Hey guys, anyone here working in recruitment firm? Hows the job market there for Malaysian? And is it true that SIngapore bank normally won't take foreigners?
I have been looking for job in SG for a month, some of you may thought that it's still not long but im getting more concern as i have sent almost 50 applications and none of them call back for at least a phone interview? I'm wondering is it my problem or what..I have two years experiences in trade finance with a global bank in Malaysia, i wouldn't say that my profile and resume are very impressive but i believe should be no problem for at least maybe secure an interview? This is a huge knock on my confidence
I am now still in Malaysia, due to financial problem it's not wise for me to simply go down and stay without interview. With Malaysia address and numbers in resume, could these affect the employer when they are short-listing?
Thanks in advance guys

Guys, anyone staying in Tampines area?

After months of depositing resume finally manage to secure an interview and got my offer

Little advice for fellow Malaysian who intending to work here, get yourself a Singapore address and number and put them in your resume
It does make a difference for me, but it's only applicable when you are unemployed

Cheers

Guys, just to confirm.
Can we withdraw our initial deposit straightaway after the account is opened with bank?

I never knew foreigners like us who wish to open a saving account required so much deposit

Sadly, I will be joining UOB, staff account also kena sgd 500

For my case, it took only 2 minutes after i hit the apply button, and 3 working days to get my offer, very efficient
It depends on the employer but i guess they are still efficient than Malaysian employers

Trade Finance, import operation, in banking. I guess they need people urgently

yea. Documentary credit stuff.

The scope is kinda wide, from LC opening, checking to payment. This is the reason i took this job.
I only have two years experience previously from bills payment function.
The certification is it CDCS you mean? I haven't got that
You from the related field?

No. My friend who earn much lesser than that get epass too.
It pretty much depends on your company (maybe the quota etc, not so sure)

all sifus here

I will be going MOM for fingerprinting this weekend.
However now my IPA and medical reports are all stated my old passport number (yes i renewed after the application)
I wonder there will be any issues..I don't want to go through the process all over again

hello guys

can intro any good restaurants? it's my partner birthday next saturday and i'm looking for some fine dining to celebrate with her, any cuisine, my budget is around S$300 for 2 persons
