What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to grow in HR, where I can apply my psychology background to support employee development and foster a positive workplace culture.

I am a dedicated and aspiring HR professional currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Psychology at the University of Cebu. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in understanding human behavior, which I have applied during my internships in guidance and human resources. I believe that effective communication and problem-solving are essential in any role, especially in HR, where understanding diverse perspectives is crucial.

During my internship as a Guidance Intern at Cebu Technological University, I managed student complaints with calm and clear communication, ensuring a supportive environment for all. I developed a module for team-building activities, which enhanced my organizational skills and ability to engage with students effectively. Additionally, my experience as an HR Intern at the University of Cebu Main Campus allowed me to maintain accurate records and compile personnel data, further honing my attention to detail and commitment to confidentiality.
