Anyone who entered Singapore as a graduate, hope you can help me out with a question (not sure who to ask, I have Sgrean and Msian friends but not Msians who graduated and now work in SG friends)

If you plan to get an EP (I am still in school now) do you need to have graduated already (the big piece of paper at the ceremony, about one month after my exams) or can you get it using a online printed and certified copy of your transcript (showing your name and grades).

Thank you!

Edit: I am not in SG but I guess I could call them from here when the time is right - if they entertain questions like this on the phone

I got sg offer using my certified transcript and a letter frm uni saying i'm graduated while waiting for ceremony to get tat fat little big piece of paper.

Yup rclxms.gif u can try doing the same

The issue now is the ratio of Singaporeans/PR vs foreigners. The ratio also varies depends on the industry. In addition, there is also another layer of ratio for foreigners from different countries. Malaysians have a higher ratio, being a traditional source of talent.
If you are earning above a certain amount, eg EP passes will need a minimum of SGD3300PM and S-Pass will have to be at least SGD2200pm and with the right experiences and/or qualification from a recognized university, you should not have problems securing this pass. They used to consider only the monthly salary but with the large influx of foreigners with questionable degrees, they have tighten things up and will reject those from un-recognized university even if the salary is high.
If you have any question, I will be happy to help out. PM me

a lot if you have the qualifications and niche experience minimum 5 years. referring to oil & gas and marine.
before i back to KL last month, i was offered with around 66% up from 1 of my ex-company's clients, too bad i have signed the KL offer. if not, i may consider this Sg offer. with more stringent requirements on EP and my ex-company quota and also change of Top Management direction, i decided to back KL. the Top Management only counter-offered 20% up, if 50% i will consider to stay in Sg with EP as lot of fire fighting every day. can consider REP also if back to M'sia.
currently have back to KL to work. still got some some calls and e-mails from Sg headhunters.

yes. 'membership fee' is a more friendly term compares to 'protection money' .

Take a backpacking trip to the less develop country, survive only with the stuff on that bag, see how fortunate you are, mix with locals see how happy they are with the bare minimum. It will make you a different person and save you tonnes of money later.
