i strongly suggest you withdraw your application. i handle recruitment and we have ways of verifying school records of ALL shortlisted applicants as part of BI.

if your company conducts BI and finds out about your perjury, you'd be immediately dismissed and it'b stay in your 201.

i never lied during interviews. I am too honest that I even admitted to interviewers that communication skills is my greatest weakness.

What were you thinking? nagawa mo to? di mo ba narealize na kailangan ng proof kung nag grad ka ng isang course? (Transcript etc?) Don't tell me pepekein mo din to, it will only get worse. Ok lang kung let's say skills or trainings stuff.. pero course? Grabe di ako makapaniwala.. unless maliit na company lang sila tapos yung tipong hindi talaga nag veverify...

[sweetpot]

I did it out of desperation, coz... basta....hehehe i never landed a job because of my real course! luckily, its just a small company.. kaso, after that, parang ayoko nang ituloy, if ever man, papirmahin ako ng contract, d pa naman ako pinapapirma

[Dacs]

As others have said, kung "trivial" details lang such as trainings and skills, puede ka pa makalusot.

Pero dude, course yan! Mas masahol pa yan sa pag-doctor ng grades! And believe me, I've heard cases of employees dismissed because of falsifying their info way less in gravity than yours.

[lolie]

oo nmn! its just a white lie!;)

sometimes..it must eh.db?

[Dacs]

White lie ba yung falsifying your course?

[treefingers]

White lie ba yung falsifying your course?

very, very black yun. well, goodluck.

[vj_ice_17]

nope.. di ako nagla-lie sa interview, ewan ko ba di ko magawa, takot ako eh, kc eventually malalaman din nila *** totoo kung sakali mang matanggap ako.

[sweetpot]

well,sa call center un... there, i said it!hehehe i just hope they don't check it and stuff.. since its really not they're priority! (daw) ewan ko ba naman kasi kung bakit may discrimination sa course ko when it comes to call centers... kahit na ba sinasabi nila na "graduate of any course" biased pa rin sila eh... i tried it! believe me, they are

[pringles123]

malalaman yan. hindi mahirap i-verify yan.
i'm not in hr, but from what i understand with recruitment professionals, nag-uusap usap yang mga yan. kaya oras na mabisto ka sa isa, huwag kang magtataka kung mahirapan kang humanap ng iba.

i'd suggest i-withdraw mo na lang yung application mo. maigi na yung nasa tama :)

[Dacs]

Strange though, I was in the call center as an agent when I was still an undergraduate.

Call centers aren't particular with the course, unless you're applying for a specific job that calls for a certain course.

yan resume ko, i got stable job kahit it states na im an undergraduate. Daanin mo sa skills. I resigned last week sa last job ko, but I got another (which is better) this week.

Better honest kaysa lagi kang natatakot mahanapan butas.

[sweetpot]

^thanks!hehehehe actually, tumigil muna ako sa pag-aapply... para kasing waste of time and money na *** nangyayari... i'll just gather myself together muna...

[Pex_Girl]

hacksider is right. What goes around... comes around. Nasa tabi tabi lang ang karma.

[hacksider]

Just be honest, kahit mahirap kumuha work, atleast di ka papatayin ng kunsensya mo. And di ka lagi magwo worry na mahanapan ka ng butas. Just a tip, expand your skills, skilled person kinukuha ngayun, not just graduates. That's why I have edges when it comes to jobs. Not bragging, just saying the reality.

[sweetpot]

and also, I'm having second thoughts of working in a call center because of this http://http://www.pinoyexchange.com/forums/showthread.php?p=21066760 (http://www.pinoyexchange.com/forums/showthread.php?p=21066760)

If I were you, when you still can, withdraw your application.

[mikki_pretty]

Yung friend ko, for some reason, dinuktor nya yung resume nya by 'removing' some of his working experinece kasi masyado daw syang over qualified sa mga jobs na gusto nyang pasukan.

:hmm:

I think it is ok to remove some work experience, I know marami diyan kapag 1 month lang sa work at nagresign na, hindi na nilalagay sa resume. Lalo na kapag hindi naman related yung dati mong work experience sa job na apply mo, walang problem kung hindi mo ilagay.

There is a big difference between removing what is there and adding or modifying what is not there.

Yup as what they always say, "honesty is the best policy" ika nga :D Dumarating ang karma sa di inaasahang oras. Mahirap na lalo na kung may nainggit sayo sa office at hanapan ka ng butas, gagawin ang lahat mapaalis ka lang.

Three years ago sobrang hirap din ako makahanap ng work lalo na at undergrad ako nung time na yun. Kaya nag-try ako sa mga call center pero after less than 10 interviews, puro negative ang resulta :rotflmao: Syempre napagod na ako kaya sabi ko, imbes na magsinungaling na graduate at may call center experience, nag-practice ako ng mabuti para ma-enhance ang communication skills. Luckily after several weeks ng pag-practice, may kumuha na din sa akin at nakalipat pa sa ibang call center :)

ngayon naman naghahanap ako ng programming na job. after several months ng paghahanap, naubos na pera ko kaka-apply :D kung kelan naman nag-aapply na ako hindi IT companies e bigla naman ako kinontak ng dati kong inapplayan. I hope ito na ang maging break ko :hmm:

So I suggest don't give up sa course mo. Baka meron pang ibang companies na para sayo. Pag may dumating na opportunity, grab mo na agad. Good luck and God Bless :)

@ hacksider: nakaka-impress naman resume mo, kahit undergrad ka e nagkaroon ka na ng working experience na related sa course mo :) keep it up!

ganyan ginawa ko http://www.21softs.com/emoticons/images/qqsmallsmilies/005.gif

i removed my previous working experience from my resume kase 2 months *** tapos ang layo sa course na tinapos ko (im an IT grad) sa labas **** ng pinas un kaya d rin nila maveverify sa previous employer ko :lol:

i've been TOO honest before kaya madalas d ako nakakapasa sa interviews sa mga target companies ko http://www.21softs.com/emoticons/images/qqsmallsmilies/016.gif although nkakapasa sa exams on companies like azeus, headstrong, dbsoft, etc... after going to several interviews nasanay din ako. alam ko na mga mali ko http://www.21softs.com/emoticons/images/biggrin.gif (hehehe... naisip ko tuloy sana ang inuna kong applyan *** mga companies na ayaw ko para npagpractice-an ko muna interiews nila http://www.21softs.com/emoticons/images/qqsmallsmilies/005.gif )

pero ngyon happy na ko sa current work ko http://www.21softs.com/emoticons/images/biggrin.gif it's a japanese IT company. at eto pa... hindi ako nag-apply sa kanila http://www.21softs.com/emoticons/images/biggrin2.gif i just received a call from them inviting me to take an exam

[monarchrising]

I lied about being serious with my application. Oh, that contradicts the topic!
