INTRODUCTION
On-the-job training programs (OJT) strengthen your skills in preparation
for the job role. Your academic background aside, a specific job role has unique
dynamics, requirements, and workflows. An OJT training program weans you
onto the job's dynamics, workflows, and, broadly, the company culture.
On the Job Training is a part of the college curriculum that aims to train
and orient students about the work and their future careers. It is the best training
method to develop the skills trainees need to learn in the workplace through
hands-on experience. These will help the students be exposed to different work
situations and allow them to experience and apply the knowledge they learned
from school.
On the Job Training is very important to teach students about their
chosen career and show students the reality of working. The significance of OJT
is that students will be exposed to the actual work related to their specialization
or the course they are taking. Provide a trainee with practical knowledge and
skills to enhance productivity and skills in using tools, software, and techniques.
Also, having proper On-the-job training helps students in the preparation of future
professionals for their future jobs.
On the other hand, an effective program would benefit OJT companies
that accept trainees. First, On-the-Job or confined additional workforce for the
cost of making less than a regular employee. Most of them are eager to learn
theories, so chances are high that they will cooperate.

One of the most important things I learned is that talent alone is
insufficient. It is essential, but it is no guarantee of success. One must also be
hardworking and should practice self-discipline. Sacrifice is significant, too, at
work, unlike what happens in school for being calm sometimes.
As they have seen, accepting On-the-Job trainees can benefit not only the
trainees but also the companies that provide opportunities for this type of
learning. There is wisdom in the front lines. Such training can be a valuable
investment to the company later. It would become a powerful tool and a source of
recommendation when they feel that big lift from being students to career
professionals.

