Hello, I'm graduating in November with Mech. Engineering degree in local IPTA. Is it advisable to look for jobs in SG now? Considering I'm going to work as soon as I finish my degree. Based on the V18, working as engineer in semicon isn't as rosy as I thought. Can anyone share their experience working as engineer in SG?

I would say it's comparable across the peer group.

[PSA] China scammer - DHL - Singapore (Mandarin speaking, no English)

Received an automated call to office today. Scammer with Chinese accent Mandarin, was a pain talking to them with my broken Mandarin

1.Receive automated voice call - DHL has a package stuck in customs, press 9 to speak to a personal (cannot see the phone number)
2. Person A named Song Jie (id 1919) - fake details me think - ask for my details - provide fake info (name, etc)
shipment stuck in Shenzhen to Singapore .. contain 6 fake passport .. did u sent? .. hell no
3. Long story short, get transferred to Person B - police office of Shenzhen - Juan Shi Jie - also fake .. you are suspect, etc etc. 1mdb case, this guy Khau Jiang sent money to your account in Shenzhen, etc etc. Must be mistaken identity case, I didn't do that, giv IC to verify. Scammer know I give wrong format Singapore IC, need to search Internet to get SG IC format. Scammers did their homework
4. Give fake account number to them (but surprisingly they don't want credit card details) just the 3 numbers of your bank account. (to make to con seems legit?)
5. Penalty of fraud high, go jail, whipping, will freeze your assets. This is where it get interesting. Have walktie talkie FX, etc ... investigation going on, police getting details.
6. Give fake address and other details - wife, son, etc
7. Call got disconnected
8. Fake policeman called again (+86 755 3304 8446 - toll charge number ?)
9. Finish making report .. since so many fraud case ask you to apply for priority investigation with chief investigator (Person B police boss), call +86 755 3304 8446 - case number 00918
10. Didn't call .. they call back .. say sorry phone no IDD . OK nevermind .. they investigating .. will call me at 6pm .

I think the 6pm call will be where the con start. Or it was just a phishing trip to get details for another con (ie your name, SG IC, bank account number any use as only last 3 digits?) ??

All in all took 1+ hours .. maybe my broken Mandarin

Haha nice one. Myself and few of my colleagues received this call. Some listened and replied with some funny remarks.

This is famous scam now. Reported in radio

it's been a while since I post anything here.

Do you all know where to get safety shoes in town?

Co never provide?

Wondering anyone has issue with malaysia sim card on iphone (ios 9)?

I had my malaysia Digi sim card put inside my spare iphone (running ios 9), I turned off mobile data, data roaming, location service, wifi assist, all OFF. Called Digi to turn off my voice mailbox for roaming too. Leave it on wifi all the time. Yet, there's still charges on Digi data roaming! The data being consume is small, every packet only 1KB according to Digi.

I check under the data usage on my iphone, it shows 0KB. So I really scratch my head what's wrong, I can't turn off the phone completely as I still want to receive sms.
This "data leaking" is driving me nuts, my wife iphone also has the same issue

Anybody has a clue what is wrong?

They provide PPE other than safety boots.

We have to get it ourself and reimbursed back later.

Having said that i need to get back to my HR for employee badges and laptop.

Only Monday i went to office. Tuesday till now in factory or customer's site.

Any tips on interview with a Singapore Big 4? Will be having a phone interview with them soon and hopefully I can land a job in Singapore

Good day everyone,

Would like to seek opinion on working in USS.

1. Any requirement of having PR to work in USS?
2. Other than applying thru Resort World website, any email or direct contact for applying job?

3. Anyone here experienced in working in USS? How's the working culture inside?

What position/corporate rank are you going for? U ever work in a big4 in msia before?

try porting over to prepaid simcard? then you won't need to worry about extra charges. I use a hotlink prepaid simcard here and still can receive sms and tac from bank. amount in the card is prepaid amount, so I only top up when needed.

Answer whatever question they ask. Don't exxagerate, keep it simple.

Applied as a Senior/AM level, currently with one of the big 4 in MY

I know can request for internal transfer to Sg, but there have been bad experience between MY and SG, the partners here will try not to approve any transfer from MY to SG
