Even if you get accepted by this employer there is still little chance that your employment pass will be approved by MOM. My wife applied there and was accepted 3 times by different employer but her pass application were all rejected. SG is slowly but surely getting rid of foreign talents since their natives has become so jealous of foreigners getting the job that they felt belongs to them.
For example as an SPass holder, your salary must not be less than 2,100Sgd. So what agencies or some employer do is to pad your salary, declaring it as such even if you're just going to get a lot less in reality. Plus they will exaggerate your skills and qualifications so they could justify hiring a foreigner than a local. If you're young, below 30s and your credentials submitted to MOM was exaggerated, the MOM will suspect it and you'll get a rejection.

My advice is if you have disposable money and you really want to work there then take a gamble, hope for the best but also expect the worst.

In my case before, I was interviewed here over the phone and they didn't require me to go there for a personal interview and they processed my pass before I quit my job here and went to work in SG.

Mau jud bossing dako man hinuon ug Quota ang ilang company for foreign workers. Dako man ni ilang company ( Semiconductor) I really hope for the best. Mao nay gi ingon swerte swerte ra jud ang panrabaho sa SG. Salamat sa input.

Singapore firms face tougher rules in hiring foreign professionals


SINGAPORE — Firms looking to hire foreign professionals will soon come under tougher hiring rules, while those prepared to fill their professional, managerial and executive (PME) vacancies with unemployed locals will get financial help to offset their wage cost.

From October 1, firms will have to disclose the salary ranges of their PME jobs when they advertise their vacancies in the government-run national jobs bank. This will ensure that there is transparency and accountability in the hiring process so that locals will not be shortchanged, said Manpower Minister Lim Swee Say on Wednesday.

When these firms subsequently apply for foreigners to fill the vacancies after they cannot find locals, some may be singled out by the Manpower Ministry (MOM) to give information such as whether locals applied for the jobs and how many were interviewed. This will put firms under “greater scrutiny”, Mr Lim said.

But firms will not just face the stick when they try to hire foreign PMEs. Carrots will also be dangled to coax them to give unemployed locals a shot at the jobs.

Those who hire unemployed locals for PME jobs that pay at least $4,000 a month can get wage subsidies of between $400 and $2,800 each month for 12 months, to lower their costs of hiring these workers.

The wage subsidy program will run for two years from October 1.

Besides the wage subsidy, the Singapore Workforce Development Authority is also looking into hiring professional headhunters to help unemployed PMEs find jobs.
