TOP TEN JOBS IN THE PHILIPPINES

1. Technical Support Staff. This job falls under the Business Process Outsourcing Industry. These jobs may be in the form of
call center agents or email support employees.

If you want to join this industry, you better have knowledge on various technology applications such as the Internet, DSL,
telephone operations, and other technological stuff.

2. Call Center Agents. Although I have a thing against call center agents carelessly brandishing their half-baked American
accents in the MRT and other public places, call centers are still looking for more people to hire! This is perhaps the largest
industry in the Philippines nowadays. It is keeping the economy afloat! If you need a job urgently and you want to earn a lot,
go polish your English skills and your accent, write your resume and apply at Call centers.

I worked for a call center for a year and if you ask me, I’d rather not go back there. Heheh.

3. Customer Service Assistants. I don’t exactly know what customer service assistants do. Do they give water to customer
service agents in call centers? Do they help customers with what they want to do? Or are they the offline equivalent of call
center agents. If you don’t know about this, too, then you better Google it.

4. Information Technology Specialists. Although we fall behind India in terms of IT proficiency and the number of IT
practitioners that we produce, a lot of IT specialists are sought after by companies in the Philippines.

5. Production and factory workers. Next to the services sector (business process outsourcing, call centers, etc.), manufacturing is
also a big employer of Filipino workers. For people who want to work in factories, then you better ask around and apply to
these companies.

6. Salesladies. With a number of malls going up nowadays, salesladies are in demand. Salesladies are in demand not only in
our country but also abroad. At least, Filipinos who want to go abroad have more choices now.

7. Sales Clerks. Perhaps sales clerks are the male equivalent of salesladies. I really don’t know the difference. But if you’re into
sales and you can sell stuff, you might want to consider this.

8. Construction Laborers abroad. There seems to be a shortage of carpenters and builders abroad. That’s why they need
Filipinos there.

9. Receptionists. Buildings, offices, and other companies are in need of front desk associates and receptionists. So if you have
the looks, the personality, and the patience in dealing with customers, this might be the job for you.

10. Accounts executives and food attendants. There’s lots of money in sales. If you have the guts and the contacts, too, being an
account executive might be great for you. Likewise, the food business is always in demand. Food attendants are also in
demand.

This is but a partial list of the in-demand jobs. If you want the whole lot, head over to www.phil-job.net. If you also want to

Which course would be an in demand job in the future?

I'm a senior high school student from the Philippines and I'm about to go on to college but I'm undecided on what course should I take.
I came from an average family and I want a future job where I can have a big salary and a job with high demand.
So, which one of these is the most in demand in the future:
1. Nursing
2 Information Technology
3. Mechanical Engineer
4. Marine Engineering
Just as I stated earlier I came from the Philippines where large amount of nursing students graduated every year, so even if I took
nursing, would I have any chance in competing with them here in the Philippines and abroad??.... I worry that if I take nursing I may
not have any job at all because many students here in the Philippines probably 60% is nursing students...
What's your suggestion??? What should I take from the 4 choices above....

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

don't know much about 3 and 4 but the others would be a good choice.
1. whilst there may be a lot of people doing nursing in the Philippines there are are a lot of opportunities overseas. where i
come from in oz nurses are in fairly short supply and the hospital i worked in employed overseas nurses from many
countries. if you want to know more about this and the process go into my avatar under answers and on P.4 under
'moving to Australia for permanent' you will find out what is involved.
2. is an up and coming area and maybe not in as much demand however it probably does pay more than nursing.

http://ph.answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=Ap2t8TflgJoYLwprRJV1KB9yfRh.;_ylv=3?show=9rs5W11Raa

I don't know how nursing in the Phillipeans is but it's one of those jobs that's always in demand.
If I had to choose I'd say Mechanical Engineer, because I know one myself and they get paid a lot and are in demand.
The one I know works for the NYC train system and there are train systems all over the world in big cities. He gets paid a
lot even though he's still in his 20's and gets to choose to work nights too if he wants to. But mechanical engineers I think
work on more than just trains.
In the end you should really do whatever interests you the most.
