@shrinx29 boss nagtrainee ka ba muna bago ka napermanent? Or inofferan ka immediately ng perm job?

@wanderer di na ako nag trainee pero sa phone interview ng HR, cadet or trainee ang pinag usapan namin kase un naman in_applyan ko. Sched nya ako ng face to face interview dun sa manager nila. Di din naman din agad nag offer un manager. Pero same day tumawag un HR nakapasa daw ako sa interview at papadalhan ako ng offer. Kinabukasan nag email saka ko lang nalaman na permanent job un offer nila. After ng napakaraming rejections, finally may tumanggap din.

Took me a month to get a job related to my skills (System Admin), nung una we thought walang opening kasi November kame nag BM, luckily I got calls after 3 weeks.
Seek and Linkedin all day, changing my CV/Cover Letter per job to fit the description and lots and lots of rejection letters lol.

Hello! Anong industry po pinakamadali makahanap ng work? Will be moving to Oz this June. I’m kind of worried kase yung bf ko nasa Aus na for 4 months wala pa rin mahanap na work. Business/ Commercial Analyst sya. Kahit Admin Assistant jobs di sya natanggap even if my experience sya 7 years and studying now to get Masters. Please help, any info is much appreciated.

Hello everyone

julypearl · June 2018

Ano po diskarte pag di po in demand yung field of work? Commercial analyst kasi previous work ng fiance ko. 7 years work experience sa business admin. Inaaplyan nga nya is Admin Assistant wala pa rin kahit isang call. 4 months na. Okay naman ang CV at cover letter nirerelate sa skills ng job. If example ba, barista kelangan din me work experience sa hospitality? Pa-share naman po ng experience if ano diskarte nyo. TIA.

Captain_A · June 2018

Finally landed a job after 9 months! Just a plain housewife during those times. I did plan to do casual jobs but hubby encourage me to wait a little more. He knows there is something for me out there. Recently, got my first job related to my career. I was lucky enough that i was hired because of my skills and experience. Of course, i did also received a lot of rejection letters and only 2 face to face interview!!! The 2nd one was a hit! It was just the right timing and the right opportunity....for those who are still looking, just don't give up and keep praying.

Megger · June 2018

@m_chie1609 , si hubby mo gaano katagal siya nakahanap? Thanks for sharing here.

m_chie1609 · June 2018

@Megger 3 months. We're both from IT but I'm into process quality. God is really good tlaga. Konting tiis lang. Now we're both full-time permanent role.

julypearl · June 2018

@Captain_A thank you! Student visa lang kase kame dalawa. Part time job sana kahit ano na, pero hirap pa din. Nakakadiscourage nga talaga.

Captain_A · June 2018

@julypearl know someone under student visa din sila, wife studies and husband works in a factory ata. if both of you can drive, more chances for jobs, PH license gmit nila..

iamvee · June 2018

Hi guys, question lang for those who are now working in AU... after 3 rounds of interview and email exchanges, I've been asked to provide my referees contact details kasi gusto daw nila makausap... what do you think yung likelihood of getting the offer if andun na sa stage na reference check?
