Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a Computer Science degree to work in IT?

No, you don't necessarily need a CS degree. While it helps, many successful IT professionals come from bootcamps, self-learning, or other educational backgrounds. What matters most is demonstrating your skills through projects, certifications, and practical experience. Many Philippine tech companies now focus on skills-based hiring rather than degree requirements.

What programming language should I learn first?

For beginners, Python is highly recommended due to its readable syntax and versatility. For web development, start with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. If you're interested in mobile apps, consider JavaScript (React Native) or Dart (Flutter). For enterprise applications, Java or C# are solid choices. Choose based on your career goals.

How long does it take to become job-ready in IT?

With dedicated full-time study (6-8 hours daily), you can become job-ready in 3-6 months for entry-level positions. Part-time learners (2-3 hours daily) may take 9-12 months. The timeline depends on your chosen specialization, prior experience, and learning intensity. Focus on building a strong portfolio and gaining practical experience through projects.

Are IT certifications worth it in the Philippines?

Yes, certifications can be valuable, especially for career changers or those without formal IT education. Certifications like CompTIA A+, AWS, Azure, and Cisco are recognized by Philippine employers. However, they should complement, not replace, practical skills and projects. For experienced professionals, advanced certifications (CISSP, CCNP, AWS Professional) can lead to significant salary increases.

Can I work remotely in IT from the Philippines?

Absolutely! The Philippines has a thriving remote work market for IT professionals. Many Filipino developers, designers, and IT specialists work for international companies. Remote positions often offer higher salaries (USD-based) compared to local rates. Popular platforms include Upwork, Toptal, Remote.co, and LinkedIn. Strong English communication skills and a reliable internet connection are essential.

What are the best free resources for learning IT?

Top free resources include: FreeCodeCamp (web development), The Odin Project (full-stack), CS50 (computer science fundamentals), YouTube (Traversy Media, Programming with Mosh), Codecademy (interactive lessons), Khan Academy (programming basics), and GitHub (open-source projects). For certifications, consider Google IT Support Certificate and AWS Free Tier.

How do I build a strong IT portfolio?

Build 3-5 diverse projects that showcase different skills. Include: (1) A personal website/portfolio, (2) A full-stack web application with database, (3) An API or backend service, (4) A mobile app or specialized project in your field, (5) Contributions to open-source projects. Use GitHub to host code, write detailed README files, deploy projects live (Netlify, Heroku, Vercel), and document your problem-solving process.
