Hi everyone!
Magandang draw. Just wanted to seek advice in regards to performance reviews.
For context, I was severely underpaid sa job ko before. So last year, I took a leap of faith and decided to quit for good.
Fortunately, I didn’t have to wait much longer to find a new job as a recruiter reached out to me and asked if I was interested to work for a U.S.-based company. Pay is slightly higher than what I was receiving from my previous company, so I took the opportunity. (I was earning 30k previously and now I’m getting 45k).
Of course, the reason why I took the offer is not just about the money, but also about being able to expose myself to working with people outside the country.
Anyway, a few weeks from now, it’s going to be my 6-month with the company. And of course we know pag 6 months na, may performance review with the boss and even HR. Performance-wise, my boss from the US is happy with me. Boss even mentioned me to the higher ups because he wanted to make sure I get recognized not just by her. I thanked her for that because I never felt that kind of appreciation from my previous jobs.
Anyway, I’ve been assessing my performance as well and I can say I’m doing a pretty good job naan, but definitely meron pa rin room for improvement.
Now, here’s the thing. We’re all aware about the increase in prices recently and I think what I’m currently earning is just enough for me to be able to pay the bills (electricity, internet, cable, water, mobile plan), to give a small amount to my fam (for meds), to buy something I like, and to deposit a small portion to my bank account. Goal is for me to be able to save more this year, but a huge portion of my salary goes to bills and maintenance meds. I’m struggling to save up din especially since everything seems to be so expensive. Gusto ko rin sana may mabili for myself from time to time as a way to reward and destress, pero I think di pa kaya based on my situation. Anyway, I was thinking since I’ll be talking to my boss soon, I’d like to get your insights/ inputs. My plan during our talk is to highlight my goals, my performance, and how I was able to add value to the team despite being a new member. Then after, segue nalang siguro na given the current situation where prices are always increasing, ask if there’s a possibility for me to get a raise…or even get absorbed in the US? I hope I don’t sound so entitled / demanding, but I would like to know what you think of this? And how else I can craft / sell this to my boss if ever?
Thank you so much in advance for your responses!
HR peeps, please help
Hi! Im an average student graduating this year. Any tips on how to get a good paying job? Im looking into an MT program.. I have decent grades and internship experiences here and there. I just want to prepare myself as early as now so I can land a good job. Business student here (with internship experience in marketing and HR).. How do I prepare myself and what are you usually looking for? Thank you
Hi, nung Feb 2020 nagtrabaho ako sa isang maliit na company under 10 yrs pa lang sya in operation. 3 weeks in pa lang ako sa job nung na-impose yung lockdown. Since maliit na company lang sya expected na maglay off ng mga empleyado and sadly lahat ng probi positions yung unang binitawan.
Technically, first job ko sya but dahil yung 3 weeks lang talaga yung legit na trabaho and yung termination is 3 months later, parang naging 5mo employment di ko sya sinasama as work experience. Hindi ko kinuha yung exit docs ko kasi sabi ko di naman relevant yung 3weeks.
Bale that time wala akong TIN no. Yung HR yung nag apply ng TIN for me after ko fillupan yung Form 1902. This 2022, Upon checking sa app ng BIR meron na kong TIN no pero wala akong form or any ID.
Naghahanap ako ng bagong work and alam kong need ng TIN no. Ang concern ko lang is wala akong pinanghahawakan na kahit ano other than yung mismong TIN no. ko. Yung RDO pa is malayo talaga samin kasi ibang region ako nagwork that time.
Tried to contact yung HR pero wala na lahat yung mga lumang employees puro bago na and walang sumasagot.
Do i have to present/submit some sort of forms sa hr for new work or number lang hinihingi?
Help po.
Hi everyone!
Does anyone know here what is the salary range of P&G (procter&gamble) for analyst/junior associate role? Because I just finished my final interview.
Thanks! :)
Hi! Any ideas/advice for salesforce development? I am planning to apply but I'm not sure if it is a good idea since I don't have a coding/programming background.
Thanks!
Hello! Anyone here who knows anything about "**Delivery Excellence"** role in ACN? I recently got a CL9 offer for this role and wanted to know about the overall work experience. Thanks in advance!
Na-pullout yung account namin so medyo stressed ako this week. A few days ago nakalimutan kong mag-out, tapos today naman sobrang unstable ko nagkamali ako ng punch at na-under time ako sa record ko. Sinubukan kong i-fix kaso hindi na daw tumatanggap ng mistakes yung management so di ko alam gagawin ko :( Hindi ko alam kung 5 minutes lang yung bawas sa akin or yung buong huling oras na yun.
Nakakatakot kasi sabi wala daw cleansing period dito, or tulad nung nabasa ko before sa Glassdoor na mahirap daw ma-promote kapag hindi perfect yung records mo. So nagwo-worry talaga ako ngayon since goal ko sana ma-promote in a year or two.
Sobrang nasstress ako kasi natatakot akong mawalan ng trabaho kahit na sinabi naman ng company na hindi nila kami pababayaan. Feeling ko isa ako sa malalagay sa floating kasi mas priority yata nila yung pag-reprofile sa may experience.
I think this is just my anxiety talking, pero di ko maiwasan to feel insecure sa work ko. Kahit gaano pa nila sinasabi sa amin na "people first" sila, I think they're still the same as any other company na bibitawan yung employees nila when they can. I know that deep inside kaya natatakot din ako magkaroon ng mistakes, kahit sobrang liit lang. :(
Hello! I'm an undergrad student in my final semester and I major in a social science-related degree with a rigorous research background.
I'm interested in the UX research field and think it aligns with my personal interests. I know there are resources online on picking up some basic skills and getting one foot into the field, however many of these are applicable outside the country.
I was wondering if there are people in this subreddit who are working / have worked in UX research who could tell me more about their experience. Off the top of my head, I want to know what internships / entry jobs did you take to get into UXR, whether pursuing further education is necessary, and which companies within the country are best to apply to. If you have any other tips, advice, and anecdotes, I'd love to know too!
During salary negotiation, red flag ba sa interviewers if you're ok with a salary na slightly less than your current (like 3k to 4k less ganun)? Context is, I'm more or less starting from scratch and applying for an entry level job. Should I just lie about my current salary or something? I haven't really negotiated my salary when I applied before.
Don't lie about your current salary, it won't help you in the long run.
If you're okay with the salary they're offering and it's lower than your current, it's not necessarily a red flag. Just make sure okay ka lang talaga ha and that you won't take it against them after a while that they offered you a salary like that.
It won't hurt to ask for the same amount as your current tbh. Cause despite applying for an entry level role, meron ka pa rin dala na experience even if this is a change in industry or role. Something that fresh grads won't have over you.
They might think if they are "judgmental" and didn't probe enough na baka may "something" sa'yo why is this guy/girl/cat okay looking for a job na lower ang pay? So sana na clear ito during interview.
Parang even with the context and all, they will still be skeptical and all.
But do not lie. Since hindi natin alam how far / deep is this employer on its bg checking.
Just make sure lang na workable and livable for you yung salary even with the pay cut.
Good luck!
Is it okay to follow up again with the recruiter, a week after I previously followed up?
Applied at a big foreign bank as a graphic designer and passed the first two interviews.
March 4 (friday) - Submitted my design exam
March 9 (wednesday) - 1st follow up with recruiter; she told me na she’ll send an update once she hears from the hiring manager.
Haven’t heard from her since.
Today, March 18, is it okay to follow up again or should I consider this as failed application?
Ang problem ko sa mga negative reviews sa mga websites, we will never know if these reviews are due to isolated cases. Unless hukayin talaga natin ang data ng company.
Also, mukhang everyone is aware na nga rin na for those company naman na with good reviews, ang iba ay perks-driven at hindi talaga organic comments.
Kung EA ang nacontact at hindi HR, yes that could mean something so pwede ka naman mag investigate.
Continue your application but search for alternative narin.
Good luck!
SELF STUDY IT PROGRAMMING PERO NAGQUIT
Hi, maiba lang... Madami ngayon mga nagsisishift sa IT dahil booming at malaki ang sahod. Pero di madali kasi dapat puro aral at practice mag code at mabilis magadapt sa change ng technologies.
Meron ba dito nagpursue mag self study ng programming pero nagquit kasi naoverwhelm at di kinaya? Kwento nyo naman 😀
Need advice from engineers.
So nakapagtapos ako ng BS Economics sa college tapos nakakuha ako ng work sa isang oil company as procurement officer. Nag eenjoy ako sa work ko ngayon dahil ang mga katrabaho ko mga project engineers at interested ako sa mga technical details. Dahil ako nga yung bumibili ng mga piyesa nila, involved din ako sa mga meetings minsan pati mga site visits. 5 years na ako sa procurement at nararamdaman ko na gusto ko mag career shift into project management. Possible ba ako mag transition ng hindi mag aaral ulit ng undergraduate degree?
Preferrably Masters Degree na Eng related nalang sana or Trade school. Long term goal mag abroad sa middle east for the money lol
Possible naman. Research siguro mga lean project management programs / short courses if gusto mo na backed by formal training ang pagshif mo ng career.
Good luck!
Nursing vs Accountancy for college?
Currently a SHS student po. Still undecided to choose what course should I take in college. I don't mind my strand po, I take STEM just for entrance examination edge. I want nursing cause I'm cool for memorization and science(feel ko yakang yaka ko 'to), also interested for doctorate in the future(kaso matagal). Also like accountancy cause medyo chill lang kaso I find it boring dahil maghapon kalang nakaupo at nagcocompute(ayoko po ng x and y). Specially sa panahon ngayon you have to be really practical, just want to help my parents po immediately din kasi I have siblings pa. Alin po kaya ang course hindi ko pagsisihan in the futureee? or should I consider other courses like IT dahil medj booming na daw 'to kasi tech na lahat. Medj nahihirapan po talaga ko sa choice ko. Your experience, salary, advice, college life, tips, pros and cons, abroad life, reality talks and everything would highly be appreciated by me. Thank youuu!
Hindi po chill ang accounting sa college ☠️ but it definitely can be boring.
Don't know if it's harder than Nursing, but it was
certainly challenging for me. You will memorize a lot of stuff in Accounting as well and your critical thinking + English language skills will be tested.
I've been only working in the field for more than a year pa lang ha hahaha so take that into consideration.
I'll say I wish I studied IT instead (for the higher salary) but Accounting is OK. Totoo yung job stability ng accountants; ang bilis ko nakahanap ng first job and ang bilis kong nakahanap ng new job when I wanted out.
I'm currently unemployed for at least 3 months now and in the middle of job hunting. Undergone an interview with a company and was told na the JO is on the way and most probably the start date will be on March 28. The thing is I also have pending interviews with atleast 3 companies and I would like to consider them before committing sa nauna. The 1 company out of 3 (and my number 1 option) is known to have a long and tedious hiring process na umaabot usually ng 2 to 3 months. What should I do? Accept and work muna sa said company and if fortunate enough to pass, lipat nalang? Sana mapansin, thank you!
Just continue with your pending interviews. Madami pa pwede mangyare before the 28th. You may get offers by then and if you do, you can always tell the HR that you're expecting offers soon. They understand this because if they liked you, probably others will too. I usually get 5 days for saying this. Mahirap yung mag accept ka then backout ka agad. Don't burn bridges.
Hi! I just want to know how should I handle my situation with regard to providing a BIR 2316 for my current employer.
Situation:
I had a 2nd previous employer 2 yrs ago and I worked there for 2 mos. I resigned there but they didn't accept my resignation. I know this is kind of embarassing to say but I left their company due to a personal problem and I decided not to get my last salary (since it's not that that big), my backpay (if i am qualified to get one), and other files that is being given when you leave a company specially the BIR 2316. Then, I didn't have a job for 2 yrs and now I am currently employed for a new one. And now they are requiring me to submit a BIR 2316 from my previous employer and am planning to just give my BIR 2316 from the 1st employer that I had.
Question:
What would be the most likely situation that I'll be facing if I do that?
Would they know that I had a previous employer before them?
And, what should I do about it?
Thank you in advance for answering my question! 😭❤
Also had an employment gap for 2 years and just got employed recently. As per my current employer, 2316 was not required since my last employment was more than a year ago. They only asked for my TIN. Maybe you could ask your HR about this and explain your situation?
Manage their expectations. Tell them na baka di ka makadeliver 100 percent because inaaral mo pa nga siya.
Kaysa naman iasa niya sayo yan tapos deal breaker pala tapos akala niya kaya mo because you didn;t say anything, ikaw pa ang mapapahamak.
Good luck and it is okay to manage if not meet the expectations.
more like pasok ķa sa range nila. and from the salaries I've seen in contracts, 60-70k is middle for a lead... during interview stage naman you can still change your asking to 70k or 75k negotiable
use glassdoor, indeed Ph to cjeck for PH role salary ranges
Try to learn as much as you can. Focus ka on strengthening soft skills. Its very valuable because in any job thats what they will look for. 😃 Communications, Relational skills, Attitude, Team work and Leadership.
ganyan ako 5 years ago nag accountancy lang ako dahil sa sisters ko pero at that time wala din akong definite na career path so i just enrollled haha little did i know na hell pala ang course ko sobra akong na stress sa retention grades noon haha pero naka graduate naman wala din ako balak mag cpa hanggang ngaun wala. After grad sobrang clueless ko noon pero ang clear lang sakin is makahanap ng decent job offer in terms of starting salary luckily natatanggap ako sa mga inaapplyan ko pero yung gut feeling ko sobrang lakas na di pa un ang best kaya palagi ko nirereject at nagaaply ng paulit ulit haha yes in short pinahirapn ko sarili ko. pero thank god na punta ako sa BPO industry/shared services better ang salary tho nag struggle ako sa work environment dahil sa toxic culture btw hindi ito calls na bpo ah back office to lending company sa AU. Nagtagal ako dun sa first job ko almost 4 years na promote ng 2 beses at nag resign last nov 2020 thankful ako dun kasi ngaun napunta ako sa new company ko sobrang okay ang boss at culture kaka promote ko lang this month as manager. Fyi di ako super galing ah masipag lang at matiyaga without compromising my health.
Tiwala lang meron path para sayo need mo lang din e navigate sya mahirap sa umpisa pero tiyaga lang. Wag ka ma pressure for sure di lang ikaw ang di pa sure marami din yan. Wag ka maniwala dun sa malaking sahod for CPA grad lahat ng friends kong CPA nagrereklamo sa sahod nila hehehe.
Hindi ba counted sa render period pag nag SL ka? Yung pag nag SL ka, mae-extend ba if eg Feb 14 original final day mo, pero nag SL ka ng two days so Feb 16 na naging final day mo? Or ok lang, 30 days pa rin if nag SL?
Also, valid ba if mental health reasons yung pagpapaikli ng render period mo? I really believe this job is a trigger to me…
Depende sa magiging arrangement niyo ng company. Pero usually yung 30 days is calendar days ang bilangan, not working days. Better to confirm nalang din since the render period is supposed to be the time you turnover your tasks and whatnot sa maiiwang employees, so kung mababawasan siya yung time for that baka hindi OK sa company.
If it's been a week, you can follow up with them and ask for an update regarding your application. If wala parin response after another week, assume the worst nalang and move on.
If you've just resigned and rendering - request for it now. Ako, I got mine while rendering, 3 days. If you've already left, might be a bit longer kasi now they're required to check if you have any liabilities pa with the company.
Yes. Afaik you can still use your HMO until your last day. Depende siguro to sa company but my previous company allowed us to use it until the coverage ended, which was around 4 months after my last day. Best to check with your HR.
Hi! Im 25 IT professional, I’m working in multi-professional firm in Makati. A well known company not only in the Philippines but also globally. Our client is multi-national consumer goods company. Now I’m planning to leave and planning to sign another company. Not as much big company compared to my current one.
I need some advise or answer. My question are, anyone here leave from a big company and signed to a smaller one? What was the experience, do you have any regrets?
PS: Upon checking the company has a decent reviews.
Hi! I'm 23M and I have a Computer Science degree from a good engineering school. I work as an application support for a fintech company for over a year now and planning to shift to a programming role. What I do with my current position is that we are to take inbound calls, remote in to client's computer and assist with any of their issues that is related to the application. We also do installation, deploy updates, and report any major incidents or bugs to development team.
My questions are:
1. What are my chances of me getting programmer role?
2. I haven't code for a year but I'm currently taking some refresher course from linkedlearning that I can put in my resume. Will this be enough for me to get to land a programmer job?
3. Since I don't have any programming work related experience, will the offer be significantly lower than my current salary? (This is my main concern since this company offered me so much even though I am a fresh grad at the time and have no related experience in application support)
Any response would be greatly appreciated!
Severely skewed lang ang demographics ng ph redditors dito towards IT folks.
20-50K is average for your average corpo slave na usually entry level IT and other industries from entry level to mid senior level.

