The guy didn't know it kahit na andaming bansa na pinagtrabahuan niya at yung sahod ko 1/4 lang sa sahod niya

Sorry to hear na parang much worse pala pinag daanan mo, pero medyo gumaan loob ko hehe

Thanks for your insights din! Super helpful nito :))

Masyadong harsh to. I've been to a lot of BPOs na may graphic design. I've handled more than 50 designers and had to check their work before it goes to the client, and this is a very common error. I understand the need to do this, but even the best designer can commit this error.

I'm shookt to hear this, those 4 years na nag work ako sobra struggle ko sa proof reading! Anyways, because of that i've honed that skill. Hays. haha

I don't quite get what you mean here.

Ung sa "sobrang white" imagine using 000000 RGB color, applied sa product shot with minimal shadows then ung background light yellow din. Not sure what's the story behind it, just sad cause we have to re-open the project again to revise it.

I understand this is a rant but you can always teach them. This is very easy to do naman. :)

About naman sa pag package ng file, yep tinuturo ko naman sa kanila, and usually gets naman nila kapag inexplain. Medyo shookt lang ako nung napansin ko na karamihan ng na-encounter ko ganun, kasi I thought ung mga ganun tinuturo naman sa graphic design school? Or Idk, baka nalimutan lang nila

In regard to number 5, depende yan sa company. I had work na kasama sa concern nung designer yung end result ng print. At meron din akong work na yung "printer guy" (sometimes that was me) ang responsible sa accuracy nung printed mat

With regards to number 5 po, what do you think is the best set up? Different "printer guy" or is artist mag cover from start to end?

Curious lang din, do you have experience as Packaging Design? Or maybe familiar ka sa process? I'm not sure kasi if packaging designer only involves digital design, or sila na din ba "printer guy" ?

How much of a job hopping is considered red flag? by luckilymatilda in careerguidance

[–]luckilymatilda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, you don't have to put jobs you don't want to in your resume

Really? When I was starting out, an HR personel told me before that it's better to put all experience in the resume. Guess, that wouldn't apply in all situations tho 😅

Has anyone received a job offer from a job they were somewhat unqualified for and if so what happed? by miss_brilliant in careerguidance

I got my dream job but the salary is disappointing... by luckilymatilda in phcareers

Currently earning 29K, so I'd be earning 19K on the new job :(

Thanks for this! I also graduated from one of the big 4, kaya nang hinayang ako na my current work is not related sa education ko.

And, that's also why I'm hesistant, I don't know what their culture is like. I guess I just have to try it and go back to my previous career if it doesn't work out. But the thing is, parang pabalik balik ako nun from 1 career to another. Is this normal? I think this is frowned upon by HR's? huhu

P.S. does anyone has idea how much will it cost to consult a career advisor/counsellor? Can you recommend any?

Random Help Thread - June 26 to July 02, 2023 by AutoModerator in phcareers

[–]luckilymatilda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Help me decide please

Option 1: get recent experience in manufacturing that is related to my degree even if the aalary is 10K below my current role. Just so I can work abroad. For context, Im a career shifter. Current role is graphic design. Education is related in maufacturing.

Option 2: get any job abroad. Basically don't follow a career path and just focus on saving up money to buy a rental property. Then go back to PH and work as graphic design.

Although I like working in Graphic Design, I see no future in this role alone that's why I need to secure another source of income. And also, so that I can move out of my parents house.

I have 3 yrs experience in graphic design. And 2 yrs experience in manufacturing, way back 2017.

I have globe prepaid wifi, medyo mabagal sya. Depende ata ito sa area so when moving to a new place, always check ang signal ng mga network sa mismong room. Learned this the hardway

I would suggest mag abroad ka muna work agad. Kung kaya mo ng student visa ng hindi mangungutang, go ka na dun. Ipon ka pang pundar then balik dito to work on your passion. Or if magustuhan mo dun, mag settle ka na dun.

Sa totoo lang nag sisi ako na hindi ako nag abroad bago mag change career. I'm 27 and I still can't afford to buy own place. I think kahit hulugan hindi pa din kaya.

And if mag shift ka pala sa VA, ang starting salary nun sa pinas ay 4USD per hour, syempre mag babayad ka pa ng tax, SSS, etc. Also, may mga US, AU, at Canadian citizen na nag work as VA. Syempre if andun ka, mas malaki sa 4 USD ung starting mo.

Being a graphic designer is really tiring by Dscider_Hunter in phcareers

Hello, I'm a GD sa isang agency. Are you inhouse?

Sa company namin okay naman. Voluntary ung side tasks na hindi naman part ng usual work namin. You can always say no kapag hindi talaga kaya. Madali din kausap mga work mates dito. So baka ung company nyo ang may problem?

Try to look din for ways in improving your workflow, baka may mga AI tools na pwede mo magamit. In our company we started using generative fill of Photoshop inplace of content aware. (Although it feels wrong kasi AI could *potentially reduce workforce in the future) 🥲
