    Reply to @Metaform: Hahaha. Pasensya na natawa ko sa tanong mo kasi yun din lage tanong ng pag iniinterview ako.. "How do you find the IT job market?" naalala ko lang. :) . lage ko sinasagot.. "It's good." Pero sa totoo lang.. mahirap. hehehe. dami kakompitensya.. kasi most of the time sasabihin sayo.. "We'll contact you if ever you'll progress to the next stage since we still have schedule for other candidates." Ayun lang. :) Tapos hindi pwedeng walang Indian sa mga company inaplyan ko.. halimbawa pinapunta ko dun for interview, lage merong Indian dun. :) Madami openings sa inaaplayan ko na position.. In a day mga 3 to 5 company na aaplyan ko. Pero yun nga madami din kalaban. :)

    Reply to @LokiJr: Yung sa package ko minimum ang super. so mga 9% yun if i'm not mistaken. Pwede ka mamili kung saan mo gusto maghulog. kung anong superannuation company. unlike kasi sa philippines diba pag private company ka nagwowork automatic SSS, pag government ka naman e GSIS naman. dito kasi madami private companies na superannuation.
    Thanks nga pala. :)
