Ghana vs Uganada, which Country to put on CV

It's that time of the year again,

Recruitment season is beginning. We all know that to land that BB gig you need to say you are from the Sahara Desert,

But which country do you choose?

France? No that is not in Africa!

Goldman Sachs wants the finest ebony, only the Sahara can make and a 1.0-2.0 CGPA.

I am going with Uganda, there are many Kenyans in IBD and Americans even made Kenyan a President. 

Uganda is the perfect country for CV. It even worked for Elon Musk!

 
  • Extracurricular activities: Western Togoland Restoration Front | 2020 - Present
  • Achievements: Successfully self-recovered from Ebola

just say your dad is president of a national oil company in some african shithole and I heard you are fast tracked to become head of natural resources IBD at goldman sachs with expected total comp of 600k base + $25m in bribes. not too shabby IMO
