I myself prefer job related to compliance or due diligence. However, there hardly organisation trusting an candidate without relevant experience. If I am the recruiter, I would think likewise. So I hardly blame them.

End up, as time goes by, I tend to apply jobs that I have weak interest and passion in. But the organisations are not stupid either. For example, you applied for few positions in DBS or Singtel a month. Hey. They would know you do not like the job you applied at all.

So I feel trapped and depressed. With savings depleting, my family over-reliance on me. My qualifications (just 3rd class hons) and experience lose out to other better candidates. Sending out many resumes daily also seem fruitless.

If possible, I would prefer not to earn the GST voucher.
