A CV of employee from CBDs does not guarantee skills and competence

It is about getting better...

This post has an opportunity to work with a graduate of  Makati CBD job mill.  However as this post observe his technical and executive skills, I found them to be lacking.  Especially executive skills,  When I ask him for making a choice and recommending the best one, he could not.

I requested for a ____ plan which he submitted fast.  But devoid of research and on the ground data.   How could  that be a passable  ____ plan.  A plan has to be based on solid data and facts  Evidence based decision making   Just winging it?

So HR ladies and gentlemen, from whence an employee come from does not indicate excellence.  Probe, interview some more

There is a lot of egging on and lectures which I hope can push him to move up.  Of the 3 or 4 projects deal assigned to him, his score was 0.  And he was a graduate of a top PHL university

What apps are more important than a University Degree

What are  the more important than a University Degree?

Many look at University Degree as God.  But you need a University Degree to get a diploma or certificate.  A University does not give  you what is more important in life or work:   information.  For some profession, University Degree is important to some professions like Medicine or Law.



But you can get information at the apps, and without cost:

      1.  Google
      2.  You Tube
      3.  Podcast

I stopped buying books 5 years ago (so with millions of others who no longer buy books.  That is why Barnes and Nobles went bust in NY.    National "Book"Store has reformatted its stores and selling very little books now.  It has become an office supplies store. (Maybe very few buy books now. Many prefer to read on line)

Do you agree?
