I.T. Companies in the Philippines

[spark]

I want to look for a new job but I don't know which companies to apply to.

Please consider factors like prestige, salary, career path, training, fringe benefits, workload etc.

And if you could also name companies you think i should shy away from, it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your replies!

[nix]

What's your field? Are you a techie or a business development type?

[spark]

a techie....

[zimdude]

What sort of techie - IT is quite broad nowadays.

Well if you want Internet engineering, of course I am biased. He he. :lol:

[spark]

i'm kinda interested in joining an IT consulting firm. They say Andersen Consulting has good reputation for hiring and developing the best IT professionals but the workload could sometimes (or should i say "more often than not"?) be unbearable and the pay/benefit package isn't necessarily the best there is.

James Martin + co is also very well reputed but i've heard that work there, like in AC, is exhausting. The salary is said to be good, though. Is there any truth to the rumors?

What about the others like KPMG, CIS, SVIC? I haven't heard so much about work in these companies. Are there other companies i should check out?

[zimdude]

... what attracts you to IT consulting, if I may ask?

[r¢¥ peace!]

zilip lang ako, kuha ng idea za inyo.. :D

[Mr. Hanky]

i'm a computer engineering major but programming is really not for me..what kind of job in the IT field can i apply for? i've heard that i could try the telecoms industry w/c i think is more about networking.

[zimdude]

...Mr. Hanky you'd probably fit in at an ISP or the IP services of a telco where you get to do networking but still apply Computer Science-related skills...

[nerbie]

I'm my on opinion ... working in a telecom would be interesting. Right now the most interesting technology is evolving in the telecoms and the Net i supposed. :)

[zimdude]

I should agree... that's my line of work! :lol:

I design IP networks and systems... :D

[Mr. Hanky]

i was also told that these companies will train you first when u get the job. what kind of training is it exactly?

[zimdude]

If it's Internet-related, it would be on-the-job training on servers, Unix, routers, switches, and the like. For example at our place we have continuous training programs.

[*BuTTerFly*]

zimdude: talaga? continuous training?? saan naman yan? do you accept fresh grads? :)

[zimdude]

... butterfly, I work for an ISP, one of the bigger ones. we have to make sure we are up to date. the training is not formal, though, coz the stuff we do - IP and systems engineering - is in a state of constant development.

... I don't know about the other departments, but mine is hiring senior people only at the moment.

[rayzer]

hey zim! so what company do you work for? spill the beans.

[eli]

1. BERNHOF CONSULTING PHILIPPINES

check it out.. 20th flr 88 Corporate Center, Makati.

[zimdude]

rayzer, I'd rather not say here, but I've posted it somewhere here... :D

All the best in your career moves!

[romeovoidny]

I'm planning on taking a networking certification class and need an opinion on what's best to take...CCNA (CISCO) or MCSE or other? All suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

i've heard alot about: Trend Micro, IAyala & Pacific Internet. what IT companies pay the best money? who knows? anybody?

[zimdude]

iAyala - maybe if you START the company like our mods + admins here at PEx :D as an employee, no idea.

Trend Micro, no idea, but if they value people who can whack viruses, then they should pay!

Pacific Internet - if you plan to work there, work for us instead. :lol:

[vaio]

so zim where do you work?

[zimdude]

I'm working at inter.net (http://www.inter.net) Philippines.

[grafanatic]

FYI. Most of the jobs here in Software Ventures International are systems support and enhancement running in mainframe..so if you want to be very very marketable in the future you might want to check out SVI..you know, very small na lang ang numbers ng mga mainframe programmers and Singaporean recruiters are waiting at SVI's doorstep...everyday..as in....

[tRiStAn]

grafanatic: I've heard SVI's in need of 165 programmers this year. I've taken their exam (which was very ACET-like, by the way) and right now I'm waiting for the result. Granted that I pass the exam (God, pleaaaase! :D ), what then? How much is the starting salary for programmers? I'm actually a Math major, so I basically know little about programming and stuff. Would that be a problem? (The teacher who referred me to SVI, Dr. Marijo Ruiz, said it doesn't. :) ) Is it really true that the "big bosses" there are teachers right now at AdMU? And how about the 3-year contract? Is that true? Thanks!

