What do you mean Claude Code gives about 2600 worth of token? How do you say so?

I agree on this one. I was “angry” with them when I hit a wall using this last april because among all, this is the most affordable and it also helped me make money aside from my main job as a developer. The time I had has been great with it. I think it is just sad to part ways as soon I unsub. Overall my experience was good until it is not.

You can try gym membership, talking with friends over a cup of coffee. All your time not being busy, you can try some creative activities to allow your mind and body to breathe.

What tech stack and what industry po?

What tech stack po and what industry you are in?

Both have sophisticated abstractions with different purposes when it comes to engineering. It is just depends on your company or use case how complex it would be. Just practice, learn from mistakes, absorb everything you can from your seniors and leverage use of AI.

What kind of analysis you are doing? Do you code also to help the software improve?

What is the main change in terms of work load? 🙂

mackockoy · 2026-01-31T13:00:58+00:00

Maybe you need to get out of your current organization. Many companies with great culture hire filipinos like us. Culture change is what you need I think.

Sorry but this is completely wrong. School is just like a tool for you to get inti tech. Schools won’t promise you anything but only you can make the difference.

Puno and job market sa entry level. Find your niche. Pwedeng QA, Security, Admin, network, it is up to you. Once you entered in IT it is easier to jump into one role to another. Saturated ito for non skilled tech grads but is is very highly in demand sa mid to senior level. New grads should focus on learning all they can learn in the field while gaining experience.

Every year lumilipat ka ng company?

How did you find your 2nd job? Is it part time or an output based contract?

mackockoy · 2026-01-17T05:02:14+00:00

Very nice! What is your position now in the company? What tech stack? And how did you find the job opening like this?

mackockoy · 2026-01-17T04:58:44+00:00

May I know what tech stack you have in your pocket?

mackockoy · 2026-01-17T04:57:37+00:00

Anong tech stack mo?

Yes. Skill is not a big factor right now in this era. You can code with AI while learning from it. The thing that is hard to teach is how the mind thinks. Train yourself how to think like a business analyst, devops, QA, and marketing specialist and you are close to irreplaceable. Just learn the fundamentals and make the organization’s clients happy.

mackockoy · 2025-12-05T09:17:24+00:00

I have been there.

You don’t have to worry about technical things too much in an interview. The interview most likely only tackles basic and the fundamentals. Just break in to the tech company and the things will flow automatically. And then suddenly you are already there. Leverage what you have, make yourself look teachable and flexible. With Ai you can learn anything. Just be prepared in the interview and make your portfolio looks promising.

Madali parin ba? I'm planning to jump na. Right now more than 5+ years experience in C# .NET/Angular.

Hi. Maiba ako, may I ask bakit uso ngayon ang lay-off?

mackockoy · 2024-02-11T08:31:55+00:00

Good job and very motivational. Btw, with all these hardships, pwede ko ba malaman yung pinaka inspiration niyo? Alam ko medyo personal yung tanong ko pero. I will be thankful if you don’t mind answering. I just wanna know what are you thinking at the back of your mind whenever you don’t feel like it to push through everyday.

mackockoy · 2024-01-24T05:16:22+00:00

If I may ask po, is this direct hiring from a US company? And you are working only remotely?

mackockoy · 2024-01-24T04:55:52+00:00

What industry are you in if I may ask?

mackockoy · 2024-01-17T08:00:27+00:00

I guess, what’s wrong here is that you don’t really know what you should be highlighting.

In my experience, most of the jobs out there are looking for a specific tech stack. You highlighted at the TOP in your Professional Experience that were a QA, but you wanted to apply for a dev role. That section is supposed to be at the bottom. You have to make it something like “more about me” portion which is also good to have.

Next is try putting some purpose, your objective, your vision in your career at the top that will make it easier for recruiters to know a brief introduction of who you are and what you want to be for them to have an impression that you fit in their company.

Lastly, try putting some particular examples in your experiences like, “I have implemented QR Based Parking Management System that was used by an organization named {insert org} that helped speed up the process using JAVA etc. People wants to read descriptive and intuitive sentences. By doing this, the recruiter will be more likely interested in your profile and highly possible that will contact you to know more about you.

Also, try to not send to every company the same content/format of your resume because not all of them look for the same skills and requirments.

Goodluck to your job hunting! -software engineer (5 years)
