Welcome on the forum herbert1984 ;)

I will suggest you to post an advert as well the job section of Philippines classifieds, Section>Jobs.

Let me seize this opportunity to convey my congratulations for your wedding.

thankyou for that and thankyou for making me feel welcomed
Hi, i guess you can find a job as call center agent as you are a native speaker of English but you must have qualification in Information technology and a degree in university/college. Finding a blue collar job here is hard even to Filipinos especially after Graduation month. Best for you is to invest or have business here in Gardening or in landscaping. The Nueva ecija is a province well  nice place you have to come for  a while and see yourself the place. Filipino are warm at heart and you can communicate to them, well not everyone is fluent but they can communicate to foreigner. Regarding the peace and order situation, you must take extra safety measure for yourself and avoid travel to some of southern Phlippines area. Keep in touch if you want some info about living here..

regards,
honeyclotte
my boyfriend is from nueva ecija too... if you would like to live here, i suggest u live in manila rather than nueva ecija.. you will find more job opportunities in manila
I agree with Honeyclotte. Garden centre grower and builder would not be good job opportunities as there are plenty of people in that industry who make very little.  There are plenty of English speaking people in Manila that the call centers are staffed. Its in the other languages that need help.

Enjoy you marriage and relax. If you need to earn a living to live in RP, then strongly consider not moving here as you will not only need money for food, but there is an expectation to feed her family as well.  Maybe you can visit for a while first.