[zimdude]

After your stay there at SVI, what would you do with your Mainframe skills?

If I were a math major, I'd do something like Akamai (http://www.akamai.com)... studying the world's network configurations and how they relate to each other... oolalah ;)

[alikabok]

can i answer ur questions to grafanatic? well kahit ayaw mo eto na! :

>>How much is the starting salary for programmers?
ranges from 15 to 17 ata.. depends on how u fared during the 3 mos training >:

>>I'm actually a Math major, so I basically know little
>>about programming and stuff. Would that be a problem?
nah.. they will teach u that, so.. prepare for a crash course. they will hire any brave heart who dares to enter
the dungeon.. err.. IT world.

>>Is it really true that the "big bosses" there are teachers >>right now at AdMU?
yes. CS dept.

>>And how about the 3-year contract? Is that true? Thanks!
sad but true hehe :).

>FYI. Most of the jobs here in Software Ventures
>>International are systems support and enhancement running >>in mainframe..

look into my eyes and repeat after me "i dont want to work with mainframes", repeat it 50 times.
ull get a good pay in CA or in SG
but its not as exciting as the new orange
flavor lollipop candy.
anyway if u have good background in client/server, web development, server side scripting, etc., and you like programming than system support u might be lucky be to assigned in web development team(s).. doing java/jsp/asp/perl/xml/whatevershit.

>>>what would you do with your Mainframe skills?

build the next killer app in MVS sh1t. having
done it 100% compatible to .NET technology,
theres no need for dinosaur corporations to downsize
their ancient boxes.

i suggest u look for startups located at eastwood ;}.
anyone familiar with "simteria"? they are looking for web developers. and the job desc sounds major fun!

[eli]

SVI is a lousy company...

try Accenture instead.

[zimdude]

Don't just slam the company,
say why it's lousy. ;)

[tRiStAn]

Thanks, alikabok!

[tRiStAn]

Another question: how many exams are you supposed to take before they decide whether or not to hire you? :|

[Quentin]

ehem. well, according to the SVI president, SVIC will eventually be all for the web (but the mainframe will stay somewhat).

[Quentin]

i am sure there's only one. but make that, many tests in one day. ;)

and then wait for the dreaded call. just follow it up if you're impatient :)

[tRiStAn]

I already took their 4-hour exam. But then they gave me a call and told me that they've scheduled another exam for me and that I'm supposed to bring two 2x2 pictures and TR. What's this second exam? :|

[Quentin]

that's funny. i'm wondering what that is too. and you're goin to bring a 2x2 picture? maybe it's an interview. :D

[tRiStAn]

I passed the test! :D What about the interview? Panel ba ito o hindi? :|

[B|uejay]

uy sama ako jan! wala pa akong work!:)
what else can u guys recommend? MIS grad po ako...

[gillbates]

What about Iberpacific? It's an IT-consulting firm specializing in utilities(e.g. telco, hydro) and it's a partnership between Meralco and some Spanish firm. Anybody heard of this one? OK ba sya in terms of career enhancement and training/ compensation package/ working environment? Mukhang magsu-survive ba 'to, o nalulugi na?

I took the entrance exam (pang gifted child 'ata yun eh). It's like an IQ test on steroids.

[swit]

I'm a fresh grad and currently looking for a job. Please help. Thanks!!!

hey am not sure if my memory serves me correctly, but isn't great plains sort of like a call center? Or maybe a technical support center of sorts?

[zimdude]

Yup Guthrie-Jensen is good. We had one training where the head herself led the training. It's probably more than 20 years old.

As for Great Plains, it used to be an independent company known mostly for accounting software, until Microsoft acquired it recently. The Philippine operation used to be a separate company, Match Data Software Philippines, who was the local partner of Great Plains before it was acquired. The wife of my officemate works there so I could probably dig up more info if you need it.

