Hello guys. I have been following this thread carefully since July last year. I applied for the program in July. I have been waiting for this thing for sevens months now!
I graduated from University of Nairobi in August. Just to give you some info on status of unemployed youths. Last year, I applied for an advertised Livestock Research job. 239 people applied! The organisation only needed 15 researchers. So, I just want to let you know that maybe 1000+ people applied for this program. But take heart because the first thing that cuts people off is the reputation of the university they attended. The grades then follow.
To those people who are jobless and are hoping for this program, put your very best. HELB is gonna come for your neck soon.
