Work Immersion for SHS Students: Sharing my story!

experience of work immersion essay

Whether you like it or not, you will need to survive that SHS work immersion. For every student, it can be considered as the much-awaited activity before graduation.

It could be exciting YET frustrating at the same time. At least in my experience, that’s what happened. I’d like to share with you what exactly happened during this phase.

If you want to set your expectations, you’re on the right page!

What is work immersion?

Work Immersion is similar to what college students experience during their On-the-Job Training (OJT). In this experience, you will be hired as an actual employee with different tasks to accomplish.

You will not just discover new skills but most importantly, you will learn new social skills. You have to cooperate with your co-workers and adapt to  the new environment. In short, it will let you experience what a real job feels like.

Furthermore, this is a very crucial requirement for every graduating student of senior high. So, you are expected to experience a tiring and fun chapter of your life.

How did I start my work immersion?

I must admit that the first step, or finding a vacant position, could be the hardest stage of work immersion.

During the 1st week of March, I spent looking for companies that would accept SHS students. It was a mess! We didn’t know where to start, and HOW we would do it. Our professor came to the rescue and provided us options for the work immersion.

Our school offered us to handle everything for us. From documentation to hiring to finding the right company, they would do it. The second was to teach us independence by coordinating with everything. I wanted to challenge myself so I chose the latter.

So, I did team up with my other classmates who also chose the same option and started applying nonstop. It was very exhausting. We attended several interviews with the hopes of getting tired. Exhausted, hungry, and body fatigue, you name it!

As much as we wanted to continue with our choice, we then asked help for our school to find the best OJT place.

Which organization accepted me for my work immersion?

My beloved alma mater! 🙂

Fast forward, I was able to enter Philippine School of Social Work (PSSW) and University Community Outreach Program (UNICORP) . The same group handled both departments so we served for the two organizations.

If you’re curious on what I did, here were the tasks:

  • Date encoding. Lots of them!
  • Sorting files. Get your organization skills keep going.
  • Arranging exclusive books.
  • Other admin tasks!

Yep! Obviously, your boss will not give your tasks involving technical work. You won’t need to solve problems or attend serious meetings.

Forget about big projects because you need to learn the foundation of working. During your work immersion, your tasks will start from what new hires do.

SHS Work Immersion Experience at PWU

Here’s what I missed the most during this unforgettable experience…

The big bosses! 

I missed how they took care of us with love and care. During breaktime, they treated us with food. I didn’t feel like someone who just got hired for a short time.

They even advised us and shared a little secret about social work. Don’t you know social work profession really pays well? This is most applicable even when you work abroad. However, I’m not going to tell you how much their salary is.

Work Immersion with other employees

If you’re a future social worker, you have to discover it yourself!

Unfortunately, the pandemic cut short our experience. It was supposed to be for the whole month, but lockdown happened. You see, I still feel VERY lucky to have experienced it.

I wonder how they do work immersion right now that work from home is prevalent. But, for sure, you will learn so much!

My Expectations In Work Immersion Essay For Students

Work immersion is an essential part of the learning experience, providing students with a unique opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge in a real-world context. As I prepare for my upcoming work immersion, I am filled with anticipation and expectations. This essay outlines my personal expectations, which include gaining practical skills, understanding workplace dynamics, enhancing my interpersonal skills, and preparing for future career opportunities.

Table of Contents

Essay On My Expectations In Work Immersion

Acquiring practical skills.

One of my primary expectations during this work immersion is acquiring practical skills. While classroom learning provides a strong foundation, it often lacks the hands-on experience necessary to fully understand the nuances of our chosen field. I hope to perform tasks that allow me to practice and improve the skills I have learned in class. This could range from technical abilities specific to my field of study, to more general skills such as time management or problem-solving.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Understanding Workplace Dynamics

Workplaces have their own unique cultures and dynamics that can greatly differ from the academic environment. During my immersion, I expect to gain a deeper understanding of these dynamics. This includes learning about hierarchies, communication protocols, decision-making processes, and teamwork. By observing and participating in these dynamics, I hope to become better prepared to navigate future professional environments.