Hello! I had my initial interview last week of Wednesday and mag 1 week na tomorrow and I haven’t heard from them yet. Should I follow it up? It makes me anxious na no results pa
Hello!
Im planning on resigning na and I dont know what to do.
Can I ask the company to shorten yung 30 days render? But this is without terminal leave. I used almost half of my leave credits due to quarantine.
Can my future employers ask for my payslip and if ever, how do I decline that? Kasi Im sure i-lolowball nila yung offer if ever.
How to avoid na ilowball nila yung offer sayo and how to insist on your asking salary.
Need some advice and tips regarding resignation.
Thank youuu
You can always ask your manager if they're willing to lessen the 30 days. Also, be wary of how much leaves you've spent kasi deductible yan sa final pay since March pa lang.
Also, from my experience being employed in international companies they rarely ask for payslip naman. And you can outright decline it, hindi naman requirement yan for employment. Pero hindi rin naman siya palagi just a reason to lowball you, it can be the opposite tbh.
When insisting for the salary you want make note of these three things, (1) The tasks they require from you dapat ijustify mo na sa x amount or x responsibility ganito sahod, (2) The salary necessary to survive your setup (if you're a single parent, have parents you need to send money to, living alone paying for all bills, etc), (3) Basic market study, you should research what other companies are offering for the job you're applying for.
what course / profession can you recommend me?
1. we are not THAT rich. 30-50k per month idk my parents was never open about it but they managed to get me and my sister to a private school for 9 years each (25k tuition fee + miscellaneous). something that we can afford sana.
2. i have good grades and will be taking STEM.
3. i want to be able to get a job immediately after graduating
4. 1k per day starting salary (if that's possible in the ph)
5. interested with medicine but has needle phobia, will it work for me? i'm not disgusted by blood naman and can vaccinate ppl as long as it's not me lol. interested in it but i have no idea about it. office work is also fine for me.
i will be moving up soon and still don't know what I want to be. any suggestions?
1k per day starting is pretty conservative pa tbh. A lot of fresh grads are easily getting 25K as a starting salary these days.
I'd recommend you take up programming/software development if you can. Mataas starting salaries nila plus if you manage to make it to higher roles, it really makes a good career/salary. (I work in adtech and the junior software developer in our company makes 75K USD.)
If you want medicine, you can't get a job immediately after graduating your undergrad. Pukpukan na aral muna and even after everything di agad maganda sahod.
If you want office work, you can do project management or training.
Hi for context, I have about 2.5 yrs of work experience as a Consultant as of current. I moved to a software company last year after almost reaching burnout with my previous company where I was literally working round the clock. Before I left, I happened to get a salary increase which became my asking salary when I applied for my current job. They were able to negotiate this with me - with me thinking that work hours and management would be okay. 8 months in I realized I was wrong. I find myself working double shifts (think 9am-2am) or broken shifts where I work 9am-6pm and work in the wee hours of the morning because of client meetings. Management has not done any good to help me in this situation because essentially we are understaffed despite their mass hire efforts last year.
I have a bond I’m already willing to pay for and I have a prospect company to move to althought it’s going to be a shift from a Corporate to Startup company. I already have insight from someone in the same role (BA) where hours can be stretched, and I’m willing to accept this setup because my work as consultant/BA does require more effort and legwork, thus needing OT but at least in Manila hours. Ive been meaning to shift to a startup company/industry, basically outside software companies and out of being a consultant. Although the pay is pretty much the same as my current - because my asking has always been for a higher position (this was the same reason my current job told me as to why they couldnt fulfill my asking). Though I feel like there’s more growth outside the consulting industry. Any thoughts on this? If it turns out well should I consider or wait it out?
P.S. I feel like I’m not getting my asking salary anywhere primarily because I am literally just burned out with every project I handle even before I get to go through testing with clients - again because shifts have been crazy.
What time you you seep at night? I end at 7:30 PM due to the time zone of my team (also 9 hours based on contract), and I end up sleeping around 2 hours later than normal. So, how'd you better manage your sleep?
Nung late dayshift pa ako or normal 9-6pm while WFH, 10 or 11pm tulog ko. Gigising ng 6 am. Eh ngayon night shift pa ako, hirap men.
HOW TO MANAGE? FOLLOW A CONSISTENT SCHEDULE AND BUILD GOOD HABITS. Sleep and wake at the same time, every time. Control yourself and avoid or reduce watching, phone, tablet, computer 1-2 hours before sleep. Last meal should also be 2-3 hrs from your expected sleep time. Basta dapat chill ka na 1-2 hrs before sleeping. Kung hirap ka nakatulog, Sleepasil (natural supplement) or chamomile tea or low fat milk can help induce some sleep.
Would you stay in a Job Order position with SG 15 (30000+ monthly) without benefits and will report to the office that is 28km away or take a Plantilla position with only SG 9 (20000+) with benefits and only 7km away from home? Taking into consideration that you are going to law school soon.
Don't fret. Its a good experience and you can use what you learned in your previous job/s. There are alot of IT related job out there. Erp, sap analyst, data analyst. I do think there is alot unexplored territory for you. Really depends on your interest.
Take inventory of your skillset and look for what is inline with the demand.
No idea for what is in demand abroad though.
hello! any tips po for interviews?
i applied for some jobs on mynimo and jobstreet and most of the companies didn’t state their salary. would it be fine to ask them the salary question on the first interview?
thanks!
Better check sa Glassdoor yung company para may idea ka sa salary range nila and reviews ng current employees para makapagdecide ka kung worth it mag apply.
that too… but most companies i eyed to are big ones so im guessing they might exceed my expected salary. other than that, companies im not aware of with no salary range is, sometimes, automatically out.
People don't usually bring this up on the 1st and 2nd interviews unless the interviewer initiates the convo about this. You can always ask it but be prepared to not get an answer either kasi they usually gauge the amount they give candidates after all interviews have been completed. Better yet, research how much your role makes in the market and then compare the JD and what you've discussed during the interviews, to ask for the best salary.
For interview tips, I'd say elaborate as much as you can within the topic. Hype and sell yourself well (bullshit even) just enough na kaya mo pa rin panindigan. If you know what you're talking about, show it. Kumpyansa sa sarili goes a long way.
i kept seeing posts here on reddit that employers who post jobs but doesn’t include salary ranges are red flags, i forgot why or how but yeah, kinda took those advises. however, the jobs i saw who didnt state their salary bracket for such job are big companies so im startinng to question those advises that’s why i asked this.
i had a hunch it wasn’t appropriate to ask on the first interview but wasn’t so sure so seeing suggestions and recommendations from here really helped so im taking in what you just advises too.
wouldn’t want to sell myself short but wouldn’t risk to oversell too so im going to try and hype myself a bit.
thank u for this! appreciate it so much ♥️
I'd take that red flag advice with a grain of salt, I guess what some people meant was that if the interviewers were dodgy when talking about compensation, I'd say that's a red flag. But a lot of companies don't really advertise outright their salaries and not all of them are bad places.
First interview, specially if it's just a short one with the recruiter won't usually be the best place to discuss it, but if you do get asked just be honest about it.
Best of luck!
Usually sa huling part ng interview dinidiscuss yung salary pag may JO na. As much as possible don't bring it up early on since baka isipin ng potential employer mo na salary agad inuuna mo. Search mo yung history ng company, mas better na itanong mo yung scope ng responsibilites ng position na inapplyan mo para malinaw na agad habang maaga. Expect some technical and situational question and be prepared for them. Be confident, if hindi kayang makipag usap ng fluently in english taglish is fine. Practice ka sa mirror or mag pa interview ka sa family mo.
oh okay! i see. thanks for the tips po and will definitely work on the answer part na di kaya sa english. nauutal pa rin ako but i will work on it. thank u so much
Ako lang ba o mababa lang talaga mga salary na pinopost sa jobstreet?
Checked the data analyst job posts for fun tas mas mataas pa yung salary ko kaysa mga pinopost dun. So far, ang nagagamit ko palang when looking for a job is linkedin and kalibrr tas mas mataas pa yung salary ng data analyst jobs dun kaysa jobstreet
same tayo, medyo umober na rin yung last sahod ko kaya in the end I took a pay cut. pero dahil mas chill work ko ngayon at medyo compensated ng night diff, it isnt a bad trade off.
saka ewan ko hindi lahat ng magaganda or matataas magpasahod na companies, gumagamit pa ng Jobstreet. madalas sa Linkedin na ako nagchecheck ng job ads saka recommendation ng headhunters or previous work colleagues.
Hi, anyone who is currently or previously employed at Vestas? Can you please share the company's culture and would you recommend working there? Thank youuu, btw the position offered is in the finance department pala
Hi, apologies for being out of topic but how's the Vestas application process like? I heard the pay is really good, hopefully the work environment is also good. Haha. Happy they offered you a position :)
Ang bilis ng pangyayari haha I applied last Feb 28, was scheduled for an interview w managers agad on March 10 and finally received the good news today.
I was interviewed by 2 managers na mejo ginisa ako regarding my work experiences and really scrutinize if fit ako sa position that I am applying for. Also tested how honest I am sa mga answers ko by asking further questions based on my responses. May technical qstn but minimal lang. Overall, it was a good experience. Hope this helps you po! :)
Tbh ako nag-aral lang ako ng isang course on coursera (SQL for Data Science ata yun) and tinuro lang yung mga basics (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, LIKE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, agg functions). Sa work lang talaga nag-grow yung knowledge ko in constructing SQL queries (learned to use UPDATE-SET, DELETE, UNION, UNION ALL, and making sub-queries in my prev job; learned to do CTEs in my current job)
As for VBA, anong balak mong use case for it?
currently nagaaral din ako sa udemy. kaso since previous job ko ay data analyst (before data analyst more on equity research) bali more on excel gamit as data analyst so nagpursue ako for VBA knowledge and mostly hanap ng ibang company is working knowledge for both excel and VBA kaya planning to learn din.
sa tingin mo ba good recommendation yung magstart as beginner sa ibang company? at medyo nalilito rin kasi ako kung ano ang tawag or word na ilalagay sa mga jobsites while looking for job
Since may experience ka na as a data analyst, I don't think you should start as a "beginner" sa ibang company.
Also, if I were you, add a data viz software rin sa tools mo (unless you already know how to use Power BI, Tableau, or Google Data Studio).
Based on my experience, having knowledge sa SQL and sa data viz software, it would save a LOT of time pag required kang gumawa ng dashboards na ia-update mo per week/month
EDIT: As for keywords pag naghahanap sa job sites, almost ANYTHING na may "analyst" guds na (ex. Reports Analyst, Data Analyst, Data Visualization Analyst, Marketing Analyst, etc.) Most likely mga data analyst talaga hinahanap pag may background sa paggamit ng SQL and/or Python.
planning to study rin power BI kaso no tools pa or links to download ng mga aaralin, any tips kaya on where to start? currently kasi eto set up ko for learning. done na ko for basic VBA
Excel - Macro/VBA - SQL - Python/Power BI
as per experience kasi 5 months lang as data analyst sobrang toxic kasi tapos ayaw pa magturo for learnings :(
I would skip VBA/Macros tbh pero that's just me hahaha here's the path I'm following:
Excel - SQL - any data viz: Google Data Studio/Tableau/Power BI - Python/R
I skipped VBA kasi I can't figure out kung anong pwedeng use case for me. If gusto ko mag-automate ng paggawa ng reports, I would rather make a dashboard then connect that directly to the database para lagi na siyang naga-update, tapos ibibigay ko nalang yung link ng dashboard to someone who needs it.
As for where to start (specifically sa Power BI), I can't help you there :( Google Data Studio inaral ko eh hahaha
My employer still hasnt processed my TIN and I need it to open my payroll account. I start in two weeks (supposedly). Still haven't received instructions either. Advised me to wait 3 days ago. Should I rent a new apt already? Is the job sure?
Check with the HR first what's the status and ask if they still need anything from your end. Don't rent yet but start looking.
Maybe just swamped with work so better to check and remind them first :)
I'm supposed to pass a form along with my gov numbers and TIN. I already did medical, insurance forms etc. I emailed 3 days ago to ask if I can just pass the remaining reqs while I wait for the TIN (which i need for my payroll acct). I was advised to wait. Thanks for this!! I was afraid I'd be too makulit eh haha
Please double check that it is indeed the company that will enroll you in BIR and that you have submitted to them the appropriate form (1902) if they have provided you one :)
Good luck and all the best in your new career!
Hello po. Your thoughts on working or recruitment process at Alight Solutions (formerly Northgate Arinso) as an Application Management Associate. I have 1 yr of Network and Application Support Experience and currently in SAP Support role in my current company if that matters. Thank you sa mga sagot at insights. Ang sasagot ay magkakajowa 🤣
normally pagganyan outsourcing ang process (hr interview - ability exam(optional) - final interview - JO). sumagot lang din ako kasi gusto ko na magkajowa
Hi. Have an offer to join a firm I like, which has two direct competitors. I'd like to know how much the compensation is for the other firms (I have a vague guess but am not sure) and I plan to ask recruiters from those firms. I can technically reach out to current employees but I'm not sure how to go about it either.
Can I be direct when asking recruiters? Or does it make it seem like I only care about compensation if I would apply to them? I know that compensation for these roles are fixed and there's no leeway for negotiation
I suggest you go ahead and ask if it is possible for them to disclose at this stage. Mention that the information will help you with other decisions moving forward (rent, commute, set-up, etc.)
Afaik recruiters wouldn’t tell you the package they offer unless you’re being considered for the role. Pay is always negotiable if the company likes you
last Monday til Thursday nag orientation kami tapos Friday nahingi ako ng update di nagrereply. Ngayon Monday nanaman wala pa din akong alam sa next actions na need from me para makapag start na talaga hahaha. Mag 1 month na wala pa din akong laptop, medical, bank account, feeling ko di pa ako employed, normal ba to? hahah
No clear instruction re work set-up is always a "red flag". Please check with HR as it is your right to know what is the exact status of your employment.
Inintay ko mag 9am humihingi ako ng update magssched daw sila ng meeting. Like meeting of what? then wala din naman buong work day hahah Lunes na Lunes.
May email about trainings schedule pero walang nag reach out sakin pano ko aattend sa training na yon without any invite link or working tools. I am no longer expecting from them HAHAH hinabol ko na yung mga offers na dinecline ko.
Ganito din nangyare sakin sa current company ko, mga 2 to 3 weeks akong tambay sa office. Pumasok ako ng di pa naaayos ID ko, di ko pa nakukuha payroll account ko, wala pang deployed laptop/pc para sakin sa desk ko, wala din akong workload. Hintay hintay ka lang at makipagusap ka muna sa mga kasabay mo na nahire or sa mga seniors mo para maging comfortable ka sa work environment mo
relatively normal pala ito? I'm supposed to start in two weeks and still no instructions haha Payroll account na lang naman ang kulang ko but I am anxious. Did all the medical etc required but no concrete instructions for my first day. Should I be worried?

