He was hired as Shifting mechanic in an apparel company that manufactures and distributes clothes, where he had also rendered his training. As thirsty in knowledge as he was, he transferred to another company in Canlubang as a Mold Set- Up Crew and later, at a Die Technology in Binan, Laguna.

Taking RME board exam is in itself a learning experience and so far, my biggest achievement. Hindi madali pumasa sa board lalo’t hindi mo alam ang lalabas sa exam at hindi rin suwertihan ang pagpasa, ngunit dahil sa turo ng review center, sariling sikap at turo ng mga kaibigan ay nakamit ko ang tagumpay. Salamat sa nag-guide at nagturo sa akin. Salamat sa school kung saan ako nagumpisa, ang DUALTECH. -- Jervin Mendellore, Top 7 @ RME Board
I learned this when I was still in high school and I perfectly agree. There would always be struggles and challenges in our lives. When we feel at times when we are near to giving up, when we feel that nothing good is coming out of our efforts, when we feel that anything we do are not producing good results, and when we feel we are near to saying, NO MORE! - Then it is time to go back to our GOAL, the reason why we did embark on this journey; this race, this desire to accomplish something for ourselves and our families. -- JAYVE C.
