Hi guys, i would like to ask opinions from all the sifus here. I am currently dilemma on choosing my next job.

Option 1: 3.7k SGD per month (Yes, have to reside at Singapore)
Option 2: 7k MYR per month (My hometown, Selangor)

I am 28 years old in IT industry. Currently reside in PJ, stayed at Singapore for 3 months last year and i dont feel happy working and staying there.

But MYR is unstable due to recent economic situation. Which 1 do you think i should take? Thank you.

Why is it called business analyst? I tot u analyse businesses lol. So u r an IT specialist acting as a medium between client and another group of IT developers? This is essentially an IT related job, am I right?

Job Title : Senior Human Resource Executive
Job Description : Generalist (currently focus on payroll and compensation & benefit)
Years spent in company : 6 years (Same Company upgraded from clerical up to current position)
Industry : Insurance
Tenure : Permanent
Employment Level : Sr Executive
Experience before joining : 0 years
Highest paper qualification/ education background : Degree
Salary : RM3.3k
Location: Klang Valley

I'm 28 this year and thinking of starting a family. But I feel my pay quite low to start one. Currently job hunting and asking for RM 5K. Is it ok or should I lower the expectation?

I've just completed my degree last year off-campus and thought is time to leave my current company.

Thank You,

It is really an eye opener.  Perhaps I was to busy with my study till i've not notice it.
Currently in the market HR is gone out of the basic of only administration to development. But I've notice more company are hiring IR and litigation for HR. So which skill I should polish? Development (Training and Branding) or IR (Disciplinary & litigation)

Thank You for the suggestion, but there always be the low balling in the industry. I need them to feel the recruiter win some actually. I'm targeting 4.2 to 4.5k for next jump.

Then again the industry is quite slow now days and my current job had become mundane. Maybe I should lower the expectation.
I'm Looking to do Master in business administration. Currently it is the fastest to complete and cheap for my line. Is ok? or is it a waste of investment and go for a specialist master such as Human resource development, psychology or leadership?

Maybe i'm just to long here. In my current company doing the job that nobody wants (a bit tricky or dirty such as "retrenchment").

Yeah in this job we try to help people but people will never understand. I believe myself one of the unsung heroes haha.

100 x 3 = 3,000 and + 3.5k = 6.5k and getting close to 7k so nope. + own thinking underpaid. So nope. Overpaid definitely 100%.

I work in Financial industry. Yeah its decent paid but when he think he is underpaid then he is overpaid. Its just that simple.

Also it seems you are the one generalize saying I never experience such thing. Now who is the one who is ermmmm generalize and make assumption?

My new company really likes me, coz I did well in the written test and stress/ case interviews. The management is willing to wait for me as I need to serve 2 months' notice. I am also the only new staff they're hiring, according to HR, though the position was open to the public (on their official website & Jobstreet etc)... AFTER I was hired. There was no competition & the whole process was fast and smooth--my work pass was approved in 5 hours.

As much as I wanted to believe, either HR lied to u to make u happy, or your story isn't right.
In SG, there is a policy called FCF by MOM (Google it up), it is almost impossible to hire a "foreign employee" without going through Jobsbank for 14 days AND Work Pass approval in 5 hours. Based on what you shared, neither yourself or your future employer fall within "exemption" to the policy.
There is no such as ads posted after u was hired OR no competition throughout the process.

In other words, I'll never run out of jobs that I can pick and choose from. & I get to experience working different jobs for different companies and industries = never boring / stagnant, and at the same time, discover my interests and passion, and build a large network of contacts. People like me are called multipotentialites, & if you've never heard of this term, google it.

If you think about it, the 21st century workplace is a far more challenging, ever-changing workplace. 

"Economic, demographic, and technological changes are all contributing to a transformation that is making the corporate ladder — a metaphor well suited for the industrial world of the last century — obsolete."

"(In the corporate lattice model) Well-rounded workers keep their skills relevant, and firms are more agile and better able to drive innovation."


Indeed what u said is partially true. However, there is limitation to those what u mentioned because we don't live in an ideal world and things just don't follow textbook or theoretical terms.
All rounder does not mean multipotentialites because there is limit to different industries and specialty. This is back to supply & demand, a hiring manager in Financial industry hardly hire a person from O&G industry, vice-versa.
Chances are so low to zero unless the roles and work scope are the same, even that, if hundreds of people applying for the same job - literally the person will not get a chance to be interviewed or shortlisted.
