Mga recruiters pa lang so far nagiinterview skn, nainterview na ako dati kaso raw masyado raw akong senior... Need ko pa cguro itailor fit pa lalo resume ko. Akala nila ata masyado nang high level lagi ginagawa ko. Minsan ako yung tumatawag sa knila to show interest. Sabi nung isang recruiter na nakausap ko, careful din daw sa pagapply kase bka raw same job/company lang tapos nagapply ka sa iba ibang recruitment agencies, bad image daw un. hehe
Anyway, napansin ko tlga gusto nila andon ka na even before ka nila inconsider. Dami kalaban na qualified din and syempre preferred nila pag andon ka na agad. Yung isang recruiter na nakausap ko, sabi nya marami daw kaseng risks pag daw overseas pa yung kinuha nila.. lagi nila kase ako tinatanong kelan daw ba dating ko sa Sydney and if may ticket na ako. Sigurista sila, sigurista din ako. haha joke lang Hindi pa kase ako nagrresign dito.. hehhe

Sobrang bait nya kase binigyan pa nya ako ng tips during the interview. Nagkaphone interview ako last January. Parang panel nga yun, 2 Australians, 1 Indian pero ung Indian ung primary interviewer since technical yung role. Yun nga lang di ako nakuha kase masyado na raw ako senior. Akala cguro nila sobrang high-level na yung role ko na tipong wala na akong ginagawang leg work. heheh Which is sobrang hindi ganon sa current role ko. hehehe
Anyway, hindi siguro para sakin ang job na yun, at least I got the experience of selling my capabilities. And also, sobrang bait ng recruiter, sinabi pa nya skn sino pde ko icontact since magbabakasyon sya sa UK. Nag-encourage pa sya kase ang ganda raw ng pagkakagawa ng resume ko, need lang nya iedit daw dahil masyado raw intimidating ung title ng role ko.
@risa_c PM ko sayo details nung recruiter/agency nya.. hehhehe Sa SAP ka rin ba? Sinabi nya rin sakin na normally daw tlga need ng local experience pero kaya daw nya ako hanapan ng mas ok na role and mas high paying job after 6 mos-1 year. Maganda tlga to build relationship with the recruiters. :-) Tska sa linkedin ko sya nakita. Nung nakita ko na may pinost sya, nagsend ako email agad sa knya kahit gabi na yun sa Sydney. Kinabukasan tinawagan na nya ako. hehehhe
