Hi,
it is not my intention to hurt anybody. but, i saw
many people coming with great hope and gone empty
scenario here. i am not saying that it is very hard to
find a job in Singapore. however, one should plan and
act correctly to find a job. simply coming to
Singapore, stay here for 15-20 days and find a
job…it is not practical. if i am not mistaken, it is
totally a wrong perception to say that there are
plenty openings here and just a pop-in can find a job.
People at home are amazed with their friends earnings
in Singapore. they become hasty to find a job in
singapore. they spend their vluable time and money and
finally go home empty handed. this is happening in
many cases. very few may succeed but it is not
fruitful for many of them.
path, look for a good consultant in India or
Singapore, interact with your friends, try to apply on
line, attend telephone interviews, wait for the
opportunity and get the offer/EP in hand. then the
whole world is yours!
Good luck guys,
