Singapore Work Permit
« on: July 10, 2008, 05:08 PM »

Hi great guys,

I am graduate of Business Admin. and so desire to live in Singapore. please I want to find out, how does one get work permit to work & live in singapore when one has never even been there before?

Then, what is the ease of getting job.

I recently stumbled into an org here in Naija that claimed to be arranging people down there, giving them 1 month training and later placing them on job. An applicant is to fully pay 850k before going in batch with d group. please,how true is this?

Rgds,

Slow down man and don't get desperate. Employment in Asian countries is not that easy except you've been working elsewhere as a pro.
Don't pay anybody 850k otherwise the part 2 will be "Unstoppable tears".

All the best.

its not easy securing a job in Singapore for an African,  They are not so used to Africans and the news they hear about us makes them dislike us

and the guy collecting 850k is a scammer,  I've heard up to 5 different people paid the same amount to come hear and after the training, they were unable to secure a job

Asians are still far away from receiving Africans mayne. try somewhere else. Candid advice

Why do you want to work in Singapore?

I know for the Hotel line, it should be easy to work anywhere around the world if you don't think about the money. You try to contact the Hotels through online and see if they can offer you an internship there or not (but for sure the pay is low as it always has been for anyone). I think thats how your friend got a job there? And if I were you, I will never go through any agents. . . . They always will give you crap and some even will cheat you and ripp off your money so its best to do it for yourself.

try checking out this website. http://www.aasingapore.com/attachments/wysiwyg/3730/WorkinginSingapore1.pdf         have not read all but I guess you might be able to find out something.
 
And yeap so true from the previous posts. Not easy. Even my Nigerian friends could not go visit there just because of his passport what more to work there and get a secure job and they put him in jail for a night. So much crap goin on. . . . HMMM. . . Angry

Guess your friend must be lucky I guess?  Undecided
