oh i see.... 4.0 in UUM not really a big deal anyway. Then if work in msia for example OSK or as any front desk trader then only go singapore, is that a good decision to make?

fresh grad should keep options open... ur looking for a job mode, shouldn't limit just sg... msia? u need to consider what is the right package to meet ur needs, plus i assume u are not attached so the decision to move or relocate can be done easily. Just hantam la.... all is fair game.

yes just hantam! you shouldnt be choosy. find the right job that suits you regardless of location. just get your resume ready and send! you have nothing to lose.

investment banking? you need to make more research whether is it better for you to start in Msia or SG. but be warned that the competition for entry level position investment bankers are very very intensive. even the brightest grads from NUS find it hard to set their foot in IB because some banks only consider ivy league grads. you'll be surprised how many ivy league grads apply to those banks in SG.

good luck!

Don't take it too hard... just that much u need for makan minum, plus some emergency buffer (sgd200) ...
it's risky.. coming for 2-3 months look for job coz no guarantee, if ur friend allow u to stay 2-3months in their places.
SG got strict in house rules for tenants ..sad.gif

ya lo heard that some tenants not allow outsider sad.gif and even a company call for interview it is also expensive and risky for me to travel from north to south and no guarantee for the job. Working in SG at least don't need to buy car that early. Fresh graduate pay very low in msia ler... left nothing if still want to pay car loan somemore sad.gif

There are way too many people ahead of you of the new iPad. Plus for pretty much everything else you have only the next 5 days to find buyers and 3 days to settle the transaction.

To me it's a bit too high of a risk (3 iPads cost $2k) to try and save $120. Fashion items are doable but the market is smaller unless you know people buying those items and are lining up for them, you'll have trouble getting buyers again within 3-8 days.

I do this quite a lot but I live in Malaysia and have the luxury of time to sell the stuff I bought while I travel to EU or US.

Guys,

Need some help here. So I had 2 interviews last week. Both of them will be giving me an answer by this week.

This morning company A called me saying they would like to take me
Company B will be giving answer by the next 2 days

I told company A I am ok with their offer but actually I am waiting for B's offer but they still have not give me an answer so it's unsure yet

Problem is, company A said they are going to apply Pass for me since I am ok with them

Will there be any problem if I reject company A when I got an offer from company B few days later?

Cos my concern is that..A apply pass for me first...will I face any problem?

I have not signed any offer letter yet.

Just verbally on phone said that I am ok working for company A...while I am waiting for company B
rclxub.gif

If there is any problem I have to tell company A to hold the pass application first

My concern is that...while the pass for company A is being processed...if I get the offer from company B and reject company A

will there be any problem? again...i Have not signed any offer letter yet...everything is verbal at this point

Sometimes company will not give u an offer letter till its approved by MOM then only u go ahead and signed it at the dotted line...some others..the offer letter will have this T&C subjected to the approval of MOM...if MOM rejects than this signed offer letter is of no use!!
