what you all think about scholarships?

That just shows that ur company only focus on paper results and not stuff like leadership & interpersonal skills from CCA, etc.Originally posted by darknessfall:farmers becoming general???
Halooooww....we are in the context of singapore..not china or viet k... and in this new age generation, no paper qualifications means no general for you! omg..wat are you thinking about?
Anyway, thats beside the point. Damn...i just went thru one round of screening in my company..first damn thing they ask, which class of honours are you? Then, see my resume...oh..from NUS. Best thing " I dun see that you are getting alot of As in your subjects"
What the fish....what has my grades to do with my work? Do they mean that just because they are some scholars from elsewhere, they expect everyone to be the same as them? I hate the system in Singapore, but what can we do? Even the PAPs are scholars...
You cant go and complain to them about scholars! hahaha 
When I say farmers, I mean non-scholars with at least a degree... in SAF there are many types of scholars... OMS all the way to local study awards... and those without awards... in conclusion... graduates still have a decent opportunity to get a star... -
off-topic.....ani one of u here ever thought of being a quiter......

I dun even consider it- I'm already becoming one. I'm not working in S'pore period- I'd work overseas once I finish my overseas uni studies.
I won't mind starting at the bottom either- as it's obvious there's only one way when ur at the bottom- up. And getting up the ladder is very motivating! -
hearing it and doing it is different. how would u rate working in s'pore if u hv not even started?Originally posted by timothytsgsg:I dun even consider it- I'm already becoming one. I'm not working in S'pore period- I'd work overseas once I finish my overseas uni studies.

getting up the ladder isn't everything.... -
No. But I've friends who have started working and they said working in s'pore is nothing but depressing.Originally posted by hmsg:hearing it and doing it is different. how would u rate working in s'pore if u hv not even started?

I'd rather work overseas as the emphasis on the approach of work itself is much much more different as compared to S'pore. What I prefer is that I want challenges when I work, something that I love doing- not a yes-man job, agreeing to whatever suggestion, good or bad, that the boss has had made.
