Hi all, I am a fresh grad (law) from UK and I would like to work in Singapore, is there any chance that I could enter a SG firm (who might have a connection with) to work (paralegal or otherwise - pls state via PM)?

I have an uncle who is a SG PR and there is no issue of accommodation.

Please do PM if anyone is interested to take/introduce me in.

Much appreciated!

I know a partner in Baker and Mckenzie Sg, but you got to do a lot of volunteers work in Singapore first just to get noticed and finally recommended by him to enter the firm right.

hmm.gif Thank for ur advice, to my understanding, Singapore Bar Council now does not really recognise UK Bar, so I wonder if the partner u knew in Baker & McKenzie SG is a Singaporean and he practised back in few years?

If yes to both of the questions, I can understand why the firm would want to take him.

Anyone else please help me out bangwall.gif

My friend is Malaysian graduated in NUS, practising in Sg for many years already.

I have a friend work in KL first, then transfer to Singapore commercial firm as general counsel

Your first friend who is a Malaysian and graduated in NUS is eligible to be admitted to Singapore Bar since s/he is graduated in Singapore local university.

As to your second friend, may I know s/he is working in which firm and that firm s/he is working with has a branch in Singapore issit?

Thanks

Hi Guys, currently working in the investments department of Khaza*nah nasional. Am looking to work in SG. Would anyone here who are currently working in SG happen to have any contacts for me to join the investments/equity/finance department of his/her company? smile.gif Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, working with khazanah should earn you quite a good salary right?
