    @ruelcortez_BH
    Hi mga kabayan, nagsend na po ako ng sample CV and cover letter dun sa mag nagreqyest to PM, email and on this thread....Paceyncya been busy po in my new job :-). Blessing din po at may permanent job na ako and related to my field. Before I left dun sa previous job ko, nirefer ko na lang yung isang kabayan natin at yun, blessing din din at nakapasok and extended yung contract.

    Good luck sa lahat, if we have landed a job and another company offers another job lets refer our friends na looking for work, this will mean a lot, and as for the recruiters side kapag nagrefer ka priority nila yun kasi kakilala mo...tested it twice already. God Bless..
    congrats. you're so blessed having permanent job na & in ur field. you're a blessing too sa ni-refer mo na-hire din. which state nga pala?
    Thanks sir, dito kami Adelaide, South Australia

    On d way na po sa mga mailbox yung mga nagrequest, sorry sa delay. Also add ko lang, po though may mga experience tayo na di related its ideal na iadd natin to kc most of the time magask ang mga recruiters or employers about time gap.

    Good luck again to everyone and God Bless!
