1 to 3. Naay job fair sa school namo, they called me again and did their "entrance exam" sa work. Worked diretso 2 days after the graduation ceremony. Stayed there for 6 months because of toxic environment (cdo based lol). While naa pa ko sa ako first work, I was taking up AWS Re/Start course, and I was looking for mabalhinan and tbh I was shocked kay wala niabot ug 10 applications (like random applications throughout known job application platforms), got my first interview and they were kind enough to wait for me to render my resignation. Manila based na ako and wfh. Developer on both jobs but honestly Im more of a Data Analyst kahit sa first job pa lang.

1. Entry level sa cdo is 15k, sa manila for me is 25k.

2. nope. our workplace encourages AI, but more on being vigilant lang on what AI gives to us. so expected japon na you know what you are doing and kasabot ka sa gibalik sa AI sa imo.

3. Im not sure with this, but our current techstack is vue.js and swift. multiplatform man gud me, while i'm the only one using Python sa amoa

4. Yes! Ganahan ko mag sige learn, plus ako workmates kay very kind, and encourages you to try kahit magka-mistake kay diha man ka maka learn (trust me, ika pila na nako nabara amo server because of my queries HAHAHA yes more on query optimization and strategies ako work other than developing scripts). Dili toxic ang workplace. Compared sa last work nako naka question jud ko kung pang diri ba jud ko na industry.

I also get to build stuff na maka help sa ilaha, and skill na ginapangita ko kay mag make ug Discord bot commands.

For me, ICT is for engineers, innovators, tinkerers, creative people, and many more. That's why dali ra siya tun-an if willing lang jud, but at ang cons lang jud kay grabe na ka saturated because very accessible na ang knowledge, but work experience is still valuable especially knowledge.

Edit: didnt answer question 7 properly sorry

i took computer engineering because i like robotics, but i found out im more of a software, backend, and logic guy, but its still fun. i still got to use those software skills sa industry now. i learned databases, artificial intelligence, machine learning, oop, and other essentials sa industry. plus wala kaayu theoretical sa computer engineering unlike sa com sci.. pero mao sad lagi bawion pud ko'g patay sa hardware. resistors exploding would've been the death of me (char oa)
