Until recently, I have always viewed the word “customizable” as an extremely positive attribute. In my mind, I used to view customization as a way for the customer to get exactly what he/she wants. After chancing upon a past Gartner Magic Quadrant report, I noticed that being customizable was viewed in a negative light. This caught me off guard as I have always viewed the word in a positive manner. There are obvious factors that accompany something being “customizable,” such as a higher price, that is not appealing or a lower price, but the quality is compromised, but it also got me thinking about the hidden negatives of customizability. Because my information technology background is not as extensive as a developer, I decided to view the situation from a different instance.

I remember a couple of years back when I thought it was the coolest thing in the world to have a custom-made Corvette Stingray. What could go wrong? Matte Black body paint with red and white outline and highlights, Royal-Lip Hyper Black MXR-F Rota equipped with Achilles Radial Tires, Black Metal EVO 8 Engine and a Black Rear Spoiler. It’ll have everything I desire in a sports car. In my mind, I knew what I wanted. I knew what I liked. I knew what looked cool. Right? Wrong. So wrong. I would venture to say that I designed the ugliest Corvette car ever made. It is humorous to think I knew exactly what I wanted, yet in reality, I had no idea what I needed. I think this is true for a typical customer in any setting, and this is another reason that customizability can certainly be negative. Configurability is a different story. A trusted and reliable partner recruitment agency in the Philippines implementing and executing a recruitment campaign that is configurable and easily achieved is like an easy-going person who can fit in with any crowd. Obviously, companies will have basic needs and requirements to fill internal professional vacancies, but a well-planned recruitment campaign executed by a highly effective partner recruitment agency in the Philippines will have a solid base that does not require or necessitate customizability.

Containing about half of the proven global oil and gas reserves, the countries in the Middle East and North Africa have a solid base for their economies in the petroleum extraction and refinement industries. Most, if not all of these countries have been investing huge amounts in recruitment and talent acquisition, making sure they get the right people to do the job.

But what are the basic Professional, Technical Educational Benchmark of Offshore Operations Personnel that Middle East and North Africa Oil and Gas and Engineering companies are looking for and require?

To begin any evaluation of any person under the updated Safety and Environmental Management Systems knowledge & skills assessment requirements, one must start with the initial professional or technical training the employee received which qualifies him in his profession.

Quite a few local accredited colleges have a 2-year Petroleum Technology or Industrial Technology associates degree which qualifies them as a production operator and or instrument/control system technician on board production facilities. Many local vocational-technical schools have a six-month accredited Rig Hand training program which thoroughly prepares them for various skills around the drilling rig.

Many accredited colleges offer electronic and mechanic courses. They offer a large variety of training and certification courses of the same caliber. Yet for some reason, some companies in the petroleum and engineering industry has pressured regulatory compliance affinity groups in their region to write in the requirement clause of “experience in lieu of education certification” as being acceptable to operate a $100 million to a $1 Billion-dollar asset which generates millions of dollars daily, and has the potential to cause death and destruction on a regional wide area over the MENA population.

The challenge here for Oil and  Gas and Engineering companies in the MENA region is to find the right candidate with an all-encompassing qualification – proven educational background equipped with certifications and experience and is most qualified to perform the job. There is no longer a need to choose one over the other. Let us help you, we at Rensol Recruitment and Consulting will ensure that we source the most appropriate and fitting personnel for you.

There is a shift occurring in the Middle East business world, especially for the retail and hospitality industries, that all companies need to take into consideration as they move forward. As Generation X move towards retirement and a less cumbersome lifestyle, more jobs will open for millennials. In addition to this generational shift, the retail and hospitality industries are growing and booming, so there are even more job positions to fill. The problem lies in the lack of millennials in the Middle East region moving in to fill these jobs. Typically, it seems that today’s generation leans towards white collar jobs, whereas Gen-X was more on the blue-collar jobs.

With this in mind, all Retail and Hospitality companies in the region need to focus on finding the appropriate people for the upcoming vacancies. Since there is a shortage of talents in the local population, it is high time for MENA Retail and MENA Hospitality to get skilled workers elsewhere. Incidentally, countries in the Asia Pacific, specifically, the Philippines has proven to be a gold mine for talents.

Now, these industries in the Philippines are big but not as successful and prosperous as their Middle Eastern counterparts. Therefore, a lot of talents who specializes in these fields and have a considerable amount of experience either wait for local opportunities in their field of expertise that might not arrive or chooses to work in a completely different field. Hence, they are wasted. Fortunately, there are a number of reputable partner recruitment agencies in the Philippines such as Rensol Recruitment and Consulting, Inc. who can find and are able to source these talents on stand-by and deploy them to the companies needing their service.

Ultimately, if these two industries in the region want to fill the gap in workers, they need to update themselves and come to terms with the talent acquisition trade of this age. Overseas recruitment is a must. The way of hiring and staffing must be updated.

It is due season for the retail and hospitality industries to catch up with the next generation of workers.

Overseas Recruitment and Talent Sourcing is a heavily regulated industry which needs to be followed effectively for proper and risk-free operations. In the Philippines, this line of business constantly faces the challenge of meeting rising quality standards and complying with rigorous regulatory requirements. These increase in interconnected processes between the foreign employer and the Philippine Government makes it extremely difficult, almost impossible, for them to administer direct hiring.

One of, if not the major hurdle that foreign principals face when recruiting Filipino talents is dealing with, adhering to and accomplishing the numerous Accreditation Documents that the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration requires for their approval as a legitimate employer of Filipinos for overseas opportunities and these are as follows:

  1. Special Power of Attorney (SPA) – Is a Letter of Authorization limited to the recruitment, processing and documentation of Filipino workers where they are giving their partner recruitment agency in the Philippines the authority to represent their company.
  2. Manpower Request Letter – A document specifically addressed to the POEA, stating the company’s intention to hire Filipinos and acknowledging every single parameter of the Philippine Government in reference to employing local workers.
  3. Recruitment Agreement – Document stating the agreement of the foreign principal and the partner recruitment agency in the Philippines.
  4. Copy of Commercial Registration – Is a copy of the employer’s business license with English Translation.
  5. Copy of Standard Employment Contract – Sample specimen of the company’s employment contract. Includes provision of housing accommodation, food, overtime/holiday/rest day rate/payment, as previously approved by the POEA.
  6. Company Profile and Location Map

In special cases wherein, the principal chooses to change their partner recruitment agency in the Philippines, they will also need to accomplish a revocation letter to nullify the above-mentioned documents with their previous representative.

All these documents must be authenticated and verified at the Philippine Embassy nearest the employer. And after accomplishing this phase, then comes the other laborious and mind-numbing steps of the hiring process.

In a nutshell, accrediting a foreign employer with the POEA alone is tedious and this poses a great challenge for principals to acquire the quality manpower that they desire. If the employer fails to accomplish at least one of the aforementioned documents, the rejection of the recruitment or even the breakdown in relations between them and the Philippine government is probable. So, it is that much important for foreign employers to choose the right partner recruitment agency in the Philippines that will ensure that this undertaking gets accomplished.

We at Rensol Recruitment are here to assist and make this phase and the whole recruitment process less painful for you.