Maganda sa Microsoft Great Plains, pero they use proprietary software, meaning yung gamit nila pandevelop ng applications, exclusive lang sa kanila, kaya pag iba na ang papasukan mong company, di mo magagamit skills na natutunan using their software...sayang the best pa naman working environment dun.... :(

If you choose SVI, better get in the CSG-C division, and in the PeopleSoft project. Not only is this group expanding...it's probably a good stepping stone as well...like learning Mainframe, and Client server skills in one...PeopleSoft pa...very very easy to get in, you don't even have to be a computer science course graduate, bs biology will do...their client is a Fortune Top 50 company....yup in the top 50...and brings three to seven people to the US as "onsite" consultants on a three-six month rotation all year long...

Work environment it pretty lax...get on the night shift and sleep all night if you want...morning shifts flies by so fast, lunch time is even included in the shift...2 hours pa if you want...that's six hours work only...and 6 am to 9 am, nothing happens anyway so you got only three hours to look like you are working...and the afternoon shift has dinner time in their 8 hours shift...nothing happens after six naman eh...

What's more, you don't have to know squat about the work coz they teach it to you for the first three months...and as you go along...

You can Internet all day if you want...download anything...play Counterstrike in the office, Yahoomessenger or TurboNotes...Burning CDs also is available....play Archmage online....download whole anime episodes and watch them all in your shift...sure, no problem. Talk on the phone all night long...wear anything you want...at night...long hair, short hair...who cares? You can even gamble with cards with the security guards and messenger boys if you want...

if u know vb it will help you alot coz not all projects are done in dexterity, thats the name of the language. whats important is that you dont stop learning.

[Bravoexo]

You know what, SVI still exist coz it's clients are all foreign based, mostly biggies pa...so they pay in big bucks....sayang nga lang at madalas mainframe jobs....well, I guess that's because most companies use mainframes (still)...anyway..

Here in the US, VB is not really that popular...in Singapore maybe, coz it's easy to program....but it's frowned over here...I don't know why...Java is quite popular....anything unix, I guess...

But the minute you say "DB2" man, you are revered. Funny, no?

What's awefully nice at SVI is that you can go Mainframe, Cobol, JCL, TMVS/TSO, SQL, DB2, and in a wink of an eye, do Client server VB, Java, C, C++, Html, and then go exotic, like Powerbuilder, Delphi, Peopletools, Peoplecode, or go to the rarerities, like OS4690, Telon, Rbase, GWBasic...etc...with a project or not...you'll still get paid the same, with a project or not...

Then, when you learn the skills, that's when you jump ship. ^_^ (It's a goldmine of a computer school I tell you, they pay you to learn the skills...he he)

Ang ganda pa nga ng security ng job mo eh...me isa nga eh, 3 o apat na oras na nga lang pumasok, usually 4 hours late pa sya...continuous lang ang suspension niya...pero hindi siya na "fired" ng companya...siya pa ang nagresign on his own accord... ^_^ he he he....

It's just too bad many jump ship too often...money talks kasi eh....

hehe! before, people thought great plains was an agricultural company coz of the name :D microsoft great plains has their own techincal support team also, and lots of hirings nowadays are for those positions...maybe that's why people now think the company is a call center. microsoft great plains is actually a company that provides business management, financial and accounting solutions.

>>You know what, SVI still exist coz it's clients are all foreign >>based, mostly biggies pa...so they pay in big bucks....sayang >>nga lang at madalas mainframe jobs....well, I guess that's >>because most companies use mainframes (still)...anyway..

Yes, most of SVI's clients are BIG companies. It's a marketing thing, they only cater to the top clientele. Although they do take in small projects if it's something that can help the company like the early web projects.

>>Here in the US, VB is not really that popular...in Singapore >>ybe, coz it's easy to program....but it's frowned over here...I >>n't know why...Java is quite popular....anything unix, I guess...

VB is, more or less, being frowned on everywhere, even in Singapore. Java is selling like SVI 9th floor's Hamburgerries!

