First, I am not a guy. You can tell from my username.
Second, I am not as ambitious as most of you are. All I want is job security and to lead a comfortable life, and perhaps start a family in the not too distant future.
Third, it is clear that we obviously have different priorities in life and I do hope that you respect that.

Hey all,

is 4K PM too much to ask for? I am applying for operation manager at one of the gov hospitals.

My qualifcations : MBA
Experience 6 years exclu NS

I am a civil engineer worked for last 11 years with private sector and getting $6500 per month. I have a NUS master degree too.

I intend to join public sector (LTA, HDB, DSTA, JTC ...etc). What is the reasonable expectation of salary?

Thank you in advance!

seriously don't understand why people are asking for only 4k after spending so much time on a masters..

Guy or girl ambition is important when young, sure I respect your view but fresh graduates should not be thinking this way. If the brightest and best think this way how is the economy to progress?

Job security and comfortable life? Sure but not now sista.

Hello guys, I have applied a job with the ministry.
How long do they take to respond usually?

Thanks!

Because of this group of people, I sometime think that we shall not provide equal oppurtunity of education to girl.

such shallow thinking! is it because you r deprived of a chance with standford, or you just cannot get in at all...

Can someone help me instead of unconstructive quarrelling?
Appreciate it.

It's precisely because of people like you that they restrict the female intake in law and medicine. Why waste money subsidising the education of people who stay home and have a comfortable life.
