Philip Camposagrado – Virtual Assistant, Business Development Officer

I’m Philip Camposagrado, but you can call me Phil or Flip. I’m 30 years old. I am currently living in Baguio City. I was born and raised in Quiapo, Manila. The reason why I moved to Baguio is because of my girlfriend. We decided to live together and now have a 2-year-old daughter. I was an undergraduate at Universidad De Manila. I only finished my 3rd year of studying for a Bachelor of Science in Food Technology because of financial issues. That is why I landed my 1st job as a kitchen crew in Jollibee in 2015. I stayed there for six months; after that, I had an on-call/ freelance job at a photography company and was their background designer assistant. I lasted there until 2020.

In March 2021, I was hired as a customer service representative at Concentrix Baguio. I handled an e-commerce account, specialising in shipping and handling cases between customers and buyers. Around December 2021, we found out my girlfriend was pregnant with our first child, and I knew at that time I had to work hard so that we could save and get ready for my daughter’s arrival. I’m proud to tell you that I’ve been one of the top agents every month and always get incentives. That helped us save money.

My daughter was born in July 2022; honestly, it was hard for us to adjust at that time. So, I was thinking of letting go of my office job and switching to a work-from-home setup because my girlfriend had a cesarean operation and she cannot move well and needs help in taking care of our newborn since her mom cannot help her because she is fighting cancer and her dad died last June 2022. Then, November 2022 came. My girlfriend’s mom died. That is when I decided to resign from Concentrix and find a work-from-home job. It was hard, and it also took me months to find a job.

Then, I started as a virtual assistant in May 2023 under an agency. I learned much from being a virtual assistant because I work with a direct client. I’m always open to new opportunities and would love to learn new skills and grow professionally. As for my hobbies. I love playing video games; I play with my PC and sometimes my PS4. I’ve been a gamer since I was a kid. I’m also a very organised person, especially at our house. I like to clean and make sure everything is spotless. I’m also very hands-on with my daughter; I play and teach her in my free time. I’m proud that she already knew her 1,2,3s ABCs, animals, and fruits when she was around 1.5 years old.
