Teamwork, Adaptability & Gratitude: Essentials for Letran's future Global Filipino Professionals

NOV 18, 2022

As the PTC's Talent Acquisition Group (TAG) continues to work proactively with schools to pave the way for opportunities for future Global Filipino Professionals, Letran's Career and Placement Services Unit (CPSU) invited representatives from PTC to its Career Mentoring & Mock Job Interview Sessions.

The sessions were conducted from November 14 to 18 and included a 10-minute virtual mock job interview and career mentoring session via GMeet. This gave a chance for the PTC Group's Mark Hernandez, HRBP, Shipping Cluster, and John Karlo Rosin, HRAD, Constellation Travels, Inc. to participate and promote their respective business units with the participating students.

"Giving back to the community, including our partner universities, is such a great joy to participate in. I fondly recall how I started in this career, as a young and ambitious fresh grad trying to compete to earn a living," said Mark.

Activities such as this aim to equip and empower students with the knowledge and skills required to land a job. Around 400 graduating students from different colleges participated in the event.

"In today's workplace, clearly there is a shortage of talents and there are various reasons why: from resignations to the effects of this pandemic and more. This is clearly a way to check untapped groups of young talent who can be valuable assets to any of the PTC business units in the future," added John.

Mark wrapped up by citing a very important takeaway for the graduating students he interviewed. "As graduating students who will soon embark on a new journey, you have to show your would-be employers the following competencies: T-Teamwork/A-Adaptability and G-Gratitude!"
