He amira.. a friend of mine from Dubai did it through finding sponsorship online the company processed the whole things for her.
do you have any family here or even a person who can be your sponsor.? You can also consider searching job offers online and start from there.

Your most welcome amira.. uy i'll be using english ha... for further reference po and to  encourage more participation to the discussion. 

with regards to employment you'll be happy to know many companies needed your expertise, businesses are growing and even new investors particularly from Asia are seeing profitability to today's economy. so professional employment is far easy here compare to neighboring country. (my opinion )

way of salary here is way too small not unless working in establish and bigger company. just imagine for typical Filipino employee to have 250 Bd - 500 bd a month about 25,000 - 50,000 peso without accommodation and transportation. the less accommodation here for bed spacing is 60 to 100 bd. and for monthly expenses you can spend 100 bd. ("tipid ka pa niyan").  see how you can live with the monthly salary.  be careful of signing contract many ended up with horrible situation and stock into it, you have to deal with it until you finish the whole two years or else pay the processing amount.

upon signing the contract the benefits must me clearly stated including accommodation, allowances, indemnity and all things agreed both parties. ("loko and mga yan kung minsan") just be vigilant.

regarding sa tourist visa i'll try to ask the embassy tomorrow. they might help us with regards to correct processing..

[b][b]hello Erwin,

thanks so much for enlightening me about the average salary bracket in bahrain for filipino workers....Thats is why i prefer to enter Bahrain using tourist visa coz i have a better chance of getting a better paid offer unlike here in the philippines where most agencies barely provide me with a monthly salary just enough for me to make ends meet..i wish I can have more details if given a chance to go there  thru tourist visa ..if not.. i might try qatar..or will stick to bahrain I actually found out the hotel offers me like 180 bd ONLY..That usually includes accommodation and food not sure yet i haven't seen the contract but that is what the agency told me.

have a nice day and all the best..
