QUOTE(walanneh @ Mar 29 2011, 10:38 AM) Hi all, I'll be starting work at Singapore next month. I'm currently looking for a place to stay and I've some enquiries. 1. Mine is direct thru owner via postings at bus stop1.) Did you find your place using an Agent? 2.) Is it the norm for a 1 year contract to be signed? 3.) How much was your deposit and is it true that rental in Singapore is 1 month forward? 4.) How much was your Agent fees? Thanks in advance. 2. No, you ca nego with the owner/agent on the term you prefer, but if thru agent you'll need to pay half month rental as agent fee 3. by default 1 month deposit and 1 month rental, so total 2 months 4. depend on the room/unit you going to rent |

I've worked in Singapore for almost 15 years now. My educational level is still SPM or 'O' level equivalent. I've found a permanent job on my 4th selection. It's an average but long hour job to commit but guess I survives the odds. I've been with the company for 8 year now. Starting salary with basic SGD850 and allowance about SGD450 back in 2004 when I was about 24 year old.
Now, I'm 35 year this year. I'm getting fix pay average SGD3.5K every month now. So, if you're offered SGD2.4K with much restriction better don't start with that kind of path. SGD2.5K are usually for best POLY student from Singapore. For a MASTER holder, I advice you to look for something above SGD3.5K. Otherwise, you have a long road ahead just like me. Wasted your youth working without be able to put more time on family and beloved friends. Average for a Metro Guy, a month expenses is about SGD1.5K a month. Living alone and stay very near to workplace. Average for a wise but odd looking guy that could've save a lot of cash, a month average expenses is about SGD1K or less but would have spend much on food and entertainment.[SIZE=7] This post has been edited by nyc3650: Mar 30 2011, 02:39 AM |

Starting salary with basic SGD850 and allowance about SGD450 back in 2004 when I was about 24 year old. ok what sgd 3.5k, you're in the lower middle income gap.... without any qualification i would say thats quite a good achievement alreadyNow, I'm 35 year this year.
