Thanks @carpejem . Btw po, if ever po ba na magtry mag-job hunting while andyan na sa SG, is there a higher chance to get hired especially in Finance field?

carpejem

@seni yung gagawin mong online dyan ay gagawin mo din dito, ang bentahe lang madali mong mapuntahan kung mag urgent interview. kahit nandyan ka naman sa pinas pwede kang mag pa schedule.

seni

Thanks for the insight @carpejem, will take this into consideration. Thank you.

@seni pag acctg, laging urgent position dhl di pwede mabakante. same field tayo, natry ko na magapply habang nasa pinas pa, pero pag nalaman nila nasa pinas pa, di na itutuloy interview. at nung andito nako sg, ang laging tanong during interview, makakapagstart kba asap? case to case siguro, pero mostly tlg urgent.

Hi @maya, I'm a CPA po w/more than 8yrs exp handling full set of accounts: 5 years exp sa pinas in real estate (as acct sup) and 3 yrs exp in construction in middle east (as accountant). Currently, still here in qatar, planning to relocate in SG kasi mas malapit sa pinas and change of environment. With my exp, what do you think are my chances in landing a job if i plan to find work directly dyan sa SG? Nag-start na kasi ako mag-pass ng cvs thru jobstreet for the past weeks pero wala pa akong positive feedback. Thanks2.

Hi @seni you can try to pass your resume as early as now para malaman mo kung gaano bebenta yung experience mo sa mga papasahan mo. The number of respondents (employer) will answer your question. Nasa accounting field din ako, ang masasabi ko lang is dapat mahaba pasensya mo sa workload dito especially sa accounts.

seni

Thanks @Teddy, will keep it in mind. Btw, what's your job hunting experience there? We're you hired directly from PH or tried your luck while already in SG? Your feedback will help alot. Thanks.