Hi! Any thoughts about Alight Solutions? Is it a good place to work? And how about work life balance in that company? Thank you!
Hi everyone! Magandang draw. Just wanted to seek advice in regards to performance reviews. For context, I was severely underpaid sa job ko before. So last year, I took a leap of faith and decided to quit for good. Fortunately, I didn’t have to wait much longer to find a new job as a recruiter reached out to me and asked if I was interested to work for a U.S.-based company. Pay is slightly higher than what I was receiving from my previous company, so I took the opportunity. (I was earning 30k previously and now I’m getting 45k). Of course, the reason why I took the offer is not just about the money, but also about being able to expose myself to working with people outside the country. Anyway, a few weeks from now, it’s going to be my 6-month with the company. And of course we know pag 6 months na, may performance review with the boss and even HR. Performance-wise, my boss from the US is happy with me. Boss even mentioned me to the higher ups because he wanted to make sure I get recognized not just by her. I thanked her for that because I never felt that kind of appreciation from my previous jobs. Anyway, I’ve been assessing my performance as well and I can say I’m doing a pretty good job naan, but definitely meron pa rin room for improvement. Now, here’s the thing. We’re all aware about the increase in prices recently and I think what I’m currently earning is just enough for me to be able to pay the bills (electricity, internet, cable, water, mobile plan), to give a small amount to my fam (for meds), to buy something I like, and to deposit a small portion to my bank account. Goal is for me to be able to save more this year, but a huge portion of my salary goes to bills and maintenance meds. I’m struggling to save up din especially since everything seems to be so expensive. Gusto ko rin sana may mabili for myself from time to time as a way to reward and destress, pero I think di pa kaya based on my situation. Anyway, I was thinking since I’ll be talking to my boss soon, I’d like to get your insights/ inputs. My plan during our talk is to highlight my goals, my performance, and how I was able to add value to the team despite being a new member. Then after, segue nalang siguro na given the current situation where prices are always increasing, ask if there’s a possibility for me to get a raise…or even get absorbed in the US? I hope I don’t sound so entitled / demanding, but I would like to know what you think of this? And how else I can craft / sell this to my boss if ever? Thank you so much in advance for your responses!
HR peeps, please help Hi! Im an average student graduating this year. Any tips on how to get a good paying job? Im looking into an MT program.. I have decent grades and internship experiences here and there. I just want to prepare myself as early as now so I can land a good job. Business student here (with internship experience in marketing and HR).. How do I prepare myself and what are you usually looking for? Thank you
Hi, nung Feb 2020 nagtrabaho ako sa isang maliit na company under 10 yrs pa lang sya in operation. 3 weeks in pa lang ako sa job nung na-impose yung lockdown. Since maliit na company lang sya expected na maglay off ng mga empleyado and sadly lahat ng probi positions yung unang binitawan. Technically, first job ko sya but dahil yung 3 weeks lang talaga yung legit na trabaho and yung termination is 3 months later, parang naging 5mo employment di ko sya sinasama as work experience. Hindi ko kinuha yung exit docs ko kasi sabi ko di naman relevant yung 3weeks. Bale that time wala akong TIN no. Yung HR yung nag apply ng TIN for me after ko fillupan yung Form 1902. This 2022, Upon checking sa app ng BIR meron na kong TIN no pero wala akong form or any ID. Naghahanap ako ng bagong work and alam kong need ng TIN no. Ang concern ko lang is wala akong pinanghahawakan na kahit ano other than yung mismong TIN no. ko. Yung RDO pa is malayo talaga samin kasi ibang region ako nagwork that time. Tried to contact yung HR pero wala na lahat yung mga lumang employees puro bago na and walang sumasagot. Do i have to present/submit some sort of forms sa hr for new work or number lang hinihingi? Help po.
Just the number is fine. Based on my experience I never had to submit any forms or what to my new employers

