Second class upper = CGPA 3.3 or 3.4 onwards?
Second class lower = CGPA 3.0 onwards till 3.2?
Do employer really care about the upper and lower? But seriously to me CGPA 3.2 is pretty good, but some of them still complain can't look for jobs because they are under lower class category.

It just a number. Any number >3000/1000 is good enough to get yourself an interview opportunity. Unless u got face/attitude problem.

my dad told me once when the resume screening process goes like this anything below second upper the resumes are discarded thats all. but that applies for big companies. SME would look at second lower

Once you gain enough experience they would not care about it. I got a first class (more than 10 years ago) in my first degree. But ,no one even look at my first degree anymore.

i tot 3.0 above is upper liao... 3.5 above is 1st? tats wat i know bout US uni cos 2.0 can graduate with honors ( so i suppose is 3rd class) then 2.5-3.0 2nd lower , 3.0-3.5 2nd upper, 3.5-4.0 1st
does it matter? big companies matter lor, sadly say... it's quite unfair... cos class & CGPA do not reflect ability... but it somehow reflect discipline ...

If u came out from lousy uni aka any local private uni, no matter what u get, even 4.00 also considered su.cks.
becos u gotta be a su.cks secondary student to end up in there.

if u aim for big size company like MNC, they do value ur CGPA highly, especially if u are fresh, because that's the only indicator that they can use to evaluate u... companies like Accenture, Panasonic, Shell, Exxon... they really demand for 3.80 CGPA, and ur paid will be damn good as well la of course...

i think the cgpa is important, but not that important.
even if you obtain 3rd class, you are still able to secure a job.
