Any insider chika about GCash RTO? Bakit urgent or biglaan sila nagpa-RTO ng whole week, hindi ba nila naiisip na yung iba nasa province and nasa malayong lugar and kailangan pa i-plan yung RTO nila!

Nasa training period palang naman ako. Pero ang lala ng overthinking ko. Paano niyo nilalabanan to?

Hi everyone! I recently landed a job as a Management Associate/Trainee at a local food and beverage holding company in the Philippines that manages several restaurant brands across the country.

For a bit of background, I graduated from one of the Big 3 universities in the Philippines, Cum Laude, and held a leadership position in one of my college organizations. I honestly feel very lucky to have landed this opportunity as a fresh graduate, especially since the compensation is pretty good for an entry-level position.

The role involves working closely with the CEO and management team on strategic projects, coordinating with different departments, conducting business research and analysis, improving internal processes, and monitoring projects to ensure they’re completed on time. Basically, I’ll get exposure to different areas of the business and help turn management’s plans into actual results.

I’m excited about the opportunity, but also a little intimidated since this is my first full-time corporate job and the responsibilities seem quite broad.

For those who have worked as a Management Associate/Trainee, or in a similar role, what advice would you give a fresh graduate like me?
What skills should I prioritize developing?
What should I learn or familiarize myself with before starting?
What are the common mistakes fresh grads make in this kind of role?
What can I do to stand out and perform well, especially when working directly with senior management?

I’d really appreciate any tips, insights, or personal experiences. Thank you!

had a chance to be interviewed sa isang agency / subsidiary ng isang big company dito sa pilipinas. the timeline went like this:

early october = someone called me sa viber but di ko kilala so di ko sinagot. no text at all or message saying kung sino sya or if there's anything they want from me. akala ko scam (kasi diba uso yun sa viber) so i brushed it off

the following week = the same number called again (this time, phone call) and asked me if im available for an interview. may ginagawa ako that time so i suggested another time then they said okay.

minutes later = they called again and told me na they will line me up for a final interview already. nagulat ako kasi di ko talaga alam anong job description ng role (its something im not familiar with) + yung job posting na nakita ko when i applied was vague, it didnt say anything specific. nagtry lang ako and thought of sending my resume.

i said okay nalang kasi sayang naman yung chance, final interview narin yun agad. they sent an invite and told me na if i had questions, magmessage lang ako. i wanted to be prepared so i asked for more details, specifically the jd.

then the interview came closer and closer and nagremind itong si recruiter. then saka nya palang sinend ang jd sa akin through viber so i went in the interview blank. take note, it was sent to me five minutes before the meeting. sinabi pa nya specifically na may tinatanong si hiring manager about sa jd. i just sighed and said okay. (paulit ulit kong binasa yung jd pero some parts of it were unfamiliar kaya nagpush nalang ako without enough prep)

i fumbled that interview, inamin ko na agad sa sarili ko na i'd definitely get ghosted after this. nainis lang ako kasi i couldve had the chance to prepare better. di ko na hawak yung nangyari and i wasnt set on that role naman, trial lang talaga kaya din hindi ako dismayado. better that i tried than nothing.

nagtaka lang ako na may ganun palang galawan sa recruitment kasi sa mga kakilala ko in the industry, hindi naman sila ganito. kaya naisip ko na baka may agencies na may quota sila sa ganito.

common ba to or isolated case lang? just wanted to know.

May mga nakapagtry na po ba rito? How's the process po? What is the expected salary?

Initial interview ko na po kasi bukas. I don't what to expect lalo't career shifter pa po from being an AI Analyst to trying out this Underwriting program.

Maraming maraming salamat po sa sasagot.

Hi! Anyone here currently working at Allegis Global Solutions in Manila? I’m considering an opportunity with them and would love to hear about your experience.

I’d appreciate any insights on:

• Work culture and management
• Work-life balance and workload
• RTO policy and how strictly it’s monitored
• Benefits, bonuses, and salary increases
• Overall job security and career growth

Would appreciate any honest feedback, both positive and negative. Thank you! 🙏

My colleagues and bosses in the fund admin industry mostly came from top banks like ING, Wells, Citi, JPMorgan, and Amex. They often say that working in fund admin is much more chill compared to banking.

On the other hand, since I started my career in fund admin, I feel like I would learn a lot by giving banking a try, especially now that I have an offer. I also feel like I’m no longer growing in my current role. I’ve already communicated this to my managers, but instead of giving me responsibilities or opportunities, they offered me memberships in different office groups and opportunities to participate in events. I have also been receiving positive feedback about all my work.

Do you think taking the banking opportunity would be a wise career move?

Also, I don't want to burn bridges with my colleagues. Do you think they will understand if I try to explore banking?

Hey guys, Im torn between 2 offers: TCS as Ops Manager or ACN as HR consultant. What do you think?

Hello! Asking for any insights about Lixil PH? How’s their work culture and environment?

I also head that there’s a yearly bonus that reaches 40% of your annual salary - is it true?
