Hiya!

Just want to know about the chances of corporate comm professionals getting a job in Singapore. I am a writer and working in a bluechip company in KL in corporate comm area and yeah, getting tired of Malaysia shaky political scene. And generally Singapore society is more open-minded compared to Malaysia and that really attracts me.

I have checked the major websites about jobs in Singapore but apparently there are not many in the area of corporate comm. Wonder should i go down, stay and find jobs there? I hope not coz that's financially too risky for me. Most of my friends say i should stand pretty good chance given that i am educated abroad but somehow i have no luck in Singapore.

Perhaps anyone of you can educate me a bit on how to increase my chances of working there.

Hi, Byron

Thanks for the comment. Do you mean that i may have to start like a fresh grad in Singapore? Hmm... What would be the indicative salary range in this case? For me, it's only worthwhile if i can get something that pays me at least SGD3k and above. Fat hopes or possible?

Thanks for the advice and infomation. I am going to start the ball rolling and see what results i will get. The reason why i feel like going down south straight is because that i am able to meet my potential employers easier and faster but i know the risk that comes with it. With my savings, the most i can stay in Singapore without a job will be just two months after which i will have to beg if still remain jobless

I am definitely not a freshie anymore... Actually i have a few years of experience in corporate comm but the only thing that works against me is my media contact in Singapore which is basically zero. In this field, media contact means everything. Maybe i should really start from ground zero if i really want to go there.
