Good luck. Almost impossible to get a job here without being a singaporean, or PR and without higher education qualifications.

Does anyone have experience talking/applying directly to the local Canadian firms in Singapore? I would assume they would be more willing to hire Canadians, but contact info is rare and i believe they do not even have local HR divisions.