>>What's awefully nice at SVI is that you can go Mainframe, >>Cobol, JCL, TMVS/TSO, SQL, DB2, and in a wink of an eye, do >>ient server VB, Java, C, C++, Html, and then go exotic, like >>werbuilder, Delphi, Peopletools, Peoplecode, or go to the >>rarerities, like OS4690, Telon, Rbase, GWBasic...etc...with a >>oject or not...you'll still get paid the same, with a project or >>not...

What's awfully bad at SVI is a lot of people don''t go jumping from project to project even though the "diversity of experience you'll receive" is something they sell you during your job interview. I got into mainframe very early in my career there. And they stuck me in it despite a loooong time of requesting another project.

>>Ang ganda pa nga ng security ng job mo eh

Tell that to the GIRC people they RETRENCHED.

>>...me isa nga eh, 3 >>o apat na oras na nga lang pumasok, >>usually 4 hours late pa >>sya...continuous lang ang >>suspension niya...pero hindi siya >>na "fired" ng >>companya...siya pa ang nagresign on his own >>cord... ^_^ >>he he he....

You obviously don't know the story with THAT guy. He wanted to be OUT of the company. HR insisted he resign and pay his bond. Nagpatigasan sila hanggang natapos ang contract niya. nag-resign siya.

>>It's just too bad many jump ship too often...money talks kasi >>eh..

Lalo na sa SVI.

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MOOLAH!

[Satanas6001]

If you want "maganda sweldo, exciting trabaho", try the foreign startups like Enterworks and NewNew Systems (the coolest name for a software company ever!).

You should definitely try SPL. Malaki starting, malaki increase, full medical and dental, tapos libre pa softdrinks sa office. check their website at Splwg.com

Don't rely on the website; the page on job openings is not updated. The list that I posted here, for example, is not reflected on the website but SVI is, indeed, in need of these people.

Good luck!

[muroami]

Hey Introvert,
OK ba if you were assign outside the country sa client site? Is there a difference in the compensation? Do SVI send people on a regular basis?
How long ka na ba dyan? Kailan ka naman matatapos sa asignment mo?

Introvert ka nga ba?
:D :D :D

IT consulting is very broad, it depends on what the project is. some IT consulting firms are good on web apps and some are not.

But if ur an IT graduate, you don't necessarily need to work in an IT consulting firm, you can apply in other industries... such as manufacturing, retail, banks and get into their IT/EDP departments. :)

Oks dito, dami pang opening... ka-building mo pa si Kaboom! (for all Jude die-hards out there :D )

Yes, I agree with you, Accenture may be a very good IT firm for fresh grads.

But I heard from a friend there that Accenture terminates a contract (which usually a 2-year contract)?!

Its true!!! You don't have to concentrate on IT companies alone because all establishments (banks, manufacturing, insurance) and companies preferably here in Makati and Ortigas do have a IT or MIS department in it.

Try Petron Corporation, Nestle Phils for example, or just name any banks along Ayala Avenue and Gil Puyat (you should apply on the head office personally).

One of the drawbacks, however, of being in the IT/MIS department of a company specializing in a specific industry is that you'll only be dealing with that particular industry. And that could be tiresome and boring at some point.

One of the advantages, on the other hand, is that you gain business knowledge. You become, what we call, a SME - subject matter expert. SMEs can then work in a real IT house and serve as business analysts.

Yep, introvert's correct. Plus, the deadlines are not that rigid as compared to consulting/software houses. You can sweet talk management to move the deadline. Hehehe...

i came from svi, had worked there for several years. it's not a good company. if you care about your career growth, don't go to svi. basahin nyo na lang yung thread na ito

http://www.pinoyexchange.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=42198&highlight=Software+Ventures

after i left svi and went to another IT company (owned by a foreigner), doon ko nakita ang difference. greedy ang management ng svi and they don't know how to encourage people to work. they don't even know how to pat you on the back. ang hirap pa dito yung forced ranking nila, ang dami ko kasama na nakawawa dito thou they're doing fine naman. beside that, di maganda talaga ang project na mapupuntahan mo, ala sila system sa pagdedevelop, kanya kanya banat. pero if you have 3 years to waste, go ahead, sa 3 years na yun at least may matututunan ka rin sa kanila kahit konti. but i don't really recommend svi. sa bago ko company ngayon, napakabilis kong matuto and ang dami ko natutunan in such a short time, bihasa pa sa experience. kaya okay lang kung overworked ka sa andersen or headstrong, after a year or two napakadami mo namanng alam and mataas na ang market value mo. talo mo pa yung nagwork sa svi ng the same duration sa svi, kahit matalino pa siya and average ka lang. just wondering kung ano na ang nangyari kay dana8....

