How I Got a Programming Job as an AVERAGE Student in the Philippines

In this video I share with you how i became a full stack developer and got a programming job as an average student.

During my college, I am the type of student that only go with the flow, no plans for the future, waste a lot a time and going to the school just for the sake of attendance. But despite of this act I became what I wanted to become now and that was because of pandemic and for this reason I am thankful it happened

Hi guys! Sharing my story, I'm a 2nd year computer science student na nag stop. Currently working for Digital Impulse as a full-stack web developer and doing back-end development on Upwork. It's not as bad as they say it is! Kayod lang ng kayod study hard and even without a degree you'll land a job. Lalo nat may degree ka!

Grades do not define your true worth, many students feel like they’re not smart enough or don’t have talent, but that’s not the full picture, think about it this way, a bottle of water costs 15 pesos at a store, 50 pesos at the movies, and 100 pesos at a fancy restaurant, the price isn’t about the water itself but it is all about the context, your value is not determined by a single report card, you might just need to find the right place where you can truly shine, just keep searching and believe in yourself that you can do it

Just wow! I've been searching youtubers na gagawa ng contents about how hard the life is, lalo na kapag nakikipaglaban sa reality. I'm a Grade 11 PUP student na nagbabalak kumuha ng Computer Engineering sa college pero ang daming factors na humahadlang sa akin and that is the reason kaya ako naghahanap ng mga motivations about this tech course. I really found your contents useful specially sa lahat na ibinabahagi mo relate ako. Padayon!

As an incoming 3rd year Cpe student, I really was at the point na confused na and feeling what I have been doing in school is not enough for me to attain a good career lalo na sa programming. This video really wakes up my tired self, and it made me realize that there still along way and enough time for me to work on things, enhance my skillset, create portfolio. Thank you sir for giving us such valuable inputs and advices.

4th year CpE student here, it really sucked that my college education started with the COVID pandemic. I learned through online classes but that was not enough. There were some gaps of knowledge especially on the hardware side. I barely know anything hardware other than knowing how to just code an Arduino and do simple circuitry. Just like you, I've taken an interest and chosen a path of being web developer. Just like what you've said, there are lots of ways to learn since there is the internet but without discipline and ways of learning efficiently it will be hard.

Thanks for the great video as I am currently finding ways to inspire myself. Kuddos to you for achieving your dream and having a start to a successful life. 🙌

as a IT graduating student super helpful nang gan'tong motivational video. 3rd batch ng SHS and 1st batch ng covid, sobra akong na distract and sobrang nawalan nang gana, hindi ko alam kung itutuloy ko pa ba pero hindi pwedeng hanggang doon lang ako. I need to move forward and motivate myself to do more. Now, hinaharap ko yung pinakaayaw ko haha ayoko maging data analyst but here I am applying for DA position and hopefully matanggap ako, i know na hindi madali lahat at may kanya kanya tayong timeline kaya don't rush things, enjoy your own time and kapag ready ka na and you're free to do whatever you want and chase that dream.

I'm glad I came across this vid. Gustong-gusto ko na sumuko kasi wala akong laptop and I end up wasting my time laying around doing nothing. This is just the motivation I needed to get back on track. Thanks lodii!

junior web dev here! g10 student na hahaha, started learning programming and web development at the age of 12

Pandemic was the greatest equalizer talaga. Daming opportunity nagbukas. They say 2022 when the global economy is thriving again that was the best year to go abroaf for Filipinos because of the high demand. 2021-2022 was the best year for online job seekers.

I'll be a 4th year college student this coming august. I feel like the pressure is slowing creeping in. I'm glad that the algorithm brought me to your vid. ❤

[jakecaday]

thanks for this content, somehow eased my mind on pursuing the dream of mine. a lot of things have been bugging me about pursuing architecture e, kesyo mababa raw sahod even when you're licensed and stuff like that. all these coming from me who is just a shs graduate who haven't even faced the path of the architecture world. all in all, thanks for this content, ang inspiring

"...ang wala lang ako ay ang SIPAG para magsimula" i feel this line. Gagraduate na ako but parang wala pa rin akong maipagmamalaki because of katamaran. Nakasurvived nalang ako sa college nang 'di ko na namamalayan. I don't have the consistency if may ginagawa ako, sumusuko nalang ako agad but when this video comes, bigla akong namomotivate and want na magsimula ulit. I think this is a sign huhu

[xorznbleach]

Currently Grade 10 here, and i wanna pursue computer science, i'm currently freelancing for like 20-100$ per project (coding java), and ofc my clients are from overseas, i hope its a good sign that i can pursue computer science.

Kudos to you bro. Keep it up, laban lang tayo!

[kurtdecena]

Im so excited
This coming august, 4rth yr nako and excited nako sa na proposed kong research title 😊 , excited kasi ako programmer nila, ako dn gagawa ng prototype at ako dn leader nila haha. Pero sa papers hindi ako ganon kagaling so iaasa ko sa member ko yun .
Ilove watching video like this na nakaka motivate sa journey ng magiging computer engineer because this is my dream to achieve this title. Salute to you for documentation ng iyong journey, im planning din gumawa ng mga ganto tulad ng sa iyu. See you around.

Motivation ang mag aangat sau sa pangarap pero double edge sword to. Kasi kpag nawala na ung motivation mo, tatamarin at pang hihinaan kna ng loob.

Currently a 1st year CpE student, this is so inspiring po. As a shy/introvert student i alwys belived na i just need to do it with my actions kasi bat kapa magsasalita kung nakikita nmn ng iba ung ginagawa mo. But, may katuloy pa pala "Actions speak lowder than words, But withouth words you cannot prove your acctions" hits me. Bigla ko'ng na realize na its is exactly true "ginagawa ko nmn un, magaganda at malinis nmn mga gawa ko, pero parang kulang parin ang pansin nla sakin. Am I not worthit" this is where I realize commonicatons where important. So my goal this 1st year of college is to pass and be sociable. Thankyou po kuya!

I secured my Career on my 3rd year college level (2021)

Nag set ako ng roadmap based sa tech demand
Nag Self Study for Web Development and Software App
Then Nag NC3 ako para malaman kung tama yung mga inaaral ko bali dalawang TESDA
Ui/UX Design para hindi ma judge yung mga output ko
Coding Structure para sa mga Technical Interviewer
Gumawa ng Portfolio with massive sample work and output
English Communication Skills para makapasa sa mga Initial Interviews




This 2024 50k++

I think sa pinas okay pa ang mga IT/CS courses for now, but in other countries like Canada or North America in general, hindi na masyado viable as it is way too competitive na and it is being outsourced in other countries.

I finished IT with honours in college, most of my courses were programming. My favourite course was Data Structures and Algorithms as it really challenged me and helped me become a better programmer.

Most of the courses I took were programming related and I'm confident with my skills but it's been over 1-year na since nag graduate ako still no job offers padin in the SD/IT field. I know that there are more opportunities online, but I'm an onsite kind of persom as I hate staying at home for work 😂

I've decided na I'm gonna go back to college again to study something else, and my tip to the people na mahina pa sa computer programming logic is mag ask ng questions if you don't understand something and make sure you understand programming fundamentals well. I had friends na they didn't know programming fundamentals and nahirapan sila for the rest of the course ng sobra 😂

I guess discipline is the secret here
