Japan set to hire 1,000 expat workers 

If you are looking for a job, keep an eye out for these openings.

Filipinos willing to take up caregiver jobs in Japan will be able to do so in the next few months. According to the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA), applicants should watch out for around 300 to 1,000 caregiver job openings coming from licensed recruitment agencies.
While, in his report on Balitanghali on Thursday, GMA News' JP Soriano said guidelines for the Japanese government's Technical Internship Training Program (TITP) have been finalised and are expected to be signed for implementation in September. The salary under the TITP is yet to be disclosed but is care workers in Japan are expected to get more compared to other Asian and European countries. However, POEA said it was possible that the salary would start at no less than P50,000 to P70,000 per month.
The POEA deputy administrator Jocelyn Sanchez added that apart from finishing a course on care-giving, applicants are not necessarily required to be fluent in Japanese. She further said that the language training fee will be taken care of.
Besides the TITP, POEA is also coordinating with the Chinese government regarding 1,000 jobs for Filipino English teachers and has advised job-seekers to monitor www.poea.gov.ph for job offers and beware of bogus recruiters, according to GMA news online report.
