Destination Guide

The Philippines is an archipelago with opportunities in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan and other tourism centers. Hospitality, events, food and beverage, travel, retail and business services are important employment sectors, although opportunities and salaries vary considerably by island. Filipino culture is generally welcoming, family-oriented and community-minded, with English widely used in hotels and offices. Lifestyle ranges from fast-paced urban living in Manila to a more relaxed beach or provincial setting, with warm weather, varied cuisine and generally affordable daily costs outside major business districts. Foreign nationals normally need an employer-sponsored work permit and appropriate visa, commonly an Alien Employment Permit together with a 9(g) working visa; requirements should be confirmed with Philippine authorities. Relocating candidates should budget for housing, transport, health insurance and deposits, and verify whether accommodation, meals, flights or relocation support are included in the employment package.
