QA Tester resume guide (Philippines)

QA recruiters look for how you test: manual or automated, what kinds of applications, and how you report what you find. Clear writing matters, because bug reports are your main output.

What to highlight

  • The applications you tested: web, mobile or APIs
  • Manual testing, test case writing and regression testing
  • Automation tools you used, such as Selenium, Cypress or Postman
  • Bug tracking and reporting
  • Working with developers in agile sprints

Questions

Can I get a QA job without automation experience?

Yes. Many roles start with manual testing. Show careful test cases and clear bug reports, and mention any automation you are learning.

Should I include sample bug reports?

You cannot share employer bugs, but you can link a portfolio with test cases and bug reports for a public app.
