I am getting 3.2. Graduated with good honors. Don't think the effect of the pay hike from public sector hit us yet.

Recently got offered a 118K per annum package.. have about total of 4.5 years experience. Is this roughly the upper end for a technical role in the IT role? I'm wondering how much higher I would be able to go in the future if I do not progress into management..

Hi all, I'm currently serving NS and planning to study Mechanical/Chemical engineering at a local Uni. I didn't know that the engineering sector in Singapore was this bleak until I read this thread.

After reading much online about engineering in Singapore, I still feel that a personal experience is what I need to determine for myself if engineering is for me. I would really appreciate if anyone knows where I can find job shadowing/ internship opportunities for ME&CHE!!

Please advise me on which field of engineering is better (ME/CHE)! Thank you in advance!
