Hi there guys,

Been reading the posts every now and then. I have been here in Sg for around 2 months+ and currently renting a room from a small family (the landlady+ her son) 4 bustops away from TiongBahru/ Outram Mrt. This is a competently large air-conditioned (also with wall-fan) master bedroom ensuite bathroom with fully furnished utilites (queen-sized bed, double wardrobe, tv, working desk, broadband and a cosmetic table). Light cooking is allowed, and laundry is included as well. I am considering a roomate to stay in with me as it would be rather cost-saving and also to help out each other whenever there is a need.

I am a working female in my 20s, pretty easy going and straight person that loves to share the happiness. I travel back Msia once/twice a month so there would be weekends that you have the room on your own (vice versa if you would balik kampung too  ). I am okay with guests coming in for as long as they behave decently as guests. Do pm me if you like the sound of my conditions in which they suit your living/working style here in sg.

Gender: strictly female
Age: 20s - 30s
Smoker/ non-smoker preferred: non- smoker
Nationality: Malaysian
Rental budget: 350 - 400
Lifestyle: Clean and tidy
Personality, if meets: loves good food and good music, matured thinker, aware of self-responsibility as a roomate

I will respond to the sincere and genuine queries.

  care to advise more..
ok lets put it this way.. my accommodation will be free, since i got relatives there..
so issit better for me to be there to hunt for jobs, compared to staying here and spamming resume to companies in SG?

Hi guys,

I m interested to work in sg as an audit assistant. I have 2 years working exp n I have a degree from UTAR. Could anyone please kindly help me? May I know is it easy to get one considering now is off peak? Or should I wait till peak period? I have tried jobstreet and its been rather dissapointing...

Thanks.

My fren said SG got halal punya babi, is that true?

i'll add to that question as well

1. do you/will you apply PR ? if you have the chance. why?

First rule of asking people to recommend you for jobs in LYN,... don't be a bullshitting forum troll.

How come your 2nd class lower LLB became a diploma overnight? You're full of it.

I think everyone here would appreciate it if you'd stop trolling and posting in this thread.

My work place also got a girl who is working in marine industry, and she has to go onsite quite often. I dont see her complaining and she accept that it is part of her job and gives her more "hands on" experience rather be a "pencil pusher". Plus she gets more exposure to on field training as well as having more indept look on the technical and physical aspects of the job.

You forgot 2 mention that she is a girl. Nowadays as an employer they dont give 2 crap about whether u girl or boy, if you can do the job then settled. Its the employee which is one who wants 2 pick which job suites he/she. Since you dug your own grave, just lie in it.

Btw i have a fren who is working in KPMG malaysia, does anybody know the market rate for an auditor with 3 years exp? Btw currently he works OT sometimes 4-5 hours a day but doesnt get any OT pay. He graduate from tarc with an accountancy degree from UK and has ACCA cert.

The unskilled ones are the first who will be laid off. The skilled and professional ones.. can find a better job but the job market may be tightening as companies begin to implement hiring freeze.

Next year, if recession persist, we will see..waves of unskilled Malaysians will move back to Malaysia, then waves of unskilled Indo/Bangla/Burmese will move out of Malaysia back to their home country.

Unskilled Malaysian can pickup the slacks left by foreign workers.

I think, I might be wrong, but some opinions about employing Malaysian PR.  some compaines - no need NS for male employee, no need to excuse them unlike Singaporeans.  advantages as can be seen.  but again not all like that.  PR can have better bargaining terms like locals, at least, 13month bonus is must in SG law on top of bonus if any should company do well. 

What it actually means, that bonus is the 13th month of the year.  At the end of a 12 month cycle, you get an extra 1 month. That is on top of whatever extra bonuses should the company declare to be given away at the end of the year.

LoL... i wonder why this thread suddenly all discussing about yamcah, dim sum, shopping, discounts, download torrents, bus tickets etc.. i tot we should discuss about job related?

Thanks for the info

me wan to job hop for so long...
but all those salary not worth for me to jump(plz dont tell me in future money not important)
well looking for those that can give me bout 30% more on my currently salary...
n i'm ready to sacrifice my time...

This is absolutely true, this is wat companies in Tuas/Bukit Batok must do to attract employees.
All of us like to work in CBD. If those companies in the outskirts don't pay about $200 to $300 more, no one will be willing to work in Tuas area where you cant assess there by MRT.

This is what I experience, last time I got a job offer in Tuas, they willing to pay me $4000 but in City Hall, they willing to pay me $3,750 only. Both companies are listed and are in the similar industry and my designation oso the same. So in the end, I work in Tuas.

yeah i dont understand also...

Receive bad news from my boss....

I am the 1st person to enter into the room 1-by-1.
Economy recession hit my company already. Investor couldn't afford to pump in fund anymore. 90% will be retrench(but boss keeping me and my other colleague ONLY) and cost will be totally cut down, meaning operation will be home based already. IT IS THAT SERIOUS.

I am real sad now, I need to leave some of my colleague. We are small based company and we work very happily. Haiz. Life is tough especially recession

Just outta curiosity, I noticed that cars are kinda cheap.Honda Stream only selling for SGD70K.
Assuming a person were to  buy a Honda Stream, how much is the COE?

A 7-series is only selling for SGD250K in Singapore 

Pity you. I got my current job by applying and then traveling down to SG for an interview. I am an IT graduate but unfortunately the job I got is non-IT related. You could stay in SG while looking for a job provided you have any friends/relatives whom you may stay with. Renting a hotel/room here is not cheap.

Added on
I just found out that the guy renting the room beside me passed away early this morning due to breathing difficulties and heart failure.

yeah services eg singtel starhub etc when u apply for it u need to put deposit
interview also not yet go u already 100% sure u r hired? during interview ask them about their financial position n y they r hiring since u heard about the retrenchment tats all u can do if u like the job then accept it if not then u can always say no n stay wif ur old job

40% pay cut <==== WAH LAO EH!!!! Damn pity lorr.. That's really too much already. Is it even legal??

Her pay cut could eventually get back during bonus. As their regional office need to report to HQ their financial, so the cut will be replace during bonus which is twice a month. But heck, if you spend all your bonus, every month could be suffering already.
