Anyone works in a Cambodian casino? How is the casino job over there?
Well, at first I planned to be a teacher in Cambodia after nearly 20 years of teaching foreign languages abroad but then I received some opinions that it''s not a very good choice.
So, because I can deal well with Chinese, Russian, English (and to communicate good enough in other 5-6 languages) I wondered isn't it better for me to start working in a casino. I suppose they need polyglots like me who are able to explain important things like "how to play this", "where is the toilet", "how much is the free whiskey" and so on (I spent enough time in casinos in East Europe and Macao, so I know what is the level of the communication and I feel pretty sure I can do it).
So, somebody knows how is the job there? Payment, stress, problems of any kind, opportunities?
If not, at least, those of you who ever visited these places, tell me, please, how do you think of the Cambodian casinos? Your impressions?
Thanks in advance!

You ain’t from round here are you?
There are plenty of cheap, locals who have sufficient Chinese/English to tell patrons where to go pee. Why would they want to employ an expensive foreigners when a local can do the same job for 20% of the cost?

5%-10% I'd argue.

A large casino like Naga already has thousands of employee's, many of which speak multiple languages relevant to this region, Thai, Malay, Viet, Mandarin etc. . They have no need of said "polygot". What they always have need of is Casino Host's. A casino host that has an extensive list of clients or "whales" who will follow said host to whichever casino property employ's him and then plunk down sizeable wagers. Actually not a bad job as they accompany clients to VIP events, golf courses and dinner. They may also receive a nice chunk of change depending on how much each whale loses per visit. .

The chances of a foreigner coming to Cambodia and finding a decent job that pays a decent salary - way above teachers’ subsistence rates - is negligible. Most foreigners in good jobs were sent there by their employer; a tiny handful build networks which help them get the tiny number of decent jobs; every other foreigner who is doing ok is either retired or has created a business.
Don’t want to be discouraging but Cambodia as a place to build or sustain your career is not a good choice.
May I suggest you lower your sights on the job application. I need a painter who can climb a 20 foot ladder and I can pay $10 per day.
I know a few foreigners ("Westerners") who are/have been employed in the casino industry in Cambodia, they all had years of experience working in Casinos in other countries, and are/were making Bank in Cambodia...If you have no experience, then not a chance, maybe a 3rd country nationals (ie.Filipino) wage if you're lucky, with shit working conditions...if you could even secure a casino job, which is highly unlikely.
I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.

Working in a casino in a border town here sounds like hell on earth to me but what would I know?

I’d hope that anyone considering working in a particular sector in another country would do a little due diligence, rather than just jumping on board after reading a forum comment.
But in this world now we seem to have to cater for the absolutely lowest common denominator. Do we really have to assume that everyone is as thick as shit?

Nothing to do with naivety. Not everybody devours every news article, even when it relates to a country they may move to in futureAnthony's Wiener wrote: ↑Mon May 23, 2022 11:28 amIt has been reported here, TOF, Cambodian, Thai , Japanese, Chinese, Malaysian tv and newspaper. A number of casino trade newspaper have reported on it.violet wrote: ↑Mon May 23, 2022 10:04 amWhy would they be aware?Anthony's Wiener wrote: ↑Sun May 22, 2022 8:21 pmA bit if a leap that the poster is unaware of what has been happening. Perhaps we should warn the poster that hanging out with Pieman is also a threat to his wellbeing, taking children home to play video games is unadvisable, that casinos are magnets to low life Chinese and Pov at the #MeToo bar doesn't really love long time and her drinks are overpriced and watered down.violet wrote: ↑Sun May 22, 2022 8:01 amPlease ignore this post. It is to be avoided at all costs and is not even funny to suggest it to a person who may be completely unaware of what has been happening to people taking up jobs like this then finding themselves in a hell they can barely free themselves fromAnthony's Wiener wrote: ↑Sun May 22, 2022 7:29 amHave you looked into telemarketing? A number of investment firms have first class offices in the KOW and are actively seeking foriegners to join their ranks. My understanding is meals and lodging is provided in gated communities.
Aljazeera did a worldwide story on it.
Why would you think the poster to be so naive?

Says it’s for Cambodians with language skills. That’s really good - must include ugly city boredom money - Bavet is on a par with Poipetlogos wrote: ↑Mon May 23, 2022 10:09 pmIn the meantime, this ad came up on a FB forum
