Anlala neto. Mas mauuna pa ata akong mabaliw kakaisip kung kailan ako magkakatrabaho kaysa makahanap talaga ng trabaho hayp na yan. Grabe ang Job Market ngayon sobrang pressure nako.
Super pressure and stressed na kasi ako. Almost 2 months na akong naghahanap ng work. Halos lahat na ng apps and social media platforms na pwede pag-applyan, tinatry ko na, pero until now wala pa rin akong work.
I always attend job interviews naman and I really try my best every time. Feeling ko okay naman yung mga interviews ko, pero hindi ko talaga alam kung bakit hanggang ngayon wala pa rin. Minsan nao-ghost na lang din after the interview. 😭
Fresh graduate po ako and currently looking for HR Staff/Assistant, Admin Staff, Office Staff, or any related office position around Valenzuela.
Mas pressured lang talaga ako ngayon kasi gusto ko na rin makatulong sa family ko, especially sa father ko na may CKD Stage 5 and kailangan ng continuous treatment and expenses. Kaya talagang gusto ko na makahanap ng work as soon as possible.
If may alam po kayong hiring or companies na currently accepting applicants, please let me know. Kahit saan po around Valenzuela, malaking help na po. 🙏
Thank you so much po sa kahit anong leads or referrals. 🥹❤️
Hi everyone. Fresh graduate here, and honestly, sobrang pressured na ako sa buhay ko ngayon. To the point na gabi-gabi ko na siyang iniiyakan, pero hindi alam ng family ko kung gaano ako ka-anxious dahil dun.
My biggest goal right now is to finally get a job and start earning, especially because gusto ko na talagang makatulong financially sa family ko. My father is a dialysis patient, kaya gustong-gusto ko na magkaroon ng sariling income para kahit papaano makatulong ako sa kanila.
Pero ngayon, I'm questioning myself kung tama ba yung naging decision ko about sa first work ko na sana kaso diko tinuloy dahil sa pagiging OA ko?
Context:
Last Tuesday, nag-apply ako sa isang BPO company. This is my first time applying sa work talaga. Thankfully, nakapasa naman ako sa lahat ng recruitment process. After the final interview, di talaga kami pinaalis sa hiring hub hanggang dipa dumadating yung Email saakin about JO kasi kaya pala di kami pinapaalis is para bago kami lumabas iaccept na muna namin agad yung JO. Nangyari is after ko ipakita yung Gmail na dumating na yung JO sakin, sila pa mismo nag accept nung JO sa phone ko huhuhu, pero alam naman nila na iaccept ko kasi nag wait din ako dun ng medyo matagal for JO e.
Everything happened so fast. Parang after nilang sabihin na hired kami, kailangan agad mag-decide and iaccept offer o JO nila. Wala na talaga akong enough time para pag-isipan kung kaya ko ba talaga yung work setup. Kasi nangyari is kahapon ako nag apply kinabukasan training na agad
So During my first day training which is kahapon, sobrang culture shock ko. Doon ko nalaman na weekly shifting pala yung schedule. For example, possible na one week 3 AM-11 AM yung sched, then the next week naman 11 PM–8 AM na yung sched ko. Then yung two days off naman per week is fix lang sya every weekdays and possible rin na hindi magkasunod yung 2 days na yun. Also everyday pag pang gabi ako possible gastos ko sa pamasahe ko is around 200-250 pesos which is nalalakihan ako.
At first, sinabi ko sa sarili ko, “Sige, try ko muna. Baka kaya ko naman.”
One of the reasons why I really wanted to try it was because mataas talaga yung salary compared sa mga degree-related jobs na nakikita ko. As a fresh graduate, malaking bagay talaga yung salary for me. Pero nung first day of training na, doon ko na-realize na baka hindi ko talaga kaya yung voice account and yung shifting schedule. I started worrying about my body clock, puyat, health, pamasahe, and kung kakayanin ko ba siya long-term.
I talked to my family about it, and sinabi nila na okay lang daw if I don't continue if I really feel like hindi ko kaya. They told me na hindi ko kailangan pilitin yung sarili ko.
