What will be your plan after graduation? Where will you study? What will be your course?

  As we progress our webinar activities, We have started our specialized webinars; Accountancy-centered  webinars began last May 13, 2022.      It is not a secret that Accountancy is indeed the type that will make you run towards the other side of the line, not only because of the board exam but also because of how rigorous it is as a field of study.      Our Speaker, Mr. Dorongon, is not only a Certified Public Accountant but is also a Licensed Professional Teacher that also has multiple post-graduate degrees.

  The speaker, Ms. Theresa P. Aspiras,  Phoenix Publishing House Senior Manager for Human Resources, disseminated the necessary points and information that are much needed by us.       She highlighted that our personality is how we present ourselves to the world as to future employees .  With this point, she stated the 3 V's to Building your Personal Brand:  Visual, Verb, and Voyage.       Visual corresponds to what the recruiters see. Ms. Theresa reiterated that we must dress to impress, which means we must present ourselves how the employer expects us to.
