I am a Kenyan, graduated with bachelors in civil engineering in 2011, I am also part time Ruby on Rails programmer, though am am still a novice in Ruby on rails. I love programming.

I want to come to Philippines, and look for a job.

How do I go about Visa processing and will I get some job?

I appreciate your help in advance.

Hi Simonfree,

Welcome on board

I suggest you read the Visas for the Philippines and the Work in the Philippines articles so that you may gather as much information as possible.

All the best,
Bhavna

Hi Simon,

I understand that you would like to work here in the Philippines and acquire a visa. There are two types of visa here in the Philippines: the 9(g) or Pre-arranged Employment Visa and the 9(d) or Treaty Trader's Visa and types of work permit: Special Work Permit, Provisional Work Permit and Alien Employment Permit. You check this link that will redirect to answer in Quora with a brief overview of all the above mentioned visas and permits. Hope this helps you.

Regards,
Maro
