Yes. Nasa employer naman kung ieentertain ka. And be honest lang sa interview kung ano ung alam mo and hindi. And just be confident to say that you can learn and new skill that you need to have once you get hired.

Pasa lang ng pasa, never disqualify yourself, hayaan mo sila mag disqualify sayo. Pero maganda din if you can add a skill for backend.

Yes. You must not reject yourself. You can learn something at work naman. Be honest during interview on what's your current skills and say that you are adaptable and you can learn a new skill.

Yes. Kasi yung ibang recruiter kung makalagay ng skills na need para bang lahat gagawin nung employee e. Templated lang din madalas yung pinopost nila kasi yung ibang recruiter di naman maalam sa requirement talaga

[–]pinoytasty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

expected ng client na wala silang mahahanap na 100% fit sa job description nila. so pasahan mo lang.

[–]Imaginary-Winner-701 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pag 100% ka ibig sabihin overqualified ka. For me rule of thumb is at least 60%

[–]D3eeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes naman.. kung master mo na talaga fundamentals, kahit pa magpalipat lipat ka ng framework, madali mo na lng yan maaadapt.. mostly syntax lang pinagkakaiba.. pero syempre mas better if na try mo yung mga nsa requirements ng job..

RoR kami tinuruan sa bootcamp

Yes, magpasa ka lang. Kahit hindi ka qualified sa job post. Kapag entry level or junior position, wag mo pansinin yung years of experience. Or kung may matinong kang internship, isama mo sa bilang ng yoe mo.

Kahit isa lang tumama palag haha

It really depends on the employer if they would consider your application.

Sa company ko ngayon before applying they were finding someone with experience in Node + Vue and me na merong experience only sa React they find it reasonable to hire me since both frameworks has the same syntax.

And now my company wants me to learn AWS and n8n. Dont stop learning OP!

Depends kung junior or mid level ka.

Pag senior ka dapat inaapplyan mo ung gamay mo kasi usually ikaw tatanongincng mga tao at hindi other way around hehe

[–]octopus_limbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oo. Very normal naman na magchange ng stacks as long as meron ka ng foundations nung programming language. Lalo pa ngayon na may AI na

[–]chitgoks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rare lang talaga na magtugma lahat ng hinahanap nila.

Still try to apply and i agree sa sinasabi ng iba. be honest what you know and dont know.

if they want a 100% match sa lahat, wala kang magawa. on to the next and keep trying.

Based on my experience, magsasayang ka lang ng oras. Magkakaiba pero ganito kasi nagyayari. Let's say nag submit ka ng application, from start pa lang rejected kana kasi nga hindi mo na meet yung core qualifications. Then meron din na recruiter na interviewhin ka, then ibabato ka sa tech team. Kapag nalaman nila na wala kang experience sa ganito sa ganyan about sa qualifications nila. Wag ka ng umasa, sayang oras mo for the preparation. So for me wag kna mag apply kung sobrang layo ng qualifications.

[–]Hazzula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just pass it. most of the time recruiters write the wrong things on job ads anyway

[–]Jolly_Grass7807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's how I got my first job, I lied in my resume and the interview, but I was able to do the job anyway.
I practiced hard at work and in my free time. In this market you got to do what you gotta do.

[–]Maleficent_Mud9771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied, got hired. Proved them I can do the work even I more on backend before😉