Accenture is. Re-assessment is actually going to happen in March 2005. The Manila Delivery Center is the first in the global delivery center network that was assessed at Level 5.

Also, last November 2004, we met with a local assessor and she mentioned that there are, if my memory serves me right, 4 companies in the Philippines that are CMM Level 5.

anyone in the board had experience with fujitsu, weserver, wesolv? are they good companies to work for? what about hp, or sun philippines?

ok ba talaga ang accenture as compared to headstrong?

[tinu2o]

i'd worry about headstrong if i were you. some years back, they retrenched hundreds of people, in batches of 50. if you join them, i don't think job security would be a sure thing.

[whitelightning]

ah ganun ba..

eh yung azeus..balita ko lang mahirap daw ang exam/interview..

accenture din naman mahirap ang exam di ba?

i really don't know which company to consider..

[xxtoyxx]

^ dapat apply lang ng apply, hindi siya tipong nagcoconsider ka pa ng companies (unless sobrang olats yung company). apply ng madami at ng sa huli, ikaw ang mamimili.

gamitin ang 80-20 rule sa tuwina, di pwedeng isa lang inapplyan mo, dapat at least lime para me maasahan ka na tawag sa at least isang kumpanya.

accenture - okay naman ang exam, kulang lang sa oras IMO, try to answer the easy ones first para makarami. read the questions muna before the long passages/diagrams na pinagbasehan ng questions, para alam mo na kung ano ang hinahanap mong sagot.

i need your help. mgOOJT na ko by April and gusto ko eh magandang company "sana" yung mapasukan ko. could you help mo on this?

slamat!:)

[Macky_EX]

Kung starting ka pa lang, kahit anong software house pwede na. Take note, hindi para sa lahat ang consulting. I've been a consultant in the Philippines for 2 years and another 6 years here in the US. Although may mga projects na lax, meron din namang mga nanunulit at talagang ibabaon ka sa trabaho. Mas maliit ang pressure kesa regular employee pero mas malaki ang sahod (short term). If you're a long-term thinker, mas maganda ang may regular job (specially yung may mga 401K or profit sharing benefits). I was surprised about the prestige qualification sa paga-apply ng trabaho. Bakit? Sa prestigious company ka nga tapos padrino system naman kaya ka nakapasok o kaya tsamba lang, wala den. Nasasa-iyo yan... ako, I would rather na ako ang magdala ng prestige sa isang bakyang company kesa pumasok sa isang pretigious company na di naman ako nakaka-contribute man lang o hindi man lang mag-stand out. Mas importante ang prestige mo sa sarili mo kesa sa kung saan ka papasok magtrabaho.

Lahat ng software company pare-pareho mapa-SVI, Andersen, RADIX, FiServ, etc. Ang importante yung project na makukuha mo. Mas mahirap at challenging, mas maganda. Hanggat maaga kailangan mong malaman lahat kasi as a consultant wala ka namng maasahang iba pag naa-assign ka sa ibat ibang mga client. Make sure to take down notes and i-document mo lahat ng mga natututunan mo.

Goodluck na lang sa prestigious company mo!

[whitelightning]

Any feedback regarding this company.

1. Growth dev't for their employees lalo na kung fresh grads
2. Culture ng company
3. Mahirap ba interview dito?
4. Starting salary

Thanks..

Would you be interested in a career in sales? Specifically, consultant-sales. Since you are interested in business development, one of your job responsibilities is to meet with clients to discuss their company's IT needs and offer systems or support solutions. You develop corporate relationships and you earn a nice commission if a sale pushes through.

I think my company has an opening for one......

