4. If I earn say RM9k in Malaysia, will the 15% typical increase be from RM or SGD? 9k Ringgit is just 3k SGD

Hi TS, I have a question.

Let say if the company I interviewed hire a 3rd party for background research. And I was given a consent form regarding background checking. There is a part where I need to answer YES or NO for them to verified my info with current employer. My question is;

1) If I said NO, will the company drop me from their list of hiring? or they just assume that this step is a plus point for them to hire me?

2) If YES, 3rd party company will contact HR to verified my details including salary. What is the consequences for me with current company if I still don't get hire by the company after the background checking?

I believe the background checking is the last stage of hiring process, right?

Why many recruiters want people to send them a resume first, before introducing job later?

Because they feel that explaining a bunch of information to someone without knowing if they are qualified or a fit for the role is a waste of time. They want to know if the resume is worth for KIV.
If your resume is nice, they may call you, if not, expect to be ghosted.

But some recruiters didn't post the job title and description first ( especially in LinkedIn, private message), they want people to send resume first, which I think is weird.

It takes both ways, and applicants also won't know whether they qualify for the job role by just sending their resume first.

I'm in between jobs so thought of doing something fun (and hopefully helpful for the job seekers community).

A little bit about myself:

I have 10 years experience in Recruitment (7 years in a top recruitment firm in Malaysia and 3 years as an internal recruiter in a Tech company). In my career, I've been promoted 5 times and went from a Junior Recruitment Consultant to where I am now as a Recruiting Manager. I absolutely miss my agency days where I was raking $$$ from making placements across Malaysia. Took a (indirect) cut to do internal recruitment in hope to be more involved in recruiting ops and strategy and have never looked back since.

I've spoken to approximately 7000 candidates, placed more than 600 of them in jobs, met with at least 1000 hiring managers throughout my career in Malaysia and Singapore. Having seen the variance between offers, experiences and screening through countless of CVs, I hope I'll be able to answer any questions you may have

I've recruited for a wide range of roles including Finance, Sales & Marketing, Technology (currently) and Strategy related positions. I spend every week talking to candidates, understanding the needs and wants of different hiring managers and companies, prepping candidates to ace interviews and negotiating the best possible offers for them so ask away!

what is the pay range for a 5 years IT business analyst/IT product manager can be looking at
