Yes. I started working yesterday in Ortigas. I'm working at Euro Asia & Group Philippine Holdings LTD INC, a company that is still in its first few stages of expanding. The salary is not big, in fact some say that it is really just a bit but what the heck, I have to start somewhere. I think it's better than not earning anything at all. I was not the greatest student so i guess I don't really deserve a huge salary right now. I still have to prove my worth.
I guess in a way, the job found me. I did not apply for it. They contacted me last Monday. I went for an interview Tuesday. They accepted me. I accepted the job Wednesday. I started working yesterday, Friday.
I know I wanted to be in Media, Advertising, or broadcasting but then I had to wake up from my dream and accept reality. Going into that field would be hard for me. There are a lot of better ones out there.
I should like what I'm doing coz how the hell would I stay in something that I don't like right? What made me decide was the beach development thing. I LOVE to go to the beach! Another thing was the Korean owners of the company. We are literally going to do the stuff I watch in Koreanovelas. We have to bow when we see the chairman and the president. We also have to go out with all the staff when they say so. It's their treat anyway. I had no idea that the forced drinking after work was real! Another thing that made me accept was the position they gave me. I am a Marketing Assistant. Sounds good. hehehe
I'll see if I can like this job. hmmm.... How long will I stay?
I saw an ad in jobstreet. An advertising agency from the US is setting up their own here in the Philippines. In Mandaluyong to be exact. They are looking for management trainees and the salary is 5k more than mine. Should I apply now? Or should I apply after a month or 2?
