..An interview..

..My aMbusH interview..

Well according to my other classmates, this is such a tough assigment because we have to conduct an interview to answer the question. But' I don't want to brag, I'm already used to it, thanks to our past activities which includes on facing people and interacting with them..hehe

Anyway, I just had an interview to a personnel this morning. I asked him directly the question given to us on what is his concept on the nature, scope and role of HRM. And he answered it generalizing the whole concept of Human Resource Management. He said," HRM is responsible for managing employees. The one who keeps and maintain the personal records of the employees. Facilitates on hiring new and skillful employees for the manpower of their company.
He also said that, " HRM handles the giving of salary and compensation. Involved on the benefits provided by institutions such as GSIS, SSS and etc."
He also added that, " today it should not be called HRM because as one of the responsibility of HRM: to develop and enhance the skills and efficiency of their people, it should Likely be called as Human Resource Management and Development. This simply shows that HRMD is responsible for conducting trainings and seminars for employee's development."

After that question, I've thrown him a follow up question is his concept similar to that of the management of his organization. According to him, " Yes!, because HRM should be the one responsible for all the things that help their employee on whatever aspect that he encountered.

I've really agree with him because as what I have learned in our past discussions, Human resource management is responsible for how people are treated in organizations. It is responsible for bringing people into the organization, helping them perform their work and compensating them for their labors.

I've like to thank my interviewee because he had given me new ideas about HRM. Because honestly, I still have to used my convincing powers. And after it, at last he allowed me conduct the interview..heheü

Yipee!

Last Wednesday, September 3, 2008, our group have already made our gantt chart for our HRM. So after doing so, we immediately submitted it to Sir Gamboa. But, unfortunately Sir Gamboa is not around because of some meetings and seminar he had attended to. We already panicked for the reason that the last submission for the gantt chart would be on September 6, or else we are amiable for a failing grade.

Friday came, still we don't know if our gantt chart was approved or been corrected. Thank God cause Sir Gamboa was already there on that day. As we checked our gantt chart, we found out that some corrections have been made. Just as the same day, we had been corrected two times and printed the gantt chart for two times.

At last, on September 5, 2008 on 2:30pm(I'm not sure with the time.hehe) our gantt chart was approved by Sir Gamboa for posting. Take note: it's our day of our festival. We're very glad for that moment because at last we could start for our major paper, and continue for our journey in this subject for a successful result ahead of us.

Our Company Visit...

Last last week I and my group mates on the HRM visit again our adopted company which is the Davao City Government. Unfortunately, we are not able to go there because some of us have another things to do. Also, some of them got a fever.
Well, just this morning I'm glad that all of our schedule agree on our visit. But still one of our group mate was not able to join us because Ymreb was rush to the hospital yesterday for having a high fever. Then, we immediately approach some personnel in their HRMO office so that we could have an interview again regarding on their HRIS. The purpose of our visit is to gathered data regarding the HRIS of the said company. Good for us that the City Government already have an existing HRIS. However, they instructed us to give them a letter again even if they have approved us last time to conduct a study. We should give a separate letter for conducting a study. So now we're busy for the approval of the letter and later on to continue doing our gantt chart.

....My Horoscope....

Friendster Horoscope for August 14, 2008

Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 18)

The Bottom Line

You're very attractive indeed, and people start seeing it, today. Expect stares.

In Detail

It's all in your head today -- in other words, you can alter your reality by simply thinking differently than you have been. Feeling unattractive? Simply remind yourself that you are indeed very attractive, and people will start seeing it. Worried you won't pass a test? Tell yourself that you'll do as well as you can, and then you will. It's important to realize that your powers of positive thinking are just as strong as your powers of negative thinking -- so make sure to think the right way.

>>well it's not bad if we follow our horoscope sometimes..heheh

SONA 2008

State of the Nation Address
of President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo during the 2nd Regular Session of the 14th Congress of the Republic of the Philippines 28 July 2008

Honestly, during the SONA of the President, I was not really able to witness it live. That day I was still in the school having our classes. But so much for that, what's the use of the internet..hehe

I've just read a 13 pages SONA speech and relating the points of the President to Human Resource Management, here are the following areas:


The President said,"Our P 350 million training partnership with the private sector should qualify 60,000 for call centers, medical transcription, animation and software development, which have a projected demand of one million workers generating $13 billion by 2010."
Because of this training partnership, many unemployed people are given the chance to have a job. More job opportunities are offered. People who are skilled, like us Information Technology and Computer Science students.



