Does school really matter?

[nissde]

When I had my first job, the firm I joined was filled with grads from UP, ADMU, DLSU, and UST. Before Accenture grew to its big size nowadays, it was a consulting firm with a presence of around 800 in Manila. I didn't know it was a hard firm to get into. I was hired from the province and I was there standing tall with fresh grads from such known schools. I earned my place there and with work, everything is back to zero so whatever school you came from does not matter anymore.

Kuya kapag po fresh grad applying for their first job napakalaking advantage po kung saang iskwelahan ka nagtapos. Swerte po kayo at nakapasok kayo mangilan ngilan lamang po tayo.

Gaya po ng sinabi niyo puno ng top university grads ang kumpanya. Sila po ang priority dahil wala po tayong work experience ang basehan nila na ay iskwelahan.

Tama po na pagpasok sa trabaho pantay pantay ang lahat. Tila sa pagsusulat ng nagpost ay masyadong bilib sa sarili. Sa pananaw ko po ang mga pinapasahan nitong trabaho ay di akma sa kanyang kwalipikasyon bilang isang fresh grad kaya hanggang ngayon ay hirap makahanap. Sa kalaunan sa mentalidad niya kapag kaya niya panindigan sa trabaho ay malayo ang mararating ng yabang ng batang ito.

Baka nauuna yung yabang nya kaya ayan, sapul sa interview. If he has gone into 50 interviews and never a job offer, there must be seriously something wrong with him. Either he lacks the understanding or he got his head up in his a$$.

^ si ako attitude which I see / observe in so many people I know is a product of low self-esteem. that's how I quantify / measure a new acquaintance. so what is self-esteem?

this is coming from the big man himself, from his book - Donald Trump

Self-esteem is how we feel about ourselves, the way we look, the way we think. There are three ways to build self esteem:
• sense of control and responsibility
• sense of belonging and acceptance
• sense of competence

so if you lack any of those he enumerated, low self-esteem ka, and the usual attitude - si ako, si ako, si ako

The generation of today, too self centered, me, me, me, ... ME!

Most would think everything can be handed to them in a silver platter.

actually naisahan ka nya juts, Atenean yan eh, 50 is the magic number. when you read/heard that he was rejected 50 times, nabile na nya kayo ang nag-comment sa thread, so malamang maging viral na yan. who really what he's after, these scheming Ateneans, I dont trust them at all.

sabi nga ni Brian Tracy, ang una dapat mo i-master eh the fear of rejection, after that the fear of failure. his statistics says for ever 100 tries, 1 lead lang ok na.
pag na master mo na lahat, sigurado na success mo. so ginu-gudaym lang kayo nyan. kasi sya 50 lang, andami nyo na nag-post. ang dapat dyan hindi kayo nag-comment para talaga swabeng-swabeng na ang rejection.

Oo wala talagang kwenta yang mga Atenista na yan. Yuuuccckkk Arrneo!!! 😂😂😂

Pag nagkaanak ako gusto ko tulad mo. San ka ba nagaral para dun ko din papaaralin anak ko?

School has nothing with it. It's the character of the person. These people got it wrong on how to carry the ideals of the school they came from. Many of these "yabang" kids from Ateneo may have forgotten one of the key values taught by the Jesuits - to be men for others.

kids being told they can conquer the world, be the next Zuckerberg

they walk around feeling like the world owes them something

then reality hits them

Not anymore. My wife leads a head-hunting agency, and one of her gripes is that graduates from the top schools mentioned, do not stay long in a specific position. Lipat ng lipat, tapos puro pa reklamo.

Ngayon, she's opening her doors to "other" schools. Most of the time, she gets quality candidates. And when endorsed to clients, come back with positive results.

Juts, these people, these Ateneans, they are very smart and calculating. the monent he wrote that letter / shoutout, alam nya ang backlash nyan but he is willing to undergo pa din why? pero it's really simple because it revolves on one new and intriguing idea, An atenean that got rejected 50 times.

kung ako senyo, don't trust any Atenean. they're very cunning. hindi yan mag-sacrifice ng kahit ng ano, whether it's reputation or a sudden impulse behaviour na walang mas malaking kapalit. the reason why they are so many DDS supporters is because of this people who twisted and played us and even our parents all throughout our young history .

Occam's Razor - immature fresh grad lang talaga siya. 😉
