F. B.

◈ Studied Master in Management
◈ At Holy Cross of Davao College
◈ Graduated 2013

About my college education: I can say that, it is interesting, enjoyable and challenging. Since I'm a Bachelor of Science in Information Management graduate and this is a business related course, I take it interesting. I learn many things about business, the policies in every companies, the rights and benefits that need to be given to every individual and many more.
Enjoyable because the scene is not just a one way process wherein the teacher only talk, instead its the teacher and us students who do the talking. Discussion is so open to the class. Discussion about what really is happening outside/reality was discussed. Challenging because this is not just the ordinary college class that your only aim is to pass and graduate but instead your aim/objective is of course to learn, to share your ideas and again to share what have you learn to your society, to your environment.

he skills required to succeed as a student of this course is you must have the interpersonal skills, analytical, hard working, patient, resourceful, willing to listen and be learned. Also being a creative person is also important in taking this course.

My current job: My current job is a full time MIS (Management Information System) Personnel and a part time college instructor.

Am I using what I learned in college: In my job today, yes I can say that I'm using my learning's during college.
Since MIS means Management Information System, this kind of job is more on Information Management area. I do/work more on computers, systems and others related to computers/systems.
And to relate with my master's degree, I share/teach it to my students.

How long did it take to find a job: After I graduated my Bachelors degree in college, I took 2 weeks to find my job.

Do I recommend studying Master of Management: I will recommend this course in terms of employment opportunities, because as you observe, competition in applying a job this days is so high. In one job, there are 10 -30 applicants competing for the said job. But if you have the other paper/document such as this Master degree, I can say that you have the edge to other applicant. Your paper could catch the interest of the employer.
For your salary it also differ to other. Since you have something that others don't have, it will differ also in terms of salary. Your task/job and position is a little higher compare to other, and also there are things/task that only you can qualify to do.
Most applicant only have their Bachelor degree and other seminars to show, but if you have this course, aside from the diploma and your other seminar to show, there is sill another paper as master to show to your employer.
