111 Applications, Only 2 Interviews. Is my employment gap killing me?

Inspired to make this post after seeing a similar post previously on this sub. I’m looking for some harsh truths or advice. I recently graduated (Dec 2025) with a Communication degree under a part time basis, but I have about 2 years of prior full-time/contract experience in Brand Marketing and Operations (FMCG industry). I’m applying mostly Senior Executive / Assistant Manager roles. I have been mostly rejected by public service so far. Any feedback on wording, layout, or how to address…

Republic poly

Hello to all my RP seniors. I will be going to RP via pfp. So I would like to know the followings down below if y’all don’t mind answering: Are short pants generally allowed in RP? I saw on the website that sometimes say can but sometimes say cannot so I’m confuse What time do classes usually start and end generally especially for pfp? I heard that there are a lot of changes since last year, has things gotten better or the worse for you? Are most of the lecturers good? Thank you for reading…

Republic polytechnic

Okay so I have a bunch of questions What is poly life like, how much free time, do u get a fixed schedule, what’s the routine, how much pressure, is there a dress code, do u need to study a lot, how are the classes like, what exactly do u do in hands on learning, What ranks polytechnics apart from student preference. Why is sp common science cut off so low compared to rp, is there an actual reason I’ve heard a lot of negativity about rp, is it true or just like nonsense. I applied to common…

From Coffee Runs to Big Ideas: How Interns Are Reshaping the Workplace

This shift was on full display at Republic Polytechnic’s Diploma in Mass Communication Career Fair, where students and industry professionals came together in a space that blurred the traditional lines between mentor and mentee.  For decades, internships have followed a familiar script. Seasoned professionals impart wisdom, while interns gain experience and build their resumes. Success […]

I need advice from past pfp or currently in poly looking to go to med school students

For context I just got back my n level application to poly and I got my last option to republic but I put republic on it because I didn’t know what else to put. I’m aiming to get into med school so could I ask those who are currently deciding or people in the past who have decided what to do should I go rp or sec 5(I got 9 for n net btw) also I can’t appeal cause it’s between nursing or desighn

to appeal or not to appeal

so PFP results just came in and i was offered RP science cluster which was my second choice,,, i put it as my second mostly cause of how near it is to my house and now i kinda regret it because of the stigma RP faces… my net EMB3 is 9 and i have 2 CCA points, should i just accept the offer to RP or try to appeal for NYP(my first choice)?

Possible to pivot from pfp det cluster to sci course in y1?

I js accepted my offer to sp det and I was wondering wether i could pivot to a sci course if i do well enough for y0… Idm my offer rn but tbh i prefer sciences cos im more passionate about that than engineering/technology.. Plus I foolishly accepted my offer already instead of appealing cos i dont rlly think i stand a chance since i got raw9 & the COP for most polys is 3-7 (excluding RP)
