This is my first time working in Singapore and I am quite discouraged to learn that my company's management is not what I have expected. I was tipped off (I got to know from the staff who is leaving and that is when after I have signed the in-principle permit) that this company isn't good but during the interview they impressed me so much with their potential and plans. Plus it is an international brand. did you just joined my company? hehehe, i say give it a try till the probation period is up, then you can decide better.. some ex-employees just wanna blackmouth the companyI need advise on how to resign. I am just afraid that I wont be able to get another working permit from a new company or MOM due to my early resignation. I am going to start work this saturday and was thinking of leaving within the 3 months probations. And let say if they terminate me will that affect me if I find job again? Will the new company knows? Or should I just tell them and will they believe me? Gosh ....what a luck these days~ Please help me. I need guidance and advice badly now.

QUOTE(totti 10 @ Aug 28 2011, 01:16 AM) try aeroline r u sure. now they have increased to RM115 for each way. Can try transmart. their bus quite frequent but drivers also drive very fast. But i think it really depends who are your driver. For Friday night I still prefer to take flight and come back from malaysia to singapore by coach. However, most of the time I take flight.about RM90 one way (depends on which country you get your ticket from) they have buses from 6am-8pm from both sides |

Pasir Ris houses are the cheapest as they are the furthest east side of Singapore. I use propertyguru.com.sg to search for my house.

Hello all,
My Experience of getting a job in sg.. Waiting 2 months 14days for my IPA. After that Goes for xray and waited 1 week for results due to holidays. Made payment for card collection.. system technical error. Waited 2weeks + for them to send me the EPSC letter manually. Now, Passport fully stamp. Can't change if not it will conflict with the EPSC letter. 1 day STVP entry left... From what I heard from MOM, I do not need to stamp my passport anymore due to the EPSC letter which I will present to the ICA officer when I enter and exit sg. I wonder is it true. Anyone has experience on this matter? I must be really unlucky when I apply for my pass >.<.. |

QUOTE(unknowmaster @ Aug 30 2011, 12:36 AM) Hello all, Bro, why do you need to make payment for card collection? I don't recall any charges apart from the medical check up which can be absorbed by the employer if you request a medical chit from them. My Experience of getting a job in sg..