Enhancing Interpersonal Skills

Interacting with colleagues, superiors, and clients requires a different set of interpersonal skills than interacting with classmates and teachers. I anticipate that my work immersion will give me the chance to develop these skills. Through collaboration and networking, I aim to improve my communication, negotiation, and conflict resolution abilities. These skills are invaluable in any professional setting, regardless of the specific industry or job role.

Preparing for Future Career Opportunities

Finally, I view my work immersion as an opportunity to prepare for future career opportunities. This involves not only honing my practical and interpersonal skills, but also building professional relationships and gaining industry insights. I expect to meet professionals who can provide guidance, offer career advice, and potentially open doors to future job opportunities. Moreover, by observing the industry first-hand, I can better understand its trends and challenges, which will be beneficial when making my career decisions.

In conclusion, my expectations for my work immersion are centered around learning and growth. I anticipate acquiring practical skills, understanding workplace dynamics, enhancing my interpersonal skills, and preparing for future career opportunities. While I recognize that challenges may arise, I am confident that this experience will equip me with valuable tools and insights as I embark on my career journey. Ultimately, I view this work immersion not merely as a requirement to fulfill, but as a stepping stone towards my professional development and success.

Work Immersion Journals: Ten Days with My Dream Job

Story By Maridel Hubahib

Photos By ABM Grade 12 Students

One of the best parts of my senior high school days was the Work Immersion Program. Why not? Work immersion gave me the opportunity to experience my dream job for 10 days and it gave me a pre-taste of what working actually feels like?

When I was a kid, I would often wonder what life would be like if I were working in a bank. That short 10 days gave me a chance to satisfy a part of my curiosity.       I experienced working in one of the country’s biggest and most trusted finance institution together with amazing people. Proudly, I can now say that the Philippine National Bank (PNB) is on my resume.

It was a cloudy day when our Day 1 started. We were a bit late when we came to the bank. Briefly, I scanned the place and saw the branch manager Mrs. Maria Osilla Molina busy reading important documents. The hesitation in our smiles was erased when she smiled back. We were after all, a combination of nerves and excitement.

After calling each of our names for attendance check, Mrs. Molina told us that she has always believed in the old maxim that first impression lasts. She counseled that if we were to apply for a job, we need to looks and dress for that job. Expensive clothes are not necessary but, at least, any applicant must look decent.

Our first day started with that simple lesson.

I actually expected that all students in the Immersion Program just had to sit down all day, chill and observe the surroundings. It turned out, however, that our manager had another plan in mind. Mrs. Molina assigned us to the Annual Confirmation of Pensioners Department.

We took charge of updating the profile of pensioners, surviving beneficiaries or spouses. We made sure that their accounts and documents get updated before the cut off. Sometimes, we would hear heartrending stories of pensioners who were not able to receive their pension because their updates didn’t make it to the cut off. Mostly, they would use the money for their medications.

Some of them, already old and grey, travelled from distant places like Canlaon City, Calatrava or even from Cebu towns for the ACOP. Part of my fulfillment from the Immersion Program was that I know I have at least assisted them.

Another aspect of my experience that I love so much was the bank staff and employees who are all friendly and approachable. They may not speak much during their work hours but they always made sure that at the end of the day they could at least have time for us and share lessons on banking and career in general.

Life lessons were included, too.

experience of work immersion essay

Some of the life lessons were given was about the value of action over words. They also taught us about the importance of having a positive attitude in the workplace because it is not intelligence that will give the authority to control and manage but attitude and behavior. Positive vibes always attract a good following.

Most importantly, our banking mentors taught us that putting God first and accepting His will and plan for us is the best career strategy.

We also got the chance to tour the whole bank, except of course for the restricted areas. PNB in San Carlos City may be an old building that has gone through several transformations, but it’s fully alive because of its management and staff.

The days passed with the speed of light. I realized that once our Work Immersion Program teacher told us that we were the “Lucky 6” because we were assigned at PNB. Our teacher is indeed right. But beyond lucky, we were blessed with an immersion assignment at PNB San Carlos because it is a formidable banking institution and its army of bankers is inspiring and nurturing to young aspirants like us.

Student’s work immersion: A journey through S&T

  • BusinessMirror
  • March 11, 2018
  • 4 minute read

Work immersion sounds stressful for senior high-school students. Yet, as part of the K to 12 curriculum, we science, technology, engineering and mathematics (Stem) students were required to gain relevant learning experiences through actual work. We were assigned to specific partner institution, business organization or establishment parallel to our specializations in order to help us reinforce our knowledge from classrooms and enhance our skills.

For us, a group of six students, we were engaged with the Department of Science and Technology (DOST).

Foremost, we learned that the DOST is the premiere science and technology (S&T) body in the country, in charge with the mandate of providing central direction, leadership and coordination of all scientific and technological activities, and of formulating policies, programs and projects to support national development.

DOST Biliran, officially called Biliran Provincial Science and Technology Center (DOST Biliran-PSTC), is one of the six provincial centers of the DOST-Eastern Visayas located inside the campus of Naval State University.

As we commence the work immersion on February 6, little did we know that an exciting adventure was about to begin. A journey that would make us realize that science is not a mere concept taught inside a classroom and make us gaze in amazement how these scientific concepts are applied in the world.

Initially, we were oriented with the nature and mandate of the institution, as well as the staff who would function as our advisers and supervisors as we initiated our training.

Furthermore, our work environment had become comfortable with the friendly, approachable and cheerful nature of the staff which was essential for us to effectively absorb all the knowledge and acquaint ourselves with the work of DOST personnel.

As we progressed and became acquainted with the work and processes in the DOST, we were assigned to make a variety of reports, such as Technology Needs Assessment (TNA), Yolanda Recovery and Rehabilitation Program (YRRP) Monitoring and even a Small Enterprise Technology Upgrading Program (Setup) Project Proposal.

But the most exciting part of our work immersion was the “travels.”  Going to different towns and barangays around Biliran was a delightful experience for us not just because we saw the beauty of this island dubbed as “Undiscovered Paradise,” but also since we have learned new techniques on how to handle businesses and technologies that are being used to help local enterprises grow.

We were introduced to new experiences and tried new products from DOST -assisted projects.

We have also learned about the concept of Project Deployment of Early Warning System for Disaster-Prone Areas. The project is undertaken in cooperation with the Advanced Science and Technology Institute; the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration; and the DOST regional offices, and its role in mitigating the impacts of disasters in the province.

We visited the different installation of hydro-meteorological devices, such as the automated rain gauge (ARG) in Barangay Talustusan, Naval, Biliran.

ARG is an instrument used by meteorologists to gather and measure the amount of liquid precipitation over a set period of time.

We have also visited the Water Level Monitoring System (WLMS) installed at Pitogohan Bridge in Almeria. The instrument is essential in monitoring the rate of change of water level of the river where it is installed.

Moreover, we have also visited the early warning device installed in Barangay Santo Niño in Naval, which functions as a receiver of data from the WLMS on Caraycaray Bridge. It issues a particular warning level to alert all nearby areas in cases of an impending flood.

In Barangay Villaconsuelo in Naval, we were introduced to a YRRP Project, the Coconut Sugar Processing Facility.

The primary raw material of making this coconut sugar is the collected coconut sap, which is heated and stirred continuously until it solidifies and powdered. This is considered a healthy sugar because it has low glycemic index and is preferable for persons with diabetes.

One of our most challenging travel was when we held a TNA of the Eces Compunix Center in Biliran town.

We were assigned to interview the supervisor of the business and gather the information to accomplish the specific task assigned to us: to contribute in formulating a Setup project proposal.  Setup is DOST’s program that helps micro, small and medium enterprises to adopt technology innovations to improve their business.

Another travel engagement brought us to Culaba town to visit another YRRP Project, the Fish Processing Facility.

We have found out that the area designated for the installation of the fish dryer that is part of the facility to be established must be cleared as soon as possible because the project is among those YRRP projects scheduled for assessment by the National Economic Development Authority regional inspection group.

Though the travels are sometimes exhausting, we really enjoyed them along with DOST personnel.

We have learned how technological and scientific concepts are applied in the real world—all for the convenience of humankind. As the quote says: “Experience is the best teacher”, and nothing compares to the knowledge that it gave us.

