I got a 6-digit salary with only 1 year of experience!
Sobrang saya ko! For context: graduate ako ng engineering, pero napunta ko sa data analytics field. 30k unang sahod ko sa una kong work, pero since di pumayag boss ko sa raise, naisipan kong maghanap na lang. Nakahanap ako dito sa Jobstreet, matagal nga lang process pero worth it! Grabe 6 digit earner na ko! Di ko akalain HAHA!
Tip ko lang: upskill, hanap ng international clients, then negotiate. Soon, 6 digit earner na rin kayo!

Congrats sayo!!! Question lang, hindi ka ba nahirapan magpalit ng field? Gusto ko rin kasing mag career shift dahil alam kong hindi lalaki sahod ko sa field na to. Gusto ko sanang mag-try sa data analytics field pero natatakot naman ako huhu. Knowing your story, na-inspire ako na mag try ngayon! Pagod na ko sa maliit na sahod at gusto ko na nang malaking sahod! Please share your journey here. Badly need more tips!

hello, morgan. i think there'll be a challenge when it comes to shifting fields, so I suggest na mas okay din pumili ng field that you're interested in. for me, i like numbers kaya siguro nag thrive ako sa field na to. you can try taking free online courses maraming free google courses na p'wede mo explore. from there, see if you like it.

thanks all! may not be able to answer all questions, tho regarding shifting fields, marami akong kakilala from this field na walang background before when it comes to data analytics tho of course, suggest ko pa rin to look for a field na interested kayo. yes, challenging but you'll surely reap the rewards later.other tips: try to enrol sa google data analytics course, study excel and tableau.

buti nagtiwala sa'yo client mo knowing na 1 yr ka pa lang nagwowork. kung dito yan sa pinas abutin ka pa ng ilang years of experience bago mo yan makuha, worse hindi pa nga unless magbu-business ka. interesting din data analytics field peor di talaga ko mahilig sa numbers haha. good thing marami akong naririnig na possible field na kaya din maka-earn ng 6 fig. also, congrats!
