How E-GMP Works With an Employer

For our clients, it begins with understanding their business and developing recruitment solutions that meet their hiring needs, timelines and expectations for quality.

E-GMP recruiter and an employer agreeing a recruitment plan
  • Your business and the role come first

    Before sourcing a single candidate, E-GMP profiles your company, the role and the standard you expect. We understand recruitment beyond filling vacancies, from market and salary expectations to the technical requirements of the job, the skills the job requires, and the dynamics of employment.

  • We vet our candidates. We vet our employers, too.

    We look at the employment behind the vacancy: the legitimacy of the opportunity, clarity of terms, compensation and benefits, working conditions, worker welfare and safety, regulatory compliance and the employer's commitment to responsible employment practices. E-GMP briefs you on your obligations as the employer before the job order is filed. The employer gets the people it needs. The worker gets an opportunity worth taking. That is what we mean by Jobs That Matter.

  • Screened and tested before you see them

    Credentials, licences and experience are checked against the job order before an offer. Technical and skilled roles are trade-tested at testing centres accredited by TESDA, the Philippines' technical skills authority.

  • The right people, on the agreed timeline

    Typically 30–90 days from job order to deployment, depending on the role, the number of workers and the destination. Skilled and professional roles take longer: nurses, for example, can take up to 120 days.

Why E-GMP: One Accountable Partner From Job Order to Contract Completion

E-GMP carries your order from job order to contract completion. Every deployment runs through official Department of Migrant Workers channels: verified job order, locked contract terms, OEC documentation, monitored aftercare.

Recruitment is evolving. So are we.

  • Better tools. Better recruitment.

    Through our own E-RIS, the E-GMP Recruitment Information System, we integrate CRM, automation, AI and analytics into our recruitment workflow: reducing repetitive work, improving visibility and giving our recruiters better tools to make informed decisions.

  • More time with clients and candidates

    Our objective is simple: spend less time managing processes and more time understanding clients, engaging candidates, solving problems and delivering results.

  • Where your order stands

    E-RIS tracks each applicant from screening through selection to closing, so when you ask where your order stands, E-GMP can tell you.

  • Human expertise, amplified by technology

    We automate where technology makes sense while keeping judgment, relationships and accountability human-led. We are not changing the fundamentals of good recruitment. We are finding better ways to deliver them.

How Hiring Filipino Workers Works

Six stages from job order to deployment. Sourcing, screening, trade testing, mobilization, and post-deployment monitoring are formalised into a 19-step documented pipeline, tracked end to end on E-GMP's own E-RIS recruitment platform.

  1. 01Job order & manpower request

    You define the roles, headcount, qualifications and timeline, and provide your company registration and role specifications. E-GMP confirms the requirement and the route to deployment.

  2. 02Sourcing & screening

    E-GMP sources candidates and screens them through its own recruitment system, E-RIS, for verified skills, experience and documents.

  3. 03Qualification & trade testing

    Technical and skilled roles are trade-tested, so you choose from workers who have shown they can do the job, not from unverified CVs.

  4. 04Client interview & selection

    You interview and select from the shortlist, remotely or on site. Some clients let E-GMP select on their behalf.

  5. 05DMW & destination documentation

    Contracts, Department of Migrant Workers processing and destination-country visas are handled for you, on the terms your job order locked.

  6. 06Deployment & onboarding

    Workers arrive with their documents complete, and E-GMP stays involved after arrival through to the end of the contract.

Three Philippine rules shape every order. E-GMP (Licence No. DMW-232-LB-12212023-R, verifiable on the DMW's online registry) files your accreditation once and carries it for every order after. Your job order is verified, and its salary and role locked, before anyone is recruited. And the monitoring duties continue after workers arrive, until the contract ends. The documents and rules for hiring from the Philippines are set out in full in E-GMP's employer resources.

The Full 19-Step Deployment Pipeline

Frequently Asked Questions

Is E-GMP a licensed Philippine recruitment agency? +

Yes. E-GMP International Corporation is licensed by the Philippine Department of Migrant Workers (DMW Licence No. DMW-232-LB-12212023-R), verifiable on the DMW's public registry. Every overseas deployment is processed through official DMW channels, so employers receive Filipino workers who are legally documented and contract-compliant.

How does a foreign employer hire Filipino workers? +

Through a DMW-licensed Philippine recruitment agency. That is the normal legal route for overseas hiring. With E-GMP, you sign a recruitment agreement; E-GMP processes your employer accreditation, registers and verifies your job order with the Department of Migrant Workers, sources and screens candidates, and handles visas, contracts and exit documents through to deployment. How to hire Filipino workers, step by step.

How long does it take to deploy Filipino workers? +

Typically 30–90 days from job order to deployment, depending on role, volume and destination country. Skilled and professional roles take longer: nurses, for example, can take up to 120 days. When time is short, E-GMP can move quickly at the shortlist stage; it once brought 200 candidates to in-person interviews within one week for Maharah Human Resources.

How do I hire Filipino workers directly? +

Generally not. Philippine rules restrict direct hiring, with narrow exemptions under current Department of Migrant Workers rules, so a foreign employer normally hires through a DMW-licensed Philippine agency and is accredited itself before any job order is processed. In practice that means E-GMP holds the licence (DMW-232-LB-12212023-R), files your accreditation, registers the job order, sources and trade-tests the candidates, and carries the post-deployment obligations. You select the workers; E-GMP files the compliance.

Is E-GMP a DMW-accredited agency or a DMW-licensed one? +

The two words describe different things and both apply here. The agency is licensed: E-GMP holds DMW Licence No. DMW-232-LB-12212023-R. The employer is accredited: a foreign company is accredited to hire through a specific licensed agency, per employer rather than as blanket permission, and E-GMP files that accreditation on your behalf. So when employers search for a DMW-accredited agency, what they need is a licensed agency that can carry their own accreditation. E-GMP does both.

How do I verify a Philippine agency’s DMW licence before signing? +

Ask for the licence number and its validity date, then check it against the Department of Migrant Workers' own register rather than against the agency's website. Then confirm the agency is accredited for your specific job order, because accreditation is granted per employer rather than as blanket permission. E-GMP's licence number is DMW-232-LB-12212023-R, and you can check it on the Department's online register.

Which countries does E-GMP deploy Filipino workers to? +

E-GMP has deployed Filipino workers to employers in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Italy, Germany, Cyprus, Brunei and Australia, and holds DMW-approved job orders for employers in other countries, including Lithuania, Japan and Canada. More on each market: E-GMP's employer markets.

Do you work with foreign recruitment agencies? +

Yes. Recruitment and manpower companies also source Filipino workers through E-GMP, including Maharah Human Resources and JAWA HR, for whom E-GMP deployed 429 workers in one month. They work through the same verified job order and documents as direct employers. How E-GMP works with recruitment and manpower companies.
