Maybe try a different platform? I know that SG employers have moved on from Jobstreet and many of them are recruiting via Linkedin or Monster.

Oh didn't know that. Most of my application on JobStreet
Only 1 or 2 applied through Linkedin but redirected me to their company website

Maybe I should try indeed/jobdb whatever platform available

Also I asked my friend in SG help me ask around too

But if u said SG employer moved from JobStreet but why they still post their job ad on JobStreet? Lol

Some of them post just for posting coz SG gov got this rule requiring them to post for a position for how long before they can employ a foreigner kind of thing. But it says posting it on CareersFuture not so sure.

https://www.mom.gov.sg/employment-practices...ation-framework

Other than that, maybe just the market not good enough for hiring? Maybe they need 1 candidate but 1000 applied? I do hear from friends citing harder to get job in recent months.

Guys
Any idea why after applied 50 job applications on JobStreet
Most of them "received" but didn't even review?
The rest all "not suitable" aka rejected

Is it me putting too high expected salary? Sgd4-4.5k consider high??
I researched the market offer the salary is common for this pos

Not sure what went wrong

Or I must put 3k only they will consider?
3k might as well I stay in msia

Maybe your profile just doesn't look good?
Hard for anyone to say whether your asking is high without any details about you or even the role you're applying for.

Hi all, I am currently a Business Analyst with 1.3 years experience (1st job) after Graduate Trainee which was a 6-month contract but is in Branding Department.

I have experience in writing Python and some of its library such as Pandas, requests, beautifulsoup. I also know how to read and write Javascript for Google Appscript and SQL, may I know how much can I ask for if I want to look for a job in Singapore?

Also, seems hard to even find a job related to Business Analyst, I have been looking for Data Analyst/Business Analyst/Junior Data Engineering but can't seem to find any in Malaysia. Can anyone give advice if its better to stay in Data Analytics field or go back to Branding better?

ps: I studied Hospitality Management, does this affect how much I get paid in Singapore?.

Hi all,
I got a job in SG and flying there soon.

I got my IPA letter with FIN number, but I still not done my body check up yet, so i havent got my physical EP card.

would it be possible for me to register a DBS account online at this moment?
cause the registration is asking for my address.
I have my address, but how can i prove that I live there? since I havent got my EP card.
(usually we will have our registered address on a physical EP card?)

If i want to register a DBS account, another thing they want is a singaporean registered number, which I dont have currently as well.

any sifu can advise a bit?

No need to rush, just get here first then only open account. Without your EP it's harder. I suggest you to just use cash for the first month then prepare for the account afterwards. Company can either pass you cheque or just debit to you once your account is ready.

During my time I've done the same, also my bro who just came over like late last year. But I passed him my secondary account card for him to draw money to use for the first 2 months until he finally got his account done haha.

since i do not have EP card yet,

Hi,

I was wondering is there any malaysia telco plan that offer roaming calls in sg as part of their monthly plan?

Something similar like the ones offered by Simba/redone but for MY number?

Most telco i saw charge by per minute or force u to take up overpriced daily/weekly/monthly roaming passes

I want to take calls only, not data roaming.

At Changi Airport you can buy a sim from those UOB counter or StarHub booth T1. Postpaid need EP. But if you have a local contact u can get giga! Pretty cheap and runs on StarHub network. 7E sell SingTel. Don’t recommend orange telco

Once ur here first day of work your company can issue letter to prove your residence address.

After got EP can register Singpass. Pls remember set the address correct to your place else it will likely send to the company oops.gif

You can get from some convenience store also (7-11/Cheers, note that not all have it in stock).

When I get it for my bro end last year, it was from Cheers I think but that was in the town already since I picked him up from Woodlands train checkpoint. May or may not find it in 7-11/Cheers at airport. That plan was like $10 or $15 with some credit and data included. Registration done online with Malaysia passport.

By the way, if you can, try find a number that you will keep haha then no need to switch number can just port to postpaid then switch carrier.

I'm still using the same number I bought from Changi Airport till date hahahaha.

hope someone who is renting out his/her room/house in Malaysia could help to answer my enquiry. It is about Malaysia tax declaration due to rental income.

I plan to rent out a room in KL (about rm 800 only) with tenancy agreement stamped duty. So my question is do i need to declare my rm 800/ monthly income due to the stamped duty tenancy agreement?

Yes LHDN need to declare rental income in MY.
Don’t worry: Your income one is zero if taxed by IRAS. Effectively 7200/year at worst case tax is only 1% 😂