According to the President,"Bago ako naging Pangulo, isa’t kalahating milyong maralita lamang ang may health insurance. Noong 2001, sabi natin, dadagdagan pa ng kalahating milyon. Sa taong iyon, mahigit isang milyon ang nabigyan natin. Ngayon, 65 milyong Pilipino na ang may health insurance, mahigit doble ng 2000, kasama ang labinlimang milyong maralita. Philhealth has paid P100 billion for hospitalization. The indigent beneficiaries largely come from West and Central Visayas, Central Luzon, and Ilocos. Patuloy nating palalawakin itong napaka-importanted programa, lalo na sa Tawi-Tawi, Zambo Norte, Maguindanao, Apayao, Dinagat, Lanao Sur, Northern Samar, Masbate, Abra and Misamis Occidental. Lalo na sa kanilang mga magsasaka at mangingisda."
This Philhealth program really help insuring the life of our Filipino people. Especially to those unprivileged people.



"In training, 7.74 million took technical and vocational courses over the last seven years, double the number in the previous 14 years. In 2007 alone, 1.7 million graduated. Among them are Jessica Barlomento now in Hanjin as supply officer, Shenve Catana, Marie Grace Comendador, and Marlyn Tusi, lady welders, congratulations. "
Well, this is really an accomplishment to be proud of. Because even if they are not a graduate of a Bachelor's degree course still they are given a chance to be trained. We badly needed them, skilled and trainable people. A lot of employments are awaiting them.



Well, I just HOPE that all these things she had been said will be implemented well. After all these would really benefit all of us. Let's just cooperate to our government especially to our President, to achieve all of our goals in making our country more prosperous and globally competitive one.
I salute President GMA for despite of all our problems and crisis we have been facing right now, still she stand firm and show how determined she was to improve our country.

PRELIM EXAM

Yesterday we had our Prelim exam on our Computer Programming 2 subject(JAVA). It was scheduled 5:00-6:30, supposedly we are going to take the exam last Tuesday but due to scarcity of computer units in the laboratory we are not able to join our batch mate. But then, I could say that there's no need to regret because our exam yesterday is such a worth keeping for .

Even though I don't perfect the exam and my program lacks one condition, still Sir Jappeht assure us that we already passed the exam for he saw our great effort. Yeah, it's really worth remembering because a lot of unexpected things happen but I just want to keep it to myself and to the people who are around yesterday. To end this post, I want to leave a short reminder: " Ayaw ug HILAK sa laing tao kay UYAB lang ang ginahilakan!." heheh =)

At Last!!

AT LAST!!

It was July 8, 2008 when our presentation in HRM was scheduled. But due to some reasons we were not able to present on that said day. So we moved it to Thursday, July 10, 2008 and prepared ourselves for the sharing. But unfortunately Sir Gamboa was not around that time. Then again, we rescheduled the borrowing of the LCD projector which we are going to use on the sharing. I guess, the postponement of our presentation is such a blessing in disguise, it gives us more time to prepare and more time to study our topic.

The preparation..
July 15, 2008 has come, the day for our very final presentation. Our class would start on 11o'clock but because I was so nervous and excited about our HRM, i really arrived very early at the school. Immediately upon arrival, I went to the IC nodal and followed up our reservation for the LCD projector. Afterwards, Ym, one of my group mate favored me to get the speakers one of our paraphernalia(for the presentation..hehe) in their apartment for they will be having their quiz.

The presentation proper..
11o'clock had come and started the ball rolling. We are five in the group and assigned different topics to discuss the Human Resource Management organizational structure of our adopted company which is the City government. I admit that they could not avoid to sleep and got bored of just listening to us. So as an ice breaker we taught our classmates a game which we called us Go Choki Pa. Then after that we gave each of them a lollipop as a bonus for their cooperation on the game. Lastly, we held them our experiences throughout the preparation, the visit and the interview we conducted.

My reflection..
The presentation was just so nice. All of them had fun and learned something at the same time. I was very glad because Sir Gamboa also participated in what we prepared on that day. I'm grateful for my group mates because we help each other to make our presentation a successful one indeed!
