Have you ever got the feeling of getting ignored when you apply for a job because you graduated from this school? Me? Nah. I studied at University of Mindanao and I am confident about my school’s credibility when it comes to quality students. Our ex-vice mayor Louis Bunguyan and my parents both graduated also from my university too. Its not the university you graduated at that matters to me. What matters to me is skills you have to do your work.

I’ve heard some companies here in Davao prioritizes applicants from a specific school here. A good school but expensive, and I think that is not fair. If you’re perfect for the job, no matter what school you are, you should be hired there. That should companies here be thinking.

So don’t be afraid to stand out no matter what university you graduate from. Be proud and prove them you deserve to be hired. I’ll be applying soon, but don’t know where yet. Heh.
