She highlighted that she is best suited as an HR manager because she needs no supervision and will endeavour to create a friendly working environment.
"In life, you have only two subjects; reasons or results. Contact me on Info@aknotela.com. No Salary expectations. We shall discuss it after three months," wrote Akothee.
However, some of her followers could not piece together if the songbird was serious and needed the job, forcing the artiste to clarify the ad.
"Madam, I thought you were your own boss," wrote one.
"Yes, nothing has changed," responded Akothee.
Another wondered if Akothee was still rich.
“Yes, I am. It has nothing to do with getting my profession on board. You want my degree to go to waste?" she responded.
Others, however, lauded Akothee's entry into the job market.
"Congratulations. Now register to do the certified human resource professional course and createbe licensed to practice by the Institute of Human Resource Management,” added another.
Where is Akothee Academy?
In other news, Akothee launched an eponymous academy in Rongo, Migori county, and Ida Odinga was the chief guest.
Akothee said she aims to empower and support her community through the initiative.
“Akothee Academy has been on my bucket list since I dropped out of school and saw how useless I was when I could not afford school fees for my children. I would love to offer this opportunity to my community and the nation at large to support and empower my community," said Akothee.
The singer noted that she had sponsored 30 needy students and employed their mothers at the school.
