Paano mag career shift?

[alice_alice]

Hi to all! I am an RN but currently nasa IT field ako specifically in Software Testing.

Like what sis PhamLuis23 mentioned, you can try to apply for a programmer trainee position. May mga companies such as Accenture, Pointwest, Capgemini, Azeus, etc. na willing to train candidates even those not coming from an IT background. This is actually how I got into the IT field even though ang layo ng course ko! 

The advantage of this kind of program is that you are learning while receiving compensation at the same time. Maganda din dahil magiging exposed ka na sa IT industry. I suggest though na habang mas maaga, magbasa na din ng programming basics para at least may knowledge bago sumabak sa training.

Good luck and God bless po sa mga nagbabalak mag shift. Kayang kaya nyo yan mga sis!

Nako gusto ko talaga magshift sa IT kahit na finance grad ako sana nga magawa ko wala talaga ako background masyado basic troubleshooting lang atsaka medyo techie pero programming zero talaga

Til now di ko masunod yung plan to study kahit 2 yr course man lang wala kasi ako money to enroll wala rin ako ipon haaaay naku po.

Mga sis ive been thinking about this din talaga. san kaya maganda magtake ng 2yr IT course? mga how much kaya? I'm a graduate din pero gsuto ko pa din mag aral para naman may mabubuga ako pagdating ng panahon. sobrang hirap na ng buhay ngayon mga sis.

Pano nga ba..ive been thinking about this also..my only problem is i dont know what i really want hay..ive been working for an office for almost 5 years and recently lang..i felt that im not happy anymore..i really want to try other things pero nandun yun fear na what if di ako mag succeed..

TS start at an entry level.  kasi you're shifting so you'll have to start from 0.  but what you have is an advantage since you have more experience on professional culture, politics, etc. other than the fresh grads and most liekly mas marunong ka na dumiskarte in solving your own problems (accountable and responsible) so it won't be difficult for you to rise through the ranks.  good luck!

What happened na kaya sa TS?

I've been meaning to shift my interest to IT since ang laking pera talaga ang makukuha. My boyfriend works as a SysAd, and never I thought he'd be earning good for his role. Usually kasi developers ang may good pay. So lalo akong naenganyo plus I started working for a recruitment consultancy firm as a technical recruiter. So I get to hear IT people's compensation package every day and even offer them their basic pay. Mabilis tumaas ang salary sa IT industry, with the right skill and experience, ibibigay agad sayo ang gusto mo. But in the end, I don't know where to start. Haha.

[whitebishop]

^take certifications or 6 months training on something in IT that you are interested.

[Keiyt]

^ I want Oracle technofogy kaso ang mahal ng training and certification. Oh well, still looking

Same here sis!! IT graduate, hindi ko first choice. I keep up with studying IT up to the bitter end kuno* ... sa umpisa bank ang target ko, sa province lang samin mga teller jobs ganun habang hndi pako nakakapag take ng civil service. ee, d ko nagustuhan yung offer ng rural banks then yung bdo ang tagal ng call or kung mag cacall pa sila. then tumawag yung university at kahit admin staff inaapply ko inoffer sakin ang teaching, kahit kinakabahan ako nag try ako na mag demo at mag exam. ayun unexpectedly nakapasa naman ako, lagi akong puyat nun, gawa ng quizz, mag program, mag grades dedma nalang yung ibang buset na students. mahirap pero worth it in the end. naalala ko ulit yung mga programming language na pinag aaralan namin nung 1st to 2nd year ako.. yun lang nakalimutan ko literally in the process yung php coding skills ko  sguro yung pag seset up nalang at konting basic. kaya after ng end of contract ko hindi na ulit ako naghahangad na makapag woork sa IT industry baka ma reject ako, at nagiging nega na din na iniisip ko kung anong skills maioffer ko

I'm pretty ok with my current job, but I'd like to learn some coding so I can freelance in my spare time. Medyo kulang yung youtube tutorials.

[napolespaloma]

Nice. I admire the path you're in right now. Ako medyo struggling pa, but I'm currently enjoying freelancing. Pero balak ko din bumalik sa isang stable job in the future. I'm just not sure when.

[cathysantiago824]

Freelancing din yung naging part ng career ko ngayon. Actually, ang problem ko lang sa freelancing is client handling and benefits para sa sarili ko kagaya ng ginagawa sa mga corporates.

[whatswithjuly]

hi. been wanting to shift career also. gusto ko ma-try mag business analyst but I dont have background on visual basic and macro. any recommended school for short courses within makati area if possible? thanks sa help.

[geraldita03]

ako naman mga sis...

after graduation I worked in a BPO na so total years ko in the BPO industry is roughly 7 years.. last year I came to a point na ayaw ko na talaga ang mag work sa BPO nakakasuka na talaga....so lakas loob ako mag apply kung saan saan as in...basta huwag lang BPO...now im working in a bank..

I really prayed na sana makakuha ako ng work na hindi na BPO and God answered my prayer..kahit wala akong banking experience they still hired me as an officer.

dumating din ako sa point na down na down ako kasi walang ibang industry ang tumatanggap saakin kasi wala naman akong experience na kahit ano puro BPO lang...

btw im an economics graduate. hindi ko naman practice kasi nga nasilaw ako sa offer ng mga BPO before noong kaka graduate ko palang. kaya super thankful ko talaga was able to change industry kahit na 30 na ako..

ang masasabi ko lang lakasan lang talaga ng loob saka kung decided ka talaga magbago ng industry / career I pursue mo lang...

Good luck sis!

sis nasa bank ka pa din nag work? kumusta so far?
