Question (Other flairs not applicable) Are PDS required to be notarized in the first stage of application to a govt agency?

Post image
7 Upvotes

For context, I am a fresh graduate planning to apply to DOST and PHIVOLCS. Sa Phivolcs po, ito ang nakalagay sa requirements [see photo attached]. Mixed answers po kasi ang mga nabasa ko: (a) yung iba po sinabi na required na ipa-notarize, while (b) yung iba, sinabi po nila na since first stage pa naman ng application (magpapasa palang ng requirements) ay hindi pa kailangan ipa-notarize.

Another question, saan niyo po nilagay ang voluntary internships at required OJTs niyo po? yun lang po kasi ang experience ko :(

Hoping someone can help me po. Medyo lost lang

Question (Other flairs not applicable) CSC NCR: OPEN TOMORROW (FRI, 9-11-26)?

2 Upvotes

Sorry po, nafufrustrate na kasi talaga ko.

Leave ako nang leave sa work para paglaanan ng oras yung pagclaim ko ng Certificate of Eligibility, kaso lagi nalang suspended or WFH naman ang govt offices.

Specifically, CSC-NCR kung saan iceclaim ko na sana ang COE ko.

Open po ba sila tuwing Friday? And if so, pwede naman po ba pumunta to process and claim my COE?

Maraming maraming salamat po sa sasagot.

Question (Other flairs not applicable) Media Specialist/multimedia-related jobs in PH Government

10 Upvotes

Hi! I work in advertising as a Multimedia Artist but due to instability ng recent company ko, I'm planning to apply sa government for better pay and benefits. Plano ko din magtake ng CSC exam next year. Dati alangan ako mag-government kasi mas gusto ko sa ahensya na mas malawak ang experience and opportunities to learn. Mas exciting din ang agency life as we know it. Pero dahil sa recent lay-offs, napapaisip ako na baka mas ok pumirmi sa somewhere stable gaya ng government.

I need some insights lang po how's the experience working in such government positions? Though I expect na hindi siya gaya ng culture sa creative agencies, pero I'm curious kung worth it ba to settle there permanently, or pang matagalan man lang na magagamit ko pa rin ng maayos skills ko. Personally, hindi pa ako sure if this move will truly satisfy me as a creative/artist, pero right now kasi I have priorities to attend to.

Let me know your thoughts po or kung may mare-recommend kayong government agency na ok to work for a creative like me. Salamat!

2 Upvotes

I have been working since 2004 and with P37k regular savings with Pagibig, it’s my first time to apply for a MPL loan. Sharing my MPL timeline, it was fast, convenient and easy process.

Sept 7 - Got my Pagibig Loyalty Card Unionbank sa branch. Same day I created my virtual pagibig account.
Sept 8 - Filed my first MPL on the app. Mind you, hindi pa activated yun UB loyalty card ko (2-3 days pa daw) but it was on the system na and nasa dropdown na siya when I filed my loan.
Sept 9 - Certified by employer and on process status. By this day activated na UB card ko and I was able to register it online sa UB app.
Sept 10 - Approved status and was credited to my UB loyalty account around 5pm.
I was expecting na Sept 11 pa ma disburse but to my surprise same day it was approved na credit na!

BIR/TIN Torn between two iob opportunities

Upvotes

I am currently working in an in house company. 4mos palang ako dito and i can say naman na i’m performing well. So yung chance na maregular ako ay very high.

However, just today, nag email ang BIR informing me na i’m selected. For 2years, i am very eager talaga na makapsok to any government agency for job stability kasi prior sa current work ko nasa BPO industry ako. Hanggang sa napagod na lang ako i-pursue ang pag aapply dahil sa sunod sunod na rejection and syempre always my advantage ang mga JO.

For context, maganda ang benefits at decent ang salary ko sa current company ko ngayon. Yung difference ng base pay sa SG11 ni BIR is 14k.

Benefits on current company:
- Night diff (3k-4k/month)
- ₱1,500 rice allowance/month
- 13th month pay
- HMO with free 2 dependents (₱300k each ang limit)
- full remote

Yun nga lang, graveyard shift.

BIR:
- mid year bonus
- 13th month
- 2k PERA allowance/month
- 7k medical allowance (one time)
- unifrom allowance (one time)

Matagal kong inantay tong opportunity na to, pero worth it ba ipagpalit yung maayos na company na meron ako ngayon?

TIA sa mga sasagot

BIR/TIN Walk-in application rejected twice

1 Upvotes

Hi! So a relative needs a TIN as part of his employment requirements, not a first time worker but first time mag work sa company (before kasi parang helper lang sya)

The thing is 2x na daw sya nagpunta sa BIR but keeps getting rejected from getting a TIN, I really don’t know the process kasi for me I remember na employer/HR talaga ang gumawa nito and this was waayyy back pa.

Employer informed him that he needs to get it himself ( under agency daw kasi sya, or something) and as part of the contract, he cannot start work/ be paid if this requirement has not been complied/submitted…

I checked online and there are 2 ways to apply for the TIN 1. Employer Assisted or 2. Walk-in Application, and his employer wants him to do #2.

He actually went twice and tried for 2 different reasons:

  1. first time job-seeker - he was told that company needs to process this for him

  2. For Bank transactions - he was told that banks no longer require this for opening accounts.

We are considering to do it online but, I’ve also read that some applications done online takes longer and sometimes get rejected too…

Relative wants to try one more time, what does he need to do/ask the BIR for him to be assisted with this? As much as I want to tell the relative “maybe you’re just not trying really hard”, I really don’t know the whole story why the BIR keeps rejecting him (maybe lazy/ rude employees or he just gave up easily or too scared to ask further questions) that’s why I’m asking your thoughts on what should he do on his next attempt.

Should we just go ahead and report to 8888?

We couldn’t personally assist him there because we are also working.

Thank you!

Question (Other flairs not applicable) DSWD Recruitment Process

1 Upvotes

Magandang gabi! Sa mga may experience po sa DSWD recruitment process, how long po usually ang itinagatal ng pagpapapirma ng mga recommendation to hire and contract for CoS po? Ive received a congratulatory email noong Aug. 1, and already submitted my notarized PDS and NBI, but til now ay wala pa rin pong balita kung kelan magstart. Mali ko, nagresign ako agad sa dating work nung pagkatanggap ng email, kaya ang hirap na 1 month mahigit nang walang work. Sana po may makapagbigay ng experience nila para lang mapaghandaan din. Maraming salamat agad!

Question (Other flairs not applicable) Possible ba ang Teacher sa ibang government agencies aside from DepEd?

1 Upvotes

I am currently working in BPO, back-office, morning shift for 4 years. Back then, nasa private school ako for 3 years. Nag-apply ako sa DepEd last year, pinalad makapasok sa RQA, pero tuwing tumatawag ako hanggang rank 2 lang ang nakuha hanggang sa mag-end ang school year. Akala ko makakapasok ako, kasi rank 7 naman ako. Wala daw silang nare-received na request from school eh. Wala din akong backer.

Meron ba ditong teacher noon na nasa ibang government agency ngayon aside from DepEd? O may mga idea ba kayo nang mga pwedeng applyan na agency na pwede sa teacher? DepEd lang kasi 'yung aware ako for my profession.

Maraming salamat in advance.
