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.

Conclusion
At the end of the on-the-job training period, we experienced many things
and learned from it. We gained knowledge about the work in a radio broadcasting
company. We learned how competition happens among radios stations, their
strategies, on how to conduct a survey, how to please the listeners, and we also
learned how to operate a board in a DJ booth. It is very important to learn these
things because these are the things essential for us to know about this kind of work.
Throughout the training, we experienced dealing with different kind of
people around us, with the listeners, bosses and most especially with our co-
workers. It is important to a group of workers to have camaraderie so that they can
work well and attain their goal.
Through this OJT, I saw the difference when you are in school and in the
real world. Most of the time you just learn theoretically in school while in real
world, you actually experience and apply what the trainers taught to you.