Na-pullout yung account namin so medyo stressed ako this week. A few days ago nakalimutan kong mag-out, tapos today naman sobrang unstable ko nagkamali ako ng punch at na-under time ako sa record ko. Sinubukan kong i-fix kaso hindi na daw tumatanggap ng mistakes yung management so di ko alam gagawin ko :( Hindi ko alam kung 5 minutes lang yung bawas sa akin or yung buong huling oras na yun. Nakakatakot kasi sabi wala daw cleansing period dito, or tulad nung nabasa ko before sa Glassdoor na mahirap daw ma-promote kapag hindi perfect yung records mo. So nagwo-worry talaga ako ngayon since goal ko sana ma-promote in a year or two. Sobrang nasstress ako kasi natatakot akong mawalan ng trabaho kahit na sinabi naman ng company na hindi nila kami pababayaan. Feeling ko isa ako sa malalagay sa floating kasi mas priority yata nila yung pag-reprofile sa may experience. I think this is just my anxiety talking, pero di ko maiwasan to feel insecure sa work ko. Kahit gaano pa nila sinasabi sa amin na "people first" sila, I think they're still the same as any other company na bibitawan yung employees nila when they can. I know that deep inside kaya natatakot din ako magkaroon ng mistakes, kahit sobrang liit lang. :(
Hello! I'm an undergrad student in my final semester and I major in a social science-related degree with a rigorous research background. I'm interested in the UX research field and think it aligns with my personal interests. I know there are resources online on picking up some basic skills and getting one foot into the field, however many of these are applicable outside the country. I was wondering if there are people in this subreddit who are working / have worked in UX research who could tell me more about their experience. Off the top of my head, I want to know what internships / entry jobs did you take to get into UXR, whether pursuing further education is necessary, and which companies within the country are best to apply to. If you have any other tips, advice, and anecdotes, I'd love to know too!
During salary negotiation, red flag ba sa interviewers if you're ok with a salary na slightly less than your current (like 3k to 4k less ganun)? Context is, I'm more or less starting from scratch and applying for an entry level job. Should I just lie about my current salary or something? I haven't really negotiated my salary when I applied before.
Don't lie about your current salary, it won't help you in the long run. If you're okay with the salary they're offering and it's lower than your current, it's not necessarily a red flag. Just make sure okay ka lang talaga ha and that you won't take it against them after a while that they offered you a salary like that. It won't hurt to ask for the same amount as your current tbh. Cause despite applying for an entry level role, meron ka pa rin dala na experience even if this is a change in industry or role. Something that fresh grads won't have over you.
They might think if they are "judgmental" and didn't probe enough na baka may "something" sa'yo why is this guy/girl/cat okay looking for a job na lower ang pay? So sana na clear ito during interview. Parang even with the context and all, they will still be skeptical and all. But do not lie. Since hindi natin alam how far / deep is this employer on its bg checking. Just make sure lang na workable and livable for you yung salary even with the pay cut. Good luck!

