after i grad, i directly come singapore to work, i dun wanna waste my time working in malaysia because not all the malaysia company working experience are recognize.

u can't work without permit. wat i mean is that, i stay in singapore for 2 months using visitor pass and search for job.

i know they can work illegally, but still, i won't be advising them to work without permit because there are many cases where the employer abusing the worker beacuse he don't have a permit.

yeah, maybe u are right. good that i can learn something from you bout unscrupulous singapore employer.

lol, i work in tuas, but at tuas west, not sure bout the fabrication area though, maybe if i got time, i will travel around there and have a look. thanks bro.

i work as a production technologist in 3M, more like manage people + paper work.

the visitor pass = the white card that u used to enter singapore.

i think 3M is hiring E&E now or mechanical, i am not too sure. I saw the internal job posting searching for electrical engineer or something.

if i am correct, if u work under certain number of months (i think is below 8 months, correct me if i am wrong), u will need to pay tax. For the HDB rent, it depend on whether u found the houses through agent, or through house owner.

If u are through agent, then u need to pay for the agent fee which is 1/2 of the rental. For the mattress, normally the house owner will provide u with it. Either a new mattress or old one (normally old one).

There are good and bad on having an agent to rent a room.

With agent,
You tend to pay 1/2 of ur monthly rental to them, but they can guarantee you that the house owner can't raise the rental price.

Without agent,
You tend to save the 1/2 of ur rental but u never know that the house owner can raise the room prices anytime. I had met such situation before where house owner put cheaper price to get a tenant then after 2 months staying, they want to raise the room prices.

the recruitment wont charge u anything but the company. Then again, "some" company tends to charge u and their are mostly private company

if i am correct, they will charge for 3 months?

Thanks for correct my mistake.

yes, it is possible, but u have to search through at the bus stop stand there for notice.

i recommend u happy 128

the reason why i suggest happy 128 is that when u reload, u got 100SGD local call and 28SGD for international call. And with 100 dollar of local call, i can guarantee you that u can never finish those amount by just receiving call. Unless u receive call for 24/7.

i work at 3M, being accepted in stats chippac also but at the end reject and accept 3M instead due to stats chippac dun have any fix working hour and u are expected to OT from monday to friday. I forget bout saturday whether u need to work also or not. The salary offer is attractive.

Having the thoughts of working part time in Singapore is actually good, but the chances of getting hired just to work part time can be equal to 0, because the employer need to pay and apply the work permit for u.

Also, if u work less than 183 days, you are taxable as a non-resident at 15% flat.

Relax bro, it is normal that you don't receive much replies at this month because it is already year end and people tend to wait for bonus before resign. Trust me that next early year will have more jobs opening. In the mean time, try improve your resume so that it look nicer.

And for the result yet to released, it is ok but once you obtained your result, you need to submit to your HR.

You can actually apply now, no harm done. But i think you will only have response on January or so.

I am an engineer and i don't work on audit firm, but my friend might know some company though. Have to ask my friend.

For the application, it is best that you send through email to the HR. Normal mail is too slow.

Refer this to help on your employment and which company you are interested. Here

No one have the exact time when they will hired. Diff company have their own diff time of giving out the bonuses. My guess is end of Jan onward or so.
