First-Rate Cook In The Philippines?

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm asking the topic question on behalf of a good friend from Europe, who doesn't enjoy the benefits of an own notebook yet. He's currectly in Thailand but considers moving to the Phil's since the bureaucratic hurdles are getting higher and higher over there.

I myself have no idea regarding the current situation in the Phil's in this respect so I hope somebody in this community can clarify this.

My question is: Is there a realistic chance he could find a decent job as chef in a 4 or 5 star hotel / resort??

Actually regarding cooks for western food: Is there more demand for labour or more demand for such jobs??

What monthly/yearly salary he could expect just in case??

Is there any certain area in particular attractive for him??

Where to start the research for a job??

Regarding my own nationality (Austria) I could give pretty good advice to my friend but in case of the Phil's I'm clueless in this respect.

Any suggestions??

Thanks for your support

Johnny

My opinion is its possible.

Sites like these can give you an idea,

 
There are sites that specialize in overseas placements, just have to search for them.

Four of the major hotel resorts in or near Cebu City have western chefs that I know of. Getting a work visa in Philippines would be a major undertaking to say the least.

Also some of the large hotels have a careers page like this one,  http://sarrosahotel.com/cebu/events-updates/careers.html      Its really a matter of a lot of searching and trying to make contact with the right people.  :thumbsup:
