Looking for job in Sg
-
Hello to those who sincerely lend a listening ear and give feekback........
Rather frustrated now, partially due to economy downfall which is affecting the whole world and Sg as well.
For example, I had a malaysian friend who had completed his education (malaysian degree) there, and sincerely wanna come Sg to work cos of better prospect but MORE importantly he had to get more money to support his younger siblings who are all studying so as to lighten his parent workload.
In order to help him, i had been sourcing ard for him as well for the past 2 mnths ......... but all to no avail. All companies now only looking for S'porean and PR, and those with experiences....... So, does that really mean that a malaysian with no experience is not possible to find a single job in this Sg now? He desperately need a job here .......
Yes yes, I myself know the market situation in Sg now, so I can't be grumbling much but its just a kind of way i vent my frustration. The feeling of wanna help but can't, and feeling so helpless is awful, 1st time in my life i ever realise. I know, there are so many pple, and s'porean are jobless outside now, and things like that etc etc. So its natural for company to employ locals. Nothing wrong abt this of cos but then, if all companies stay think this way, think my friend can ever forget abt coming........
Think my friend is gonna to suffer for a much longer time. Think chances are bigger when economy start picking up.
Sign~ so helpless.

Companies are supposed to react this way,do you then expect otherwise?
This has little to do with "favouring" the locals,but if even qualified singaporeans with degrees could not bag jobs,what of a malaysian with a malaysian degree?
Why does your friend not seek employment from those Malaysian firms?After all they are not concerned whether your credentials make the mark.They are only concerned whether you are malay.Malays only employ malays.Nuff said.

Because anyone hides pain in the depths of their hearts.Or so I knew.
If there's a reason to fight in this time, this place,
Then I can fly, without being afraid of being lost.
I unsheath only my rage.
Live now, in everything -
Sob Sob... me also cannot find a job... times now are tough... not easy to find one
Hope the economy this year will recover...

"A relationship is like a rose,
How long it lasts, no one knows;
Love can erase an awful past,
Love can be yours, you'll see at last;
To feel that love, it makes you sigh,
To have it leave, you'd rather die;
You hope you've found that special rose,
'Cause you love and care for the one you chose." -
sad to say even singaporeans canx find job
i think govt would cater to singaporeans -
Yup, I understand and agree wif what all the feedback you pple say. Don't deny it.
Anyway, my friend manage to get a job here. At last, one company is willing to employ him, a small company. However, the bad news came again........
His application for work permit is rejected. His company intend to reapply again, claiming that they will get the work permit for sure. Though the company is confident, my friend can't help but feels and get kinda worried.
My qns is, does anyone have experience or come across this situation? I heard that Malaysian with a degree is not hard to get a permit but how come he can't get one. I mean, will there be any chances that he WILL NOT get the permit? If so, on what ground?
Thanks & regards

Hannor!!! Ober in my companies... alot of m'sian coolies also... all habe work permit... they dun own a degree or what.... what do tt mean
-
Maybe there is a quota on the number of permits a day. Maybe cause he doesn't have a lot of money, maybe cause his grades were not tt fantastic? Maybe some distant relative of his commit some crime and get black listed.. tons of reasons.. but well strange

Yo thanks a lot
yah, my friend will keep reapply until he gets it (or should i say as long as the company wants him). His company seems very optimisstic abt it, just that he can't helps but worry.
Also, the trouble is he have to go for a 'chop' at his passport every 14 days. Kinda troublesome but guess no choice lor.
Btw, u r not from Sg? I mean since yr dad is holding a WP here, i presume u r not in Sg also lor or r u studying here?
