- Typical government sponsored program where technical training is provided but practical experience to apply this knowledge on the job is limited so can't really see how useful it is gonna be. Also need to consider whether UOB is actually going to absorb all the candidates after the government funding ends.
- Would be a total waste of time for people with strong technical backgrounds so do take your applications seriously while you can |
Can confirm on first point.
My first 3 months i did nothing, actually my friend applied for a batch earlier than me and told me he did nothing also so i decided to apply while i still had my job lol
i basically removed my current job from my resume and pretended to be a fresh-grad who couldnt find job in 6+ months.
now im holding both jobs and it's pretty fking funny,
UOB paying me 4.5k monthly while im doing nothing and im earning 6.2k from my other job.
basically 10k+ monthly... with less than 1 YOE. i think online they call it "overemployed" or something lol my contract also never say its illegal, they only said cannot work for competing company,
UOB is a bank and my other company is a AI company, both non-competing.
