Globe Field Trip


Globe Telecom is the leading telecommunications company in the Philippines, and we were fortunate enough to have a glimpse of how this organization works. This field trip is the most educational trip that I have had so far. I have learned a lot about what really goes on inside a company, and the role that IT has.



I was really amazed to find out that everything we have studied at DLSU, we really can apply in the real world! Our speakers have mentioned a lot of terms that I am familiar with because of our subjects. In a way it was some kind of assurance for us that our school has really trained us and introduced us to the fundamentals of our profession.



The speakers talked abut the organization, the processes that company applies, they also gave us tips on how to be appealing to employers skill-wise. Their discussions were so in-depth and really gave us an idea on what to expect when we graduate and finally land a job. 

This was the first time for me to really see an IT in action in a company. This is when I realized that there really are a LOT of departments in IT! There are so many career paths to choose from, and this helped me with deciding which path I will take when I graduate.
