*** the question i have for all this pte uni ppl who keep saying deg & school not important, companies just want streetsmart, network, value add etc, is why then do u even bother to get a pte uni deg?
if things are really as simple as u all say, just know the right people & work hard, why not u all just stick with ur diploma or
ite cert? afterall base on this kind of logic, nobody care abt ur school & cert few years into the job rite?
someone even gave 4 super generic pts:
1) value add to the organisation
2) bring in sales
3) retain customers
4) Know the right people (Including bosses) - This one
literally throw all u have studied out of the window.
for non-technical jobs, the 4 pts look like even a N level can do it if he wants to, why study for anything beyond then?
because deep in our hearts we all know that statistically speaking the better the cert/school, the better the career prospects. even if we know that sometimes a
psle dropout can do better in life than a phd, we acknowldge these are and will always be exceptions. ***
Somewhat agree with the 2 comments made above. I myself am from RMIT. I believe some jobs really do require a degree. To cut it short, I believe we need to be open-minded. That's the most important thing, respect that each (local and pte) have our strong points.
And throw out the stereotype that local = booksmart and not streetsmart and
pte = streetsmart and not booksmart. there are ppl out there who can be both.
Anw, i would like to post a question actually lol... what is the job function of treasury sales like? when i read the job requirements i feel like giving it a try. Like those kinda fx, money market manager roles.
Thanks in advance! Feel free to give me comments about what i said, I'll gladly engage in a discussion with you!
