KEY CONCEPTS
DIGITAL ECONOMY

The internet and technological innovations paved the way for what we call the “Digital
Economy”. This is the result of billions of everyday online connections among people,
consumers, businesses, devices, data, and processes. The term refers to all economic
activities that occur over the vast network of stakeholders. This may come in the
form of transactions, trade, and the like.

GIG ECONOMY

In a gig economy, temporary, flexible jobs are commonplace, and companies tend
toward hiring independent contractors and freelancers instead of full-time employees.
A gig economy undermines the traditional economy of full-time workers who rarely
change positions and instead focus on a lifetime career. Technology is enabling gig
economy workers to take on extra or freelance work from anywhere in the world.

Driven by digital technology and high Internet penetration, more Filipinos are choosing
to freelance. According to PayPal’s 2018 Global Freelancer Insights Report, at least
2% of the Philippines’ population is said to be freelancers. The report also found that
84% of freelancers use a freelance online platform, such as Upwork and Freelancer.
Some of the many types of work Filipino freelancers are engaged with are data entry/
internet research (34%), virtual assistance (13%), and customer service (8%).
PayPal’s survey revealed that digital platforms provide ease and convenience for
freelancers to receive payments from clients overseas.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is it possible for someone like me to participate in the gig economy?


Yes, it is! The discussions in this section and succeeding topic aim to equip you with the
tools you need to seek employment opportunities in the Digital Economy.

Am I required to be a graduate or have a degree to participate in the digital economy?


A degree or any certification is an advantage, but not always a requirement, especially if
you are able to demonstrate the you have the skills needed to fulfil a certain position.

BASI C I NT E R NE T TOOLS
KEY CONCEPTS
EMAIL

BASI C I NT E R NE T TOOLS
Short for electronic mail,” e-mail” or “email” is information stored on a computer that
is exchanged between users over the internet. More plainly, e-mail is a message that
may contain text, files, images, attachments, or other information sent through a
network to a specified individual or group of individuals. In the professional setting,
a person’s email says a lot about them. This is why it’s important to emphasize
that email usernames should focus on the usernames and avoid alter egos and
unprofessional usernames like slay3r01.

VIDEO CALL

A video call is a call using an internet connection that utilizes video to transmit live
pictures between users. Video calls are made using a computer’s webcam or other
electronic devices with a video-capable camera, like a smartphone, tablet, or video-
capable phone system.

Google Meet is a recent tool released for free use available to all Google account
holders. This was previously exclusive to paid Google business accounts. Now, this
powerful tool is available to individual free account holders to use for work or play.
Start using Google Meet by accessing this link and invite participants by sending
meeting invites via email, link, or codes.

CLOUD STORAGE

The Cloud is a term used to describe services provided over a network by a collection
of remote servers. This abstract “cloud” of computers provides massive, distributed
storage and processing power that can be accessed by any Internet-connected
device running a web browser.

KEY CONCEPTS

BASI C I NT E R NE T TOOLS
Google Drive offers very powerful features but remains one of the easiest tools
to use. Not only does it offer the largest amount of free storage per account, it has
other notable features that you can utilize:

• App Compatibility: Google Drive, like many other Google apps, is designed to work
with other apps such as Gmail, Google Photos, Google Forms, and other office
solutions. This makes it easier to work not only across different devices, but
across different apps as well. A simple example of this will be the ability to save
files on your drive from attachments on your Gmail!
• Share your content: By sending access via email or links, you can provide specific
people with different levels of access. You can choose to restrict access, allow
some people to view the file, or allow other people to edit the file.
• Accommodate any file type: This includes photos, videos, presentations, PDFs
– even Microsoft Office files. No matter what type of file it is, everything can be
stored safely in Drive.
• Cloud-based collaboration: Because your files are online and can be shared,
it’s possible to work with different people on a single document, worksheet, or
presentation at once. All changes made by the different users are saved on the
cloud and appear in real time!

Start using Google Drive by accessing this link.

ONLINE COLLABORATIVE WORKING

Online collaboration is the process of connecting users digitally to communicate


or work in an online space. Online collaboration is usually supplemented using a
software system that lets team members chat using video, audio, or text. It is mainly
a way for companies to improve communication and bolster project efficiency.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is two-step verification necessary?


As part of the improved and proactive security measures of various websites and apps,
not only are users required to create a strong password, the processes of using two-step
verification also ensures that any log-in attempt is made only by the account owner. This is
why using other means to receive a code or pin, such as through SMS text, allows Google or
whatever other websites to confirm through other methods that it indeed you who is trying
to access your account.

Why is there a Waiting Room before you can enter Google Meet calls?
This is part of the enhanced security features of video chat platforms. In case other
uninvited users try to access the meeting link or code, the Administrator will have control
over whether or not these participants are able to access the room or not.

What other communications platforms can we use?


There are a lot of communications platforms out there. Some of them include the most
common such as FB Messenger, Viber, WhatsApp, and Zoom. Although some of these
platforms are household names, there are also brands like Microsoft Teams and Slack which
are popular with for professionals. There are many other platforms with unique features out
there that you can try.

