Welcome to SG!

Bank account I think it depends on which bank. I opened mine @ DBS with just the IPA letter.
Mobile wise, M1 requires the physical EP.

OCBC doesn't take IPA, valid card required.

Hello. Thanks for replying.

I plan to open bank account with DBS as many people say it is common everywhere and can remit back to Msia.

Certain outlets open on weekend right?

For Mobile package i just went to Singtel and they request for physical work pass.

Anyway, will go for M1 see whether they have corporate plan or not. Cheap and cheerful

Hi guys,

May I know how many Resume you sent in before you get you first job in Singapore?

Just for sharing purpose.

TQ

To be easily employed everywhere not just in SG, if you have connections - even relatives or short acquaintances that you exchange name cards with, can land you a job.

If you submit resume like the rest of the population, get ready for rejections

I've never stepped in SG in the first 23 yrs in my life but I got my first job in SG without referral/knowing anyone immediately after graduation from non-SG uni. That was 4 yrs ago. Sent 2, received invitation for interview = 1.
