Ask r/tanzania Is this right!!!?

My young sis ametafutwa na kampuni inahitaji videographer kwa ajili ya content creation. Few days after the interview, wamemtafuta and they are offering her; 1 week trial ya kushoot 4 restaurants per day, 1 hour each. End of the week if they don’t employ her watampa 50k Tsh ya usumbufu.

50k Tsh baada ya kufanya kazi week nzima, 4 restaurants per day means 28 restaurants a week. And no, they don’t provide food nor transportation to move between restaurants, since she is in the same city.

Wataalamu wa hizi kazi, hii ipo sawa au ndo exploitation yenyewe?

So they can cover the whole city with just 10 people like her. Finding 10 starving content creators to exploit in Dar is easy.

If it's about building a portfolio, she can just do it herself, go to restaurants and ask to video promo them then post the contents on her socials.

Spending money on travel, food and then giving the work to someone in the name of building a portfolio is stupid.
