Hello. So my boss recently filed for an immediate resignation & I will be the one who’s left to catch the workload that was being handled since time immemorial.
I am currently still on probation btw. Is it possible to ask my recruiter regarding a possible re-alignment of job title/compensation regarding this transition?
Thank you for your advice.
Hr assistant ako and mag one month na ako sa company and everytime before ko i-submit ang mga tasks need muna ipa check sa kasama ko or sa supervisor pero busy sila and natatagalan ang work ko kasi minsan after 1 hour pa nila ma check. Gusto ko sana na hindi na nila I check since feel ko kaya ko naman siya gawin pero pag tinatanong ko if i-check pa nila then I check parin daw. Pero natatagalan talaga mga tasks ko
Hi, need advice lang po. Currently processing na ako for reemployment requirements sa new company. Done na medical and waiting nalang matapos ibang requirements then orientation na.
While checking my forms, napansin ko na instead na 2019 yung nilagay kong start date sa previous company, naging 2021 siya by mistake. Everything else naman tama.
Should I inform HR now habang maaga pa, or hayaan nalang unless mapansin nila? Medyo kinakabahan lang ako baka isipin intentional kahit honest mistake lang talaga.
Had an interview earlier sa isang HR. Everything went well, I was referred by my colleague for a very niche role here sa PH and ako yung first candidate they interviewed after posting the role last week. So typical interview then salary na. Im earning 160K + 20K allowance now as a Manager, so I mentioned 180K as my whole package ko and was asking for 240K-220K. Appreciated her transparency after all said and done she told me na ang budget lang nila is 140K per month. Now, i think I hit all the spot and requirements they require, i was a referral and im coming for a huge company (tech company). Tingin nyo ba they will try to haggle again? Or let go ko na? This hiring org is a tech start up din.
Di ko alam if OA lang ako, pero bakit parang normalized na sa team namin yung pagsend unnecessarily ng mukha ng candidates sa team gc? 😅
Like, gets naman na may funny moments talaga when we're doing interviews with applicants. Pero I cannot see myself taking an unsolicited screenshot of them during our interview, open camera and all, sabay send sa gc with a joke or funny caption na minsan ay borderline pangungutya na lol pero kahit harmless yung joke, napapaisip pa rin ako na para saan pa?
Minsan naman yung pictures ni applicant sa resume yung target nila. I mean di naman ako nagsasantu-santuhan, natatawa rin naman ako paminsan minsan sa trip ng mga applicants pero I keep it to myself na lang and I offer feedback to them when I can. Bakit kailangan pa ishare sa iba?
Kayo, anong thoughts niyo?
Hi! I’m currently employed in a fintech company as a data analyst but I realized I really want to pursue HR, specifically talent recruitment. HR positions talaga initial na hinahanap ko as my first job although BSBA finance ang course ko. Medyo mataas kasi yung JO sa current company ko and I really needed a source of income na that time. Yung naunang interview ko naman with another company for an HR position did not push through kasi may mas better daw para sa position kesa sakin but they still proceeded to interview me for a finance role. I need advice for the following po sana:
I like my company’s benefits but I realized this field and job is not for me. Introvert ako but I love interacting with people and doing presentations. Don’t get me wrong, I like and am comfortable with routinary work but in my current job mostly na nakakainteract ko lang ay documents and numbers 😭 At the end of the day, mentally drained ako after dealing with numbers but I still have a lot of energy since I didn’t get to talk much with others.
Any advice would be helpful and greatly appreciated po.
Thank you so much! ✨job offer dust to everyone who’s looking for a better opportunity! ✨
hello, I'm a BS psychology student and graduating na this year (mga July or August), ngayon na bakasyon na namin gusto ko sana makahanap ng work na align sa program ko which is yung HR, since hindi pa ko pwede mag work sa clinical field kasi need lisenced and wala din akong budget for review center.
Gusto ko din naman magkaroon ng years of experience sa industrial field, pero as a graduating student most sa mga nahahanap ko is need ng 1-2 years of experience sa HR😭 May mare recommend po ba kayo na company na pwedeng mag hire ng fresh grads? Huhu badly need na kasi ng work dahil nakakapressure na din here sa bahay HAHAHAHA;)
Ganito ba talaga ang feeling pag sunod-sunod ang interview pero wala pa ring job offer? Puro na lang final interview. 😭
Tapos pagdating sa expected salary, babaratin ka pa kesyo "province rate" kahit may experience naman na. Hay, nakakapagod maghanap ng work. Paulit-ulit 'yung questions, nag-iiba lang 'yung nagtatanong at kung kanino ko sinasagot.
