As someone who is working on a fast phase job being persistent play a major role in your daily job.
By the way just to give you an idea I'm currently working in a Manpower service provider. When you say Manpower it's basically providing our client a consistent resources of employees ready to do job in their business.
It's not easy being consistent while simultaneously being persistent. I'm talking about working your butt to deliver your promise batch of applicants to our client.
Almost everyday I'm bombarded with phone calls from different client getting their request updates. As a recruiter you should have a ready answer for those updates to prevent clients being upset.
It's my job and you got no excuses for not doing your job very well. While there's so many activities coming up every hour, You should always kept in mind what is the priority that you should be accomplishing.
I just want to feature an applicant who just got listed for deployment on one of our clients her name "Roda" she is a single mom only around 22 years old.
I was just impressed how persistent this person is to get a job. She was just carrying a small amount of money just a transportation allowance on her way to our office. She got no budget for lunch and that was tough, it's not easy, the process she's going through just to get a job is not very easy for most of us who had a pocket money.
She told me that she sold her cell phone not a smart phone but just a keypad phone which is starting to get phase out in the market.
She sold her phone to a tricycle driver and that was a heck of a decision. Sacrificing her communication to her child's food and additional allowance for daily expenses. She was about to leave the office and came back after few minutes telling that she has a certain skill particularly doing "massage therapy" ask me and she was darn good and she knows what she do.
She already selling her service to me even few days ago while I'm processing her papers and believe me she really meant it!
So she came back and offering me a massage. Initial thought was "okay I'll give her a try". So we drive our way home from our office a 1 hour and 30 minutes ride.
Ask my parent I'm letting Ms. Roda to give them a massage... Boom and the 3 of us my dad and mom was given a great massage.
After a few hours I took her to the nearest pick up point via jeep to get home at Binan Laguna. I hand her my payment for her services and off she goes.
And that's how very persistent she was making a living just to get to another big opportunity thru employment.
I tell you it's not a typical day with most people around us offering their services to people they don't really knew.
I knew this story might give us literally an example how to be persistent not to quit and still follow all those dream and wish in life.
Getting things done and achieve it is not walk in the park it always requires courage and toughness to get through life.

Life in Dubai
Just landed here in Dubai 5 days ago now.
Dubai is one of the 7 Emirates within U.A.E.
Just 2 hours bus travel from Abu Dhabi is Dubai absolutely a place you don't want to miss visiting around the world. Known for its many famous landmark Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah and many more.
These places are great tourist spot. You can't help yourself taking pictures with it.
Living in Dubai was I can say pretty convenient, some food are that cheap and affordable, travelling places are easy as long as you're already familiar, traffic are not that congested, every intersection almost have traffic lighy and people are in a fast phase mode.
You can note that expensive things around here is what they called DEWA or Dubai Electric and Water Authority.
Most places here have apartment and hotels. Finding a good place to live is a little bit challenging. You surely want to live in a place with WIFI, at least comfortable bed, and somewhat good room space to move around.
There's also many filipinos roaming in the streets, working in fast food chain, inside malls and around the streets and metro stations. You'll quickly notice their looks they called here "KABAYAN". It is as if you're just in the Philippines. Most receptionist around here are filipina also, I'm a little bit curious about it maybe it's because they the most pleasing personality ha ha! compared to other nationality here in Dubai.
There are also a lot of Pakistan, Indian and Asian nationality here. Most of them are employed. Mostly businesses out here are owned by local people dressed on condura.
To end up my story, For those who also wanted to get here I'll remind you one key thing. Have yourself ready and decided to be here, Because sometimes you might experience missing your family back home. Have some good relatives with you here that are ready to help you once you get here. They will be there in time you needed help for some financing.
Once you have your job right here it's up to you to establish your portfolio to find a more better position. Make sure you get your employment visa because getting your own visa will be expensive.
By the way there's an app called "2gis" help me search location and companies in Dubai. It's like a gps it works for me even offline. It shows you what bus to ride to get you where you want. It tells you also direction and how to get there.
One more be sure to know why you want to go here because the expenses to get here is not a joke.
My hopes is for the OFW working around the world not just here in Dubai for they are working in sweat for a better life for themselves and their family.
