Is it wise to rent a place in sengkang while working at raffles place?

Why not? My friend is doing that daily. But if you can find nearer, it would be better right

Anyone heard of Pearl's Hill Terrace before? Heard it's ex-Police Force's Headquarters.

Im on the same boat as you. Also just grad, tried my luck in Sg, none came unfortunately, but got a job in Msia so work for now. Dunno if during my current work i should continue applying for jobs there? Im under probation at my.current company for 6 months. Or should i just go up till 1 year then only give another try at Sg applications?
*
Keep applying. It takes time to process everything

Lets say the very hopeful scenario is, i get an offer in Sg but I'm still on probation at my current company. Is it ok to just leave during this probation period...?
*
Why not? Just serve the notice period of your probation.

Don't be surprised if you see any employee working in SG leave 3 days after work commencement laugh.gif

Usually it applies to locals. In my ex-firm, most applicants we received worked for just less than a year and jump. Even their salary also fluctuate like stock market *up and down*

Apply for job of course. Do a lot of applicants these days apply directly to employers?

Besides jobstreet, do you know of any other job sites popular in singapore? Like monster.com? strait times?
*
Both. If you see job application in company A in jobstreet, apply for it and at the same time, send direct email to employers also.

how is the job changing process for EP?
1) do medical at new company
2) new company apply EP
3) EP approved and current company get notified?

When should i inform my boss? between 2 and 3 or after 3?
When should i handover my current EP and change to new EP?
*
Here's what I done previously.

1) New company apply EP
2) Tender once it gets approved
3) Handover existing EP back to current employer and wait for 1-2 weeks for the new EP to deliver to your new employer once you start your new job
4) No need to do medical if your current EP is still valid
