NBPNP Email for AIPP

The first week of April has passed and we haven't heard anything from NB staff. I'm thinking if they are just waiting for the Holy Week to pass or if they're still working with the designated employers for the new information session. Since I can't sleep anymore because of anxiety, I've decided to email the NB staff to ask for the designated employers.

I analysed their reply line by line as I want to make sure I'm getting everything correct:

There is no way an employee can apply directly to the designated employers as they are not providing information on who are already designated. So, does it mean they are really into giving information sessions then choosing from applicants who are eligible and have jobs that are in-demand to the province?

Temporary foreign workers and recent international graduates from the province are given priority but if they want to increase their population they must invite and hire foreign workers, too.

This is the part that talked about international information sessions and recruitment fairs. All those who registered and attended the information session last February have to wait for further announcements on when and where will the next sessions be and for what NOC will it be. 

I check the NB Information Session from time to time and today they updated their website and the next sessions will be in Dubai and Abu Dhabi in May. Companies will be looking for applicants under the following:

• Food service supervisors and managers (NOC 6311 and 0631)
• Home support workers (NOC 4412)
• Process Control Operators, Food and Beverage Processing ( NOC 9416)
• Labourers in Food, Beverage and Tobacco Processing (NOC 9617)

I am hoping and praying that the next sessions will be in Manila. May they next stop be in the Philippines since they are already in Asia. And I'm staying positive that they need foreign workers with NOC 0601 or 6221.
