i don't think it matters if the interviewer asks if you have a car or not. Car ownership dosen't mean anything in SG. Having a license is a good thing but you don't have to own a car.Originally posted by mastdfj:actually i think in s'pore dun need to buy lar.. very ex..
but hor, if u doing sales job always need to travel den may be good to buy lar
esp nowadays the employer always expect people to have own transport
den if u r diploma or degree holder, go interview,
they'll ask u got licence? considering buying car?
wonder if u say "dun want to buy" whether they'll still hire u
think kia car cheaper...
of course for most of the jobs it doesn't matter and the interviewer won't even ask u this qn.Originally posted by nullifi3d:i don't think it matters if the interviewer asks if you have a car or not.

You may say you "don't want to buy" a car but if you back it up with a witty remark like "i have one less financial burden" then as an interviewer i will be more than impressed.
that's wat i thot so... of cos i'd love to get a car...Originally posted by UandMe:of course for most of the jobs it doesn't matter and the interviewer won't even ask u this qn.
this qn will only be asked if u're applying for outdoor sales or positions which u must travel frequently and at short notices. It definitely matters in this field and gives u greater chances than candidates without a car.
go get motor license then its cheaper n dun hv to wait for 'world class' public transport...Originally posted by FiRe_BLaDe:thx for the advices..
well, not working in sales..although transportation is convient but at times it really take so long to wait for a public transport.juz thinking that its like a convient to owe it and maybe faster to get to a place in term of no jam.
hmm..but i guess renting is much more higher then owning 1 rite?dont realli noe my budget yet as i dont think i haf much savings.heard from ppl about the insurance is higher for first timer to owe a car or sth..was maybe seeing how much average a person need to owe a normal car and maybe i guess i need to work out and see if i can achieve it.
erm... don't get if you are regular spec with 2K pay hor, it's not that cheap.Originally posted by FiRe_BLaDe:hiaz...not too sure whats to get and seems like alot of factor to think.

thinking of getting car but i always heard ppl sas maintaning a car is diff.thinking of maybe getting a 1.6 and below car..dont seems to trust brands like kia or hyundai.however dont really noe whats good.wanted a saloon look car but ltr maybe thinking of hatchback cars.
as the price dont seems too high.is there any car that haf equal FC and power?i guess FC of a car should be a impt factor rite?so how do you judge it has a gd FC or not?
another thing is i heard that the insurance is highest for honda brand?normally,whats in the cost of the car?COE and the car cost and any other costs are inclusive in it?
so hows does this OMV and breakeven pt means?to what i noe is a BEP of a car is normally 5 yrs?does it means that u need to finish the loan of ur car b4 u and sell or scrap?then will we get back anything in terms like if i would like to change to another car will there be any $ that i can take from the first car and dump it as a downpayment.
btw,do u think weekend car more affordable?
