Check your eligibility to work in Singapore

Before getting into an exhaustive job search, it’s a good idea to make sure you’re eligible to work in Singapore. There’re a few different kinds of permits based on your qualifications. The Ministry of Manpower in Singapore has published an online self assessment tool, SmArT, to gauge your likelihood of eligibility.

Choose a thriving industry

While Singapore is host to many markets, some industries are stronger than others. Historically, Singapore has been a welcoming home to finance professionals, especially those in audit and securities. While the financial job market is as strong as ever, new industries are rising quickly in the Southern Asian city. Jobs for IT workers, digital marketers and compliance specialists are surging. Demand in the fields of tech and ecommerce is also high with a huge push in hiring UI and UX designers, as well as hospitality, service, tourism and computer science. Other prevalent roles in Singapore include talent management and HR leadership.

Search Online

One of the best places to look for open positions in Singapore is online. With a multitude of web resources available to aid in your search, the following sites are some of the biggest and most used by Singapore job searchers.

Best Jobs encompasses a huge archive of job posts from many industries
Monster contains listings across every market in Singapore
Jobs.com.sg uses a single search to help finding listings on multiple sites
eFinancialCareers has job openings in Singapore’s biggest market - finance
Jobs Central includes a huge number of listings in a lot of industries
Job Street where you can create a personal profile and host your CV so employers can find you.

While it’s important to do your own research and choose the agency that’s the best fit for your industry and skills, the following have been well reviewed as trusted agencies in the city:

3C Synergy for jobs in construction, oil and gas
Aegis for jobs across industries
Career Hub Consultants for jobs in finance, tech, engineering, science and hospitality, among others
Spencer Stuart places candidates in jobs across a range of industries.

Apply for your work visa

Getting a job offer is a huge accomplishment, but doesn’t represent the final step in the hiring process. Next, you’ll need to apply for a Singapore work visa.

In order to obtain one, you’ll need a job offer, to pay a registration fee and to submit your application. You can apply for your visa online and have it processed in just 7 days.

Before you apply, it’s important to know what type of visa you’re eligible for. The common visa types are as follows:

Employment Pass for professionals earning at least 3300 Singapore Dollar (SGD)
EntrePass for entrepreneurs looking to start their business in Singapore
Personalized Employment Pass only given to high earners already holding an employment pass, but offering huge flexibility in employment terms and eligible industries
S Pass the most common visa type for typical foreign workers, provided to mid-tier professionals earning at least 2200 SGD per month, and who have passed the requisite assessment

Good luck!

Spain now has more than 47,000 confirmed cases of Covid-19
Spain’s death toll from the coronavirus has surpassed the official figure from China, becoming the second highest in the world.

The number of deaths rose by 738 in 24 hours - a daily record - to 3,434, higher than the 683 announced in Italy.

By comparison, China has officially reported 3,285 deaths, while Italy – the worst affected country – has 6,820.

Spain's rate of infection has increased by a fifth and almost 27,000 people are being treated in hospital.

Madrid is the country's worst affected region but Catalonia in the north-east has seen a rapid increase in cases.

Spain's Deputy Prime Minister Carmen Calvo has tested positive for the virus, the government says. She was admitted to hospital on Sunday with respiratory symptoms.

MPs are to vote on extending the country’s state of emergency for another two weeks until 11 April. Under the rules, people are banned from leaving home except for buying essential supplies and medicines, or for work.

Globally there are 460,000 cases of the virus, with more than 20,000 deaths and more than 110,000 people having recovered, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.

On Wednesday the UN said the virus was "threatening the whole of humanity" as it launched a $2bn (£1.7bn) appeal for the world's poorest people.

"Global action and solidarity are crucial. Individual country responses are not going to be enough," UN Secretary-General António Guterres said.

What’s the latest from Spain?
Figures released by the health ministry on Wednesday showed that in just 24 hours, Spain’s national death toll rose by 738. Its number of cases soared by 7,973.

These are the highest figures for Spain in a single day. The country now has 47,610 confirmed cases.

Catalonia accounts for close to 10,000 of those, while the Basque Country and Andalusia both have more than 3,000 cases. But the worst-affected region is the area around the capital Madrid, which has recorded 14,597 cases.

Health / Re: We Will Not Shut Down Churches Because Of Coronavirus - PFN Chairman by topsam1(m): 9:35pm On Mar 19, 2020
Hahaha, see wetin tithing don cause now...
winningwinner:
Joshua Opayinka, chairman of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) in one of the Western States of Nigeria has declared that churches would not stop holding services because of the Coronavirus pandemic.

He said the pandemic was an evil spirit floating around the world and would find it impossible to enter the church.

Opayinka, who spoke to the BBN Yoruba, said only the power of prayers could stop the virus from spreading.

