Agencies, by law, should do it by the book: kung hired na ka, you will have to go through a medical exam (at your expense) and pass it. They will need this to process you employment contract and visa. This will take a while so I suggest lihokon na sad nimo ang pagpa authenticate sa imong mga school certificates (they will need this to process your employment/ residence visa later on). Dugay ni nga process (ched-dfa-uae embassy in manila) so if you can find an agency to expedite it for you, maypa mobayad na lang ka pa process. Kuti gyud kung direct hiring sa Philippines but at least you know you are safe. Dapat tagaan ka sa original employment visa (pangitaan ka ani sa Philippine immigration og UAE immigration desks sa airport sa Pinas og dayon abot sa UAE) and you will have to go through a seminar called PDOS, which is basically an introduction to working abroad. PS please make sure the agency is listed with POEA as an accredited recruitment agency. You should not pay any processing fee because the employer is supposed to pay them (though some agencies flout the rules and take 10 percent of your total monthly payment). not sure if the laws have changed regarding this issue.
