on the safe side, hostels definitely do cater to social visit pass holders. Enlighten me a little, why would November not be a good time to start job hunting in SG? You are in IT aren't you? The IT industry is actively seeking talents all year round. Frankly, as an HR Manager of a 200+ staff SME he...

generalsu, you were doing fine almost all day until this evening. Your reference to body parts was definitely out of line. A word of advice here will keep you healthy here. You would do well to learn to play the ball instead of playing the player. If you cannot do that, you will be history in short...

I haven't met any Africans at any workplace in SG, so I have no experience with them, but then again, don't let race and looks bother you. Concentrate on your skill sets relevant to the job during interviews and speak with passion. If they reject you because of your race/looks, then it's their prob...

restrictive for a non-EU (Shengen zone) person to get a work permit. VERY. If you are from an EU country you can come and go out of here as you please (almost)...Switzerland is not in the Eu but they have a treaty for "freedom of movement/labor". I've only sent cv's to headhunters/recruiters so far...

ecureilx: I'm thinking of trying it. I have a friend in Taiwan who wants me to come, but confesses the job market is not as good there. Coming to Singapore interests me much more, but the issue is that I have to put a lot of money out up front for room and board. If I fail, I can't come back to Swi...

So what do you guys think the odds are I find a job in 3-4 months if I just come there, find a cheap accommodation...etc? I know you haven't seen my resume, but...since I am more support than hard core tech skills...and I'm facing Indian competition, Chinese competition... You are visible non-white...

Re: way too eager...

As long as you don't do any crime or violate the laws of SG, then you can change jobs as many times as you like. Every job change is of course subject to Employment Pass approval by MOM. If you have already done your medical check and fingerprinting in the last 6 months or so, then once your EP is ...

Re: way too eager...

Hi, I recently arrived from London to work for a marketing agency. At the time I was really determined to come to Singapore and a company offered me a good role at S$4k a month. At the time I thought this was ok and i'd read on a couple of sites that it should be enough. I'm 25 so at my age I wasn'...
