Hey, guys. Usually how long needed to rent a room ? 1 week can settle ? How about your experience ?

I was drawing $5.5k with 3-4 years experience as a BI developer in a foreign bank, never OT everyday yumcha 3 times.

You really should just look for other companies, 6k for BI lead is waaaaay too low.

I always practice 1 month to finalize the contract and all the minor details (name, FIN, address)

thanks... appreciate the actual comparison...

me too think i should stand firm on minimum SGD7k with my current experience and skillset.

How is the BI job market in SG now?
Seems like a lot of lay off / close down is happening..

Any opening that you know for MSBI?

yumcha 3 times, who say work in SG is stressful

India firm....dealing with those fella from India can make u

YMMV.
Yumcha 3x doesn't mean no stress.

Exactly.

On contrary the Filipinos are much better to work with.
My ex company is shifting their recruitment source there.

If you first timer, minimum need 2 weeks, 1 week to settle all the documents and stuff and 1 week to move stuff from malaysia to SG, settle down, buy appliances etc.

if you are already staying in SG, depending on how many stuff you have lor, for me just 1 weekend everything done.
get a mover to help move everything, simple and fast.

got ppl say stressful? pretty ok I think.

What he meant was he was getting paid SGD1.07 for every RM1 he previously earned in Malaysia.

I myself 5 years ago was also only earning RM2300 in Malaysia but when i move to SG, i manage to secure a BD role paying SG2700, so that's SG1.17 to RM1.

not all jobs require you to downgrade your pay when moving over to SG, you will need to fight for your pay and not get pushed around by HR

yes , agree with you,
sometime is also depends on ur luck on finding those good company that appreciate you

like my case im lucky getting pay higher than most of my friend in the same industry in sg.

Do you have to standby like 24 x 7?

Maybe you haven't notice the lagging when you're still in SGD2k++,
Usually SGD3k and above starts to lag. The higher you get in your salary, the harder you make a jump. When you're at SGD6k, your employer doesn't
necessary to increment 10% each year like before.
Even 50 yo Singaporean PMET losing his job at SGD 3.8k.

Good luck for you

Erm... No idea bro, but dealing with keling is not easy, due to language barrier I think. Other than that, overall is not bad. Better than chinaman company.

thanks for correcting me.
i was hired as a fresh grad in malaysia, and sent to SG for training, after which they decided to keep me in SG as permanent. Salary conversion back then i got was RM1:S$1

i get SGD 0.8 : MYR 1...sadly 20% reduction

i got a question,what documents do we require from employer for PR application other than Annex A to Form4A

No need to.
5 days 9-6 job basically.

Is Mountbatten a good place to stay? Is it true that 2k salary can get EP?