So eventually, I decided to let go of the job ngayong araw which is dapat 2nd day training ko na. Pero honestly, hanggang ngayon, hindi pa rin ako okay. Parang buong araw ako umiiyak kasi tama ba tong ginawa ko and makakahanap pa ako ng bago
Also tatlo kasi talaga kami na magkakaibigan na sabay nag-apply. Lahat kami natanggap, yung dalawang friend ko nag-continue sila today for the 2nd day training. And sabi nila okay naman sila and kaya naman nila yung BPO setup kasi gusto talaga nila yung malaking sahod. Pero now nagagalit o nagtatampo siguro sila sakin like sinasabihan nila ako na ako daw may gusto mag BPO tapos iiwanan ko sila sa ere, reply pa ng isang friend ko sa chat is pang sarcastic na sinabi nya na halos parehas naman daw kami ng pamasahe anong inaano ko sakanila na malaki na gagastos ko sa pamasahe e halos same lang naman daw kami, sinasabi din nila na baka sa una palang naman daw wag daw ako mag worry masyado, itry ko muna for a month then pag diko kaya umalis nako. Which is ayuko naman, kasi feeling ko mas okay ilaan nalang sa mas gusto kung work yung month na yun kaysa mag stay ako sa diko gusto.
And now, sobrang pressure ko kasi parang napapaisip ako, “Bakit sila kaya nila, ako hindi?”
I'm scared na baka nagkamali ako.
Natatakot ako na baka mahirapan na akong makahanap ulit ng work, lalo na sabi ng friend ko baka mas konti na raw hiring during the “ber months.”
I keep asking myself:
“What if I should've stayed?”
“What if I just needed more time to adjust?”
“What if sayang yung opportunity?”
“What if wala na akong makuhang trabaho?”
I tried to convince myself na baka first-day anxiety lang ito and baka masanay din ako eventually. Ayoko rin naman basta-basta sumuko kasi alam kong magandang opportunity siya and magkakasama pa kami sa training ng friend ko. Pero tingin ko natatakot din kasi talaga ako.
I really want to work. I really want to earn money. I really want to help my family. Pero at the same time, I feel like I chose myself because I knew deep inside na hindi ko talaga nakikita yung sarili ko na kakayanin yung setup.So I want to ask everyone here, especially those who are working in BPO or have experienced something similar:
Did I make the right decision by choosing myself?
Was it okay to let go of a good-paying job because I felt like the work setup wasn't right for me? Or did I just give up too soon? I'd really appreciate honest advice. Please don't sugarcoat it. I'm genuinely scared right now and I just want to know if I made a reasonable decision or if I should've tried harder.
Ps. For transparency there JO salary is 17.5k basic salary and 2500 allowance total of 20k then after 60 days +1k add for rice subsidy.
Hello po! I’m a first-time BPO employee and a fresh graduate. I just started my training today for a voice account at Teleperformance. However, I was transferred to another account, and it says “Online and Login Solution.” On our Viber group, the account is labeled “OLS and WO.”
May I ask if this account is non-voice, or is it still a voice account with chat support? I’m asking because, after experiencing voice training on my first day, I’m starting to feel that I might not be able to handle voice calls.
I would really appreciate any information or advice from those who have experience with this account at Teleperformance. Thank you so much po! 🙏
Hello po can I ask po kung anong sasakyan sasakyan namin ging VGC, Valenzuela to SM fairview?
Hi everyone! This is my first time applying for a job as a fresh graduate. I’m planning to apply for entry-level BPO and HR positions here in the Philippines.
I’d really appreciate it if you could take a look at my resume and give me some feedback or suggestions on what I can improve. Any advice from recruiters, hiring managers, or people working in BPO/HR would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much! 😊
Ps. All info here is change
Can you guys please check my resume and give me some feedback or suggestions on what I can improve? I’d really appreciate any advice, especially from those who have experience hiring or working in BPO/HR. 🥹
Thank you so much in advance! 💗
Hi everyone! I’m a fresh graduate and currently looking for my first job in the BPO industry. I’ve already tried applying to several companies, pero nahihirapan talaga akong makapasok. 😭
Can you guys recommend a BPO company na beginner-friendly and medyo madaling applyan, especially for someone with no BPO experience? Any tips on companies, application process, or interview tips would also be greatly appreciated.
I really need to find a job as soon as possible to help support my family. My father is a dialysis patient, and currently, my sister is the only one providing for us. Unfortunately, hindi rin ganoon kalaki ang salary niya, kaya gusto ko talagang makatulong.
Thank you so much sa mga makakapag-share ng recommendations or advice. It would really mean a lot to me. 🙏
5 years na kami ng boyfriend ko, pero nahuli ko siya before na nanonood ng mga babae sa TikTok mga liberated at pa-sexy na girls. Syempre nag-away kami kasi hindi naman siya random videos lang, sabi nya once lang daw lumabas sa FYP nya yung ganun then na pa search sya, kaya ilang beses na naulit. Pero natigil nya din daw kasi nakokonsensya sya. Ending, naging okay kami and dinelete niya na lang yung TikTok niya.
