
In most cases, and particularly when the overall job market or your specific industry is competitive, a cover letter will help your candidacy. Done right, your letter will highlight your most relevant skills and qualifications for the job, making you stand out than the rest.