You can always try originalskedz. Iyong una kong job, sinabi nila sa ad nila kailangan may work experience na pero noong nag apply ako tinanggap naman nila ako. Try mo ok dito! Lalo na doon sa mga may experience na try ninyo dito, babayaran talaga kayo kung ano ang past experience ninyo dati.

[ronfindabetajob]

up lang natin tong thread na to...any updates???

[melloncollie]

Any feedback regarding this company.

1. Growth dev't for their employees lalo na kung fresh grads
2. Culture ng company
3. Mahirap ba interview dito?
4. Starting salary

Thanks..

I work here at dB Wizards as a junior consultant. To answer your questions:
1. Growth development for employees here is very high. The company is sensitive to the employees' career path - consultants are deployed to client projects based on their skills. If you don't have the skills needed yet, you will be trained for it. For fresh grads, they undergo a lot of trainings also before being deployed on a project.
2. Culture of the company - most of the people here are bright, young, and hardworking. Employees here are in the range of 23 years old - 29 years old, managers included. Casual atmosphere yet professional.
3. You basically undergo 3 interviews - first with our HR officer, then the Team Lead (Assistant Manager), last will be with our Technology Solutions Director. Interview is not that difficult. You just have to really know what you're talking about and you have to have good communication skills - it's a must in the IT consultancy field.
4. Starting salary for fresh grads is in the range of P10,000 - P12,000, negotiable. It may sound pretty low, but fresh grads who get in as management trainees undergo a lot of trainings, and will learn a lot and fast.

Hope this information helps.

any companies hiring ccna's.....

where do they usually go?

[Macky_EX]

warning lang sa lahat ng gusto mag apply dito sa safeway or cevera, di po kagandahan dito walang nagtatagal na programmer dito, as in! :eyecrazy:

Yup.... totoong walang nagtatagal ng progs sa Cevera (can't speak for safeway).... I came from MISYS before going to Cevera.... DPS-4 ako sa MISYS and hindi ko natanggihan ang offer ng Cevera since it was 175% (not including the night differential) of what I was recieving in MISYS (and MISYS has one of the best benefits around - unlimited SLs anyone?). I'm on my 9th month now and hopefully tumagal naman ako :)

[froshie1]

Macky client mo ba Safeway? baka nagkakabanggaan tayo sa office hehhehe.

[iced_blue]

Aside from accenture what other IT companies accept non-IT graduates for a programmer trainee position?

[froshie1]

RADIX kaso mababa ang compensation..... what they lack on monetary compensation, they make up in live project training experience naman.

[Macky_EX]

Malamang sa elevator tayo nagkakabanggaan..... BPO ako sa Cevera kaya nightshift :( Nakakabaliw..... sana lang makaya ko, sayang din kasi.

[rychu]

Define non-IT. Is it engineering, biology, creative writing... Most IT companies also prefer/hire Engineering/Math majors because of their strong background with Math and logic.

do you have a programmer trainee position for a non-IT/business graduate?

[Blue Zoo]

do you have a programmer trainee position for a non-IT/business graduate?

I'm looking for both a programmer trainee and a technical writing trainee but what would you tell me to prove that you can handle even a trainee position?

Or is your pitch going to be that you have zero starting knowledge but have an intense desire to become a programmer?

[iced_blue]

well I self-studied Visual Basic 6 and I really enjoyed it. Currently I'm studying HTML for web programming. I am really determined to be an IT pro. If I don't find a job in IT within summer then I will definitely get an IT course.

[Pex_Girl]

Why not try Sandstone Technology Phils, Inc. Checkout Jobsdb/Jobstreet for openings. :)

Hmmm... I checked pero IT grad lang yata ang kinukuha nila.