Then the following month, nahuli ko naman siyang nag-i-stalk ng mga babae na lumalabas sa suggested friends niya sa Instagram. Usually mga random girls lang na hindi naman artista or influencer, pero mostly mga nagpo-post ng revealing pictures, yung tipong labas-dede yung profile HAHAHAHA. Tinanong ko siya directly kung intentional ba talaga yung ginagawa niya, and umamin naman siya na oo. Kapag may nakikita siyang girl sa suggested friends niya, sunod-sunod niya raw ini-stalk yung profile.
That time, dahil nga tanga ako , naging okay naman kami. Ang ginawa niya na lang, dinelete niya lahat ng social media niya. Messenger, YouTube, Reddit, and games na lang yung tinira niya. For around 6 months, okay naman kami, pero eventually ako na mismo yung nagko-complain na mag-download na ulit siya ng social media. Sinabi ko sa kanya na nahihirapan ako na wala siyang social media kasi hindi na ako makapag-send sa kanya ng mga random stuff, memes, posts, etc. At the same time, aminado rin ako na mas naaalala ko yung mga ginawa niya dati every time naiisip ko na wala siyang social media dahil sa kababoyang ginawa niya.
Guys, tbh, super big deal talaga sa akin yung ginawa niya. Before pa man nangyari lahat ng ito, lagi ko na siyang kinakausap about sa insecurities ko sa weight ko kasi nag-gain talaga ako. Malalang stress talaga yung mga sinasabi at nararamdaman ko about myself, kaya masakit para sa akin na habang vulnerable ako sa ganung bagay, nagagawa pa rin niya yung ganun. Hayop talaga siya.
Then one time, may special day kami. Nakita niya akong nag-e-edit ng mga pictures ko, pero wala naman akong sinabi na magpo-post ako. Nung nagkita kami, may ipapakita ko na sana yung post ko sa IG kasi feeling ko di nya pa naman nakita kasi wala nga syang soc med, pero bigla niyang sinabi na nakita niya raw yung post ko sa Instagram.
Nag-post kasi ako that time ng solo picture ko and picture naming dalawa sa IG. Hindi ko naman sinabi sa kanya na magpo-post ako kasi gusto ko sana siyang sorpresahin at ipakita sa kanya personally pag magkasama na kami. First time ko rin kasi siyang i-post sa social media that time. Na sstory ko sya pero yung post first time ever talaga.
So sabi ko, “Paano mo nakita? Wala ka namang social media?”
Sabi niya, chine-check niya lang daw bigla sa phone ng kapatid niya kasi nahulaan niya raw na baka mag-post ako. Kasi nakita nya ako nag eedit ganyan Kaya chineck niya yung IG and nakita niyang nag-post nga ako.
Doon ako nainis kasi paano niya naman nahulaan na magpo-post ako kung hindi ko naman sinabi sa kanya? Especially since hindi naman ako usually nagpo-post ng picture namin together. Kaya sinabi ko sa kanya na huwag siyang magsinungaling kasi ilang beses ko na siyang sinasabihan na mag-download ulit ng social media dahil nahihirapan ako na wala siyang account. Tapos malalaman ko na gumagamit pala siya ng ibang phone para mag-check ng Instagram.
Sabi naman niya, once lang daw niya ginawa yun kasi naalala niya lang na baka mag-post ako. And technically, Instagram naman talaga ng kapatid niya yung ginamit niya para mag-check.
So dahil di ako naniniwala sakanya yan yung convo namin, grabe no parang walang empathy kasi feeling nya siguro maniniwala lang ako ng paulit ulit sakanya.
Guys, help me decide what I can give my boyfriend as a graduation gift. My budget is only ₱800, and gusto ko sana siyang bigyan ng something meaningful kahit limited lang budget ko.

Honestly, wala pa talaga akong maisip HAHAHAHA. 😭
Any gift suggestions under ₱800? Something useful, thoughtful, or memorable sana. 🥹💗

Hello guys! I hope you can help me. I'm looking for a graduation dress, but I'm so tired of looking online because they don't fit me properly. So now I'm going to look for one at SM North EDSA. Can you please recommend a good store in SM North that usually has dresses that fit midsize girls?
Pagod na pagod na ako maghanap huhu. Help me please. 🥹
Hello everyone, can you give me some advice on how I can improve my English in just two weeks? I'm looking for the most effective ways to improve in a short period of time so I can speak English more fluently.
I'm a fresh college graduate and I'm currently looking for a job. I really want to apply to a US-based company, such as a BPO or a VA company, because I need a stable income as soon as possible.
My biggest concern right now is that I'm not very confident in speaking English. During interviews, I often experience mental blocks. I become so nervous that I start shaking, and I suddenly don't know what to say, even though I know the answer.