“They cannot tell us to close worship centres because of coronavirus; cutting the head off is not the solution to a headache,” he said, stressing that God was aware of the pandemic sweeping through the world and only had the solution.

The cleric urged Christians to intensify prayers to God to bring an end to the pandemic, adding that God killed Ebola and the congregation should call Him again to kill coronavirus.

Opayinka said: “The evil spirit that travels around the world is what is called Coronavirus, anybody who brings this spirit to the church will not be able to enter the church, the spirit will not enter the church,” he declared.

The cleric said the church would abide by any instruction given by the government over coronavirus but urged it not to shutdown worship centres because only congregational worship would provide solution to the pandemic.

The story is pathetic.

The claim here is that she tested negative to covid-19,hence no clinical need for isolation.so why was she still kept in the abandoned building to the extent that she had to pass on there?

How did you cope with the hotels stuff?
TravelerNerd:
I’ve heard of so many US visa refusal stories but I’ve applied for a US visa twice and was granted twice without any job or spouse, etc., why? How did they know that I’m actually honest?

Before we start. I want to relate the relocation stories to you. Maybe, it can help you... Also, with the information on this platform with other legit sources, I believe you can relocate without an agent.



I’ve heard of so many US visa refusal stories but I’ve applied for a US visa twice and was granted twice without any job or spouse, etc., why? How did they know that I’m actually honest?

They didn’t know. They appraised your situation, your background, etc. and determined — correctly, I gather, that you were not an intending immigrant.

But let’s look at the other part of your question — you’ve heard so many refusal stories. But we know that far more visa applications are approved than rejected. So how is it the prevalence of complaints would have you believe the opposite is true?

Well, the key is in human psychology. Most people who are told they are qualified for something will attribute it to their own merits. (This is like people who have good careers invariably attributing it to native intelligence and hard work. But if they don’t? Well, “that field is all politics” or “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know” or one of the many similar complaints.)

Fundamentally, almost no one complains about having been granted something that they wanted.

Point is until you try it, you can over-exaggerate your failure, rejection, and I am too sure, either won't help you.

If you don’t Attempt you can’t attend.

Just make sure you get all your stuff complete before applying.

I hope this makes sense to you – if you are vying your PR in any country.

Happy Relocation.

Na one parent born all of them? See as dem resemble demself...... quote author=ContractKiller post=87464093]VIDEO SHOWS SMILING MEDICAL WORKERS IN WUHAN TAKING OFF MASKS AS CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK SLOWS

A new video shows medical workers in Wuhan, China, taking off their protective face masks and smiling as the outbreak of the novel coronavirus slows in the city.

The video was posted to Twitter by The Telegraph shows a number of medical workers standing on steps, taking off their masks, smiling and waving. The novel coronavirus originated in Wuhan, but the city has seen a decrease in cases over the past few days.

This video comes just days after the Chinese news agency, Xinhua, reported that the last two of the 16 temporary hospitals in Wuhan shut down due to a decrease in cases. "The final batch of 49 patients walked out of the Wuchang temporary hospital at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday," the news agency wrote.

According to a March 12 report by the World Health Organization (WHO), the Hubei province, where Wuhan is located, has seen only eight new cases in the past 24 hours, compared to a March 1 report which showed 570 confirmed cases in just one day.

According to Xinhua, the temporary hospitals helped at least 13,000 patients recover from the coronavirus. In the Hubei province, over 51,553 of the 67,786 reported cases have recovered from the virus, according to data provided by Johns Hopkins. In the province, 3,062 people have died.

Following the closing of the temporary hospitals, a number of other videos were posted to Twitter, showing medical workers in the region celebrating the decline in cases.

People's Daily, a newspaper in China, posted a video of the patients thanking the medical workers as they were able to leave the hospitals after recovering from the virus.

"Time to say goodbye! All #COVID-19 patients in the Hubei Provincial Hospitals of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine have left the hospital and the wards closed after 45 days of care by the Guangdong medics sent to support #Wuhan," the newspaper wrote on Twitter.

"Medical teams from other provinces bid farewell to the makeshift hospital in #Wuhan where they have worked for over a months," a reporter from Xinhau, Xu Zeyu wrote on his Twitter.

"A nurse of ethnic minority from island province Hainan rejoices and dances as a makeshift hospital in #Wuhan closes. All patients in this hospital are discharged today," Zeyu posted with another video.

"China has passed peak of #COVID-19. All temporary hospitals in #Wuhan closed, life is back on track. Salute to these brave people. Now we're reciprocally sending medical experts, materials & sharing experience to others since you helped us a lot when we suffered then. Thank you!" Twitter user Shin Shiwei wrote.
