Hi Everyone, I am hoping to get some advice on what happens to outstanding credit card accounts if I leave Singapore (and cancel my EP). Firstly, I want to clarify that I am not looking to "run" and leave the debit behind. I am simply looking to confirm whether the bank will ask for me immediate pay...

Hi Jess,

So sorry, been forgetting to check this forum. Yes, I am still at the Sail. Can usually play night-time on weekdays 7-10p and anytime during the weekend. Give me a shout if you're free!

Hi Everyone, I'm wondering if I could get some advice on the electricity bill (or maybe similar experiences). Is there a premium price for electricity within the CBD? I live in a studio unit, although we have 3 air conditioning units, we only use one, only at night-time from around 11p to 8a, and we...

hey...yeah i'd totally be up for something this weekend..i'm basically free all day....can run out to get some new balls in the morning.... as long as you don't mind i'm a bit rusty (and out of shape..haha)

Hi Everyone, I'm currently living at the Sail @ Marina Bay. I've been dying to get onto the tennis courts but have been having difficulties in finding a partner. I was wondering if anybody else here is interested in playing? I am at the intermediate level. Also interested in getting some coaching to...

Hi everyone, hoping you might be able to shed some light for me, as I am feeling the situation might be a little fishy. I am currently in a loan agreement which obligates me to service our air conditioners quarterly. As such, I have a one-year contract with a servicing company for the servicing. So ...

hi thanks, no, in the end i didnt' tell company B, definitely avoiding burning bridges.

well, if you end up getting a reputable job, the headhunter would just be the inbetween between the company and you during the hiring process. afterwards, you would be paid directly the company anyways. at least at the reputable international headhunters i believe that is how it works, not the local...

typical ones are michael page, robert walters, randstad, adecco, kelly services, etc...

hi everyone, just wanted to thank you again for all the advice. in the end, I am with company b, the first one that made me an offer. was a little concerned about the ep, since I keep hearing about rumours that it is getting harder and harder to get one, especially as my degree is actually completel...

would definitely recommend contacting some headhunters as they generally are able to give you better access to entry-level positions. or at the very least, they can increased your chances of getting an interview.

personally, i think the matter of whether you have an mba or not is not as important as the reason why you are doing the mba. some people simply do mba because they believe it will lead them to more money. then, when they finish, they take it for granted that more money should be offered to them, an...

given this in MOM: If a new recruit who has signed the Letter of Employment fails to turn up for work If a new recruit has signed the letter of employment but subsequently informed the employer that he does not intend to start work with the company and failed to turn up on his first day of work, the...

oh, and btw i am not in such a current situation yet, not on the verge of breaking the offer. however, i would just like to know the legal positioning in the event that over the next couple weeks, before the EP app is filed for the first company, what my options are.

if the terms come into effect the moment i sign it, then wouldn't they be liable for their side of the contract as soon as it's signed as well? (i.e. pay, insurance, etc, etc.) Furthermore, what would be my direct link with them considering that in Singapore, one must have an EP to be employed? yet,...
