QUOTE(someone_stupid @ Oct 11 2012, 05:44 PM) Guys just want to ask for opinion, should I focus on applying jobs at MNCs or firms? Cause I was wondering how are they likely to employ a Malaysian hmm And I sent about a total of 40 applications but haha no response Just apply every firms regardless MNCs or firms cause if you are good enough, they will hire you,and 40 applications is consider very less only

QUOTE(yhoong12 @ Oct 11 2012, 05:23 PM) But you just started this job right? how long does you take to get this current job? then maybe you can work out how long it needed again to find another job. does your room got minimum requirement of stay? if got you need to plan carefully when to give notice and when to move out, plus the white card issue is also one of it, i recall that after a number of days stays in singapore with white card, you are not allowed to enter singapore for one month, correct me if i give out wrong info  I have been working in current company for 3 month already. To be fair, it's me that cannot stand the current working environment ( dusty/risky/noisy/hot etc). This were my first job and i managed to secure another 2 job in singapore within 2 month. So, i am not sure if i can really gauge this. I have already fulfill the minimum requirement of stay of my room so i am sure i can get back my deposit. I thinks you are right with the white card things though.

QUOTE(athrun300 @ Oct 11 2012, 05:00 PM) it's actually me who initiate the resignation as i am not suitable for the job. So no need to be sorry. I am financially stable, so i guess i will stay in sg for the time being. But can i continue renting my room eventhough my ep cancelled? Of coz you can. As long you remains in Sg legally.

QUOTE(deodorant @ Oct 11 2012, 03:28 PM) Eh, debatable. Personally I would never stay in JB/work in SG, all that extra time taken travelling isn't worth it to me. Plus JB more dangerous than SG. Added on October 11, 2012, 3:31 pmHaha I passed my BTT on tuesday. But I haven't got my license extract yet, lazy to take leave to go in JB just to get extract. Probably will do the extract in KL in November when I fly back for friend's wedding. For me Not much difference staying in sg or johor in terms of travel time. Nit sure about safety in jb, never stay there before. My place is ok, many cops and just behave like a Malaysian you will be fine. I find that Singapore not suitable for my living. I gain much more mental health living in msia than in sg. The extract you can get relative or friend to help you do it. Just have to fill out a form.

Quite a problem to attend any interview if i use up the 60 days quota if you know what i meant  Hi athrun, may I know more about white card 60days stay? As I know we can enter and stay in Singapore maximum for 30days and before the the last day, we can just go to JB and enter again, right? Are you mean Singapore only allow us to enter and stay in Singapore with white card maximum for 60days (mean out and in again)? May I know later how long after the 60days we can enter Singapore again with white card? I thought there is no problem how many time we enter a country as long as don't over stay  2 years ago I was travel KL - Bangkok for 7 months with white card and between leaving and enter Bangkok again was less then 7 days each trip without any problem  . Maybe each country have their own laws Thanks. This post has been edited by tkhoo: Oct 12 2012, 08:29 AM

Are you mean Singapore only allow us to enter and stay in Singapore with white card maximum for 60days (mean out and in again)? May I know later how long after the 60days we can enter Singapore again with white card? There are two limitations. Firstly, you can only stay up to maximum of 30 days at a time. Secondly, in a 90 days period, you can only stay in Singapore for a total of 60 days and must remain outside of Singapore for the remaining 30 days.
