But Phd gives u an edge to adapt quickly. Ur Phd will help bcus it taught u one skill most people dont have ----i.e., How to SEEK KNOWLEDGE
U shd realize that as PHD , u know one topic but not others. If its not relevant to your new job, many MS and undergrads will know better than you. But people hire Phd hoping that you can learn fast. So, if you are new to the area, it may take time but you will have to cope up.
MSc research is not so important. But still MSc is more of a specialization than BSc.

Thanks for your reply that I found out very useful.
Are typical MNC in Singapore fair in allocating the position with experience, or do they try to rip off people, i.e. try to put someone in the junior position if he/she may be qualified for the senior one?
