Hi, is any one from IT field / programmer work in SG now? How is the software / IT industry there?

I'm a degree freshgrad, and thinking to try some career opportunity at SG. Currently working in a bank's IT department @ KL for less then 3 months period.

How is the salary range for a Msian at there?

that is quite a lot bro, 8k/month, handsomely paid! but as what i know from my friends, freshgrad is around 1.8~2k only.

hope to try my luck to get some "lobang" here

Got an offer from construction / property company, position as IT Executive, pay range around S$2K.

With this salary range, can i survive in SG and save more than i earn in Msia now? Currently im working in a MNC bank IT role, income below RM3k.

Appreciate for any advices.

Hi there!

Nope, I'm just a freshgrad with 6 months working exp in bank

so currently no commitments yet, except insurance and PTPTN.

Nope, im paying rental, food all by myself in KL, and giving some allowance to parents. Dont have car at the moment as not really need it here.

Considering the currency exchange rate, hopefully im able to save much better compare to Msia so I can afford for my first house..

If I dabao daily in SG, lets say 3 meals per day, can it goes below S$400? And how bout the monthly MRT pass?

Yeah, no need highclass food, as long as can survive and able to chew with ok taste

Ok got my answers, thanks guy!

Any suggestion for accommodation? My future office is in Bukit Batok area

I will go collect offer letter next 2 weeks, will see how at there later.

But why say so, to avoid mrt? From google map, it tells that my office is around 1km to MRT. Is fine for me to walk 1 or 2km daily.

Lets say company A applied S-pass for me, but I yet sign any offer letter, and body checking up. (I agree to accept the job offer by them, verbally / literary)

Then I interviewed with company B, company B offered higher paid / benefits.

If I reject A now, and take B offer.

Will this bring big impacts to me (reputation, hard to find next job, etc) ?...

yeah, no contract sign yet, then i know what to do now

IT position, programmer. seems like IT high demand here

walaueh, but since I'm get approved in company A, I think should be okay gua

regarding this, can anyone confirm for me? i scare after i reject company A, when come to S-Pass application from company B, i will get in trouble, since my friend told me that the application is base on some sort of scoring system..

* I'm yet to accept company B's job offer

Hi guys,

just to ask,
when attending the appointment with MOM for SPass application, do i need to bring over my original certificates like SPM, diploma, degree cert?

if yes then jialat liao..

According to the IPA letter from MOM, yes.

My friend told me the same thing also, but he forgot alrdy about the documents required to present during application.

Tried to search online, but found nothing. I leaved my ori cert at KL
