On the Job Training

Introduction
On-the-Job-Training or OJT is job training that occurs in the work place. It is part of a college curriculum that aims to train and orient students about the work and their future career. It is very important not only to teach students their chosen career but to show students the reality about working. Students should not take OJT for granted because if you will get a high evaluation grade, your employer might hire you when you graduate. Your background OJT is very important when applying for a job. Oftentimes, employers will ask you the relevance of your training to your course and to the position you are applying for. It will be your training ground. If you still have no idea on what is meant to be a worker, OJT will give a hint of career realities.

Your OJT superior might as well recommend your skills to other companies whom he knows. It will give you a sense of confidence that you can use when applying for a job after graduation and also help you to make career choices. Students should realize the importance of OJT on their future career. Having a good performance during OJT is very important especially now that there’s a tight competition towards job seekers and the high qualification of companies.

Self Assessment
Intelligence is one of the key to succeed. No one can take it away from us. But having knowledge isn’t enough to succeed. We need to use it on the right way. We have to persist to anything undertaken to attain our goals. On my training I learned a lot such as improving my whole personality in terms of socialization and vision towards life. I’d realized that problems in life are like problems in work, we must search for the best solution. We couldn’t solve it without co-workers, co-trainees and employees. It’s like the saying “No man is an island” in other words, we couldn’t live only with ourselves we need the help of other people to overcome the problems in life.

During the days of my training I’d familiarized what are the transactions in the bank was. But just like in real life we couldn’t avoid to commit mistakes. No one is perfect, I remember one time that I committed a mistake, they didn’t blame me instead they teach me how to do the task correctly. Sometimes the more we commit mistakes the more we learned the lesson because as what they said we’ll learn a lot from our own mistakes. SO in the near future I’ll apply those things that I learned during my OJT time. In this training I can say that I’m transformed into a real better person.
