Hi Everyone, interesting to see that’s there’s only one bowl here about people from the Philippines! I’ve been in SaaS for the past two years and I look forward to connecting!

Welcome! I have often tried starting filipino communities both virtually and physically. What I have noticed, at least my experience in tech, is that there are either so few of us here, or people just dont want to participate for whatever personal reason. I created this group to give us a safe space to exist, but based on the level of interaction, I dont know if “we” as a community in the corporate world want this.

Interesting. What leads you say “we” don’t want this? I have some ideas flowing through my head and I want you to know I’d like to help grow this community of filipinos in tech. We need to find the ones that do want to help and support each other. We need to stick together!

Happy to see what can be done, and open to your ideas. To be clear i didnt outright say “we dont want this”, I said “i dont know if ‘we’ … want this”, based on all the things i mentioned previously.

Hi Fishes,
Had a very serious query. In my current organization I was not under taxable bracket by any means so I didn't submit any investment declarations or anything. But I'll start a new job in 2 weeks where I'll be under taxable bracket. So will I get a chance to submit my investment declarations in the new company for tds calculations in the middle of the year ? I'm new to everything so would appreciate your help. TIA :)

I've a question on what sections to put on a regular resume. I see some people are using consulting style resume for outside companies as well. Do you think it's a good idea to devide work experience by projets? Or is it better to have "projects highlights" separate from work experience.. something like: intro>functional expertise> project highlights>work experience>education?
