How To Know If A Job Ad Has An Approved Job Order?

Posted by: carmela

If you want to work abroad fast, it is not enough that you apply for overseas job openings. You need to apply for an overseas job opening with an approved job order from POEA. This is because there are many job openings that are posted only for the purposes of manpower pooling.

If you see the notice “For Manpower pooling only” in job advertisements then the agencies are only gathering applicant’s résumés that they can present to a prospective foreign employer. Agencies are allowed by the Philippine law to post these kinds of job openings.

So if a job opening has an approved job order, then it means that there is already an employer that may interview and hire you soon. Here’s how to know if a job opening has an approved job order:

You may see the list of approved job orders at the POEA website.

You can also call the POEA hotline numbers ( 7221144 or 7221155) to inquire.

You may send an inquiry to the agency that posted the job opening.

You can also browse WorkAbroad.ph listing of overseas jobs with an approved job order.


Good luck on your overseas job search!
