It might take her some time to find a job, especially with no degree or specific skill set. It would be a good idea to get in touch with the Filipino community once she lands. Once she gets her bearings and meets a few people, it should be easy to find some type of work.
This is really great to read and taking some of my stress away. Thanks for the reply. 🙂

I meet many on my travels here around town.

There’s a Filipina working in Sun Dance as a waitress at the moment.

My friend brought his filipina gf here and she had zero working experience except for the bars in the PI, she was working within about 3 weeks in a small hotel undertaking all types of different roles.

Don’t fret.
Great, this is sounding promising now. One of the reasons why we are leaving Thailand (among many) is there aren't many opportunities here for her. I am already getting more excited for this move now.
Thanks so much for the reply 🙂

There is one working in Aussie XL also.

It won't be difficult for her to find a job, you should go to the Filipino Bar "Memates" and chat with them once you are here.
Nice! Very helpful... Thanks 🙂

Pallet beer and wine serves Lechon on the 1st of each month. Owned and operated by Philippinos.

You are bound to make some connections in there and the lechon is good too.

Good luck