NARRATION OF EXPERIENCE
4
The trainee worked here for 300 hours; it took two months and two weeks,
and the trainee had already learned a lot of things, more than she had expected.
She came to realize the importance of On-the-Job training (OJT) to a student’s
life. Aside from the training that she got, it’s the experience and learning that she
acquired and will be gaining for the upcoming days that made it more essential.
Lucky indeed to be able to choose the best company that does things that
are quite a bit related to her chosen field, and the best thing about them is they
love to share everything that they can give without any hesitation. The
opportunity to have the best experience wished to have become reachable. The
training ground that was expected to prepare them for the future became great
for her development.
September 11, 2023. That was the first day of on-the-job training. Sir Paul,
who was in charge of business information data, made the trainee an account for
the computer used in the office to have a system. The trainee was introduced to
co-workers at DOFI and DCI. On her first day, it was not good because the head
of the admin, Ma'am Jesusa, was in a bad mood, but some also said that she
was strict at work. They called in the HR together with supervisor and explain the
work they could assign to the trainee and also explain they prepare the trainee
mentally and emotionally because when a trainee is in the real world, she is
ready for the different challenges. The head of warehousing was interviewed first
and checked the schedule because the supervisor will give birth next week.
Ma'am Rizza and Ma'am Liza guide the trainee on what to do. First, there were
instructions on how to print a picking slip; The trainee aware to how to print and
5
use a computer, and they also made a copy of the items and whose stockman
assigned them.
On her second week, before Ma'am Rizza left, she orients the trainee
about her work, including demo monitoring, preparing NSDR, and pull-out forms;
She also instruct how to prepare an NSDR when an agent wants to demo an
item to their clients, as well as the pull-out form if the item has already been
delivered to the client and has lasted for two weeks. The trainee will make a pull-
out form to return the sample item to the warehouse. The trainee needs to
update daily and print the pickling slip if it’s had an order. There are few orders in
the morning, but when it comes afternoon, there are many orders; when I print it,
I give the name of whose stockman the item is and give it to them.
On her third week, the work environment was happy even though there
were seven employees in the office, and everyone should be open, especially
when there is a problem at work. Ma'am Jesusa doesn't want a problem,
everyone makes a solution if there is one. At first, the trainee thought she was
very strict, but she realized that the longer time spent in the office, she was kind
and funny; she just wanted the work to go well. Initially, the trainee was nervous
because she wants to make a mistake, but it's good that Ma'am Lyza was always
there to help. Print a packing slip when an order or something revised. Also, in
corporate or any work, it is essential to have a receiving form to prove that the
receipt has already been given to a specific person, and the demo monitoring
must constantly update because Ma'am Cheryl always checks the Excel file she
also monitors. The trainee given the task to try audit the stock count of Kuya
6
Jerson, one of the stockman, and that's when she realized that it's not easy to do
an audit; you need to check all to be able tally in stock count and actual.
On her fourth week, the trainee more comfortable in the. They said from
the beginning that always ask questions to everyone when there’s I want to know
also ask stockman whose client, they are assemble so that she can also
familiarize with the transactions. The trainee prepares a label for delivery; it was
easy because it was only in Microsoft Word. Sometimes when there aren't many
orders, she count the screws first because the logisticis used when they deliver
an item and assemble it there. The logistics people are also very kind;
sometimes, there is a misunderstanding, and there is such a thing in all
companies. She also celebrated a birthday at the office. Also monitor Ma'am
Rizza's gmail that there might be a CSR for demo the trainee need to prepare
NSDR and have it approved by the head.
On her fifth week, the trainee checks the ordered items with the suppliers.
She also filed picking served or those that have already been delivered and are
still pending. Every day, the trainee doing pending, in and out of the stock count.
Sometimes, I'm also curious about the amounts and companies that order from
DOFI and the big companies like Shopee, Ayala etc. that supply their office
furniture items. Sometimes, some clients order today and want it delivered now
because the policy is even 2-3 days, while others take months because of their
order amount.
On her sixth week, every morning she open the docs for items, demo
monitoring, viber, and messenger because that's where Ma'am Fritz sends the
7
orders to our GC to see if the order will be ready to print. I also compare the
pending orders, how many stocks is available in google docs, and the stock
count. It's like she doing an audit, it should be always updated and tallied. When
there is an order, I will print the picking slip and put the name of the stockman
who will assemble it. They have to sign the copy for the office, and I will also give
them a copy. The trainee also does NSDR for the Makati showroom. When a
client comes to visit and check on the items, we have to bring the item there,
especially if the client wants to see something specific. There is also a Customer
Service Request that also the trainee assigned.
On her seventh week, sometimes the agents also send food not only for
the office but also for the all stockman. As a gratitude, especially when they have
ASAP orders. The company also provides or distribute employees with their old
or damaged furniture stocks. The company include the trainee give the things like
tiles, study tables, etc. You can see that they also appreciate their employees.
The trainee became observant of the company and the other departments.
Sometimes, coordinate with those in production team, especially when the client
has a specific color or size or needs a mock-up.
It was her eight weeks; the trainee performed the usual tasks assigned to
her in the previous weeks. Since 2023 is ending, and the head has not been able
to audit the Warehouse for a long time, she announced that she will start doing
the audit next week. That's why need to update all the stock count and all the
items. When there is a discrepancy, she asks the stockman if something needs
to be added. We also checked with the stockman to ensure the number of stocks
8
was correct. I have also been filling the copies of the NSDR and picking. Also,
find the tracking numbers from the supplier in Gmail.
It was the last week of the battlefield of work, a week of realization and
enlightenment. The days are now counted only on the fingers but the knowledge
and experience gain inside the business were immeasurable and priceless. The
company’s CEO evaluate the trainee give some advices, comments, and
suggestion for the preparation to her chosen path. Before finally leaving the
company, the employees gave her a remembrance that made her special. The
trainee was lucky because her supervisors were very nice and warm to her and
taught her many things most significant to his professional life.

PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED
Everyone experiences tough times, it is a measure of your determination
and dedication how you deal with them and how you can come through them.
During the stay in the company, the trainee has encountered problems
that most of the trainees known and experienced. At the first, the trainee
considered the location of the company as a problem during her On-the-Job
training, the trainee was having a hard time to transportation and the
unpredictable flow of traffic that she experiences it would take a one and half
hour for her to reach the place.
10
CONCLUSION
Nothing beats experience as the perfect learning tool. This On-The-Job
training served as the trainee’s stepping stone to pursue her dream. This training
enriched her confidence created a foundation of being a good employee
someday, the trainee can acquire and practice applying the lessons learned from
the years of formal education and discoveries that there are still a lot more to
learn from the real work. Also, OJT serves best by exposing the students to
potential employers and the possibility of being hired someday depending on the
needs of the company, as well as the performance of them in the workplace.
Despite the short period of her training, it was still a very meaningful and
love. This On-The-Job Training is very helpful and will be a very helpful to the
trainee as she continues to take her journey in the field of her chosen path. It
really gave her a taste of the real world – A glimpse of what lies ahead after she
graduate.
11
RECOMMENDATIONS
Every trainee must bring focus to her work. She should carefully listen to
every instruction of their supervisor. If ever she does not understand something,
she should ask for help. Better to ask than to fail in doing a task. Be aggressive
in order to learn. Don’t wait for a supervisor to teach you how things work; taking
initiatives first hand is a must.
In the world of professionalism, it is only yourself to whom he can depend
on. It is important to keep his composure when dealing with problems, to turn
them all right, panicking does not help. Camaraderie is one factor to the success
of a group, observing the proper attitude while working should be noted because
it can affect the work of his colleagues. She should work-in promptness and have
confidence with everything he does.

PROFESSIONAL READINGS
Determinants of Internship Effectiveness: An Exploratory Model
With an emphasis on the roles of businesses, universities, and students,
the study investigates the efficacy of internships. It suggests a multi-stage model
of effectiveness determinants and emphasizes how crucial it is to consider these
actors' actions and the internship process while attempting to understand why
students are satisfied. Based on data from internships in Portugal, the study
recommends what each actor may do to improve the effectiveness of their
training and provides ideas for other academics looking to find these factors.
Assessment of the On-the-Job Training Program of Business
Administration Students of Kalinga State University
The study aimed to find out how business students felt about Kalinga State
University's on-the-job training program. Two hundred twenty-nine individuals
participated in the study, which employed a survey questionnaire. According to
the findings, students thought the program was average. Task mismatches,
inadequate orientation, time constraints, and a lack of supervision were common
problems encountered by trainees. The report recommends that to help students
develop their academic, personal, and entrepreneurial skills, the institution
should increase support, improve pre-placement activities, and improve host
agency support. The university should also set rules for selecting host
organizations to guarantee that the training is applicable and of high quality. The
results can apply to improve competitiveness and undergraduate OJT programs.

Business and Accounting Students’ Perceptions on Industrial
Internship Program
The perspectives of accounting and business students on industrial internship
programs are studied. Eighteen statements are organized into four dimensions
(career, knowledge and practical experience, soft skills, and monetary and non-
monetary incentives) in this survey, administered at the University Sultan Zainal
Abidin in Malaysia. The findings indicate that career is the most significant factor
for business and accounting students, followed by soft skills, knowledge, real-
world experience, and monetary and non-monetary rewards. Regarding the
industrial internship program, the two students' perspectives are comparable.
The study aims to give readers a better grasp of the information obtained from
real-world industrial experience.
On-the-Job Training Program Evaluation of Business Administration and
Accountancy Departments of University of Saint Louis
The University of Saint Louis, a higher education institution in the northern
Philippines, had its business administration and accounting departments. The
study assessed how well these departments implemented the on-the-job training
program. With a 100% response rate, the survey comprised 142 undergraduate
students from government, private, and non-financial schools. The outcomes
demonstrated how well-designed and successful the curriculum was in preparing
students for their future careers. In addition, the curriculum exposed students to
real-world working settings and procedures, improving their abilities and
14
preparing them for their future employment. The survey emphasizes how crucial
well-designed and executed training initiatives are for the business world.
A plea for quality in internship programmes – evidence from the business
and administration students' experience.
The careers of business students are significantly impacted by their
internships and helping others. These courses assist students in selecting the
field that best suits their future careers and understanding the background of
business organizations. On the other hand, specific internship programs might
need to be better run, which would harm students' impressions. Multiple
regression was used in the study to assess the influence of these variables. The
findings have implications for scholars, students, and corporate entities since
they can enhance internship initiatives and the overall experience for all parties.
