Establishing one’s career in today’s competitive environment has become an endless
pursuit to most job seekers. Employers too are increasingly having a hard time finding
the right person for the job. Too often, there remains a huge gap between the skills
required by the industry and what a graduate has learned from school, hence job
mismatch arises.
STI steps up to bridge this gap by introducing the world’s very first E2E (Enrollment to
Employment) System.
The E2E System is a complete approach to human resource development, which aims
to develop ICT-enabled professionals through innovative learning and career planning
methodologies through applicable education, job market skills, job preparedness and job
placement assistance. It covers every student’s needs from the time he enrolls in STI up
to the moment he applies for a job.
STI’s responsibility to its graduates goes beyond quality education. Through the assured
Job Placement Assistance Program, STI warrants every graduate employment
support with the help of I-CARES.
The Interactive Career Assistance and Recruitment System (I-CARES) is part of
STI’s continuing commitment to provide employment opportunities for its graduates.
Introduced in 2003, it is an online career service system that provides assistance to STI
students and alumni by establishing links with prospective employers. The system allows
the alumni to store and edit their resumes in a databank and be able to access them
anytime, anywhere. Employment opportunities, that are open to alumni for online
application, are posted and are kept current. Upon request of legitimate corporate
partners, the I-CARES also has the facility to filter its database based on the personnel
requirements of companies relative to the qualifications specified by the alumni in their
stored resume.
I-CARES is the first and the only system of its kind in the Philippine educational setting.
