Instead of leaving the airport, he said he looked around and realised that multiple companies operated within the same environment.

Determined not to go home unemployed, he decided to approach another company immediately.

“If I drive home now and start acting like a jobless man, sending CVs, I’m finished,” he said.

He walked into a nearby office, introduced himself, and expressed interest in any available opportunity.

According to him, his prior experience working at the airport worked in his favour.

He explained that because he already had clearance to work within the airport environment, he did not need to go through a lengthy recruitment or security process.

The company asked about his qualifications and offered him a new role almost instantly.
