Waiters and captains for hotel outlets and banqueting, bartenders for bars and beach clubs, baristas for coffee chains — the F&B service workforce Dubai runs on, tested for sequence of service and speed in Manila.
Every hotel outlet, beach club, banquet hall and coffee chain in the UAE needs the same profile: service staff who read a guest, move fast and speak English without effort. Filipino F&B staff come through TESDA Food and Beverage Services NC II, hotel schools and cruise-line contracts — the cruise lines being the best training ground for volume banqueting there is.
A service scenario with upsell and complaint for waiters, a speed and accuracy test for bartenders, a full coffee test for baristas, a banquet set-up task for banquet staff — at Prime Search's facilities in Makati, watched live by your F&B manager. Everything here is subject to applicable UAE MoHRE or free-zone, licensing, attestation and visa requirements.
On the UAE side, your company is the sponsor: a signed job offer, MoHRE work-permit approval (or the free-zone equivalent), an entry permit valid sixty days, then medical, Emirates ID biometrics, contract registration and the residence visa — typically two to four weeks once documents are complete. Roles are classified by MoHRE skill level; levels 1–2 require an attested degree, levels 3–4 a diploma. Our UAE company, licensed for HR consultancy in Dubai, advises on classification, attestation and Emiratisation standing and coordinates the sequence with your PRO — it does not place or supply workers, and the employment relationship is yours.