[parttimer]

hi! just saw this thread... what if im more of the business development type??? iv been applying to companies and they immediately place me under their IT Dept with the job description -- programming... I HATE PROGRAMMING!! i revised my resumes so many times in such a way that they wont put me in the same position but no! they still continue to call to ask me if im interested in a programming position! (mukha bang sobrang irritated na?) sobrang frustrating lang talaga... i understand that to be a systems analyst-- or some other related job-- u must understand the code, which is why programming ka muna daw before becoming a systems analyst... pero hate ko talga programming... (sorry naglabas me ng sama ng loob dito :surprised: ) any ideas on what position i can be looking for or a company that i can apply for given my not-so-enviable situation?

thanks for any help!


same here anybody here can offer a job for me im more inclined sa marketing you can ask me to market your system, make me analyze the current system of prospective client and suggest a way in making their system more effective through the use of your company's system, get the requirements of your prospective company in the most simplest and most understandable way for them and yet be able to explain comprehensively to your programmers and even suggest a few code that they could possibly use to create the system that your client needs BUT NEVER EVER MAKE ME PROGRAM! can anybody help me here?

[melquiades]

Malamang sa elevator tayo nagkakabanggaan..... BPO ako sa Cevera kaya nightshift :( Nakakabaliw..... sana lang makaya ko, sayang din kasi.


ano mga opening nyo dyan?

[Blue Zoo]

I'm generally very wary of people who want to be Systems Analysts without passing through the programming stage. To me, that's a sign of someone who either a) doesn't want to put in his work/pay his dues or b) doesn't have the know-how to be a programmer. I wouldn't want to hire in either case.

There are some who insist they are Systems Analysts but not programmers but I find that these types are generally just tech-savvy people who talk a good game but, once you corner them with highly technical concepts and demand specific answers, show their lack of skill.

Because really, if you are sharp enough to be an SA, you should be sharp enough to be a programmer. And if you're sharp enough to be a programmer but didn't want to "do your time" and spend a few years programming, then you're just lazy. Get the logic?

There is however, one route that you can take to bypass programming and go straight to high-level system design but I'm not sure I want to tell anyone of it. If you've read this forum enough though, you'll know what it is ;)

What are some IT companies abroad? Have been thinking lately about this. Please enlighten.

Lexmark Research & Development Corp in Cebu. They send employees to their US headquarters for 3 to 6 months at a time. A Lexmark technical writer friend of mine was sent to the US after only his third day on the job. He was there for 6 months. He has had a total of 10 months US assignments for his 3 years stay in the company. He said some of his fellow techwriters get sent there more often than him. Some have accumulated 12 months US assignments, in their 2nd year of stay in the company.

Talo ka sa amin, may nag-apply as PM citing years of management experience. Upon investigation, where did he get his management experience... Jollibee!

Lakas ng loob niya mag-apply, grabe.

So bottom line, those of you out there that want to go straight into Systems Analysis because you don't like programming, forget about it. Programmers will just hate you, you'll never get anything done and you'll be found out and fired.

But if you can't program, paano na if your client asks you to do a problem-solving demo of the IT product that you are marketing to them? More often than not, you'll be expected to write some code in order to show that the product is suitable to your client's needs.

actually relax lang naman ako sa mga ganung bagay yung babaguhin mo yung code to suit their needs ang hindi ko lang kaya is to start from scratch mas willing ako to program if meron ng codes na i-dedebug or may papalitan ng konti to make it work in a different way wag lang yung maduguang program from scratch yun lang po...

san ba pwedeng mag-aral ng:
Oracle
SAP
JAva

Parang gusto ko kasing mag-aral eh.. :D

[rychu]

For Oracle and SAP, you either invest in studying in Oracle or SAP, or you get hired by a company that trains their employees in those technologies.

As for JAVA, I think this is easier to study alone since the SDK is readily available in Sun's web site and you just need resources (Google is the best resource) to stack up on the experience of coding in JAVA.

Finally, you MUST really want to learn these technologies because it won't be easy. You need patience, patience and more patience when it comes to IT. It's not a walk in the park.

