HI all, i have just graduated college from a university in the US and i am planning to apply for a job in Singapore. However, friends who graduated overseas told me that they all had a hard time getting a job there and eventually went back to Malaysia. Can someone enlighten me on this? How difficult is it to get a job in Singapore for a fresh graduate? I heard that the Sngaporean government has now a policy on limiting the intake of foreigners into the job market. How true is that? Thank you in advance!

I haven't see the link shared above. But from what I said it's kinda hard to get jobs in July and August.. The reason is the SG students are graduating in this period and they tend to hire SG ppl over MY ppl lor of coz..
However, no harm trying right? Just apply and see whether you will be invited to interview.. Who knows you might be the right guy that they are finding rolleyes.gif

Edit : Ok I have just viewed the PDF file shared above. That applies on Work Permit workers, I think companies will still hire degree students as degree students are holding E Pass.. so IMO this is not the reason why they intake lesser fresh graduates gua..

since u are fresh grad, they won't be too harsh on you. It's very subjective actually.. Some companies will oni invite those with above 3.0 CGPA for interview.
Some they don't really bother about your CGPA, they treat all fresh graduates the same way.
They won't hire people with 4 pointer but incompetent when doing hands on.. If you are planning to work in SG, well, just apply all the companies that you are interested and wait for them to call you up.
In order to being called up, learn how to make simple and good resume. That's the first medium between you and your potential employer.

In university, don't just too focus in the exam for good grade or result. Example, most of my frens graduated with first class, but I just a ordinary second class. I got awards for several exhibitions with gold award and a patent that still pending. Not what lecturer ask u do what then you follow and do. I proposed my project and convince my lecturer. I am not the best but I will do my best. If not, u will be the first class graduate or ordinary graduate. Try to excel yourself in uni life and interviewer will be able to convince by u. Good luck and work hard during uni lifep

For the graduate to be out there, your degree classification is the first thing and maybe the only thing people look at to decide to delete your application or invite you for an interview. If you are aiming for mnc where hundreds of applications coming in, then your degree and gpa are the criteria for first round cut off. These are the things to show how committed you are in what you are doing. Achievements that people may not know is meaningless, no people will spend time googling what competitions are those. Saying gpa is useless is like the fox and sour grape. Listen to your parents and lecturers, study hard for a better opportunity.

For those fresh graduates, no need cry over spilt milk, work harder from now on.

That sentence might means the following :

Schools 1st issued/give result slip as the certificate has to be processed ,thus they would accept the slip given tat u just received it within a period of 6 months .Since u can't possibly get the cert when the Malaysia's MOM was preparing it.

U should try and get ur cert at MOM near Larkin (given tat u sat for the exam in J.B) ,I did tat and got my cert within 20mins (I got the slip for 3 years and only went to take the cert when SG company requested it).


Question: Do anyone know what is their "skilled/unskilled" refer to ?I dont think it's referring to my cert,diploma etc....

I haven't tried with 2gb, but I always use the 7 day 1gb and keep purchasing the 7 day 10mb until I finish all my data. Rinse and repeat.

It's quite clear actually. You need to present your original SPM cert latest by 1 year after the WP is issued. If you don't, then your WP gets cancelled and you might be blacklisted.
