QUOTE(Soony @ Sep 5 2016, 03:06 PM) Is there any considerations of starting your career in Singapore first before considering the move elsewhere? Banking is not really a big thing in Australia comparing to Singapore and Hong Kong. Also, with regards to any jobs not related to your field, that's what a lot of people say but after a year, that thinking changes. Be very careful and be clear with what you want to achieve in Australia. To be rich? This is not the place. For the kids, then you are getting somewhere. Just my two cents worth. Australian asset management is pretty decent though. Probably because theres tonnes of super funds around to feed the asset managers |

QUOTE(kenji1903 @ Nov 2 2016, 10:37 AM) good for you  my wife already accepted the fact of leaving, actually we didn't thought it will be so soon... but since i already found a job, it should be a lot better than going there and search for one later on... Good la. One couple shud have the same goals. Can be quite stressful and sad when.both partners want different things . Good luck dude. Hopefully u love australia |

QUOTE(Progineer @ Nov 17 2016, 12:55 PM) Desperate times calls for desperate measures. Msia is really abandon ship time. QUOTE(DarReNz @ Nov 17 2016, 01:23 PM) it's quite common. i've got an uncle who used to be CFO in msia/sg, now in oz is just an accountant mate  Good for both sides also la. Then i can get promoted to take over these ppl's roles back home. Otherwise if they stay here, i also very hard to move up... |

QUOTE(z21j @ Dec 7 2016, 09:09 AM) Well, yes. I have better work-life balance in SG, as I have a team that is willing to work equally hard to achieve the common goal together. In OZ, I feel like I'm more of one-man show whereby my team (non-Asian) will just leave the office on the dot irrespective whether they can finish their works or not. Being the team manager, I'm the one who stay late (cannot claim OT/in-lieu etc) to complete the juniors' team members work. I have never had this kind of experience in SG. Considering the work-life balance aspect, I've got no choice. I hope I'm not the only one that feel "no work-life balance" in OZ land (yes, another aspect is that I care about my job being a professional, so I just don't understand when people can just leave the office on the dot whereby the tasks cannot be completed.) If you are still in audit, I think you are in for a surprise in SG. |

QUOTE(Soony @ Apr 28 2017, 07:20 AM) Come over to Perth where we are always by the beach. Pretty sure $400k Aud can get you a place close to the beach, but a bit far off from the CBD. Ya my friend on fb (somehot chick and one lucky guy) has a beautiful tw story apartment that overlooks the sea in perth. Im soooooo massively jealous. (Of the house and that guy) |