[alleigh_lee]

Computer Professionals Inc.(http://www.cpi.com.ph) provides oracle training for programmer trainee position :)

[zerglings]

bakit mga IT professionals hindi ko nakikita sa Technology Today? hmmmm

[hashpling]

unemployer:

I learned Oracle by doing these:

- downloaded Oracle Database Engine
Oracle 10g Express Edition is free and downloadable at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/xe/index.html

- got a nice Oracle book
Get Thomas Kyte's book, Expert Oracle One-on-One (9i/10g)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1590592433/102-0735225-9184121?v=glance&n=283155

and everyday browse his site at:
asktom.oracle.com

Tom Kyte's book and his site contains better (much better) materials than the ones you'll get from Oracle University/Oracle Training Centers. Enough for you to pass the certification exams.

Hi everyone! Im looking for a job sa IT eventhough I don't have any experience yet! Meron kyang tumatanggap?

[Blue Zoo]

Hi everyone! Im looking for a job sa IT eventhough I don't have any experience yet! Meron kyang tumatanggap?

You mentioned that you had no experience but do you have any IT training?

But even if you don't, certain big companies (Accenture, Proctor, etc.) will take IT trainees based mostly on logical aptitude, work attitude and/or personal demeanor. Your college will also play a big factor in this company's decision and your grades in college.

Finally, the only other way I've seen people with no training make it into IT is just get hired into an IT company (even as a secretary) and learn from the IT professionals there. When someone leaves, which is a given in this field, make a pitch to his boss to give the job to you. Jobs that you can look for to find this "back door" are clerk, executive assistant and the current favorite, document specialist/technical writer (so long as the only thing being looked for by the company are "soft skills", see the tech writer thread in this forum for details).

Some companies like Software Ventures, ADTX and Software Brewers hire entry-level programmer trainees. Starting salaries are low and in some cases, they will ask for an employment bond. But that is really expected, considering that they will be investing in your skills development initially.

Obviously you have a grudge against the company so your opinion is merely just that ... an opinion. Unfortunately, it's not an objective one so the above statements don't bear much weight and credibility. Do you know these things first-hand or are these merely hearsay? Are you still connected with Ingenico?

Makikisabat na lang po..... kasi yung post na binatikos ninyo, mas nakakatulong po kaysa atakihin natin yung credibilidad ng nagsabi.

hi! may alam ba kayong IT company dyan na hindi strict sa dress code? :*)

[xwirex]

I'm quite surprised na sa haba haba ng thread na eto wala ata sa inyo naka encounter about PSIA (Philippine Software Industry Assoc.). If there was someone dito sa thread nag suggest about it then I commend them for being a real IT professional.

Now, bottom line is, kung IT hanap nyo, just go to PSIA (http://www.psia.org.ph) andun lahat ng members nila na most are well known, prestigious, on top of their league and are the forerunners in the IT industry dito sa Pilipinas.

BTW, I came from an IT company (IT Solutions Provider) and worked there for more than 10 years now and if you really are one who is conscious about the IT industry then you should have known this PSIA already. Unless siguro, you're not sure if you are really up to the standards of every IT company.

Good luck sa job hunting nyo.

FYI, if you love development and want to learn try nyo Blastasia, Inc.. Their office is not that pretty and the work is very challenging. Pay is competitive. Overall, once you leave them you can face the world even on your own.

Find a programmer trainee program from IT companies.

A lot of them provides these. Kahit di ka pumasa (which ang pangit naman diba?) you'll get trained better and learn better as well as use your programming skills which will be at par with the quality and standards most IT firms look for.

[onlineguy]

Which IT companies compensate the best? Is there any hope of entering one and being re-assigned abroad?

What is your suggestion for newbies?

http://onlineguy-surviving30daysonline.blogspot.com/

[xwirex]

Nowadays? lahat maganda mag compensate. Question is, do you have what it takes to be provided with that BEST compensation?

IT isn't like call centers where you get trained taking calls and escalate issues when you cannot resolve it. Its about deciding what is the best solution with most of the time no previous reference. Its a minds game there. Programming is the easiest skill there is in IT but logic is what really matters.

It is as simple as... If you know one programming language, can you transfer a program from that language into another non-familiar language? Can you work 24x7 most of the time when projects becomes too tight and you have to pull your own weight for the group? Or better yet, pull your team mates weight together with yours to compensate for the deadline that you need to meet?

:) cheers and good luck if you still want to pursue and have the guts for it.
