work permit

If they applied EP for you and it gets rejected, they can apply work permit for you instead. Shouldn't be a big problem, but do take note that some banks might not be keen to re-apply the work permit if the reject reason is due to your own issue (e.g. lack of a diploma, assuming you haven't completed diploma as you said so).

It might be best to just inform the hiring bank of your concerns and let their HR get back to you instead. At least if it fails, they are already pre-empt for it.

Hi, I'm new here. I need some advise.

Currently i have accepted a job in Singapore. And I have been work for 3 days. I think I have chosen the work position. I start feel I don't really like and interested in this job actually. I have went go the working permit place to submit all my stuff on Tuesday and I will be getting my S pass this Saturday.

What do if I quit this job within 1 month, will my future working in Singapore be affected? Will be hard for me to apply working pass?

Guys - I read somewhere in this forum (from 2009) that Malaysians with employment pass and staying in Singapore can drive a Malaysian registered car if :

- Have Employment pass
- Only for the first 12 months of holding employment pass
- Have a valid malaysian license

Can anyone advise if this is still true and send me the link to some official website? Can't seem to find it

Thanks!

Don't mix up the 2 things.

1. The regulation of drivers ie. drivers' licence is regulated by Traffic Police. It determines WHO can drive (verb). Not WHAT you drive. It's all about which licence you need depending on your residency status and your length of stay in Singapore.

2. WHAT you drive ie. the regulation of vehicles is by LTA (Land Transport Authority). It determines WHAT you can drive according to your status, assuming you are already a WHO under #1 by having a qualified driving licence for your particular status.

There is absolutely no causal relationship where the such & such driving licence you have allows you to drive such & such registered car.

It's your status (residency and residence) which determines which driving licence you need to be able to drive.

And then it's again your status (residency and residence) which determines which car you need to drive... assuming you have the appropriate driving licence from above.

My mom worked with a company for barely a month under work permit and she moved to another company for better pay/work hours. Don't see any harm/issues for her.

I am holding EP and changed two jobs in the recent three months time, never gotten any issue also. I think as long the hiring company does not see any problem in hiring you, you shouldn't have much hassles though I do think you might want to give a bit more time with the current job before running - unless the new job is paying damn well or holds great exposure that you want to build on.

Get Application No. from ur HR , i can check with it

Not mine, is my friend one.
But i check with travel document it stated the record not found, but if HR personnel like u check,can find? she got email HR last few days regarding the status of application but they didnt reply, that why i ask how long it takes to get and it worried her alot...haha, if you check you need the application number only? use other details can ?

After you retrieve details by IC/Name is wrong , there got 3 method to let u search again, so i use application no. that get from hr

nope

hi that rule only apply to Singapore registered car not Malaysian registered car.

went to Keppel OM technology yesterday
interview for research engineer (drilling deep seawater group) but later on got channelled to FPSO process/environmental since what I am doing currently is closely related to that area. anybody went to interview with KeppelOM before? share how many interviews you went thru?
I am expecting at least 2-3 interviews

wah was you expecting to get a high pay job since last year, tried Keppel Shipyard?

Have to be prepared to work from Monday to Sunday. I just declined an interview for the position of electrical superintendent.
