ACILITIES

To support the company’s constant growth, new facilities are continuously being developed and implemented, enabling us to provide effective service to both clients and applicants.

Corporate Head Office

The three-storey office building is located at the heart of Makati City and houses the various administrative and support facilities. The Training and Trade Test Center, located just a few blocks from the office, is under construction. Currently, training is being conducted on the roof deck. Table 4 shows photos of the facilities.

The Head Office has 6 spacious client interview rooms with a 150-person sitting capacity applicant waiting area. The Briefing Room allows interviewers to conduct applicant exams, orientations and seminars.

The ground floor allows 8 to 10 in-house Technical Evaluators to conduct interviews comfortably with an ample waiting room for applicants.

Accommodations for Applicants

For many applicants coming from the provinces outside Manila, lodging is one of their primary concerns. To help them with this problem, East West is providing free accommodations to trainees, applicants waiting their final interview and selected applicants who are being processed for deployment.

There are two lodging units located near the head office in Makati with a combined capacity of 450 persons.

Training and Trade Test Center

The Training Center is a four-storey building currently under construction in Makati City. It has a floor area of 1,287 sq.m. and living quarters for 200 persons.   Catering to mechanical and E & I categories, apart from other skilled categories, the facility can train a batch of 120 welders in three shifts.

The company also employs the services of affiliates like Tesda, Miescor, Executive and PhilAsia for trade testing. With the new Trade Testing Center, the company will be able to conduct trade testing in-house under the supervision of highly competent personnel, thereby eliminating the need to send applicants to affiliated trade testing centers.

BRANCH OFFICES 

East West maintains three strategically-located branch offices in the Philippines to give applicants convenient access to our services: Batangas City, Cebu City and Cagayan de Oro City. 

Most applicants coming from remote provinces cannot afford to come to Manila to apply for work or attend client final interviews. They can report to the branch office nearest them. Clients also have the option of going to the branches to conduct interviews.

Branches are connected to the head office in a wide-area network enabling them to access and update the central database on real-time. Up-to-date applicant information from branches is instantaneously made available to the entire company.
