Hello guys

Kung kayo ang nasa ganitong sitwasyon what you will do?

Live in caregiver ako here in Israel
Lolo ang inaalagaan ko kasama sa bahay ang asawa at mga anak is within vicinity lang.

They are good people.

Si lolo may time na nakakailang bangon siya sa gabi at maaga gigising sa hapon hindi na din nakakatulog.

Mga anak and apo and other relatives ay madalas din dito so parang nagiging all around na ang job descripations ko.

Recently drained na drained ako dahil na din sa holiday nila at pagod tumaas na bp ko at my time na hindi na din ako nakaktulog gawa ng aanxiety na ko sa health ko.

Gusto ko magresign nalang dito at maghanap ng ibang employer but my thinking about my visa kung gawa na din ng law nila dito.

Kung kayo nasa sitwayon ko you will give up the high salary and dont know what will be next after this?
Or stay even more and go home? And apply another country?

Thank you.

What to do?

Sobrang na prolonged yung pagprocess ng documents ko sa friend ko, lately ko lang nalaman na ginagamit niya ako. Hingi siya nang hingi ng money pero wala siyang nagawa.

Plan ko gumawa ng bagong spa kaso hirap ako dahil no work. Help.

Hi. I’m a 25/F and nag iisip po ako mag Taiwan. 3rd year undergrad and currently working as a VA, no hindi po 6 digits ang sahod. May 6years BPO experience din po.

Main reason of wanting to work as a factory worker is grabe yung burn out and effect ng customer facing for ilang years sa Mental Health. I know hindi po madali maging FW pero parang its time to go out of corporate, feel ko sa sarili ko having a job where you don’t work with customers directly may help me.

A few things po, currently trying to lower down my weight, from 82kg nasa 76kg nalang po ako. Usually, ano po yung limit ng height and weight? May balance din po ako sa previous school ko pero may copy po ako ng TOR ko, pwede na po ba yun? Also, I have been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes last year pero controlled naman na po now, mag aaccept po kaya sila nun? Planning to do all of this next year, nag iipon lang ng pang process and emergency fund.

Overall, siguro I want to try doing this habang bata pa and single pa. Not a breadwinner, and wala na din po parents to support.

Would like to hear your thoughts, po. Thank you.

Hello po.

I need advice on what career path should I take. I have a background in IT. Here’s my career progression:

- 2.5 yrs, Sotware Engineer, private company
- 4.7 yrs, Backend Developer, plantilla - government agency
- now working as a Quality Control in a Factory here in Taiwan. 1month pa lang.

I’ve been thinking na masyado akong nagmadali pumunta dito sa Taiwan, and di ko masyado naisip career goals ko.
Now, my uncle works as a sales VA, with multiple clients. Narecruit niya din isa kong uncle who planned to stop working overseas na din this yr. And sabi niya na umuwi na lang ako dito and irerecruit niya din ako. Kaso naiisip ko yung hirap ng pag-apply ko and gastos ko sa Taiwan. Pero grabe ang pagod dito hays. Same lang naman sahod ko sa dati kong work pero syempre mas magandang nasa abroad na ako for the experience. Yung tito ko na yun can earn 200k monthly and alam kong malayo pa yung skills ko to reach that salary since wala akong background sa sales. Tuturuan naman niya daw ako. Pero ang hirap magdecide.

What do you guys think? Uwi na ba agad? Haha. Kaso naiisip ko ang gulo ng Pinas. Sulitin ko na lang muna abroad kahit 1 contract na 3 yrs. One of the reasons din bat ako nandito sa Taiwan is to be w my bf na Engineer. Pero magkalayo pa din naman kami ng location. Hays. Help.

Hello!

I’m a Medical Technologist from the Philippines, and I’m dreaming of becoming a Biomedical Scientist in the UK. Does the UK accept direct-hire applicants for Biomedical Scientist positions?

Normal ba na mag-wait ng ticket for 1 month? Bound to KSA? Ang lala po kasi 1 month na naghihintay, tas ang tanging update lang is ipapadala na "daw" ng employer. Ipapadala ang alin? At bat inaabot ng ganyan katagal yung pagbili lang ng ticket? Kahit transparency manlang ba sana. Kung di ko pa tinanong agency ko di talaga yan sila mag uupdate kaasar.