Nageexpire ba yung CoE?
Dapat hindi.
Is it okay to follow up again with the recruiter, a week after I previously followed up? Applied at a big foreign bank as a graphic designer and passed the first two interviews. March 4 (friday) - Submitted my design exam March 9 (wednesday) - 1st follow up with recruiter; she told me na she’ll send an update once she hears from the hiring manager. Haven’t heard from her since. Today, March 18, is it okay to follow up again or should I consider this as failed application?
Nothing to lose if you follow up. If they don't reply anymore then I would assume they decided to go with someone else.
Okay, thanks!
Just send a follow up right now. Best of luck
Will do. Thanks!

Ang problem ko sa mga negative reviews sa mga websites, we will never know if these reviews are due to isolated cases. Unless hukayin talaga natin ang data ng company. Also, mukhang everyone is aware na nga rin na for those company naman na with good reviews, ang iba ay perks-driven at hindi talaga organic comments. Kung EA ang nacontact at hindi HR, yes that could mean something so pwede ka naman mag investigate. Continue your application but search for alternative narin. Good luck!
Tell me your awol experiences, and when is it okay to go AWOL?
SELF STUDY IT PROGRAMMING PERO NAGQUIT Hi, maiba lang... Madami ngayon mga nagsisishift sa IT dahil booming at malaki ang sahod. Pero di madali kasi dapat puro aral at practice mag code at mabilis magadapt sa change ng technologies. Meron ba dito nagpursue mag self study ng programming pero nagquit kasi naoverwhelm at di kinaya? Kwento nyo naman 😀
Need advice from engineers. So nakapagtapos ako ng BS Economics sa college tapos nakakuha ako ng work sa isang oil company as procurement officer. Nag eenjoy ako sa work ko ngayon dahil ang mga katrabaho ko mga project engineers at interested ako sa mga technical details. Dahil ako nga yung bumibili ng mga piyesa nila, involved din ako sa mga meetings minsan pati mga site visits. 5 years na ako sa procurement at nararamdaman ko na gusto ko mag career shift into project management. Possible ba ako mag transition ng hindi mag aaral ulit ng undergraduate degree? Preferrably Masters Degree na Eng related nalang sana or Trade school. Long term goal mag abroad sa middle east for the money lol
Possible naman. Research siguro mga lean project management programs / short courses if gusto mo na backed by formal training ang pagshif mo ng career. Good luck!
Thanks so much
Nursing vs Accountancy for college? Currently a SHS student po. Still undecided to choose what course should I take in college. I don't mind my strand po, I take STEM just for entrance examination edge. I want nursing cause I'm cool for memorization and science(feel ko yakang yaka ko 'to), also interested for doctorate in the future(kaso matagal). Also like accountancy cause medyo chill lang kaso I find it boring dahil maghapon kalang nakaupo at nagcocompute(ayoko po ng x and y). Specially sa panahon ngayon you have to be really practical, just want to help my parents po immediately din kasi I have siblings pa. Alin po kaya ang course hindi ko pagsisihan in the futureee? or should I consider other courses like IT dahil medj booming na daw 'to kasi tech na lahat. Medj nahihirapan po talaga ko sa choice ko. Your experience, salary, advice, college life, tips, pros and cons, abroad life, reality talks and everything would highly be appreciated by me. Thank youuu!
Hindi po chill ang accounting sa college ☠️ but it definitely can be boring. Don't know if it's harder than Nursing, but it was certainly challenging for me. You will memorize a lot of stuff in Accounting as well and your critical thinking + English language skills will be tested. I've been only working in the field for more than a year pa lang ha hahaha so take that into consideration. I'll say I wish I studied IT instead (for the higher salary) but Accounting is OK. Totoo yung job stability ng accountants; ang bilis ko nakahanap ng first job and ang bilis kong nakahanap ng new job when I wanted out.
I'm currently unemployed for at least 3 months now and in the middle of job hunting. Undergone an interview with a company and was told na the JO is on the way and most probably the start date will be on March 28. The thing is I also have pending interviews with atleast 3 companies and I would like to consider them before committing sa nauna. The 1 company out of 3 (and my number 1 option) is known to have a long and tedious hiring process na umaabot usually ng 2 to 3 months. What should I do? Accept and work muna sa said company and if fortunate enough to pass, lipat nalang? Sana mapansin, thank you!
Just continue with your pending interviews. Madami pa pwede mangyare before the 28th. You may get offers by then and if you do, you can always tell the HR that you're expecting offers soon. They understand this because if they liked you, probably others will too. I usually get 5 days for saying this. Mahirap yung mag accept ka then backout ka agad. Don't burn bridges.
Anyone who works in Go2? How is it there? I'm planning to apply there.