Nakaka-overwhelm na ewan. Pero sabagay, okay na 'to kaysa naman walang tumatawag ulit.
Kayo, kamusta job hunting niyo?
Hi everyone, need your thoughts on this.
I accepted a job offer at a new company but had to push back my start date by a week because I caught adult chickenpox (bulutong). I shared this in confidence with a few trusted colleagues who are already working there.
Long story short, it got leaked to the whole team. Someone forwarded me screenshots of their company Group Chat, and it turns out my future teammates are actively making fun of me and laughing about it. Worse, the immediate manager was in the GC and didn't even stop it, sinabi lang niya na magpa-vaccine sila.
Medical history is strictly Sensitive Personal Information under the Data Privacy Act, and honestly, seeing those screenshots is causing me so much stress and anxiety before my first day.
* Should I report this directly to the new company's HR and Data Protection Officer (DPO) before I start?
Appreciate any advice orL egal/HR insights. Thank you!
Hello! After almost 2 months of job hunting, I am now looking forward to my first job as an HR ASSISTANT! Since this is my first time, do you have any advice for me?
I am quite nervous but really looking forward to work and blending well with the company. I want to have a good performance so that they can give me the opportunity to grow long term with them. Thank you so much!
Hello, everyone. So, my last day of duty sa current company ko is May 30,2026. Our company has 5 days VL & 5 days SL but sabi ng workmate ko is pro-rated daw ung leave ko from January to May so 5 months. Ask ko lang if ganito ba talaga? I already used 1.5 VL & 3 SL pero since pro-rated nga 2.08 lang ang bayad ako the difference is idededuct sa final pay ko. Is this correct po? Akala ko kasi separate ung pag pro-rate sa SL & VL like 2.08 each sya.
Used sick leave : 3
Used vacation leave : 1.5
Total: 4.5
Hello po, currently an undergraduate 4th year student. I was wondering how do I become eligible to take the CHRA Exam if I am a Communication student? Thanks ahead po.
haha pa-rant lang. 3rd day ko pa lang, bago akong HR sa team, lima kami.
I have experience working as an HR before so may alam na ko sa HR processes, di ko alam kung dahil ba alam nilang may exp na ko kaya they expect me to figure out the company’s step by step processes on my own.
iba iba kasi process per company diba? ofc i want to adhere with my new company’s HR processes, kaso jusko naman.
first day ko, “turn over” ng task, kasi yung dating may hawak ng hahawakab ko is ililipat ng ibang facet. then days onwards, iniwan na ko. as in walang nagsusupervise sakin if tama ba pinaggagawa ko, or within the company’s standard ba. as in like, “oh eto tools mo, bahala ka na.”
tapos ang random bigla na may itatanong sila sakin or may hahanapin sila na parang ang tagal tagal ko na nagttrabaho don. ate, 3rd day ko pa lang.
di ko naman expect i-babysit ako but teh train niyo naman ako kahit ilang days lang, tas pag mali mali ginawa ko ang balik is sakin din naman.
hahaha di ko naman tinatantanan sa tanong yung nagturnover sakin, isang tanong isang sagot lang din naman siya. imbis na mapadali buhay naming dalawa, hindi e.
hay ewan. basta wala nagrant lang ako.
I am an HR and I am new with this company but I have already gained years of experience with this field prior to my employment with them. Nanotice ko lang na halos lahat ng practice nila is hindi aligned with the Philippines Labor Laws and I am currently preparing and making a proposals to update their system but the thing is that ang hirap i'reach yung management, like they are closed minded and like kung ano yung inemplement nila, yun lang yung susundin regardless if it's applicable or not applicable with the Law. For context, this is a family business, the parents build this company and lahat ng process down to procedure halos lahat they built it from scratch and up until now it is the current practice. This was used to be managed by both Parents but now passed down to their child.
They hired an HR Manager before and actually the business itself was already going 15 years but they had build the HR Department for just about 3years pa lang now.
I tried to reach the Management once, informed them with citation pa ng DOLE Rule para sure talaga yung statement ko and they shut me off, they told me that whatever scheme they currently have, we will be sticking to that. As an HR I want to help the company build it's HR system flow and processes, procedures, even the documentation itself gusto kong ayusing kaya lang I feel like the more that I flagged their current process the more I can feel a threat with my status. Like hindi pa ko regular pero madami na akong na raised the concern regarding their process so right now I am staying low kasi parang feeling ko I am a threat or a becoming a burden or a problem with the management kasi alam mo yung feeling na ang hirap when you're knowledgeable and they can't accept any change when in fact it's for their company and reputation naman ginagawa ko and sooner or later pwede talaga nila ako mapaalis because the company can find or use anything para lang mapaalis yung hindi nila gusto.
