Our OJT Final Presentation

    I was the most nervous person during our Final Presentation because my group was assigned to present first and I'm in charge in the introduction speech. I was afraid that time because the CEO might dislike our presentation especially our business plan. I really made our ppt very attractive and I made sure that all the details are there. It's a little bit pressure to me because I'm the leader in our group. Anyway, our presentation went well and also the other group. I was really amaze because some of the group were really impressive and I'm sure that all of us made our best effort.

    I just wanna thank the CEO of Soliventure Philippines Inc., Mr. Pocholo Soliven for giving us the opportunity to work as an intern in his business. I will really treasure the learning and experiences I had during the duty. I also like to thank our moderators Mr. Feliciano Montaño and Mr. Edwin Pamaran for guiding and supporting us from day one to last. Right now, I'm sure all of the Interns are really proud of themselves and excited in the incoming graduation. Congratulations to US!

Goldfish for our Business Plan

     After serving for 150 hours for the company where I was assigned to be an intern, the owner told us to make a Business Plan and of course with unique product.The Business Plan will serve as the final requirement of our On the Job Training and if we will be successful, we will surely graduate on this coming March. It's really a pressure on our part because of the time given to us plus we are not in the mood in doing it. HAHAHAHA. But hey! This is for our future and for sure, we will able to do it successfully because we already made lots of business plan for almost four years! 

    Our group had a hard time to decide if what will be our product because we have different ideas and suggestions plus, the product must be unique and easy to do. Making a business plan is a tough one because you need to gather information and make a survey from different people that will serve as your respondents. The most difficult and painful part is the financial aspect because you need to do it correctly. Hiring an accountant is very expensive so if you're a business student, you need to review your accounting. :(

    So in the last minute, we decided to make a business plan for goldfish or goldfish farm. We chose gold fish as our product because here in our place (Zamboanga), there are pet shops that selling gold fish but they need to order from manila. The gold fish that are available here are only the small to medium ones, so we will offer small, medium and large ones. We will serve as the supplier of gold fish here in Zamboanga. We will not have a difficulty in the place where the business will be located because my colleague will be responsible for it.

   I hope the owner of the company will be appreciate and pass our business plan. It is indeed costly but to be successful, we need to take the risk. Good luck to US!    

Any suggestions for our business plan?

Job Fair 2012

Most of us wants a job immediately after college graduation that fits our course. Accordingly, fresh graduates can get their transcript og records after one month of graduation and that's freaking me out because I don't like to stay in the house for one month. I love to have a vacation but I also want to work after so that I can already earn money for myself. 

Last February 10 that was last friday, our school conducted a job fair. I was really excited yet nervous before the job fair because I don't know what to wear and I can't decide if where I will apply. Plus, I'm not sure if my resume is impressive so I keep on editing and editing until the last minute. Most of my classmated decided to apply in the private companies because there were hirings and vacant positions. For me, I decided to apply in the three different banks but sadly, I was able to pass my resume only in Banco de Oro. I was eager to apply in One Network Bank because they need tellers, accounting clerks and loan manager assistants but the interview was already closed :(

In the last minute, my BF told me to apply in PC911 because they have hiring sales person. At first, I didn't like the idea but since it's only for summer and part-time job, I did apply and the interview went well. The interviewer asked me if I'm willing to assign in Davao City as Marketing Staff and I said "it depends on the COMPENSATION". HAHAHA! Well practically speaking, renting an apartment or boarding house is very costly plus the other expenses so if I will work in other place I want a good compensation.  :)

My friends and I took some pictures during the Job Fair.

Busy I am!

It's been two months since I blog and it hurts me so much because I don't have the time. After the Ateneo Fiesta, I was busy with my "On the Job Training" interview. I was hoping that I will be assign in a company that will surely challenge me. I am not saying that I dislike where I am right now, it's just like I want different environment. Anyway, I am assign in Soliventure Inc. to be exact in Bloomingdales Department Store. You can see me in 2nd and 3rd floor depends in my mood. HAHA! I was assigned originally in 3rd floor teens wear area but I like in the 2nd floor because I can see glamorous dresses. I've been doing sales talk to the customers since last December 2011. Haay!

Again, I've been very busy for the last two months until NOW. There's a lot problems we encountered but I hope we will able to graduate this March. We were obliged to render 200 hours and I'm already in my 140 hours! Good luck to me :)

Sorry for the low quality picture :(
