Nigerian Job Applicant’s Response to UK Company’s Rejection Goes Viral

A Nigerian man has become an internet sensation with his humorous response to a job rejection email from a UK company he had made an application.

Dayo, who applied for a support worker position, received an email from the HR department stating that his application was unsuccessful.

Instead of accepting the rejection, Dayo crafted a witty reply that captured the attention of netizens. Expressing gratitude for the previous response, he humorously declined the rejection itself and boldly announced his intention to visit the company’s premises on the 9th of January to acquaint himself with the team.

In his email, Dayo wrote, “Dear HR, Thank you for your response. I could sense the empathy in the previous email. However, I regret to inform you that I reject your rejection. I will be present on the premises on the 9th of January to acquaint myself with the team. Best wishes, Dayo.”

The unexpected and amusing response caught the HR representative, Sonia, off guard. In her reply, she thanked Dayo for his email but pointed out that his CV indicated he was based in Nigeria. Confused by Dayo’s intention to visit the premises in person, Sonia requested clarification on which premises he intended to visit, reminding him that the company was based in the UK.
