biggrin.gif Macam a little misleading leh...

According to the link it should be...

Degree holders who can't find job = No class tongue.gif
Anyway... I think depends on industry la... For me in construction, as of my experience, a fresh grad degree holder is just like a medium between lower class (construction workers, site supervisor, site coordinator etc) and the higher class (the boss and client)

Like the fillings of a sandwich  cool2.gif  cool2.gif  cry.gif

Lol.. so it sounds like having a my degree is only useful for bangle/low class jobs in sg?

For executives position they do not prefer degree? i see the qualifications are mostly degrees and above..
or does it means chances are very low for those who have a my degree gets an exec job in sg...

*Note : i mean in finance/accounting industry

I do know that they prefer acc graduates with professional titles like CPA/ACCA, but just wondering how about a degree graduate who is applying for exec job in medium tier firms/MNCS? no chances?

Any advices/opinions are appreciated rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

Been working here for a year+.. Means a year I did not touch my car and go back frequently.. Honestly $$ drives me, some of my peers contemplating to return back get married, family all. But I dont care, not family orientated. Perhaps the only thing i miss is driving. Been taking bus to work all while haha.. How do you guys cope with this? Stay emotionally mentally strong, at least for 5-10 years

stay near office + take taxi as needed > driving

you still can go back MYS once every month and speed on MYS highway <3

btw, got my PR approval biggrin.gif

well for me... taxi is even better... no need to find parking, maintenance, depreciation, toll, petrol etc etc

I can can taxi easily with apps, at least in the place I am staying around

I can just relax at the back when i need to...

this is just because I am single:)

of course if you have kids and etc, having a car could be a better options..

Hi hi. Just wanted to ask everyone who's moved there, I already have my IPA and will be going to Singapore this weekend. I'll probably get my EP end of next week, read somewhere that it takes around 4 days after the company HR request for the EP to be issued. When arriving in Singapore what do you put as your length of stay on the white immigration card?

Thanks! smile.gif

application approved and you are required to present physically for card application?

you should have a letter stating you are allowed to work in Singapore already, use the letter & don't need to fill up white card. I once fill up the white card and the immigration officer kinda question me why still fill up white card. I think they have it in their system.

Its ok, only rich people drive for leisure in Singapore. Poor souls like us, thanks to high rental and properties prices around MRT stations, fully loaded bus, the frequent breakdown of the MRT, need cars to travel from far away house to work on time because 1 minute late our boss will sack us, complain to ICA, revoke PR and send back to Malaysia within 24 hours time frame.

Hi bearbear, yes application approved and next week will be there to collect the card.

Hmmm ok, well in any case like you said if its in the system then the officer will just tell me when I'm at the counter.

Thanks for the info!