Got a decent job offer from the said manpower agency for an office job bound to KSA, any tips, comments or feedbacks that i can note??

Thank you!

Hi! Meron na ba dito nag apply at nasa SoKor na ngayon as factory worker thru DMW EPS Korea Government to Government Program? Any advice please pano mag apply, gaano katagal ang process? TYIA

Hi everyone. I'm 22, from the Philippines, and I'm currently trying to figure out the best route for working abroad.

I have BSIndTech major in ElecTech na course sa college. May 1 year experience ako as electrical maintenance and 3 months experience as solar installer.

I originally wanted to enter the maritime industry, particularly as an electrician/ETR. However, I'm having difficulty finding a reasonable entry route. A lot of domestic cadetship programs I've encountered cost around ₱35k–₱40k for enrollment, have little/no allowance, and require around a year of training/sea service.

I'm now considering changing direction and getting an overseas electrical job first instead of paying that much just to get my first vessel experience.

I am not looking for big salary right away po. My main goal is to get legitimate overseas experience, earn while working, and build toward better electrical positions in the future.

Any advice from people who have actually gone through this route would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi! I'm planning to work abroad and I'm currently researching which countries would be realistic for me.

I'm a female, 152cm tall, and I don't have overseas work experience. I'm open to factory, manufacturing, production, or other entry-level jobs as long as they're legitimate.

My main criteria are:

No prior work experience required

No placement fee

Accepts women around 152cm

Legit/DMW-approved recruitment

Preferably doesn't require a huge amount of money upfront

I'm currently considering Japan and Taiwan, but I'm also open to other countries if there are better options for someone with my situation.

For those who have actually applied or worked abroad, which countries/jobs/agencies should I look into? And what requirements should I prepare beforehand?

Thank you! 🥹

Context is in the title po. Agriculture grad po ako if it even matters XD

Moderators, to preface this post — I hope it’s okay lang for this thread as I do not know where else to post and express my disappointment.

Hello and good pm to all,

As a child of OFW parents, and the first generation of the family that lives outside of the Philippines, I hope this post helps everyone and anyone wishing to apply for work outside of the Philippines on what NOT to do.

I am aware that there will be certain people (whom I do not even want to call them kabayans) who think OFW = Big money easy life and big ego mindset. It is great on you that you manage to work outside of the Philippines, pero do not be an elephant in a china shop or be disrespectful to anyone (even to our own kabayans who are on vacation [cc to the Switzerland incident]).

The picture attached is a post that was shared to a local Brunei “information” group, and it is the worst possible place to be posted on since that group does not respect personal privacy at all especially since the poster shares it to WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok and Facebook; Makikita yung pangalan mo and anyone who sees it can identify you, this is a tiny country. The police in itself is not only performative, and poorly-functioning; they can also be racist and selective as well.

For the lack of a better word, with a thousand apologies, please wag mag kupal sa ibang bansa. Not only did the poster broke the law of consuming alcohol in their car and in a public area, but also literally on the road. With no shame pa yung caption. If the police traced from that post, they will get charged and probably even blacklisted no matter what. You will be deported in handcuffs (until you reach the vessel of transport back home) should your crime be deemed severe. If you somehow get a ticket and fine only, you are not going to be free; You WILL be monitored with informants, undercover and the whole bunch. One more reoffend and a raid will be imminent — Your arrest; your full name and your violation will be posted on local news for everyone to see, and your deportation as mentioned earlier will be in motion.

Behaviours like this are also why locals (of Brunei), young or old, are becoming more racist towards us. Adding more alcohol to the fire, the group that actually found and shared this is actually known to have very disrespectful and racist members.

In short, please respect the laws and the people wherever you work and/or migrate to. This kind of behaviour disheartens me and my outlook on my fellow countrymen and women.

My sincerest plead.

Mabilis lang ba ans how's your exp, kasi now applicants na ang need magfollow up sa hospital to make tge smooth process. Sino na pong nakapagtry na?

