What is the largest number of people you have ever had to manage, coordinate, or be responsible for at once — and what was the context?(This includes managing a group project, coordinating volunteers, leading a church group, running a WhatsApp community, or any situation where you were responsible for others — formal or informal.)

Write all in words, not numerals.

20

Have you ever independently planned and executed an event, training session, or group activity — from scratch to completion — without someone else managing the logistics for you?

YESNO

21

You said yes. Describe one specific example — not generally, but in the following format:What was the event or activity, and what was its purpose? How many people were involved or attended? Name two specific logistical problems you personally solved during planning. What went wrong on the day, and what did you do about it? (Do not describe something you assisted with. This must be something you owned from start to finish.)

22

You have never run an event independently. Walk us into how you would handle your first one.ifiX needs a half-day employer open day in 5 weeks — 10 companies invited, 2 guest speakers, 15 trainees present. You are the only person organising it. List every task you would handle week by week from today to the day before. Pick the two tasks on your list you are most nervous about — and tell us exactly what you would do to make sure they do not collapse on you. Something goes wrong on the morning of the event — one speaker cancels 2 hours before. What do you do in the next 30 minutes?

23

Have you ever worked in a role where part or all of your pay depended on results?

YESNO

24

Citing specifiers, describe that experience.

25

This role has a performance-based pay structure where your earnings depend directly on results. Are you genuinely comfortable starting with a Ksh 10,000 retainer while you build your performance income?

YESNO

26

You have no prior performance-pay experience. In that case, answer all three:My monthly rent or household financial contribution is approximately Ksh ____ . My current monthly income or financial support is approximately Ksh ____. In 3 sentences, explain how a Ksh 10,000 retainer realistically covers your minimum obligations during Month 1 and Month 2 while you build your performance income.

YESNO

You said yes. Do not describe the relationship in general terms.Name of the business or organisation. Your contact person's name and their role there.

You need to find and secure your first host company for a trainee placement within 30 days. You know nobody. Name two specific types of businesses in Thika or its environs that logically fit ifiX trainees — and explain why each is a fit for which course. Write the exact first message you would send to one of them cold — WhatsApp or walk-in, your choice. They respond: "We've hosted students before and they just sat around doing nothing." Write your reply in 3 sentences.

31

Upload one work sample of your choice. Choose any one of the following:(A) A photo of a social media post you created for any professional or personal purpose. (B) A message, email, or letter you wrote for work or business. (C) A screenshot of a measurable result you achieved — sales figures, event attendance, sign-ups, or similar. (D) If you have none of the above, write 3 sentences by hand explaining why you are the right person for this role, photograph it clearly, and upload that. One upload only.

36

Think about the typical person who would enrol in an ifiX course — their age, background, financial situation, fears, and motivations. Describe this person in a short paragraph, as if you were briefing a new trainer on who they will be teaching. Then list 3 specific fears or doubts this student has when they first consider enrolling, and write one line you would say to address each fear.(Write as if you are speaking to someone who has never met an ifiX trainee before. Make it real, not idealistic.)

37
