Then what field are u in right now?

I just finished degree in accounting and finance, thinking to apply jobs in sg but not sure what kind of jobs yet.. some seniors told me that if i got a job which is too specialized in banking line, it would be very hard to apply for some other jobs in the future, like what u said in your post.

aih, i need some advice please.

I felt regret to join banking!... My banking colleagues are very interested to their jobs that's why they decided to join banking since they graduated till they retired!... Their plan is to jump here and there to get better offer from others banks (General Banking will always be d normal salary, dont expect you can earns more!
*
u regret cause no interest or because low salary ?
maybe cause u can assess people account and see other people high salary and wonder how come, others can do better so much better sweat.gif

I will suggest renew the contract via agent for peace of mind. I learned my lesson.

My experience with first landlord was nightmare. I paid rental on time every month and occasionally internet connection being cutoff. Then bang, after 16 months staying there, the electricity cutoff. I called to SP and asked what happen (i have the name and IC of the landlord for verification) and the person told me that the bill havent been settled for 3 months. I already paid rental for subsequent month (it happen end of the month) and cant reach the landlord. End up reporting to police (who cant do anything as its civil case, unless I use lawyer). I moved out and landlord's dad said when his son settled his problem, he will paid back the money. Till now no news. 1 month rental and 1 month deposit burned.

All due to the fact I cant get agent involved as contract is only 1 year and its expired.

then what your current arrangement with your new landlord ?

when i rent my place, everything is in my name, HDB office have record
so i can get a carpark which is not easy, cause is a popular area, but hdb granted in view i got a unit there
internet and electricty is all in my name and all i paid direct, so no problem rolleyes.gif

Experienced credit analyst (15-20 yrs experience) can draw up to A$20k a month with specialisation esp in commodities or energy sector.
Banks here do not regard audit and advisory work experience (at least for my bank), if you apply for credit analyst position.
I'm a credit analyst btw.
