Sg saturday Straits time have 285 pages and only cost 80 cent. Imagine how big is the volume of it.

I try looking job in singapore too. Still hunting...

If you earn MY3k and SGD3k, i believe u will have better life in singapore because you will have more money to spend

I just start work in sg for 1 weeks. So far so good.
When u come here and go shopping, u realize alot of thing is so cheap compare to KL
Must resist yourself to keep spending.

you can work in sg too if you want to.
Just make the initiative to apply job and go interview in sg even it is tiring.

Depends what field but I think is not that difficult to get a job there. M e, my gf and my friends all manage to get job here.

If your EP is already pending approval you will have the FIN number . So you should be able to rent any room. If not you can tell the owner you will give the FIN number once your EP approve, i think should not be a problem

Pending approval = approve before medical checkup. Unless after medical checkup you have AIDS or TB then you will fail.

If you have confidence your EP will approve(normally), you can get a room first. Of course you will lose the deposit u pay if you din get the EP later.

yup, I am in sg now. Just start working in sg not long ago
All the place you mention is quite hard and expensive to get room . Good luck

you can go www.sg-house.com to try get room. Currently is hard to get a room without go through agent.

btw, what is process analyst?

The place you mention SGD350 will be minimum price for a room without air cond if you are lucky enough because it is quite near to town.

Just go to sg-house.com and www.efair to check out the price. You might be want find place far a bit.

dude, I have gf and my gf work in sg as well. haha

I work in west coast as IT slave.

I need to help my gf find room around commonwealth, buona vista those area. Then mountain will be my gf competitor for looking room. lol

LDR hard to maintain, ask ur bf go sg as well.

Mountain, where you from, if you from JB do not have to scare, the worst case travel through kastam everyday

So you will come sg and stay in hotel till you get room? I suggest you contact those agent straight( from the forum and newspapre) when you here since you need it so urgently. Or you can tumpang eric84cool house, i think he wun mind. haha

eric84cool, what is your job? you been long time in sg?

Singapore more favor to jobsdb compare to jobstreet.
When I am looking for job, i got none reply from jobstreet and few interview request from jobsdb application.

I went back hometown because my grandpa pass away. This week also not free, see got any agent call or not.

You no need car or motor if you stay in Singapore. They have world class public transport.

there is a lot type of permit to work in sg. If you holding Employment pass or S pass, you can apply PR without any problem. If you holding work permit only, i think need meet certain criteria before you can apply PR or cannot apply. Not sure though

Just go www.jobsdb.com.sg or www.st701.com

Nope, i get quite few call from singapore when I am still work in KL though.

Singapore prefer jobsdb compare jobstreet. I get zero call from jobstreet too but several call from jobsdb application. Good luck

hmm, what is option trading? can msg me for more info? quite interest as well. haha

goolie, just try your luck but like aboe mention the IT salaries quite varies because there is too much competition in IT field from India, filipines, china, malaysia. so the salaries quite low compare finance and engineering fields.

Some can just get below sgd2k for 1-2 yrs exp. But since you are using c++, it should be abit higher. But i dun think you can reach 3k yet unless your resume and experience is very attractive.

I work in IT fields in sg as well. can msg me if u want know more details

yeah, another thing is you need to get working exp in singapore. I am not sure why since i notice not much different ( may be i work in MNC in msia and as well singapore, so not much diff)

As I notice, if your working exposure is good, after you been working sometime in singapore especially after you get your PR status. You will get call from those agencies asking your current status and latest resume automatically.

The advantage i think is you still get same pay with singapore graduate.
Normally malaysia graduate get lower pay compare singapore graduate in singapore for fresh graduate.
Not very sure too, please correct me if I am wrong
