Job Fair in its Flip Side

     You woke up early in the morning, took a fresh bath, ate a healthy delish breakfast, wore an elegant office attire, checked all the necessary requirements and you're ready to go. But let's just say you're an average fresh grad. What kind of job will they give you in a job fair?


     This blog post is intended to disclose some other FACTS about job fairs (but not in general) which may help the readers better equip themselves as they indulge into this specific event.



  • FACT 1: Companies nowadays, though not all, are searching for employees who are quite close to perfect. They prefer those who can work real time, those who are highly familiar with a job so that they will not spend to much money for the training as well as save time hence they could make use of the person's service right away! To cut it short, the companies would mostly prefer someone with EXPERIENCE!
  • FACT 2: A job fair is actually a requirement from the government through the Dept. of Labor and Employment  to companies. They are required to promote FULL employment through allocation and utilization of manpower. Will they really hire you? That depends with the company. Usually, their call takes some time (like months) specially when the certain position you've applied for wasn't really vacant after all. 

    
     Job fair is such an ear candy specially to fresh grads who are so excited to experience the real world. Take this as a challenge then! Whether they hire you or not, the most important thing is you show them what you got. After all, talking to company representatives is a great experience. Interview after interview you get to learn how to play tricks on them. Without any doubt, job fair is so fun to do! =)

Question: What's the difference between dreaming and pretending?

 I usually go to Yahoo Answers when social sites get a bit boring. For those who are not so familiar with Yahoo Answers, it is actually a  very helpful tool for your questions to be answered by real people in a few minutes or even seconds. If you're not so good with research, let other yahoo users do it for you. You can also share ideas with others by answering their questions and earn points at the same time.
     Like I said, I'm so into sharing ideas with other people. This is why Direct to the P-O-I-N-T is built in the first place. In this question, my answer was tagged as the best one. Just read through! =)






















My Answer (it seems that the words from the figure's too small): the best answer would be: Dreaming is when you're asleep and Pretending is when your awake! You can take that literally or figuratively!!

Racial Attack Against Filipino Nurses

     While I was doing nothing and it feels like playing this particular online game was getting boring, I've come across "Dana Groulx thinks she's perfect... She's just a scared freakin' racist" facebook group page. Out of curiosity, I've read through the group page from its wall, group info, to its member's discussion. You may click on the link to see the group page.
     To give you a little background about Dana Gilner Gladman also known as Dana Groulx, she is actually working as a pharmacist in Florida. Dana tried to become a doctor many years ago but never passed the MCAT, an entrance test required for every aspiring Medical Student worldwide.Now she is freakin' mad at the Filipino nurse who courteously and professionally obeys MD orders.
      The picture above was taken from Dana's facebook wall. Her status obviously criticized Filipino nurses as a whole thus considered as an act of racism. 


  • FYI 1: Doctors' orders are doctors' orders and no one can change it not even nurses nor a pharmacist like Dana! Pharmacist may clarify or suggest but there's no way she can change it right away. 


  • FYI 2: Kudos to all Filipino nurses for being professional and ethical for that matter!


  • FYI 3: Doctors are not moron as Dana thinks! They all have passed the MCAT not to mention the other examinations that they have took before they became MDs. Dana shows a kind of thinking like she is always right and perfect. You can also check out her tweets in that case.
     And another thing! While I was scrolling down to the group page's wall, I've read through some comments of some members. There's this one female Thai who has negative impression about Filipinos which is obviously caused by lack of knowledge about the race's culture. The other antagonist of the group page was unfortunately, a fellow Filipino who seems to be incapable of accepting what he really is and transformed himself into something like a racist of his own race. The admin of the group page posted some comments to lessen future misleading reactions.
     To my fellow Filipinos, we should not forget that everyone would one way or another have something against someone as the old saying goes, "No one can please everyone". As long as we do things the right way and we take things in a professional, ethical way (unlike these racists who thinks they're PERFECT), nothing and no one could ever pull us down no matter how they try. So instead of keeping bad vibes about it, let's just take the criticism positively for the better! =)

Question: How do i get over my fear of spiders?

 I usually go to Yahoo Answers when social sites get a bit boring. For those who are not so familiar with Yahoo Answers, it is actually a  very helpful tool for your questions to be answered by real people in a few minutes or even seconds. If you're not so good with research, let other yahoo users do it for you. You can also share ideas with others by answering their questions and earn points at the same time.
     Like I said, I'm so into sharing ideas with other people. This is why Direct to the P-O-I-N-T is built in the first place. In this question, my answer was tagged as the best one. Just read through! =)










     My Answer (it seems that the words from the figure's too small): I used to be someone who's so afraid of cockroaches, spiders, and rats (the black ones). During my stay in our very affordable boarding house, I was exposed to these creatures even more. That explains the price of the room I guess. Roaches fly from wall to wall and Mr.Rat (as huge as a 2 and a half week-old kitten) passes by every now and then. At first I'm really scared of them. But later on I get used to them and they disappeared when the landlady made a serious cleaning in the house. To my surprise i miss them lolz..

In psychology we call it "Habituation" where in you get to learn how to get use of some things.This will help you get rid of your fear from spiders and its other folks. 

All you have to do is learn to ignore them. And then after that, you may get rid of them by yourself and you'll be the bravest person on that very day!

Similarities Between a Job/Career and a Boyfriend



One of the reasons why some couples have misunderstanding is when they have different paths in life also known as career locally related to "job". I haven't experienced it yet that's why I'm not gonna write anything about it!


For some couples, relationship and career doesn't go along with each other. But you'll be surprised if I tell you that a career/job is more like waiting or looking for the right guy for me because I'm a lady and waiting/looking for the right girl for guys. Here are some of the similarities:

  1. You settle for it in a specific span of time 'til you find out that it really is what you're looking for or worse, the other way around.
  2. If it is not what you are looking for then you'll feel uncomfortable about it and so basically you will have to decide if you're going to continue or not!
  3. And if you decide to discontinue (resign from a job or break-up with someone), then again you have to wait for the new opportunity and it's gonna take a little while.
  4. Sometimes it may require full effort for someone to really find what he really likes and loves! 
  5. And if incase, just incase you have found the right thing for you, then you will always recognize it because it is what you love and like at thesame time. You will exert extra effort without even telling yourself that you are required to do so. You just do it like it's natural! And you will never ever feel tired with what you are doing. You will always feel excited like it's the first time!
This is from my own hypothetical analysis with what I usually hear and see with the people around me and with my experience as well. It has been said that experience is the best teacher but with this text I wrote, I still stand to be corrected. For any reactions, feedbacks and suggestions you may post it here or in my facebook account or text me---that is if you know my number lolz!
