Is the country’s “Sunshine Industry” still shining?

October 29, 2009

With BPO centers continuously being established nationwide, it’s apparent that the call center industry has survived the economic recession. Hailed as the sunshine industry of the Philippines, this sector garnered the attention of job-seekers with its glistening compensation offer.

Short Courses: Shortcut to Employment or Short-Term Solution?

October 20, 2009

Out of all the people you know in the workforce, how many of them are actually working jobs they envisioned they would be doing, or at least jobs which are in any way relevant to their skills and interests?

If you consider the rates of unemployment and underemployment in the Philippines which are at 7.6% and 19.8% respectively, the answer to that might pale in significance. However, on a grander scale, the mismatch of individuals to the jobs they’re working actually has a correlational effect on unemployment.
