lock and ban lah..

in a spore realistic society, degree is the minimum, but it doesnt guarantee any future successes. after obtaining a degree, it still depends on yourself, to work hard and smart too. there are still many poor graduates out there.
-
what about diplomas? do they still guarantee usefulness in todays society?
-
diploma grad find jobs easier than graduates, cos of disparate of pay. DBS likes to employ poly grad to be its bank officers.
-
I find one friend who I find a bit funny. althou he is a grad, he didnt put his degree in his resume and say he is a diploma grad from poly. of course his pay isnt as high as the pay of grad when he was selected.
-
so do they (diploma holders) have the chance to hold high-paying jobs with terms and conditions applies (such as working hard for a promotion etc
-
yes. alot of diploma grad are managers at MNCs and banks these days. besides paper qualifications, hard work and experiences and also leadership skills are considerations to consider as well.
-
but then my friend say if working at bank u must atleast have a degree is that true? i find that advantages are many for diploma holders though
-

I know of one SME co dealing with mobile and hp sets. he was educated till primary 3 and he was their AGM. he drove a second hand merc to work everyday.
but this co employ mostly malaysians, as singaporeans tend to shun working at SME. even the wife of the boss is a malaysian, as is her sister. 80% of malaysians made up the staff strength of this co.

Why will you fire someone who has a higher lvl of skills (technically speaking) but whom you could give lower pay?
