KodeGo, Jobstreet address IT skills, jobs mismatch in PH

Online tech bootcamp KodeGo is partnering with one of Asia’s leading online employment marketplaces Jobstreet Philippines to help address the skills mismatch between job seekers and open company positions, particularly in the field of Information Technology (IT).


Through the popular recruitment platform, hiring firms can easily source candidates from KodeGo for Web Development and Data Science. KodeGo graduates are given a special tag so they are noticed faster.   

 

“JobStreet has always been a titan in the recruitment and job placement space, so they are an ideal partner for KodeGo. Through this collaboration, we can give our bootcampers bright career opportunities and contribute to building a future-proof digital nation,” said Glenn Estrella, Head of Portfolio Growth for 917Ventures.

 

KodeGo is the latest spinoff of 917Ventures, the country’s largest corporate venture builder owned by Globe.

 

“We, at Jobstreet Philippines, remain committed to bringing new tools to help our local job seekers achieve their career goals. This partnership with KodeGo will bring us closer to our mission to give a job to every Filipino, which has been our focus since day one,” shared Philip Gioca, Country Manager for Jobstreet Philippines.

 

KodeGo assists students in achieving their dream careers in IT much faster. It fills the gap between open tech positions and the lack of technical skills among aspiring tech employees through an online tech bootcamp.

 

This accelerated and intensive study program allows students to learn how to become software engineers, web developers, and data scientists.  Once they graduate, the students are matched with KodeGo’s partner companies.

 

With its market-driven curricula and real-world projects, KodeGo is confident that its graduates will be ready to take on whatever challenges they may face in their desired IT career.

 

KodeGo also offers a “Study Now, Pay Later” program as part of its advocacy.  Students pay for the bootcamp only when they are hired.

 

KodeGo is one with Globe in supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly UN SDG No. 4, ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all, and UN SDG No. 9, highlighting the roles of infrastructure and innovation as crucial drivers of economic growth and development. It is committed to upholding the UN Global Compact principles and contributing to 10 UN SDGs.

GCash cautions against gambling apps used for phishing

A recent investigation by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) and the leading mobile wallet GCash, has led to the discovery of certain gambling sites and apps which were used for account takeovers in the recent surge of phishing scams. Additionally, some influencers may have unknowingly promoted these gaming apps without being aware of their fraudulent nature. GCash is now cautioning its users to be extremely careful when accessing online gambling sites and apps, and to avoid them altogether if possible. In this latest scheme, perpetrators created gambling apps while falsely claiming to be accredited by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). These apps deceive users with a verification process, redirecting them to a fake GCash website or payment page to top up betting credits. From there, fraudsters were able to access sensitive information such as credit card details, passwords, GCash numbers, MPINs, OTPs, and other personal data that can be exploited to gain unau...
