I want to get a job abroad but I still am not sure what website to look from. I've tried 1) workabroad.ph 2) jobdb.com 3) monster.ph I'd like to know if you know of other websites I could look at.

First you need to decide where you want to work. If you know which country you would like to go, search for Filipino forums about that country. These forums usually gives websites for other "kabayans" to help them look for a job.

I'd like work in Saudi Arabia (Jeddah, Medina, Riyadh if possible) and US (Illinios) or Canada.

jaizhi you can try to look for work online like I do just be wary about scam recruiters. Just make sure to check the license of the agency at POEA's website first before even shelling out a single cent.

There are many scam overseas jobs online why not go personally to POEA they have many posting jobs there abroad. I heard that Australia are in need of professionals. Dubai like US is also not good destination to work because they are not yet recovered from the crisis.

thanks agv0419 for your reply. I've been looking at POEA website and been trying to see if there is any job available there but I'd try to visit their office too. Have a happy new year!

First thing you have to do is go to the POEA website which is the most safest and reliable way of finding an overseas job. It has many postings for specific jobs abroad. Just choose a country that interests you and maybe there's an opening for a specific job that meets your qualifications. The most important thing of all is that when an deployment agency asks for a placement fee, it should be no more than 5k. Hope this helps you in a little way.

hi there, why do you look for overseas jobs, i think it is good to work at home. i have friends work overseas, they told me that it does not better than work at home. they prefer to come back, but they can not. they have to stay there at least one year. this has been noticed in the contract. but if you really like to work abroad, one way you should try is that ask for your friends, such as you can ask people on myot.