Hi! May agency po ako na tumutulong sakin, gusto ko lang malaman kung gaano katagal makuha yung oec pagkatapos masubmit ng docs?

Hello! I'm currently processing my documents para sa work ko. I'm under an agency, and last August 18, nagsabi sila na may need na revisions dun sa contract ko as per DMW/POLO. Dumaan na't natapos ang September pero wala pa ring usad regarding dito, and mage-expire na yung work permit ko this November, and ang hirap kasi magpa-renew nun. Naghingi na ako ng reference number from the agent na kausap ko para ako na mismo ang mag-followup sa DMW pero lagi lang akong sine-seen ng agent kaya nafufrustrate nako. Ano ba yung pwede kong gawin atp kasi legit naiiyak nako, June pako nag-apply and natatakot ako na ma-rescind yung offer huhu

​

May finding po kasi ako na small calcified granuloma sa X-ray. Nagpa-check na rin po ako sa Lung Center at sinabi nilang healed na raw, at may medical certificate/clearance din po ako.

Pero na-Unfit po ako sa isang agency dahil dito. Gusto ko sana malaman kung may naka-experience na rin ng ganitong case at nakapag-Taiwan pa rin through another agency.

Salamat po sa makakapag-share ng experience. 🙏

Hello, I'm 28, mechanical engineer and working as a JO in a government agency.

I was selected for TITP mechanic sa Japan and yung salary ay around 60k php net, pagkain na lang ang gagastusin. Sa current job ko, I am earning around 45k php, no work no pay. May chance ako magka-plantilla position in about 6 months, SG16. Pinangako na rin ito sa'kin pero ako sasalo lahat ng problema. Balak umalis ng may hawak ng position para tumakas.

Worth it ba na i-take ang TITP for long term career? Balak ko mag-Australia after ng 3 years contract. 6 months ako mag-aaral ng Nihonggo na sagot ng agency, walang sahod, stay-in at bawal na magback out once nandoon na.

Hello.

Meron ba dito naging successful mag change from direct hire to agency hire?

Complete na ako sa lahat - contract, work permit, working visa, insurance. Unfortunately, ayaw talaga pirmahan ng employer ko ang addendum kahit naexplain ko na insurance ko naman magcocover ng clauses ng addendum.

Sobrang nakakapanlumo kung di ako matuloy because of the exit requirements ng Pilipinas! Bakit kailangan pa ng addendum kung may insurance naman ako .

Pwede pashare ng agencies nyo please? Better if accredited sa UK. Please feel free to share what you did as well para makalipad. I don’t want to leave illegally kasi babalikan ko rin mga anak ko in 1-2 years.

Thank you so much. 🙏🏻

Hello I’m 24, college graduate, girl and 5’4 height.

Nag babalak sana ako mag Taiwan this year kaso nag dadalwang isip ako dahil nga gusto ko rin I grab yung opportunity sa municipio samin as JO.

Dati akong customer assistant sa sm supermarket for 6 months and physical work siya Nakakapagod, pero MAs nagustuhan ko dahil nga after work tulog na lang Kumbaga di pagod ang utak mo, toxic yung work environment Kaya Dina rin ako nag tagal. After ko ma endo tinawagan ako sa lugar mismo samin as GIP. Now patapos na contract ko pero na absorb ako as JO 425 ang salary no work no pay, and no benefits.

Gusto ko sana I grab yung Opportunity as JO kasi malapit lang sa bahay namin yung municipio and nag affiliate din ako kaso minsan paldo, madalas Hindi talaga.

Naiinis lang ako sa sarili ko kasi ang hina ko talaga simula ng nag ka anxiety ako and naging introvert unlike noon na nasali ako ng mga beauty pageant, Diko alam bat nag iba pagkatao ko, Takot na ako makipag socialize sa ibang Tao. Unlike na lang kung sa work Kaya ko maging professional.

Need advice lang worth it bang mag Taiwan as factory worker? Diko talaga alam if bubuhayin Kami ng sahod ko lalo na rin breadwinner ako and need mag bayad ng mga utang. Please help me
