QUOTE(sapapa @ Dec 24 2011, 12:48 AM) Guys, I have been given a role of IT Support in desktop/lan. I am fresh graduate with no experience. Is $1500 sounds reasonable? up to you, with $1.5k, its good enough for you to survive without savings. But if u join in at that pay, the chances of you getting a better paid job is very very high. so its up to you how u want to do it. you can wait for another offer or u can come down with that 1.5k job 1st, then get ur self settle down in SG and start looking for better offer after 6 months working in that company. chances to get hired when u are in SG is higher than u are located overseas since employer wouldn't have to worry that you can't blend into the SG society. |

QUOTE(Gengarbear @ Dec 26 2011, 10:39 PM) hey guys, I am only STPM, got me EP last year. pay haven reach $2.8k. u judge your self.Malaysian here with diploma qualification in Physiotherapy and 2 years working experience and a special certificate for skill that a singaporean company requires me to work for them. so the problem is which employement visa should I best apply for ? the employer told me that might gotta go for S-pass and somehow S-pass is better than EP but I check online EP has a higher salary range and no quota. my salary will be around3k-3.5k SGD so taiko here can give me some advice? if EP needs degree but SP don't need it. 1.so how long will it usually takes for the application process to go through until employement date? 2. will be be hard to get my employement visa to be approved based on my qualification? 3. is 3k-3.5k salary worth for me to quit a 5k job in malaysia? 4. is 3.5k consider high? I'm quitting medical health care field to join this swiss company to be their clinical application specialist for their advanced medical equipment product. so medical healthcare or medical product line has better career prospect in SG?

QUOTE(crazy25kid @ Dec 30 2011, 12:00 PM) My own opinion, SGD50. 50 and 100 notes is ok to them... but 1k seems like a bit too big... normally i will change with $50 and $100 notes. please don't give them $10 notes, they will give u the suckiest rate everThey can use it to "sell" it back to other customers easily. SGD1k...very hard to sell as someone needs to come with RM2.4k++ and I doubt that guy will be happy with a SGD1k note either. Imagine go food court or take cab pay with SGD1k, if u change with $10 notes. |

QUOTE(eataroundthebush @ Jan 16 2012, 08:16 PM) I think my resume is definitely above average, have had multiple people from HR industry help me revise it plus I worked on some major client engagements (especially in China), so experience highlighted throughout the resume should also definitely be OK. if you plan to do so. might as well u accept the chinaman style company's offer and set ur foot here 1st.I did hear that if SG companies see a Malaysian address they usually just automatically send it to the delete pile? Is it worth camping it out in Singapore for a while (Say maybe a month) so that my address is local? then start looking for jobs.. coming to SG without getting a job is a very very bad idea. not only that, you cannot legally rent a room here because you are not even a resident because you come into SG as a tourist. |
