RECAP
From your last module, you learned about confidentiality in the workplace and conflict resolution. Suppose you work
in a police station or a law firm and signed a confidentiality agreement regarding all their cases at hand, suddenly
your friend who was a suspect to a crime asked you for some documents that are in your office’s possession that may
help him in his case. How would you deal with the situation? Briefly write your reaction to this scenario.

One of the duties and responsibilities of the Work Immersion students is to prepare the
documentations and reports required in the curriculum and by the partner institution. It is assumed
that after your work immersion, you either study in college or land for a job.
When you start applying for a job, you will realize that more often than not, a college
degree is not enough for you to be qualified. Nowadays, employers are usually looking for a
“complete” package; not only you should be competent in your chosen field, but you should also
be able to exhibit a pleasing personality and above average speaking and writing skills. Although
these may not be directly related to your job, these can surely facilitate effective communication
both within the workplace and potential clients.
One of the most important aspects of workplace communication involves the reading and
writing of on-the-job texts. These are treated as official company documents because of this, they
should be treated with utmost care.
Resume is a short document used to summarize a job seeker’s experience and qualifications
for a prospective employer. It includes the job seeker’s contact information, work experience,
education, and relevant skills in support of a job application.
Through this record of both your personal background and accomplishments, it helps the
employers to evaluate whether you are qualified for a particular job or not.
Importance:
2. It gives the hiring manager an overview of the qualifications you have for the job for
which you’re applying.
• Begin resume by writing your full name, address, telephone number, fax, a*
• Write an objective. The objective is a short sentence describing what type of work
you hope to obtain.
• Use dynamic action verbs such as accomplished, collaborated, encouraged,
established, facilitated, founded, managed, etc.
• Begin work experience with your most recent job. Include the company specifics
and your responsibilities.
2
• Do not use the subject 'I', use tenses in the past, except for your present job.
Example: Conducted routine inspections of on-site equipment.
• Place your work experience before your education. In English speaking countries,
especially in the United States, work experience is the most important factor in hiring.
• Ask for permission to use someone as a reference before you interview for a
position. It's also a good idea to let your references know that you will be interviewing if
you haven't interviewed for a while. In this way, references will be in the loop if a
potential employer calls or sends an email for further information. But don’t include the
contact information of your references on your resume. The phrase available upon request
will suffice.
• Your entire resume should ideally not be any longer than one page. If you have had
a number of years of experience specific to the job you are applying for, two pages are
also acceptable.
Aside from producing a resume, you also have to learn how to write business letter. It is an
official form of communication used for several business purposes such as presenting proposal,
filing a leave, or even in applying for a job.
Below is an example of application letter applying for a higher position. Study the parts and
its content.
Mr. John Wu
Chief Executive Officer
JW Group of Companies
Ayala Avenue, Makati Philippines
Greetings of peace!
I am Nicholas C. Reyes, and I believe that my work experience and educational background qualify me to
be the Vice President for Operations of JW Group of Companies.
My venture into the professional world started when I was in college. All that time I decided to work as a
service crew at Jollibee Katipunan in order to orient myself with the rudiments of the fast food business,
and perhaps, how medium and large scale business operate in general. Because of my dedication as an
employee and my foresight, I was later on promoted as the outlet’s store manager. Nonetheless, this was
only beginning of my professional growth. Later on, I landed in managerial and executive positions in two
other companies and eventually earned my master’s degree in business administration (MBA). Thus, at
this point in my life, I feel that I have already acquired sufficient experiences
To enable me to efficiently oversee the operations of your company.
Should you decide to hire me, I promise to do my best to ensure the growth of your company.
Thank you so much for going through my application. I am looking forward to working with you soon.
Sincerely,

Another important skill you need to learn is filling out application forms. Most
employers, colleges, training organizations etc. produce their own application form, which you
need to complete when applying for a job, course or training program. This is your first
opportunity to create a good impression and meet the standards and criteria set by the company,
college, and training organization. Remember you only get one chance to make an initial good
impression.
The time taken to complete an application form can be rewarded with an interview, therefore
allow yourself plenty of time to complete the form.
Besides resume and application forms, you will also need other documents such as:
Barangay clearance, Police clearance, mayor’s clearance and medical certificate. How do
you get them? You have to visit the barangay hall, and other offices where they are being
processed.