I don't want to resign kasi ang laki ng offer nila but ang hirap maging bulag sa proseso nila especially if alam mo naman talaga na may mali. Maybe you can help me with your advises?
Hi, gusto ko lang i-rant ito at ng mailabas ko na rin sya sa damdamin ko. 2nd job ko naman 'to pero for HR Assistant (Recruitment and Regulatory) position, ito ang una. 3 months palang ako sa position ko, at aminado ako na hindi ko pa naman gamay ang lahat especially payroll. Plus, naiwan na ako mag isa sa hr dept. kasi yung hr specialist namin, nag resign na and last day nya kahapon. Hindi ko lang ma-gets sa management, alam na mag reresign yung tao pero hindi nila ako inadvisan na mag hanap ng bago. Kumbaga bagsak sa akin lahat, yes alam ko namang dahil hr ako pero damn ang expectations ba in 3 months or 2 weeks notice ng hr specialist namin matututunan ko na agad lahat? Hay ewan. Sorry kasi natatakot ako sa totoo lang na naiwan ako mag isa. And anyone who can guide me on how to do better sa payroll? Pls jusko.
To those who work in HR especially sa big companies (construction industry), do you usually call sa current company ng inintirview mo to confirm something or for some other reason? I’ve been submitting multiple applications sa mga companies kahit na employed ako pero somehow medyo natatakot padin ako kasi what if tumawag directly yung inapplyan ko sa current company ko lalo na at direct to our boss yung contact since wala naman kaming HR 🥲
I'm applying for my 2nd job. Specifically at Accenture
During the HR interview they asked for my current comp I said if it was necessary and they said to help them and stuff or something I didnt bother arguing so I said 26k monthly including allowances and bonuses. And i said my target salary was between 45k - 60k base. Crazy I know but my collegues had an offer for atleast 40k on big4 firm. They said if I might be fine if i might consider a lower offer since of my years of experience (2 years) and i said yea no worries (just so i can put my feet at the door).
And later I later learned that Accen has a 10-hour workday.
Now just finished the technical interview and I think I aced it like 100% me thinks. Especially as I got praised a lot by the hiring manager. Now I heard that theyd be drafting my offer. And the job listing disappeared on workday.
Now im curious if the first thing HR would do is if theyll do is offer me the lowest band part of the role, or the lowest band of my suggested pay or even anchor it to my previous comp and offer lower than my target comp.
Either way if they offer lowest or highest. Im wondering if I should always suggest a counter offer or am I risking the job offer If I try to counter that offer.
And if i should counter offer, whats a good or great %?
I spent hours talking with chatgpt and gemini but in the end a real person's experience will always have a higher weight.
Thank you so much for any advice 🙇♂️
Pls be kind, medyo conflicted lang talaga and I need your advice.
Do I really need to build a LinkedIn account nowadays?
I used to have one years ago pero dinelete ko for personal reasons (previous HS classmates found me and started selling me insurance plans, memorial plans, etc nahihiya ako tumanggi. I know my reason is stupid).
Right now, I work as a PM / IT Planner sa head office ng isang bank. Most of the opportunities I’ve had throughout my career hanggang current role ko ngayon either nakita ko lang sa company FB career page or referral siya from people I previously worked with sa short consultancy projects and engagements.
Even most of the bosses and senior people I’ve worked with wala namang active LinkedIn presence, or if meron man, sobrang minimal lang ng laman. Current role/company lang usually.
May day job naman ako ngayon pero naga-apply pa rin ako kapag may opening na tingin kong fit sakin. Pero lately napapaisip ako if I’m limiting myself by not having LinkedIn, especially now that I’m targeting more managerial, delivery, strategy, or governance-related roles.
For those working in IT, project management, banking, consulting, or corporate roles:
malaking factor ba talaga ang LinkedIn ngayon?
-may actual interviews or offers ba kayong nakuha through it? or ok lang naman kahit wala as long as may experience and network ka?
-Genuinely curious lang and trying to figure out if worth rebuilding one at this point in my career.
As for social media presence, wala rin ako. Wala akong IG and inactive ako sa Facebook eversince but I keep the messenger kasi yun ang chatgroup ko with me senior parents and some family members.
