So good afternoon po
I’m a student from Our Lady of Peace School from Antipolo City
And for our project this quarter
We were asked to interview about your experiences
As a person with
With a
A course that
I would like to take
Which you
You are
Your course was computer science, yes?
Yes.
So I
I would just like to ask you questions about your
experience in your career
First
Would you like to introduce yourself.
I’m David ---- San Juan 00:43
I graduated Computer Science in Polytechnic University of the Philippines
And I’m currently working as an Engineer in Ortigas
So
Since you said you were an Engineer
What do you usually do in your job?
Usually
Technical related stuff which is ------------ here disclosure
Would you like to elaborate?
For example
Computer related
It’s pretty hard to explain
Since
It’s not that
You can’t really explain it in layman’s term
But
In simple words
It’s technical stuff
related to Computer Science
I see.
What are the common problems that would usually occur in a job like yours?
Job?
Uhm.
Nothing much
Unless you encounter something that
You didn’t really study in school
Mhmm
And you must
Pursue into knowing or mastering that unknown topic
Oh
So education is really important
Education is continuous even after college
Do you find your job challenging?
Uhm.
I don’t really see it as challenging
Because I see it as fun
Because I like doing my job
So
Why you chose Computer Science was
because you find the jobs there entertaining
Uhm Because I
Why I chose Computer Science in college or
Why
-Ah yes
Why you chose Computer Science in college
In college because
I don’t really remember but
I kinda like
computer
Before
Then I
When I entered college
I started to learn much more
So what basic skills do you need as someone who studied Computer Science
If you were in a job what skills would you need?
If you’re graduated of Computer Science already?
Yes for example
If you graduated and
Everything you learned in you college is
All basic
And the stuff you do in your job
is not taught in college
You really
You will be trained
Really
In any company you entered
There is no company that
Once you’re there you’re
Already on your job
No training
You must be trained 3:53
So yeah
Like
Like I asked earlier
You wanted to pursue computer science
Yes.
So
What do you think are the traits that
Inspired you to?
Take up computer science
Uhm Traits ?
I don’t really know
If it’s considered a trait
Uhm
Simply because I like computers
Yes
And that’s really all that is
And it’s all on the person if
He will like it or not
You’re working.
So
How many years have you been working?
I just started last year
Because I recently graduated
Do you find it fun?
Oh yes.
In your workplace?
Yes
I said it earlier
Because I enjoy my work very much.
Oh
Do you have any relatives
who also undergo similar courses or jobs?
Uhm I think I have one
But not really sure if we’re on the same track
But we’re definitely on the same Technology side
Do you think
That the
The technological side of
Courses and jobs are popular?
I’m not saying because
I’m not sure whether
she took I.T, Information Technology or
Computer Science
But I’m pretty sure that
She’s in the side of Computers or Technology
So
Last question
What advice would you give to students
if they’re looking to pursue Computer Science?
Uhm. If they really wanted to pursue
They will enjoy
What they will do
In college
Because if you don’t enjoy it
You really will not pass
I have many classmates
Who don’t really enjoy Computer Science and
They
-They failed?
Not really failed
But they shift
They shifted courses?
Yes
Because they don’t really enjoy the course
So In general
In order to be good at something
You have to enjoy it
Yes of course
Uhm anyway
thank you for your time
Uhm as a
We would like to
I will give you a
something as a token of appreciation
Thanks
Uhm so
thank you for your time
This is a token of appreciation for you time in this interview
It’s a chocolate
Yes thank you
Thank you po.