Are there limits for the number of participants for Google Meet calls?
Under the free version, you can include up to 100 participants in your call.

THE JOB S EEKER’S TOOLKIT
KEY CONCEPTS
RESUME

A short document used to summarize a job seeker’s experience and qualifications for
a prospective employer. It includes contact information, work experience, education,
and relevant skills or certifications in support of a job application. A Curriculum
Vitae, or CV, contains a thorough listing of your professional, academic, and other
experiences. A resume is up to 2 pages at most while a CV can be longer.

THE JOB S EEKER’S TOOLKIT


Elements of a Resume
• Header & Contact Information - Allows potential employers to easily see your
name and contact details
• Professional Summary - Brief description describing your professional profile and
why you’re perfect for the position
• Skills - Clearly lists your qualities and capacities relevant to the position
• Work Experience - Details your career history or academic achievements for
employers to match your career experience with what they are looking for
• Education – Lists your academic credentials and achievements
• Additional Experience - Optional, but potentially a valuable summary of other
relevant credentials, certifications, interests, or achievements

What if I don’t have work experience yet?


Don’t worry if you don’t have any professional work experience to showcase just yet.
There are still a lot of achievements that you can feature on your resume. These are
some areas that you can highlight or emphasize on your resume:

• Internships • Awards and Recognition


• Volunteer Work • Courses and Certifications
• Projects • Skills
• Extra-curriculars • Education

11
KEY CONCEPTS

How do I make my resume stand out?


• Focus on reflecting accomplishments rather than tasks or responsibilities
• Craft accomplishments by choosing the first word of each bullet carefully
• Include a figure or a number to help quantify your accomplishments
• Make sure your accomplishments are relevant to the position

Resume Styles
• Chronological – lists work experience chronologically with most recent experience
first and shows progression
• Functional – Features skills and should only be used when you’re just beginning
your career, changing careers, if you have gaps in your work history, or when you’ve
frequently changed jobs
• There are also other resume writing styles and formats, such as a combination of
the formats above, infographic and video resumes, but this module will focus on
the more widely used versions.

12
KEY CONCEPTS

Mistakes to Avoid
• Including wrong Information – Putting incorrect contact numbers, emails, or other
contact information, or mislabeling the filename of your resume.
• Not triple checking – it’s not enough to double check your work, you have to make
sure that there are no mistakes that the HR or hiring manager can spot. It’s best to
check your work after around 24 hours to give yourself fresh perspective to review
your resume. This will allow you to see if the information you put on the resume

THE JOB S EEKER’S TOOLKIT


makes sense or if there are typographical errors or grammatical mistakes that you
must correct.
• Using inappropriate formatting – Make sure the filename is also professional.
Something like J Dela Cruz – Resume will do. Also, make sure that you don’t go
overboard with aesthetics and design elements. Your fonts and colors you use
should not be too whimsical or informal for a professional job application. When
in doubt, stick to the basics – black text, either Calibri, Times New Roman, or Arial
fonts.
• Including bio information – Information such as birthdays, complete addresses,
TIN numbers, or SSS numbers don’t need to be in a resume. Why? First, because
this information is very sensitive. If it gets into the wrong hands, it can be used
against you. Considering your resume serves as a document you’ll be sharing with
multiple companies as you apply, you only need to share relevant information such
as contact details and perhaps the city you’re based in. Birthdates, SSS numbers
and other sensitive information do not need to be included and can be provided
later, after you’re accepted for the position.
• Including skills or work experience you don’t have – This maybe self-explanatory.
Don’t lie on your resume. One way or another, the hiring manager will be able to
verify if you have the skills or experience that you list on your resume, whether
through background or reference checks, or during your interview.
• Making your resume too text heavy – Your resume is not the only one that the
hiring manager will be reading. As earlier mentioned, it’s best to be concise and
straight to the point. This way, your resume will be easier to appreciate and won’t
be too heavy for the reader.

13
KEY CONCEPTS

Mistakes to Avoid
• Including irrelevant information – A resume helps hiring managers better know
how fit you are for the job. It’s best to provide only the information relevant to
the job position. If you have professional social media accounts, such as Kalibrr
or LinkedIn, it would be a good idea to include that on your resume. However,
there’s no need to include personal social media information such as Facebook or
Instagram. There’s also no need to include unrelated hobbies or interests.

THE JOB S EEKER’S TOOLKIT


COVER/APPLICATION LETTER

A job application letter (also known as a cover letter) is a letter sent with a resume
to provide information on the applicant’s skills and experience. This letter is the
applicant’s chance to “sell” him or herself to an employer, explaining why the applicant
is an ideal candidate for a position.

ACTIVITY 2 SAMPLE RESUME ACTIVITY

1. Refer to the sample resumes on the next pages.

2. Imagine that you’re the hiring manager and you must go through hundreds of resumes
sent in by applicants for a job, which means you only have a limited amount of time to
go through this particular applicant’s resume.

