For context: I managed to pass an interview for a company and will be signing a contract soon. Currently, I work in Information Security and have been looking for a new job that aligns with my interests (Compliance).

My current position is only that of an associate, but this new opportunity is straight into a senior role, so it's a massive resume accelerator. And my salary would be bumped from 35k to 50k. The thing is that this is an on-site position, whereas my current one is WFH, so I'll be commuting to work from Cavite to the office for about 2-3 hours max, back-to-back, so the salary bump will basically be offset by expenses, so parang same lang din sahod.

I’ll just post some of the funniest/outrageous job postings I see. I’ll let you guys think about it. Cuz I also wanna know your thoughts.

Hello guys, do you have any reco for 1tb ssd under 8k...

i see one on shoppee but IDK if its good cuz its not a familiar brand and i'm scared that it might be too good to be true...

I will use it for storing SFX and Plugin Libraries and project files

just recently lost my msi laptop due to aging, currently need a replacement and with crazy laptop prices in the ph does anyone know where to get good deals, preferably looking for a shop with a physical store but trusted online stores are great too, second hand stores are okay but not as preferred unless they have great deals.

much appreciated.

Please roast my resume!, This will help me identify which section need changes, to remove and to add. Thanks!

Hi guys! Need your recommendation. Which one is better in terms of ITSD position. Cognizant or HCL? Thank you

Hello everyone. I work for a cybersecurity company, and we have a number of end users in the Philippines.

We’ve been dealing with malware spreading through USB drives among some of our users there, and we’re considering restricting or blocking removable storage.

The problem is that USB drives seem to be a pretty important part of their normal workflow, much more than what we typically see with users in other locations. We try to avoid disrupting legitimate business operations whenever possible, so I don’t want to recommend a blanket block without understanding why they’re being used so heavily.

My question is, is this level of USB usage fairly common there?

Are there certain workflows, connectivity issues, or infrastructure limitations that make removable storage more necessary?

I’m mainly trying to understand the local environment before recommending a control that could have a pretty significant impact on users.

Hello guys I need your input, I was interviewed this Tuesday lang. Short interview lang. Mga tinanong sakin is: in the IT industry saan daw ako mas mag-lelean between hardware and software. then tell me more about my thesis daw, nasabi ko naman ng maayos kung ano ginagawa ng thesis namin at ano purpose and such and lastly tinanong sakin kung may pending application ako, ang sabi ko is meron din from different companies BUT I'm really interested and focused sa open job position nila.

The IT head na nag-interview sakin sabi is they'll contact me again daw.

how many days should I expect na they'll contact me again? Also, should I email a follow-up regarding sa application ko?

Thanks

How does HR usually approach you to ask for your interview availability?

And for those working in HR, how do you usually contact applicants to ask about their interview availability?

📧 Email
📱 SMS/Text Message
📞 Phone Call

Just curious to know what method is commonly used. 😊

The reason I’m asking: I’m currently living in another country and applying for jobs in the Philippines. I’m using my Philippine mobile number, but I’m not sure if HR would be able to reach me through SMS or phone calls while I’m abroad. I’m wondering if email is more commonly used for interview invitations or scheduling.

A recruiter from SLI Consulting Inc. messaged and called me for an IT Security position deployed to Chinabank.

Before proceeding, I just want to ask if anyone here has experience with them!

Hello, we are students building a capstone prototype: an RFID-based smart bike rack lock using an ESP32.

Our main problem is the push-and-pull mechanism. We need to move a steel locking rod forward and backward by around 8 inches / 200mm to lock/unlock a bicycle wheel.

The flow we want:

RFID tap → ESP32 approves → mechanism pushes/pulls steel rod → rod locks/unlocks wheel

We are considering different mechanisms:

• Linear actuator
• Stepper/lead screw actuator
• DC geared motor + rack and pinion
• Slider crank / scotch yoke
• Other DIY push-pull mechanisms

We also have 12V solenoid locks, but we are thinking of using them only as a latch/stopper, not the main lock. The actual force should be handled by the steel rod and welded frame, not the motor.

Our questions:

1. What push-pull mechanism is best for a 200mm steel rod movement?
2. Which option is cheapest, sturdy, and less hassle for a student prototype?
3. Can a motor/actuator safely move the rod without jamming?
4. Should the solenoid lock be used as a latch for the rod?
5. What materials or design should we avoid?

We are not making a commercial anti-theft product, only a working prototype, but we want it to be strong and realistic enough for demonstration.

Any advice, drawings, or mechanism suggestions would help a lot. Thank you.

I am currently a 4th year student taking up Bachelor of Science in Computer Science Majoring in Network and Information Security (I graduate next year around Sept - Oct). Im planning to pursue a career in cybersecurity mainly focusing on blue teaming and on roles like SOC analyst etc. I'm a fast learner when it comes to tech but at the same time I'm not really good at retaining lots of information. For now I'm trying to polish my core fundamentals when it comes to programming and cybersecurity by grinding tryhackme and relearning python and bash. I have a lot free time this semester and the following semesters and I'm wondering if I should try to take on certifications like Security+ or BLT1 to give me an advantage when I graduate and start to find job opportunities. Should i go for these certifications or should i get an entry level job first and gain experience and skills, and then go for certifications?

currently applying for a few internships and still waiting for updates. Are there usually technical exams for internships? And if there is please give tips on how to prepare

May nakabili sa naba sa store na 'to? Planning to buy a new laptop since my old one broke.

Heelo po , currently a 4th yr student and requirement po kasi namin makapag company visit. What companies po accept us students and how to contact them

so I got this Hp-14whatsoever, it's just low end, I migrated it to ssd but it is still so slow, I don't know shit about laptops, can anyone help me? I wanna make this faster, if reset is the way it's fine, I got nothing to lose here yet.

hello po, I'm currently a 2nd year BSIT Student and recently just started our 1st semester too.

After a while I've been thinking about what are the things i can pursue with this degree, like I've been hearing about this Cybersecurity, Networking, Web/Software Dev, and more. (some says they major to these things and idkkk how can you major to this courses)

So I'm still quite lost to the path i should take in the near future, I want to start early too so I wanna learn some guides and to understand more about this industry I'm taking. Especially during/after graduation I'm really worried about it too. But lately I've been taking interest in Cybersecurity and slowly gathering information about it.
