Manila, Cebu, and Davao are often cited as major IT career hubs. However, it is worth noting that Cagayan de Oro, the Philippine’s aspiring fourth metropolitan area, presents similar opportunities for aspiring IT professionals in the northern capital of Mindanao. Thus, individuals, especially employees, can expect many job opportunities and high possibilities of getting accepted in their desired careers.

On the other hand, information and communications technology (ICT) is one of the thriving careers in the city. Numerous IT and BPO jobs are offered such as virtual assistants, digital marketers and many others. So, if you’re tech-savvy and happen to live in Mindanao or near the island, it’s your chance to give it a shot and unleash your IT skills!
