Just a safety precaution incase ur last month salary cannot cover the tax imposed on you......

i'm gonna send them the URL that you provide and ask them for clarification.

there is more criterias for EP, not only salary and the rest are pretty judgemental

hey guys, I will finish study at the end of October this year, and think to find a job at Sg. Can recommend me where to find all the available vacancy for fresh grads? I don't have any friends nor family at Sg so I'm really start fresh now. Thanks guys!

Jobstreet, jobsdb, monster,

Or if u knw those company u like check on their website or direct email to them

I got my first job by direct email

WP holder is not eligible to apply for PR, although i have heard success story of married couple with 1 half holding WP get approved.

The company does not need to pay levy for E Pass, whereas the levy for WP is quite high. although employer may say it does not affect your pay but in fact it does. Imagine levy charges was saved to pay you every month instead of MOM. WP is for non-skilled worker, if you meet the criteria of EP then should go for it.

I can't understand why employers prefer to pay levy instead of applying EP which is free from levy. As i know the application can be either EP or EP/S Pass, even if you get a S Pass also not as bad as WP.

As long as the primary applicant meet the all the criterias, that is good enough. Secondary applicant (spouse) doesn't even have to hold a working pass. It is been like that all along.

yes, for married couple but for individual holding WP then no chance since there is no such option listed at ICA website.

hi, im a fresh graduate looking to finding an audit job in sg. Anyone know whats the std salary for fresh grad in mid tier as well as small audit firm right now? my friend used to say around $2800-3000 but thats for big 4 and they are only interested in experienced foreigners right now according to my lecturer so no hope for me.

and is it advisable to include our expected salary in our cv?

the std rate for a small room is around $600 but what if i dont need air-cond? would it be cheaper and if so by how much?
i alr had enough of sharing room with ppl back in my uni days cuz im very sensitive to light and sound and suffered insomnia as a result. so if possible im really like to stay in a cheap small room all to myself.

thx to all the kind-hearted sifus in advance

welcome welcome to sg

pm me fb for more detail discussion

Not sure about audit jobs...
But usually audit job no life one...Always work until 3 or 4 am...
I suggest to survey in Malaysia and put around the same salary for application...

For rooms, it really depend on the places, 500 - 650 without aircon...
Or else, you can always get a job in Malaysia for experience before considering SG...
Maybe 1 or 2 years... Good luck...

That's a rare "Female" tag here in WIS Thread.

It could be harder now coz SG just recently (few days back) raised the salary bracket for EP to 3.6k.

Although Malaysian can get EP even with 2.5k. It could be a chance to us too since it's now more stringent to hire foreigners (excluding M'sian?).

Not finance/banking/audit field. Just dropped by for that female tag to say Hi

With and without aircond not really much difference here. Most rooms for rent here are probably with aircond.
It gets quite hot sometimes in the year.

Other than that... Bigger part of it is area dependent. If you can travel further daily to work, you can get probably 150-200 off similar conditioned room.

600-650 in the central area is super rare. Standard rent for single common room without attached bathroom easily 750-800 in central area (Red hill/tiong bahru/teluk blangah etc).

All the way till Buona Vista/Clementi also similar price range. Don't even think about staying near Orchard/CBD

Shoo shoo buaya!!

audit job really no life, think carefully before you commit. work till 8 or 9pm on weekdays is quite common for auditors, sometimes weekend also need to OT.

if you really want to go into audit line, make sure you go for those big firms since it is better for your career enhancement. If anyhow also need to OT then rather OT for big firms which is more worth it.

room without air cond at $500-$600 should have a lot of options, of course not near Central area

yea, i know it is kind of hard to land an o&g job in singapore now. that's why i am also open to other related industries such as petrochem.

hehe are u in audit/accounting field by any chance?

Well not me, but many of my fren in big4, even my roomate in acct , not big4 but commercial side

whoah it's even worse in sg? i know audit in msia for big firms would drag until 2-3am during peak period.
oh i guess the salary range is around $2200-2600 for mid firms...

lol why is it rare to see female tag here? is it cuz girls only go to sg where they have connections and relatives there?
ya i read abt the salary rise also, but i dont think any fresh grads can get salary that high for their 1st job with nil experience

can i ask how further is further? can reach workplace within 1-1.5hrs by mrt or bus? i know sg is small maybe just like penang?

thx for all the reviews on accom! really appreciate it

simply this forum seldom got female

Tats why
