 Everyone hopes for a good job someday later in life, but what is a good job? The best job the one that pays better than the others or the one you enjoys doing? How important is it to choose a good job in Kenya? Those are the questions we will be looking at.

Kenya is a country of great educational competition. People become better and better at what they do as days goes by. If you are not good at what you do, the probability of you getting a good job are very slim but if you do, you will not keep it for long and if you do, which is very rare, you will not go up the ranks, unless you use corrupt means. This because the more years pass, the more Kenyan institutions of higher learning produce more and more graduates.

The basis of staying at the top of the game is to make tour passion your profession. Do something you love and earn from it. You will never struggle and you will not have a hard time with cash because money is just secondary, enjoying what you do is primary. I will take the example of Daniel Ndambuki, who goes by the name Churchill. From the days Redikulas and Red Kona were the biggest names in Kenyan comedy, Churchill had a dream which would transform the entire comedy industry. He rose from a simple person to one of the most searched for personalities to host events. Through him Kenya has watched comedians like Chipukizzy, Erick Omondi, MC Jesee, Fred Omondi, Wanjiku the Teacher and many more grow and become independent. Churchill currently hosts Churchill Show, the largest comedy show in East and Central Africa.

Stories of parents who forced their children to take certain professions and the children ended up finishing the dictated careers giving the parents the degree certificates then going ahead to pursue what they love are far too common. Johnson Mwakazi is the only journalist in Kenya with absolutely no training in the field but does exceptionally well, in the industry. He had the passion to do communication but studied a whole different field in campus. His love for journalism, his drive towards what he does best drove him to the industry, where he is the epitome of grammatical correctness.

In conclusion, it is important to follow what one wishes to do, do not let the monetary returns dictate the career you will do. Enjoy the job, the money will just come by itself if you do what you like because you will do it well.

Most people who love acting get to halt in their thinking when the question about how to begin a real acting career comes to mind. The following tips are meant to provide an overview on how to begin that acting career in Kenya. Kenya National Theatre should be the very first stop for any aspiring actor. It is the place where all likeminded actors meet to begin their careers. Other acting groups can also play the part especially for people living outside Nairobi.

Taking acting classes is also important. This is because at the end of the classes, one gets a certificate to show that they are professionals in that field. It is also an added advantage during auditions. Talking of auditions, an aspiring actor has to attend many auditions without getting heartbroken if they do not get the role that they auditioned for. Auditions are the only way to landing an acting role.

Acting, just like any other profession requires marketing. An acting agent does the marketing job for the actor. Getting a good casting agent ensures that the actor gets informed of the various auditions therefore increasing their chances of landing a role. It is also the role of the aspiring actor to market themselves to relevant people.

One should also invest in the profession as well as network with people in the same profession. Investing means dedicating a great deal of time for auditioning while networking means getting to know more people in that profession. The people that one networks with may know other people who may help increase their chances of landing acting roles in the acting industry.

There are many good actors out there. One will require an extra skill that will make them stand out among all other actors. Driving is just one of them. Having done all that, an aspiring actor will require an acting resume which plays a major role in marketing them even more. Lastly, one needs to be very optimistic in order to make it in this field. Attending many auditions without giving up is just the spirit that one needs to make it in this industry.

The process of obtaining a clearance from KRA offices in Kenya takes one day for those Kenyans without any tax issues.

To obtain a means of transportation to the Kenya Anti Corruption Authority offices in Nairobi, one should board a matatu in Kencom area in Nairobi.
