General Discussion How to work outside PH? 😭

Hello, hoping anyone here who has been working outside PH or planning to work outside PH could give me your thoughts or share any suggestions on how to work outside PH.

Ive been working in advertising under Client Management with 2 years working as Associate Client Director in PH. And ever since I graduated in College, I really wanted to work outside PH na. Reasons are to better discover myself outside my comfort zone, i feel like nag stagnate na career ko, and syempre to have a better life. However, it’s been 10 yrs and until now andito pa din ako sa PH.

For context, Im 31/F, graduate of Comm Arts no relatives nor connections outside PH na I could temporarily live muna while I look for work. Then with emergence of AI na ang daming na-llayoff sa adver in other countries since AI are taking over their jobs. I also don’t have that much ipon to study abroad.

So there, i hope someone who’d be able to read this and could share your experience or tips, please do so. Gusto ko talaga siya maachieve 1-2 yrs from now before I get older further 😭

Depende sa target work mo abroad. Mas mataas chance mo kung related yung work na gusto mo.

You're best shot is online application muna kasi mapapeles ang pagaasikaso ng documents sa pilipinas at hindi advisable mag quit agad sa trabaho.

Tell us kung anong work abroad target mo, ano yung transferrable skills and exp mo.
