Living in an online era, we usually find it more convenient and pleasing to use applications and websites that are more aesthetic, responsive, and most importantly, free from bugs and errors. This is where quality assurance steps in as it ensures that the products are free from issues before it gets released to its users.

In this month’s blog, we are featuring Senior Quality Assurance Engineer-I May Faustino, as she shares with us the ins and outs of Quality Assurance.

Work often becomes intense and serious, especially as deadlines loom, projects accumulate, and requests flood in. In these times, what our employees truly need is a spirited Team Building activity – an exceptional chance to step away from the daily grind, channel their inner youth (in a professional manner, of course), and cultivate deeper connections with their colleagues.

Last June 14, 2024, RareJob PH celebrated Family Day through an online event themed “Homecoming”. We invited some employees as speakers who shared about their loved ones, the food and activities they bond over, and what it means to be a family.

I started my journey here at RareJob PH in December 2022 as a part of the Applicant Relations Team. As one of the Applicant Relations Coordinators, I mainly oversee the complete application journey of tutor applicants. We ensure they will have a positive and seamless experience throughout the application process.

I’ve been with RareJob for a year and 7 months now as a Support Associate from the Operations Department. We handle and resolve all inquiries received from tutors regarding their lessons, schedule and other concern related to the service level agreement.

I was hired in July 2022, and I am currently part of the Applicant Evaluation Team. From my perspective, our role is simple yet crucial to the company; interviewing tutor applicants to check their English proficiency. It is difficult at times, but not impossible, especially after I got used to the daily routine.

When planning for anything, we often have the need to get all aspects down to the letter. For weddings, the attention to detail and the effort given is on an entirely different level. However, there are some things out of our hands that take place, which could shake even the most rock-solid of plans.

One indispensable factor to a company running mostly on a work from home setup is a reliable IT foundation. From network access, hardware concerns, and even usability of various applications needed for tasks, it is safe to say that the IT Infrastructure  Department of RareJob PH definitely stepped up to the challenge.

Working from home has given us quite a few benefits: skipping out on traffic entirely, a customized and comfortable working space, and more time for ourselves. Many of us who enjoy this work setup also enjoy more time with their families, pets included!
