Guys, want to ask is it hard to find jobs in sg nowadays? I have diploma in mech eng. I saw few technician job that might suits me. Is it open to foreigners or priority on Singaporeans only? How much does it cost if say I want to travel JB-SG via public transport everyday? Would appreciate the input. thanks.

guys, is it to much asking 2k sgd for a diploma holder? Going to sg this February for interview.

yeah. I'm a fresh grad diploma in mech engineering. But I do have 3 months experience in call centre before this. Applied a customer svc and some technician job. Yesterday a company call me to go for interview as Singtel CSO and salary range is 1.6k~2.4k. They asked me my expected salary and I said 2k, but the interviewer like kinda shocked. As if im asking mountains with just diploma and no experience. So that's why I'm asking.
Anyway, is it a crazy idea to travel JB-CBD area daily? 2hr one way like that by public transport?

so you are working in singtel too now? how is it like? IINM , in the job description also they did mention something about 150 allowance.

i see. so you are a diploma holder too? Actually I'm kinda scared asking anything more than 1.8k. But then alot of people are saying fresh diploma holder should get 2k and above. Confused now. lol

Hi, i just started working in singapore for almost a month now. But until now, my employer still do not arrange the work permit for me. But I done a medical check up weeks ago. They just give me a letter and thats it. Im thinking to resign and find another job. Is it possible or is there any negative effects of doing that?

I see. In your opinion what is the best way to change job in my case? Thx

Im not sure either. The letter that was given to me doesnt say anything about IPA. But the letter have my working permit number on it though.

I guess i just have to suck it up this time. Gonna try stay as long as i can.
