I am not sure what to do already...Been applying close to 200 jobs close to a year and amending my resume (according to the JD esp if I really want the job) if not I will just spam my resume for decent jobs on Jobstreet. Tried being open-minded by applying through recruitment firms, which I received 8 agents who offered basic contract jobs and super low pay. I initially thoughtEven worst was that they all called me frequently while I was overseas...phone bill sibei jialat. Once i reach Sg, no follow-ups from them. A big disappointment and let-down.

I also applied directly to companies that I really want to work with and Careers@Gov (which i feel have no hope at all cause I don't have stellar grades)

BTW, I'm the NUS chemistry graduate whos currently doing internship. And it is ending soon, getting anxious and scared. Time is flying by so quickly but I have not received a single job offer yet.

If there are others out there like me, jia you and I hope we will meet miracles soon in the future.
No problem with your salary. Problem is the field. Many of my friends with bio and Chem background also ended up doing all sorts of work.

NUS even no honours also ranked higher than private degree. Go ahead and apply on career future and career gov.

Really jobless eventually then drive private hire, sell insurance, sell property lor. Willing to move arms and legs won't starve one. All those certs is chicken feed for a young graduate with strong ability to memorize.

However, do take note that gahmen don't recognize any job experience that's not full time or without cpf. Assuming you still keep your options open to both Pte and gahmen.
