Freelancer / WFH - Anong work mo?

Sa mga kasymb natin jan na work from home / freelancer.

Flex nyo naman kung anong work or job position nyo.

Gaano na katagal sa field or sa freelancing.

Ilan ang clients at ilang digits ang salary.

Para mainspire naman kami at makakuha ng idea kung anong career ang pwedeng ipush.

Thanks sa mag-sheshare!

Hi! Software Engineer here FullStack Nodejs, ReactJS, React-Native, and NextJS for almost 4 years. Work from anywhere, employed in Singapore and currently in PH but will soon relocate to another country (without the need to resign from my current job).

My advice to you guys is to find your niche and focus on it. All skills can be learned as long as you have the right mindset. The fastest way is the slowest so always find a way to learn and improve your skills and do not give up no matter how boring it might get. Our lives are agile so expect the hardest challenge and always be fluid to adapt. Changes are inevitable but make sure to keep your target locked on one certain goal while having a backup plan.

Have a great night Fellow Symbianizers! It's good to be back!

Freelancer/Self-employed or whatever you call means FREEDOM! But it won't be like a walk in the park especially if sanay kayo mag-work sa labas. Moreover, hindi sa makakawala ka AGAD sa 8-5pm job. Freelancing also means, REQUIRING MORE TIME to get that decent pay since your employment is not the same as the corporate/outside world. Though you may be equiped with the trainings and certificates sometimes it may not be enough. I was an online ESL teacher turned CSR>TSR, I was working office-based from 2010-2020, then pandemic hit and all of us forced to work from home. (even my office-based company was forced to go WFH) left my office based job and enrolled to this VA course [with internship] online, took it for 2 months, got certified. I applied on Indeed, browsed jobs, applied here and there, hanngang sa na hire sa isang direct client for a CSR post, eventually trained for Sales na ren. Recently, I applied on OLJ as VA (as YT channel mngr) pay was decent, partime lang naman. To make it short, kapain mo yung mga skills na meron ka now, anong meron ka na complimentary sa pwede mong aralin na course sa freelancing, then work on your way up there. We can't study every niche ESPECIALLY kung hindi mo naman trip tlga.

Dati usong uso dito ung mga uploaders nasan na kaya sila. Andami yumaman dun.

 

[Care1968]

Hindi ko alam kung freelancing ba tawag saken haha. Nag work kasi ako sa Singapore before and dahil sa pandemic napa uwi ako ng Pinas. Kinuha ako ng company ko to work for them kahit andito na sa Pinas and I am working at the comfort of my home since 2020. Telco company sya sa SG and more on emails, system and account modifications trabaho ko sa company.

Ako naman ay isang freelance pero hindi pa fulltime but I am planning to do it in a fulltime base kasi mas marami pang zero digits na kinikita ko sa freelancing job ko versus my corporate job right now as an HR Practitioner for 5 years now in my present employer sa isa rin na malaking corporation dito sa bansa natin. Ever since dream job ko talaga ang Marketing at Product Designing kaya ang ginawa ko tulad din ng mga nababasa ko sa ibang platform at mga talent boot camps ay to "stick with your niche" kaya ang pinili ko ay Digital Marketing and Advertising. Nag-aral muna ako, inaral ko lahat ng courses na available sa Google Garage, Skillshop, Grow With Google and Facebook Blueprint lahat na patungkol sa DIGITAL MARKETING and ADVERTISING pagkatapos 'non nag aral ako ng short course through (VLE) Virtual Learning Education ng The Open University (UO) sa Milton Keynes, England ng Certification for Digital Marketing and Advertising (medyo may kamahalan lang pero sulit) then what I did is nag take ako ng Assessment Test and Certification sa OMCA or Online Marketing Certified Associate ng OMCP Organization - ang OMCP ay isang global certifications na kinikilala ng mga malalaking kompanya for certified marketers.

Ngayon kahit na hindi ako nagse-send ng proposals sa Upwork (formerly oDesk) ay mismong employer na nag-DM sa akin to join sa team nila. Pero kadalasan talaga marami akong natatanggap na emails from Head Hunters (Recruiters) at Direct Mail sa LinkedIn Profile ko.

PS. One best practice na itinuro sa amin during my studying time sa The OU ay gumawa ng LinkedIn Profile at ilatag lahat ng credentials, trainings and seminars including relevant experiences dahil isa iyon na hinahanap at nalalagay sa algorithm ng LinkedIn para mataas ang Discovery Rate mo sa mga Search ng LinkedIn.

As of now, naka hiatus muna ako since ang Canadian employer ko ay lilipat sila ng operations sa Australia and planning to relocate me sa Brisbane, Australia.

TIP: Now matter how boring and draining during your learning process, BAWAL ANG TAMAD. Kung hindi niyo po afford ang The Open University then pwede napo ang Google Garage, Skillshop, Grow with Google and Facebook Blueprint since FREE po ito. Hindi po FREE ang certification assessment sa OMCP Organization.

Lastly, YOUTUBE Tutorials is for FREE.

Thank you.
