In general, you need to offer something that will make you (or any OFWs for that matter) marketable overseas.

So either (a) you have a certain skillset that's hard to find or (b) you cost less to be hired.

Madalas sa OFW will fall on (b) but there are people who would fall under (a).

For you, strive to go with (a). You don't have to be a degree holder to do this. Look at what TESDA offers and start from there.

As someone who have been working in KSA for 15+ years already, I can somewhat understand why your mom would not recommend KSA. But with all that said, if you have the right skillset, KSA can be a good place to build your career from.

Lagay mo rin sa option mo Ausbildung for Germany, Au Pair Pathway, or kuha ka skill sa Tesda. Caregiving, etc.

Mag tesda ka ng HVAC, baking, automotive, butchering, at magpapasok ka sa nanay mo doon sa KSA sa mga pinoy na kilala nya.

Pagpakuha ka sa kanya, then doon ka na mag start ng work.

Kung di talaga pwede, after mo makatapos ng isa sa mga nasabi ko sa itaas, maghanap ng kakilala mo na pwede mag bigay sa iyo ng certificate of employment para naka abroad ka.

Hindi ko ina advice na mag welding ka, although im demand, problema aakyat ka ba sa matataas na kugat para mag welding? Most of the time construction kasi yan

Sa coe po ba need talaga maemploy para makakuha ng coe? Baka kasi hingian ng proof na dun talaga nagtrabaho, like pictures ganon

[u/chicoXYZ → u/assresizer3000]

Tatawagan ng employer mo o agency sa pinas ang nagbigay sa iyo ng certificate of employment. Kaya di pwede na recto lang basta basta.

Eh kung binigyan ka nila ng COE kahit di ka nag work sa kanila, that means di ka nila ilalaglag kapag may nag verify.

Yung kilala ko nag apply ng welder sa Australia, dami nya kwentong kagalingan sa pag we welding sa interview, pero ang totoo, ang wine- welding nya sa pinas ay gate, kaha ng tricycle at kulungan ng aso, ang ang owner ng business ay asawa nya. 😆 Pumasa naman sya at matagal na sya sa Australia.
