  • Energy & Utilities

Meralco is the largest private sector electric distribution utility company in the Philippines covering 36 cities and 75 municipalities. Its franchise area of over 9,685 km2 is just 3% of the total land area of the Philippines, but accounts for 55% of the country’s electricity output. Meralco is a partner in nation building today and in the future. It is committed to ensure a reliable and sustainable energy supply, and to take affirmative action to support the country's growth. 

But Meralco is more than just a power distribution company.

It is home to a dynamic and driven talent community who shares the same passion towards building a brilliant future, and embodies our core values: excellence, customer centricity, sustainability, integrity, innovation, malasakit, and bayanihan. 

Meralco fully embracing sustainability as a way of life means the organization needs people who will run the organization with a sustainability mindset to ensure achievement of its sustainability objectives.  With “People” as one of the 4 pillars in building a sustainable organization, attracting and hiring talents of like-mindset has become a primordial hiring strategy.

In this aspect, Talent Resourcing has become a strategic arm of Human Resources in attracting and hiring such talents.  As the first point of contact of applicants and future Meralco employees, it is important that the recruitment process is ethical, fair, and inclusive. That is, the process provides equal opportunity to all candidates regardless of gender, socio-economic status, religion, age and ethnicity leading to a positive candidate experience and a strong employer brand for continuously attracting the right talents for the fast-changing competency needs of the organization. 

Diversity and inclusion in hiring is a conscious decision and when this is implemented, the company welcomes untapped talent into the company’s culture which may result to a bigger and better talent pool that encourages different perspectives and hopefully towards a more sustainable and profitable business.

What Graduates Say About Them
  • The mentorship provided by the people I got to work with. Additionally, I appreciated the efficiency and guidance of the program coordinators.
  • The compensation of Meralco is the best thing I can share about my company.
  • The people are all very welcoming, supportive and values each and every one. The environment around and inside the building is also great.
  • The team dynamic, especially in our branch of the business center, is very strong and welcoming. I never felt like an intern there due to the treatment they gave me. I also have the chance to experience an improved intern program that provides extraordinary activity, which encourages us to explore and still be creative in our respective work departments.
  • My experience as an intern within this esteemed organization provided an invaluable platform for learning and growth. During my tenure, I had the privilege of working closely with my supervisor, gaining profound insights into the evolving landscape of microgrid technology within the distribution sector. This experience fostered a profound comprehension of microgrid dynamics, shedding light on the key players shaping the industry's trajectory. What truly captivated me was the unwavering dedication of the Business Development Team, whose meticulous research and development efforts left an indelible mark on my understanding. Furthermore, the guidance and mentorship from my supervisors were exceptional. Their hands- on approach in imparting knowledge about Business Development and the intricacies of the microgrid industry were truly inspiring.
  • Among the facets of Meralco that struck me most profoundly was the uncompromising commitment to exceptionally high standards, which, as an intern, initially presented a culture shock. The weight of expectations bore down, creating an overwhelming atmosphere.
  • Sometimes, the camaraderie and work ethic devolve into complacency, however there is still a level of accountability amongst other personnel.
  • The worst thing about working at the company is there is a lack of communication sometimes.
  • I think the career progression may seem to be slow.
  • The distance from home and would like more f2f activities between interns.
