About This Role

This is a field-based verification role at a digital equb (rotating savings) company, where your main job is to physically visit customers' businesses and confirm that what they told the company about themselves is true. Virtual Equb operates in the fintech-adjacent savings space, which means the company's survival depends on trust — and you are one of the people responsible for building that trust from the ground up. It suits someone who enjoys being out in the city rather than sitting at a desk, and who understands that a savings platform lives or dies by the accuracy of its customer data.

What the Requirements Say About This Role

The one-to-three year experience window signals that the company wants someone who has already learned basic workplace discipline but is still hungry and adaptable — this is not a role for someone who needs constant hand-holding. Because the position is narrowly scoped to assessments only, the employer is looking for a person who won't get bored or distracted by doing one thing repeatedly with consistency. The emphasis on field visits implies they need someone comfortable navigating Addis Ababa independently, dealing with shop owners face to face, and working without close supervision. Reliability matters more here than polished customer service experience — showing up on time and submitting clean reports is the whole job.

How to Approach This Application

Your application should make one thing clear above all: you can be trusted to go where you say you went and report what you actually saw. If you have any prior experience involving field data collection, verification, surveys, or even delivery/logistics work that required daily independent movement around the city, highlight it — that's more relevant here than call-center experience. Mention your familiarity with specific areas of Addis Ababa, since territory knowledge reduces the company's training burden. Expect the employer to test your attention to detail and honesty during the interview, possibly with scenario questions about what you'd do if a customer's shop doesn't match their stated address.

Best Fit

Who This Role Suits

This role best suits a junior professional who is organized, naturally thorough, and genuinely comfortable spending most of the workday on the move rather than in an office. Because the requirements are relatively accessible, competition will likely be high — standing out depends less on your CV and more on demonstrating reliability and field-readiness in how you present yourself.
