anyone here working in SG with monthly salary $8K and above?

my friend working as Finance Manager invested in a studio apartment in SG, so great achievement.

Where? I hope not geylang lol

Invest as in for own stay or rent it out? How much does the studio cost?

he rented it out and own stay in a rented HDB room.

Wah finance manager so high pay? 8k alot leh. Good for him. Only few can achieve more than 8k. Rumours have it our boss dedo, maki and gang all earn 5 figures.

Depends on age lo. If he is 26 years old only work for 2 years then is a great achievement. If he is 50 years old already at tail end of career then not really. Refer alaskanbunny post few pages back, $8k is like around 60th percentile only.

Anyways MacKiddo Fiona Chin chanti-sama yeahs4.1 all surely way more than that amount.

Hello Sirs,

I am 29 this year currently working as PM in one of ShenZhen factory producing Apple IPad. I came from manufacturing (test engineering) background. After comparing the environment and culture of China and SG, I feel like giving another try to search job in SG again. You really wouldn't imagine how messed up this Chinese place could be now..

It's obvious that manufacturing is dying in SG. Just want to try my luck

Anyone knows any factory has vacancy now? I am looking for role like test engineer, program manager/engineer.

Thanks!

just did my interviews with Singtel and recruitment consultant past 2 days. back in Kl now. still consider not bad cuz i managed to visit MBS and experienced morning work traffic in raffles...

still waiting for offer though...too bad i dont have the education papers to make it easier for myself =(

If you already know what you lack to be competitive, then do something about it lo. Lots of part time schools around mah.

yes boss...i've been trying but there's always issue. now trying to get a job in sg 1st while clearing some of my past papers...

Hi guys, I was given an offer from a e&e company with the position of assistant engineer, and the starting pay is only 2,200sgd.

Should I take the offer? Personally I think that the salary is a bit low, and do note that I'm a degree holder in mechanical engineering instead of e&e.

Depends. Are you fresh grad or are you 20-years experience?

Sorry forgot to mention, i'm fresh graduate looking for my first job

No experience memang kena chop one. But you kena chop more than me.

If you look further you should be able to find around 2.5~2.8 one.


Anyway... You can easily survive with 2.2k in SG with modest lifestyle (for a fresh grad, not modest for a 20 years experienced guy la). 400 (share) ~ 650 (single) for room rental, 100 for transport, 60 for phone, 500 for food, 100 for grocery. Still got around 800 savings.

800 x 2.65 = RM2120. That's almost your pay in MY d



Btw... Got allowance or not? Mobile allowance, transport allowance that kind of thing. Also make sure you have proper medical coverage and annual leave.

Don't later one year only 7 days, take some leaves here and there then finish d

what u aiming the cust service staff or work direct at singtel perm staff ....

Degree from where? You are being chopped. 2.2K SG is Diploma Pay

Degree from Malaysia, INTI International University to be exact. According to my senior, their starting pay is about 2.7k in Singapore.

Bro, in my opinion, try nego with them to get 2.5k .. With your degree, you should be getting 2.5-2.8k .. They low balling your pay .. Just nego with them and see what they respond ..