This study primarily aimed at assessing the OJT Program of La Consolacion College Tanauan, the objective of which is to develop an OJT Manual for its students and Practicum Coordinators. It involved 44 students under the School of Business and Accountancy, School of International Hotel and Restaurant Management and Tourism Management, School of Education, and School of Information Technology who were enrolled in their practicum course for school year 2011-2012 at La Consolacion College Tanauan. The descriptive method of research was utilized as the research design while the data gathering instruments were the survey questionnaire, unstructured interviews and focus group discussion. Statistical tools used were frequency, percentage and weighted mean. Significant findings revealed that the OJT Program of La Consolacion College Tanauan is well described and meets CHED minimum standards in terms of qualifications of students, industry linkages, number of hours, monitoring and evaluation and OJT requirements. Majority of the respondents are BSHRM and BSBA students. Most of them are with the service industry, in Housekeeping and General Administration Department, doing clerical works. The host establishments assessed the performance of the practicumers in terms of competencies, skills, attitude, and personality development as excellent. In line with this, the practicumers did not encounter any problem in their OJT in terms of training, work environment and school support. On the other hand, Practicum Coordinators encountered minimal problems concerning the training of practicumers. There are no significant differences on the performance of practicumers when grouped according to their profile variables because the practicumers were assessed as excellent in all variables. As such, an OJT Training Manual for the practicumers and the Practicum Coordinators is proposed.

The origin of the name Taal is not actually positively known. An anecdote talks of a native Taaleño, who asked what the town was called, thought the question has reference to what he was hiding and he replied, ta-ad which is the Batangueños word for sugarcane points. From ta-ad, according to same storytellers, came TAAL. Places in the Philippines usually get their names from the plants or trees that grow in profusion near or around it. Tal-an trees have always been identified with Taal settlers and livelihood of the people. This makes the appellation tal-an (where the tal an trees grew) much more relevant than taad. Perhaps it was Datu Puti who coined the name shortly following their landing amidst the Ta-an trees at the mouth of the Pansipit River but time and the people have a way of corrupting words, hence Tal-an became Taal.

Erin Nixon Joins Stanford GSB as Assistant Dean of Admissions

Nixon brings “rare combination of talents” and broad international experience.

April 15, 2024

experience of work immersion essay

Erin Nixon | Maria Åstrand

Erin Nixon, an executive and entrepreneur with strong experience in strategic management and operations, has been named assistant dean of admissions and financial aid at Stanford Graduate School of Business.

Quote I’ve experienced firsthand how [Stanford GSB] transforms the trajectory of its students. Attribution Erin Nixon

Nixon, who earned both her undergraduate and MBA degrees at Stanford, returns to Stanford GSB for a role that she says “at its heart, is about identifying and connecting with smart, highly motivated people who want to make a difference in the world. It is about bringing them together to create a strong, robust community, representing a wide variety of lived experiences, ambitions, and perspectives, united by common values.”

Over her 20-year career, Nixon has built and managed teams across multiple industries and international locations. After five years at Boston Consulting Group, she joined LinkedIn, where she was responsible for growing the global talent brand business, overseeing a team based in 18 countries around the world.

She then pivoted into the world of wine, opening an acclaimed wine bar and restaurant in Barcelona, Spain. In Barcelona, she has also worked as a strategy and operations leader and advisor for a few startups and small businesses, including a tech-enabled mental health provider and a digital marketing and brand agency for wine and spirits.

“We did a comprehensive, international search for someone who could do great work in a role that requires numerous skills — representing the GSB, managing a large professional team, and assessing talent and potential,” says Stanford GSB Senior Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Paul Oyer. “Erin has that rare combination of talents that will enable her to excel in all the aspects of this position. She is a great addition to the GSB’s leadership team.”

“I’m delighted to step into this role because I feel deeply aligned with the mission and goals of Stanford GSB,” Nixon says. “I’ve experienced firsthand how it transforms the trajectory of its students, unlocking leadership potential to drive meaningful impact in the world. Stanford is an incredibly inspiring place, and it’s a dream to be able to return to the Farm and serve the GSB community in this way.”

Nixon begins her new duties on July 1.
