the problem is if someone got a job der. the house owner will take this opportunity to raise up the rented room fees.

to jimmy79..
is it important for the resume besides working experience when applying job? do u know how should i write the attractive resume? can i download sample resume from internet?

Besides that, what is the most important things between degree cert & working experience in s'pore? for ur information, i have juz come out to work since last year April 2006. At that time, i work as web designer and learn to do the dynamic site by using flash tools and some deign software..i work about 6months there...

After that, find my direction in my career!!! I work as software engineer somewhere at penang currently...nearly 1 year experience...from there, i learn to use C & C++ language and apply its on doing the embedded application..

i juz wanna make sure that is it possible for me to get the pay around 2500-3000sgd after having 1 year working experience at penang? how should i judge for my final actually?
Do u have any recommendation for me to apply job from the company which will provide me the accomodation, meals and transport??

Let say now i have degree cert and 1 year working experience(engineering field), then what is the standard pay that normally will be given? lets talk about the minumum pay that i surely can get it...(i need to count out the bad intention which may include bad luck sometimes when applying job). Is it still possible to get > 2000sgd?

if u dun mind goolie. i can shared wif u bout my bro which was started as a programmer at SG as well. My bro started at around SGD1600 roughly 4 years ago. While in Malaysia, he got more than 2 years working experience. Only the last year which was related to Computer but as a Tutor only.

Normally, Singaporean employer won't care bout ur Malaysia University Degree. If Oversea cert holder then u got extra requirement. As u only got 1 year of working experience, i afraid u will be offer around SGD1600 to SGD2000. Well, dun get discourage. U will get better pay after u working for a year or more in any related field in SG. Then, u will be automatically pump up ur value.

Singaporean taking us(Malaysian) as foreign labour. Our salary is very hard to competitive wif local Singaporean. This is why we got chances to get employed. Employer believe we will be more hardworking than Singaporean. Now IT field in SG is getting even challenging, since Indonesian, Indian, & China ppl are struggling in Singapore too.

Anyway, try to get more certificate to upgrade ur status while u happen to work in SG. It is very important in Singaporean society. Especially IT field. Else, u dun hope u can get promote much easier. They want u to haf a shining background instead of just bloody skill.

I got a friend waiting for 5 years cuz his supervisor said he will promoting him. Now oredi 5th year nothing happend even my friend is so hardworking. Then another friend get promoted immediately cuz he studied for a certificate. This is very truth. Singaporean very care bout their employee's images & background.

Well, der would be different & lucky person. I am just sharing what happend to ppl surrounding me.
