Are the non-local, international/foreigners, allowed to get jobs? I heard that you have to have a work permit, some people say yes and some said no. So...yeah, I was just wondering..thanks!

Yes, they can work here as long as they have the legit working permit and visa to stay (for most foreign countries). Having student visa alone is not enough. You need to verify that with the Immigration Department though. However, If you're a permanent resident, you do not need the working permit or visa.

yup, that about sums it all up.

and i dont think msian student visa even allow them to work like in the UK. have to check on this though...

So like I have a student's visa, so I guess I can't get a job here then? My friends said it all depends on the interviewer...man, I really need a job.

can u quote what it states on ur student VISA? like for us in the uk, it states that if i want to work, i must be authorized. what does it say on urs?

If partime jobs (when u work in schools holiday with minimum 30 days), do not need visa. Better ask ur boss at work or student service at ur campus for responsibility.. please correct me, if I'm wrong..

thx

So if I did get a job, they will obviously pay in cash right? And it says on my visa that I'm here to just study. So I guess I should ask if they hire a non permit carrying student. Ehh...I need money and prostitution is not a high paying job, lol jk jk.

If anybody has experience with this, please do tell...thanks.
