Finding jobs in Manila for in-laws

[Michael Ruffin 1]

Hello!

Is there any place or job resource available to help get my 30+ in laws jobs in Manila? They just have high school diploma. I know good paying jobs are hard to get without 2 years of technical school or college unless you speak very good english and work at the call center. There is has to be a need for janitors, cleaning people or garbage man. I am assuming you don't need an advance degree to clean toilets.

Thanks,

Michael

Sorry to say but you may be assuming to much. Each year in the Philippines there are tens of thousands of new college graduates. Generally speaking the average person is already out of the work force by the age of 27, mostly because you have to reapply for your job every 6 months and there is always people waiting to take your place.

Are there 30 plus of them or are they older than 30?

I am not discouraging you, but there's a lot of 4 years course college degree, 2 years course vocational college level that WERE graduate in Some and other reputable schools that do not have a JOB. And may I remind you that now is March, lots of fresh newly graduates will need a JOB too.

Nowadays here in the Philippines it is hard to find a high paying company. They want college level that can speak English well, sometimes they want your credentials from school to submit to them, others have height limit, age limit etc..

Then the minimum wage now is I think 485 pesos per day ($12 per day) but others give only 150-300 pesos per day ($3-$6 per day). And yes that's the reality.. There are some MANILA rate (485/day) and provincial rate (100-300/day) but sometimes in Manila there is also paying 150-300 a day in Manila area.

If your in-law is really have a determination in finding job, there are multiple companies in CAVITE just find the EPZA or GATEWAY, in that area there's alot of company hiring HS grad.. some works are garments, electronics and etc.

or try to apply in some convenience store or foodcart stores as cashier etc.

In these time, he/she should not be too picky in what kind of job. Remember it is always up to a person whether he/she will survive and be successful in life even if it's just a break even for awhile, it's always a person's choice..

Goodluck to your in-law..

If they have great construction skills or a commercial drivers license there are some jobs withiut college degrees. Other than that, 4 year degree and young is what they will hire and they are allowed to descriminate.. Better to buy them a business in the province...

Newspaper job ads are good for this. I must say that if YOU have to be asking around for them, they don't have a chance against folks who have been in Manila for a while and are more assertive about their job search.
