I am studying EEE(Infocomm), and I am planning to go to telecomms/IT industry, but I heard that it's very hard to get a position nowadays.

Applied for DSTA and some other small companies that need web design, currently no reply yet. Apparently the telcos are not looking for engineers yet(I think they outsource to other countries, eg Starhub outsources to Huawei, i know cos worked in starhub b4 as an intern.
I think the telcos only hire experienced, not entry grad.

I would like to know the prospects for this industry. What kind of companies from this industry can I choose from the public and the private sector?
