QUOTE(naleh33 @ Jul 25 2012, 10:14 AM) Where are you studying now? Based on your description, it should be countries with stronger currencies eg Oz, UK? IMHO, I think is a good idea for you to work overseas a few years to gain some experience, provided that you can get a job there which is quite a daunting task for foreign graduates. If you are happy with the life there, you can always opt to settle down there permanently. Hi naleh33 thanks for the opinion. I'm in the UK right now and you're quite right getting a job here is absolutely daunting (esp since they scrapped the PSW visa this year) but I am thinking if I really want to stay I can probably start with an internship. Yeah i've always thought that there is no intrinsic value in having worked overseas per se until my friend told me about the employers trying to match salaries thingy... so I just thought I'd ask around. However, if you decide to return to Msia after a few years, whether Msia employers will offer you a package which equals your overseas salary after conversion, I think it will be a 'good to have' thing. It is possible but difficult unless your skillset/experience is so valuable that no one in Msia has it. |

QUOTE(vin_ann @ Jul 25 2012, 11:01 AM) why not just start apply for internship in UK. be it whether u going to stay back or back to Msia, it's a valuable experience to be added in your CV. Yup i'm probably gonna do that... the only thing that's making me think twice is the insane cost of living in london. And sadly many internships are unpaid. |