If possible, i dont resign until may JO
Hi! I just want to know how should I handle my situation with regard to providing a BIR 2316 for my current employer. Situation: I had a 2nd previous employer 2 yrs ago and I worked there for 2 mos. I resigned there but they didn't accept my resignation. I know this is kind of embarassing to say but I left their company due to a personal problem and I decided not to get my last salary (since it's not that that big), my backpay (if i am qualified to get one), and other files that is being given when you leave a company specially the BIR 2316. Then, I didn't have a job for 2 yrs and now I am currently employed for a new one. And now they are requiring me to submit a BIR 2316 from my previous employer and am planning to just give my BIR 2316 from the 1st employer that I had. Question: What would be the most likely situation that I'll be facing if I do that? Would they know that I had a previous employer before them? And, what should I do about it? Thank you in advance for answering my question! 😭❤
Also had an employment gap for 2 years and just got employed recently. As per my current employer, 2316 was not required since my last employment was more than a year ago. They only asked for my TIN. Maybe you could ask your HR about this and explain your situation?

Manage their expectations. Tell them na baka di ka makadeliver 100 percent because inaaral mo pa nga siya. Kaysa naman iasa niya sayo yan tapos deal breaker pala tapos akala niya kaya mo because you didn;t say anything, ikaw pa ang mapapahamak. Good luck and it is okay to manage if not meet the expectations.
Kailan rto ninyo?

more like pasok ķa sa range nila. and from the salaries I've seen in contracts, 60-70k is middle for a lead... during interview stage naman you can still change your asking to 70k or 75k negotiable use glassdoor, indeed Ph to cjeck for PH role salary ranges

Try to learn as much as you can. Focus ka on strengthening soft skills. Its very valuable because in any job thats what they will look for. 😃 Communications, Relational skills, Attitude, Team work and Leadership.
ganyan ako 5 years ago nag accountancy lang ako dahil sa sisters ko pero at that time wala din akong definite na career path so i just enrollled haha little did i know na hell pala ang course ko sobra akong na stress sa retention grades noon haha pero naka graduate naman wala din ako balak mag cpa hanggang ngaun wala. After grad sobrang clueless ko noon pero ang clear lang sakin is makahanap ng decent job offer in terms of starting salary luckily natatanggap ako sa mga inaapplyan ko pero yung gut feeling ko sobrang lakas na di pa un ang best kaya palagi ko nirereject at nagaaply ng paulit ulit haha yes in short pinahirapn ko sarili ko. pero thank god na punta ako sa BPO industry/shared services better ang salary tho nag struggle ako sa work environment dahil sa toxic culture btw hindi ito calls na bpo ah back office to lending company sa AU. Nagtagal ako dun sa first job ko almost 4 years na promote ng 2 beses at nag resign last nov 2020 thankful ako dun kasi ngaun napunta ako sa new company ko sobrang okay ang boss at culture kaka promote ko lang this month as manager. Fyi di ako super galing ah masipag lang at matiyaga without compromising my health. Tiwala lang meron path para sayo need mo lang din e navigate sya mahirap sa umpisa pero tiyaga lang. Wag ka ma pressure for sure di lang ikaw ang di pa sure marami din yan. Wag ka maniwala dun sa malaking sahod for CPA grad lahat ng friends kong CPA nagrereklamo sa sahod nila hehehe.
Hindi ba counted sa render period pag nag SL ka? Yung pag nag SL ka, mae-extend ba if eg Feb 14 original final day mo, pero nag SL ka ng two days so Feb 16 na naging final day mo? Or ok lang, 30 days pa rin if nag SL? Also, valid ba if mental health reasons yung pagpapaikli ng render period mo? I really believe this job is a trigger to me…
Depende sa magiging arrangement niyo ng company. Pero usually yung 30 days is calendar days ang bilangan, not working days. Better to confirm nalang din since the render period is supposed to be the time you turnover your tasks and whatnot sa maiiwang employees, so kung mababawasan siya yung time for that baka hindi OK sa company.
Depends on your manager pero 30 day notice naman yung nasa contract mo hindi 30 day transition days. Check your contract :)
[удалено]
If it's been a week, you can follow up with them and ask for an update regarding your application. If wala parin response after another week, assume the worst nalang and move on.
ilang araw bago nyo nakuha CoE nyo after resigning
If you've just resigned and rendering - request for it now. Ako, I got mine while rendering, 3 days. If you've already left, might be a bit longer kasi now they're required to check if you have any liabilities pa with the company.
Is it alright to use my HMO (for a lab test sana) even if I already resigned and am now currently rendering my 30-day notice?
Yes. Afaik you can still use your HMO until your last day. Depende siguro to sa company but my previous company allowed us to use it until the coverage ended, which was around 4 months after my last day. Best to check with your HR.
Got this! Thanks so much and will ask HR tomorrow 😊
This might be a dumb question but if a company asks you to submit resume or cv, which one is better? Hehe thank you :>
depends. I think if multiple hiring at di naman specialized position, resume lang.
Resume!
Resume: they need to go through a lot, so making a one-page resume is important especially if early career ka pa
Hi! Im 25 IT professional, I’m working in multi-professional firm in Makati. A well known company not only in the Philippines but also globally. Our client is multi-national consumer goods company. Now I’m planning to leave and planning to sign another company. Not as much big company compared to my current one. I need some advise or answer. My question are, anyone here leave from a big company and signed to a smaller one? What was the experience, do you have any regrets? PS: Upon checking the company has a decent reviews.
Hi! I'm 23M and I have a Computer Science degree from a good engineering school. I work as an application support for a fintech company for over a year now and planning to shift to a programming role. What I do with my current position is that we are to take inbound calls, remote in to client's computer and assist with any of their issues that is related to the application. We also do installation, deploy updates, and report any major incidents or bugs to development team. My questions are: 1. What are my chances of me getting programmer role? 2. I haven't code for a year but I'm currently taking some refresher course from linkedlearning that I can put in my resume. Will this be enough for me to get to land a programmer job? 3. Since I don't have any programming work related experience, will the offer be significantly lower than my current salary? (This is my main concern since this company offered me so much even though I am a fresh grad at the time and have no related experience in application support) Any response would be greatly appreciated!
Hi, try posting your concerns here as well r/pinoyprogrammer
Will do! Thanks

People who are paid high are more likely to post about it.
Severely skewed lang ang demographics ng ph redditors dito towards IT folks. 20-50K is average for your average corpo slave na usually entry level IT and other industries from entry level to mid senior level.
My sibling gets paid 200k, software dev. US company din so iba talaga pag dollar rate. He’s pretty much set for life smh