I'm under a lot of pressure because I really need to find a job as soon as possible. I want to help my family, but lately I've been so stressed that I can barely sleep because I'm constantly thinking about what will happen the next day. My father is currently fighting chronic kidney disease (CKD) and undergoes dialysis three times a week. That's why I'm doing everything I can to get a job and help with our family's expenses, especially my father's treatment.
Because of this, I really want to work in the BPO or VA industry because I believe it offers better earning potential than the career path related to my degree. However, my biggest challenge is my spoken English. Deep down, I know I'm capable and that I have the skills. The problem is that as soon as the interview starts, I get extremely nervous, and my mind goes completely blank.
I want to start applying now, but I feel like I'm still not ready. I'm worried that I'll just waste my time, money, and opportunities if I fail because of my English communication skills.
For now, I'm willing to focus on improving my English. I'll continue practicing and preparing throughout July, and by the first week of August, no matter what happens, I'll start applying.
I think most of my difficulties with speaking English come from my limited vocabulary, storytelling skills, and my understanding of proper English grammar. I know exactly what I want to say in my first language, but I struggle to express the same thoughts in English because I don't always know the right words or how to structure my sentences.
So far, I've been watching English videos and practicing speaking by myself, but I still struggle to speak spontaneously. I would really appreciate hearing what worked for you. What was the most effective way you improved your English communication and storytelling skills, especially for BPO or VA interviews?
Any advice or personal experiences would mean a lot to me.
Thank you so much!
PS. I'm from Philippines
I think one of the reason why I'm struggling to speak in english because I lack of knowledge in different English words can someone tell me how I can improve my vocabulary in english?

Fresh graduate ako and currently looking for a job. Gusto ko sana mag-apply sa BPO or VA because I need a stable income as soon as possible. Ang concern ko lang is di talaga ako magaling verbally mag English and madalas akong ma-mental block like literal na wala nalang masasabi bigla.
Sobrang pressured na ako ngayon kasi gusto ko na talagang makahanap ng trabaho. I really want to help my family talaga kaya super pressure and stress talaga ako to the point na dina ako nakakatulog sa gabi kakaisip anong next mangyayari sakin, yung father ko kasi nagda-dialysis, kaya ang dami naming gastusin sa gamot at treatment nya kaya want na want ko na talaga sana makahelp sakanila. Sa ngayon kasi ate ko lang ang may work now pero maliit lang din ang sahod niya.
So dahil nga dun gusto ko talagang mag-apply sa BPO or maging Virtual Assistant dahil mas okay ang potential salary. Ang problema ko lang talaga is hindi ako confident sa pagsasalita ko ng English like literal. Kapag interview na o kailangan magsalita, sobrang kinakabahan ako at parang nabablangko talaga ako.
Gustong-gusto ko nang mag-apply, pero pakiramdam ko hindi pa talaga ako ready and baka magsayang lang ako ng pamasahe, oras, at opportunity kung babagsak lang din ako dahil sa English communication ko. I really and willing to learn english muna talagaa and mag reready lang muna din ako kahit this july and by 1st week of August kahit anong mangyari mag aapply na talaga ako.
Previous attempts:
Nanonood ako ng English videos at nagpa-practice mag-isa, pero nahihirapan pa rin akong magsalita nang spontaneous. Gusto ko sanang malaman kung ano ang pinaka-effective na ginawa ninyo para mabilis ma-improve ang English communication at storytelling skills, especially for BPO or VA interviews.
Any advice or personal experiences would really help. Thank you so much!

Guys, ano bang ginagawa niyo sa Kabataan Trabaho Konek? Sobrang mahiyain kasi ako, and I really have social anxiety, especially kapag may activities na kailangang gawin with other people. Pero kailangan ko na talaga ng pera ngayon, kaya gusto kong i-push tong Kabataan Trabaho Konek. 😭
Sa mga naunang batch, ano-ano po ba ang ginagawa ninyo doon? Kumusta po yung experience? Thank you po! 🥹
Good day po. I live near Punturin Elementary School Main, and I'm really interested in studying at TESDA through St. Thomas Aquinas Institute of Caloocan Inc. I have already inquired about the program. Based on Google Maps, around 13 minutes drive lang po ang layo ng school from our place. However, my problem is that I don't know how to commute going there.
​
Their address is:
B10 L2 Upper Peach Palm St., Whispering Palm Subd., Llano Rd., Brgy. 167, Caloocan City.
​
May I ask what public transportation I should take from Punturin to get there?I would really appreciate it if you could guide me on the easiest route and the vehicles I need to ride. Thank you so much! 😊