3. In the next few moments, go through the sample resume.

4. Identify the following:


• What mistakes were made?
• Why are these considered mistakes?
• What can you do to address this mistake?

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Are there other ways or style to create a resume?


Yes, there are a lot of other ways and tools that can be included in the job seekers toolkit.

course, applicants need to set up and include important information in their profiles, and
upload their resumes. After setting up the profile and uploading the resume, click of a
button makes it easy to apply for job postings.

Can you send the cover letter as the email you use to endorse your resume?
Yes, you may. Although there are some formatting differences when using the cover letter
in the text of your email. Unlike a Word document or attachment, your contact details
should come after your email signature.

18
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Should I have a photo or headshot on my resume?


Ordinarily, it is not advisable to include your photo or headshot on your resume. In fact,
most would advise against doing do. This also helps assure that there are no biases from
the hiring manager and assessments are kept solely on the basis of the candidate’s
merits.

Should I include references on my resume?


Most professionals would caution against putting references on your resume unless it is
an explicit requirement of the employer. References are usually provided upon request in

THE JOB S EEKER’S TOOLKIT


a separate sheet.

How long are cover letters supposed to be?


Cover letters should not be more than one page long.

PROTECTION
KEY CONCEPTS
DATA PRIVACY

Data privacy is the right of individuals to have control over how their personal
information is collected and used. Many consider data privacy to be the most
significant consumer protection issue today. Growing technological sophistication
and the resulting types of date collected contribute to the need for a greater focus
on data privacy.

SPOOFING

Cyber criminals impersonating an email, website, company, or person. Phishing attacks


usual start through a spoofed email or communication to the victim.

PHISHING

Cyber criminal’s or hacker’s attempts to lure people into opening a link or attachment
to launch harmful content on your device.

CYBER SAFETY

The principle of cyber safety in the context of fintech revolves around the proactive
effort of users to ensure they keep their data and information safe. Although safety
features are enhanced and frequently updated to keep digital tools, from emails to
fintech apps, are kept safe from threats, an important principle of cyber safety is that
users themselves take steps to ensure they do not leave sensitive data vulnerable.
This includes ensuring passwords used are strong and up to date, not sharing personal
information, such as birthdays, account numbers, or other personal information, and
ensuring validation codes or PINs (including One Time PINs or OTPs) are not shared
with anyone so as not to compromise the safety of users. Users must also be on
guard against phishing attempts or attempts to steal such information through

27
KEY CONCEPTS

dubious or suspicious means. This may include the use of seemingly legitimate
text messages, emails, calls, or other communications that mimic or impersonate
legitimate institutions to collect sensitive information from users in order to commit
cybercrimes.

REPORTING A CYBERCRIME

Though we all hope we would never have to do so, there are agencies where you
can report cybercrimes if you feel that you are in danger or if you feel threatened.
The threat can come in many forms. It may not be in terms of fintech, or scams, but
a threat is still a threat. If necessary, you can file a report through the PNP Anti-
Cybercrime Group’s website, Facebook page, or mobile number to seek the assistance
of the authorities. Make sure you have as much information on your case as possible.
This includes dates, names, numbers, screenshots, emails, communications, photos,
and any other piece of evidence or information that you feel will be helpful in filling
your complaint.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Does my password have to be so complicated?


It shouldn’t be too complicated that even you can’t remember it. At the very least, your
password shouldn’t be easy to guess. It shouldn’t be something obvious like your birthday,
kids’ names, or current cellphone number. You may use something like your pet’s name
mixed with your favorite city, together with a couple of digits, special characters and
upper- and lower-case characters.

A N D PROTE CTI

28
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I know if my password is strong enough?


When you create an account and are prompted for a password, the website registration
page would usually have a set of requirements to strengthen your password. Some sites
even have a live meter showing how strong your password is as you type.

Can I not share verification codes or pins even with my most trusted contact or family?
The rule of thumb is that you shouldn’t share your password, pins, or verification codes
with anyone at all. If you feel that you may need to access your account through other
methods, you’re highly encouraged to use two-factor or two-step verification to secure
your account.

Why is two-step or two-factor verification important?


Using an additional step or factor to authenticate your log in or account access provides
websites and applications an extra layer of security to ensure that a log in attempt is
genuine. Ordinarily, this is done by sending a verification code to the user’s mobile number
(usually without messaging charges to the user), but there are also other methods such as
using an authenticator app.

What do I do if I fall for a phishing scam?


First, change your password and log in credentials immediately to lock the hacker
out of your account. The next step would be to contact the website or app that was
compromised. If this was a bank account, contact your bank. If it was your email, reach
out to Google through its help page. If the threat persists or worsens, you may want to
consider reaching out to the proper authorities.

How do I report cybercrimes to the proper authorities?


You may reach out to the PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP ACG) through their website and
other communication channels here. If you need to file a complaint, you may access their
e-complaint portal here.

Does the PNP ACG only accommodate hackers or fintech crimes?


No, they respond to other forms of cybercrimes as well. If the crime is conducted on the
internet, this is under their jurisdiction. This may include crimes such as harassment,