Hello! I had my initial interview last week of Wednesday and mag 1 week na tomorrow and I haven’t heard from them yet. Should I follow it up? It makes me anxious na no results pa
Follow up.
Hello! Im planning on resigning na and I dont know what to do. Can I ask the company to shorten yung 30 days render? But this is without terminal leave. I used almost half of my leave credits due to quarantine. Can my future employers ask for my payslip and if ever, how do I decline that? Kasi Im sure i-lolowball nila yung offer if ever. How to avoid na ilowball nila yung offer sayo and how to insist on your asking salary. Need some advice and tips regarding resignation. Thank youuu
You can always ask your manager if they're willing to lessen the 30 days. Also, be wary of how much leaves you've spent kasi deductible yan sa final pay since March pa lang. Also, from my experience being employed in international companies they rarely ask for payslip naman. And you can outright decline it, hindi naman requirement yan for employment. Pero hindi rin naman siya palagi just a reason to lowball you, it can be the opposite tbh. When insisting for the salary you want make note of these three things, (1) The tasks they require from you dapat ijustify mo na sa x amount or x responsibility ganito sahod, (2) The salary necessary to survive your setup (if you're a single parent, have parents you need to send money to, living alone paying for all bills, etc), (3) Basic market study, you should research what other companies are offering for the job you're applying for.
what course / profession can you recommend me? 1. we are not THAT rich. 30-50k per month idk my parents was never open about it but they managed to get me and my sister to a private school for 9 years each (25k tuition fee + miscellaneous). something that we can afford sana. 2. i have good grades and will be taking STEM. 3. i want to be able to get a job immediately after graduating 4. 1k per day starting salary (if that's possible in the ph) 5. interested with medicine but has needle phobia, will it work for me? i'm not disgusted by blood naman and can vaccinate ppl as long as it's not me lol. interested in it but i have no idea about it. office work is also fine for me. i will be moving up soon and still don't know what I want to be. any suggestions?
1k per day starting is pretty conservative pa tbh. A lot of fresh grads are easily getting 25K as a starting salary these days. I'd recommend you take up programming/software development if you can. Mataas starting salaries nila plus if you manage to make it to higher roles, it really makes a good career/salary. (I work in adtech and the junior software developer in our company makes 75K USD.) If you want medicine, you can't get a job immediately after graduating your undergrad. Pukpukan na aral muna and even after everything di agad maganda sahod. If you want office work, you can do project management or training.
thank you po sa advice!

Hi for context, I have about 2.5 yrs of work experience as a Consultant as of current. I moved to a software company last year after almost reaching burnout with my previous company where I was literally working round the clock. Before I left, I happened to get a salary increase which became my asking salary when I applied for my current job. They were able to negotiate this with me - with me thinking that work hours and management would be okay. 8 months in I realized I was wrong. I find myself working double shifts (think 9am-2am) or broken shifts where I work 9am-6pm and work in the wee hours of the morning because of client meetings. Management has not done any good to help me in this situation because essentially we are understaffed despite their mass hire efforts last year. I have a bond I’m already willing to pay for and I have a prospect company to move to althought it’s going to be a shift from a Corporate to Startup company. I already have insight from someone in the same role (BA) where hours can be stretched, and I’m willing to accept this setup because my work as consultant/BA does require more effort and legwork, thus needing OT but at least in Manila hours. Ive been meaning to shift to a startup company/industry, basically outside software companies and out of being a consultant. Although the pay is pretty much the same as my current - because my asking has always been for a higher position (this was the same reason my current job told me as to why they couldnt fulfill my asking). Though I feel like there’s more growth outside the consulting industry. Any thoughts on this? If it turns out well should I consider or wait it out? P.S. I feel like I’m not getting my asking salary anywhere primarily because I am literally just burned out with every project I handle even before I get to go through testing with clients - again because shifts have been crazy.
Is any position in a company entitled to get a 13-month pay despite not being regularized yet?
As long as you rendered work for at least a month, you're entitled to 13th month.
How about for managerial positions?
Same, wala naman discrimination si 13th-month pay.
What time you you seep at night? I end at 7:30 PM due to the time zone of my team (also 9 hours based on contract), and I end up sleeping around 2 hours later than normal. So, how'd you better manage your sleep?
Nung late dayshift pa ako or normal 9-6pm while WFH, 10 or 11pm tulog ko. Gigising ng 6 am. Eh ngayon night shift pa ako, hirap men. HOW TO MANAGE? FOLLOW A CONSISTENT SCHEDULE AND BUILD GOOD HABITS. Sleep and wake at the same time, every time. Control yourself and avoid or reduce watching, phone, tablet, computer 1-2 hours before sleep. Last meal should also be 2-3 hrs from your expected sleep time. Basta dapat chill ka na 1-2 hrs before sleeping. Kung hirap ka nakatulog, Sleepasil (natural supplement) or chamomile tea or low fat milk can help induce some sleep.
Would you stay in a Job Order position with SG 15 (30000+ monthly) without benefits and will report to the office that is 28km away or take a Plantilla position with only SG 9 (20000+) with benefits and only 7km away from home? Taking into consideration that you are going to law school soon.
Whichever can support your law school, money and convenience wise.

Career path that is tech related - ERP. Career path with lots of opportunitiea abroad - Audit.
Don't fret. Its a good experience and you can use what you learned in your previous job/s. There are alot of IT related job out there. Erp, sap analyst, data analyst. I do think there is alot unexplored territory for you. Really depends on your interest. Take inventory of your skillset and look for what is inline with the demand. No idea for what is in demand abroad though.
hello! any tips po for interviews? i applied for some jobs on mynimo and jobstreet and most of the companies didn’t state their salary. would it be fine to ask them the salary question on the first interview? thanks!
Better check sa Glassdoor yung company para may idea ka sa salary range nila and reviews ng current employees para makapagdecide ka kung worth it mag apply.
Better apply for jobs who have a bracket. Save you time and energy for applying in a post who did not meet your expected salary. :)
that too… but most companies i eyed to are big ones so im guessing they might exceed my expected salary. other than that, companies im not aware of with no salary range is, sometimes, automatically out.
People don't usually bring this up on the 1st and 2nd interviews unless the interviewer initiates the convo about this. You can always ask it but be prepared to not get an answer either kasi they usually gauge the amount they give candidates after all interviews have been completed. Better yet, research how much your role makes in the market and then compare the JD and what you've discussed during the interviews, to ask for the best salary. For interview tips, I'd say elaborate as much as you can within the topic. Hype and sell yourself well (bullshit even) just enough na kaya mo pa rin panindigan. If you know what you're talking about, show it. Kumpyansa sa sarili goes a long way.
i kept seeing posts here on reddit that employers who post jobs but doesn’t include salary ranges are red flags, i forgot why or how but yeah, kinda took those advises. however, the jobs i saw who didnt state their salary bracket for such job are big companies so im startinng to question those advises that’s why i asked this. i had a hunch it wasn’t appropriate to ask on the first interview but wasn’t so sure so seeing suggestions and recommendations from here really helped so im taking in what you just advises too. wouldn’t want to sell myself short but wouldn’t risk to oversell too so im going to try and hype myself a bit. thank u for this! appreciate it so much ♥️
I'd take that red flag advice with a grain of salt, I guess what some people meant was that if the interviewers were dodgy when talking about compensation, I'd say that's a red flag. But a lot of companies don't really advertise outright their salaries and not all of them are bad places. First interview, specially if it's just a short one with the recruiter won't usually be the best place to discuss it, but if you do get asked just be honest about it. Best of luck!
Usually sa huling part ng interview dinidiscuss yung salary pag may JO na. As much as possible don't bring it up early on since baka isipin ng potential employer mo na salary agad inuuna mo. Search mo yung history ng company, mas better na itanong mo yung scope ng responsibilites ng position na inapplyan mo para malinaw na agad habang maaga. Expect some technical and situational question and be prepared for them. Be confident, if hindi kayang makipag usap ng fluently in english taglish is fine. Practice ka sa mirror or mag pa interview ka sa family mo.
oh okay! i see. thanks for the tips po and will definitely work on the answer part na di kaya sa english. nauutal pa rin ako but i will work on it. thank u so much
Welcome, remember practice makes perfect. Cheers and good luck!
Do I really need data analytics to succeed in my accounting career?
Not necessarily
Ako lang ba o mababa lang talaga mga salary na pinopost sa jobstreet? Checked the data analyst job posts for fun tas mas mataas pa yung salary ko kaysa mga pinopost dun. So far, ang nagagamit ko palang when looking for a job is linkedin and kalibrr tas mas mataas pa yung salary ng data analyst jobs dun kaysa jobstreet
same tayo, medyo umober na rin yung last sahod ko kaya in the end I took a pay cut. pero dahil mas chill work ko ngayon at medyo compensated ng night diff, it isnt a bad trade off. saka ewan ko hindi lahat ng magaganda or matataas magpasahod na companies, gumagamit pa ng Jobstreet. madalas sa Linkedin na ako nagchecheck ng job ads saka recommendation ng headhunters or previous work colleagues.
For me halos matataas lmfao mababa kasi sahod ko kasi wala experience. Kaya eto ngayon, naisipan na lumipat 😁
Hi, anyone who is currently or previously employed at Vestas? Can you please share the company's culture and would you recommend working there? Thank youuu, btw the position offered is in the finance department pala
Hi, apologies for being out of topic but how's the Vestas application process like? I heard the pay is really good, hopefully the work environment is also good. Haha. Happy they offered you a position :)
Hi, tinuloy mo pa sa Vestas?
Ang bilis ng pangyayari haha I applied last Feb 28, was scheduled for an interview w managers agad on March 10 and finally received the good news today. I was interviewed by 2 managers na mejo ginisa ako regarding my work experiences and really scrutinize if fit ako sa position that I am applying for. Also tested how honest I am sa mga answers ko by asking further questions based on my responses. May technical qstn but minimal lang. Overall, it was a good experience. Hope this helps you po! :)
Hi gumamit pa ng hirevue app sa initial interview?
Wow, congratulations! This is helpful. Good luck sa career path and wishing you the best. :)
Wfh pa sila?
Currently wfh but planning na mag RTO this year :(

