Masters in Futility?

Better to ask someone else, then if you do act, and based upon that advice you fail, there is someone else to blame.

How can you have a 'Masters' and yet be so utterly clueless?

that is a little harsh.. but true.

I came to the conclusion that he is translating directly from Mandarin to English.

Masters in Mandarin is Lao Pan or Lao Tze which mean senior or teacher or the learned one.

So..... basically what he is saying is Hello Masters albeit Seniors . I need advise on how to acquire job in SG. I have done my Masters at Taylors College. I maybe wrong here but this is my thoughts

Hi Aargon,
I did not intend it to be harsher than fair, I was truly surprised at the question.

I would have expected a person with a Masters to be beyond averagely intelligent. I would have expected them to researched (here and elsewhere) and explored the issue of visas. I would have expected them have explored using jobhunt websites, recruiters and classified listings. I would have expected them to have discussed it with their tutor at their college in KL. In other words I would have expected them to have used some initiative, formed an answer to their own question and presented it here for comment/suggestions.

But what do we get instead 'I have Masters, how do I search/get a job in SG?'. The OP didn't even state what field they studied or intend to work in.

Hope my surprise is a little clearer now.

Yeah. Unless someone is directed at a career in the field of study I agree. It is often merely a delaying tactic to keep the scary reality of the real world at bay.

Mad Scientist sounds like someone with a masters degree

Hehe, don't see the evidence coming together there... reckon he's gonna come and give you a kick for that!
