Add me to the list

If all goes well I'll be working there starting next month

Dang, you are easy to sway. That's like only a year or 2 of salary. And yours isn't even real actual money but HDB math based on selling your flat at resale flat price and buying back at first owner allotment price. Not very realistic to assume you'll get a new HDB flat at your age and the fact you just sold one for profit.

I have no problems with accepting current reality, but I have a real problem being told the reality is fair simply because it's reality? Was slavery fair because of the reality that the whites outnumbered the blacks 50 to 1?

I can't wait for the next GE to come. Might take a few days off to attend her sessions if she stands for election.

anyone working in sg market research company?

Those companies that some of you guys refer ( networking ), I have never seen those in job search website. Looking for networking job in Singapore at the moment.

Look in jobstreet.com.sg, jobsdb, monster.
Just from my experience... you have to dedicate a big chunk of your time in looking for job. Sometimes they may not have an openings for a few weeks but suddenly a whole bunch of those jobs appears. The only to do is to spend time looking for it.

argh..already sent my cv to 4 companies..nobody 1 reply yet
sighhhh

i'm looking for software engineer position

FYI, i had been sending more than 50 application.
Dont give up ba
All the best !

u already got a job in SG?? i think i need to send my cv to all post in jobstreet..lolz

When I was looking for job, my expectation was to send out 100 resumes and expect about 5 to get back. Also, do customize your resume/cover letter for each job. Always think of "How you can contribute to their company" in the header of your resume/cover letter.

Yeah, funny things is.... I send resume to recruitment agency and direct employment company based in Singapore. End up I received the Interview for Taiwan Company which the job position is based in Taiwan. ( Salary is not bad actually ). Funny eh, it seems like getting Taiwan job even faster than looking for Singapore job. But I do hope i can get the job in Singapore since I live in JB.

By the way, anyone knows what is the top 10 networking company in Singapore?

then go to Taiwan and try lar....who knows you will be better off in Taiwan? Or you dont know mandarin and chinese writings?

You can try Netstar, NCS, AT&T, CSC, NCR to name a few. Look out especially for NCS website or the job board as I know they always hire tons of Network Engineers. Funny and interesting things happens when you look for jobs.

nope.. i still trying
Really need to spend alot of time in looking for a job in sg.
Would say 1st job is the hardest.

dun give up!
i sent 20-50 application a day...
landed with a job after 2 months

Not to be harsh, but 4 send ins and you expect a reply?
I think you are overestimating yourself or underestimating the process of getting a job.
Even if you are applying for a job locally, 4 applications does not necessary warrant you an interview.
Patience is needed in job seeking.
That is why, ppl are recommended to start sending in applications on their final sem.
Anyway, just keep sending and good luck (yeah, you actually need some luck in landing an interview).

Dang, you are easy to sway.

Bro, I've been in Sg for 20 years lah. Kids also growing up. You think the kids or me will have more opportunities in Malaysia? I am working with more than $10Ksgd income here. Which freaking company in Malaysia will hire me? I am even paid better than Jibby. lol. BTW, there's a loop hole in HDB where if your employer is good enuf to lower the salary less than $10K, you will be eligible for HDB-BTO. 12K below is for EC and DBSS.

What is your thought like? How many years you have been working in Sg? Can you share your concerns? It is good for readers to judge for themselves to see which country is greener for them.

For those looking for job in Sg, please be patient coz you are also competing with the locals AND Indians, Indonesian Chinese, Pinoys and Chinese from China. So, it is very competitive. You have to move in very low and then move up from there. Can't afford to be picky. Hope this helps.

principal company - cisco, juniper, riverbed, bluecoat, f5, IBM, HP
system integrator - dimension data (datacraft), NCS, fujitsu, 3d networks, netstar, NEC
telco - BT, orange, verizon, AT&T
end user - many...

good for employer cause they pay less.
bad for u because u get less.
so good for who?

for the first time, i agree with you...but only the bolded part.
move in very low...this is as if u are trying to destroy your own market.
why would anyone want to destroy their own market?