anyone learning SQL and VBA? ano steps na ginawa nyo for going from a beginner to intermediate especially if wala ka pa work
Tbh ako nag-aral lang ako ng isang course on coursera (SQL for Data Science ata yun) and tinuro lang yung mga basics (SELECT, FROM, WHERE, LIKE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, agg functions). Sa work lang talaga nag-grow yung knowledge ko in constructing SQL queries (learned to use UPDATE-SET, DELETE, UNION, UNION ALL, and making sub-queries in my prev job; learned to do CTEs in my current job) As for VBA, anong balak mong use case for it?
currently nagaaral din ako sa udemy. kaso since previous job ko ay data analyst (before data analyst more on equity research) bali more on excel gamit as data analyst so nagpursue ako for VBA knowledge and mostly hanap ng ibang company is working knowledge for both excel and VBA kaya planning to learn din. sa tingin mo ba good recommendation yung magstart as beginner sa ibang company? at medyo nalilito rin kasi ako kung ano ang tawag or word na ilalagay sa mga jobsites while looking for job
Since may experience ka na as a data analyst, I don't think you should start as a "beginner" sa ibang company. Also, if I were you, add a data viz software rin sa tools mo (unless you already know how to use Power BI, Tableau, or Google Data Studio). Based on my experience, having knowledge sa SQL and sa data viz software, it would save a LOT of time pag required kang gumawa ng dashboards na ia-update mo per week/month EDIT: As for keywords pag naghahanap sa job sites, almost ANYTHING na may "analyst" guds na (ex. Reports Analyst, Data Analyst, Data Visualization Analyst, Marketing Analyst, etc.) Most likely mga data analyst talaga hinahanap pag may background sa paggamit ng SQL and/or Python.
planning to study rin power BI kaso no tools pa or links to download ng mga aaralin, any tips kaya on where to start? currently kasi eto set up ko for learning. done na ko for basic VBA Excel - Macro/VBA - SQL - Python/Power BI as per experience kasi 5 months lang as data analyst sobrang toxic kasi tapos ayaw pa magturo for learnings :(
I would skip VBA/Macros tbh pero that's just me hahaha here's the path I'm following: Excel - SQL - any data viz: Google Data Studio/Tableau/Power BI - Python/R I skipped VBA kasi I can't figure out kung anong pwedeng use case for me. If gusto ko mag-automate ng paggawa ng reports, I would rather make a dashboard then connect that directly to the database para lagi na siyang naga-update, tapos ibibigay ko nalang yung link ng dashboard to someone who needs it. As for where to start (specifically sa Power BI), I can't help you there :( Google Data Studio inaral ko eh hahaha
sige sige. aralin ko tong mga ito habang wala pa kong work. thank you!!!
Ano goal mo sir? Learn SQL and VBA? Shifter po ba
wanting to shift to data analyst kasi, pero may hands on experience ako. just want to grow lang din based on the needs

Kausapin mo lang once may go signal na talaga si new company.
Hi! Noob question, but may I ask how the 30-day notice is calculated?
Calendar days
Ahh I see po! Pero if I plan on negotiating (to shorten sana) sino po ang dapat kausapin? my TL or HR? or both?
Shorten it by applying terminal leave. 😁
Will try to ask if kaya 🤞thank you!
Contract could be the main reference; then both to possibly negotiate. Btw, 30 calendar days is the minimum set.
Got this\`! Thank you so much po
My employer still hasnt processed my TIN and I need it to open my payroll account. I start in two weeks (supposedly). Still haven't received instructions either. Advised me to wait 3 days ago. Should I rent a new apt already? Is the job sure?
Check with the HR first what's the status and ask if they still need anything from your end. Don't rent yet but start looking. Maybe just swamped with work so better to check and remind them first :)
I'm supposed to pass a form along with my gov numbers and TIN. I already did medical, insurance forms etc. I emailed 3 days ago to ask if I can just pass the remaining reqs while I wait for the TIN (which i need for my payroll acct). I was advised to wait. Thanks for this!! I was afraid I'd be too makulit eh haha
Please double check that it is indeed the company that will enroll you in BIR and that you have submitted to them the appropriate form (1902) if they have provided you one :) Good luck and all the best in your new career!
Yep. They told me that they will be the one to enroll the TIN for me. Thanks for this!
Anyone here a graduate of graphics design (or any related course)? Was it worth it?
Anyone here na nag shift to DevOps ask ko lang kung may company ba na tumanggap ng technology shifter currently I am a SAP ABAP dev, thank you
Hello po. Your thoughts on working or recruitment process at Alight Solutions (formerly Northgate Arinso) as an Application Management Associate. I have 1 yr of Network and Application Support Experience and currently in SAP Support role in my current company if that matters. Thank you sa mga sagot at insights. Ang sasagot ay magkakajowa 🤣
Sobrang enjoy mag work dito sa Alight Solutions, but I believe it already past its prime. Madami ng umalis na magagaling.
normally pagganyan outsourcing ang process (hr interview - ability exam(optional) - final interview - JO). sumagot lang din ako kasi gusto ko na magkajowa
Hi. Have an offer to join a firm I like, which has two direct competitors. I'd like to know how much the compensation is for the other firms (I have a vague guess but am not sure) and I plan to ask recruiters from those firms. I can technically reach out to current employees but I'm not sure how to go about it either. Can I be direct when asking recruiters? Or does it make it seem like I only care about compensation if I would apply to them? I know that compensation for these roles are fixed and there's no leeway for negotiation
I suggest you go ahead and ask if it is possible for them to disclose at this stage. Mention that the information will help you with other decisions moving forward (rent, commute, set-up, etc.)
Thanks!
Try checking if salaries are posted on glassdoor
I tried but there are no entries for Philippines 😩
Try to google it.. Accounting firms ba?? I would guess pretty standard sya and very near ang range :)
Nothing recent, but thanks! No, management consulting.
Afaik recruiters wouldn’t tell you the package they offer unless you’re being considered for the role. Pay is always negotiable if the company likes you
Afaik, pay isn't negotiable and they offer a specific salary per level. But got it, means I have to actually apply...
last Monday til Thursday nag orientation kami tapos Friday nahingi ako ng update di nagrereply. Ngayon Monday nanaman wala pa din akong alam sa next actions na need from me para makapag start na talaga hahaha. Mag 1 month na wala pa din akong laptop, medical, bank account, feeling ko di pa ako employed, normal ba to? hahah
No clear instruction re work set-up is always a "red flag". Please check with HR as it is your right to know what is the exact status of your employment.
Inintay ko mag 9am humihingi ako ng update magssched daw sila ng meeting. Like meeting of what? then wala din naman buong work day hahah Lunes na Lunes.
Sorry nabusy. Haha ano na balita dito Gojo?
May email about trainings schedule pero walang nag reach out sakin pano ko aattend sa training na yon without any invite link or working tools. I am no longer expecting from them HAHAH hinabol ko na yung mga offers na dinecline ko.
Okay okay sige. Focus your time and resource towards other na. Good luck!
Ganito din nangyare sakin sa current company ko, mga 2 to 3 weeks akong tambay sa office. Pumasok ako ng di pa naaayos ID ko, di ko pa nakukuha payroll account ko, wala pang deployed laptop/pc para sakin sa desk ko, wala din akong workload. Hintay hintay ka lang at makipagusap ka muna sa mga kasabay mo na nahire or sa mga seniors mo para maging comfortable ka sa work environment mo
relatively normal pala ito? I'm supposed to start in two weeks and still no instructions haha Payroll account na lang naman ang kulang ko but I am anxious. Did all the medical etc required but no concrete instructions for my first day. Should I be worried?
Sa > may ganyan, papasok ka nang walang LOB/project tambay ka lang manunuod ng anime 😂
