For job seekers
Overseas work, explained honestly.
You should know the wage, the contract, the employer and the cost before you commit. Our process is designed so nothing about your deployment is a surprise — and nothing is charged to you for finding the job.

You never pay us for a job

- No placement, registration or "processing" fee — at any stage
- Statutory costs paid by you directly to the provider at published rates
- Wage, hours, deductions and contract length confirmed in writing before you accept
- Documents requested only after you are shortlisted for a specific mandate

Candidate questions
Answers before you apply
Fees, documents, timelines and what happens after selection — answered without the sales pitch.
Do I have to pay a fee to get a job through Galaxy Overseas?
No. We do not charge candidates a placement fee. Legitimate costs — a medical examination, passport renewal, police clearance — are paid directly to the service provider at published government or panel rates, and are explained to you in writing before you spend anything.
Which countries do you recruit for?
Our largest markets are the Gulf countries — Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain — with selected requirements in Southeast Asia and Europe. Live openings are published on our Search Jobs page.
What documents do I need to apply?
A passport with at least 18 months of validity, an updated CV, passport-size photographs, qualification and experience certificates, and a police clearance certificate. Trade roles may also require certification or a licence.
How long does the whole process take?
From shortlisting to visa stamping usually takes six to twelve weeks, depending on the client, the destination and how quickly medicals and attestations are completed. You receive a stage-wise timeline once your documents are in.
Is there a trade test or interview?
Usually yes. Most skilled and technical roles include a practical trade test at our centre and an interview with the employer, either in person at our office or over video.
