It's about the probability and there's a higher probability that you will be successful if you attend a local uni. The reality of the job market is that private unis are viewed below local unis.
dont know why r u guys bashing each other hahahaha. I grad from SIM few years ago, met many local u grads colleagues and I get along with them fine. They asked where I am from and I'll just tell them honestly.

I work in a bank MO (not trade support or etc) and I have local grads reporting to me within my team whereas i report to the HOD who is a foreigner. I've co-interviewed and made recommendations to hire local grads over pte uni grads because most of them i met conduct themselves really well during interviews, though we've once hired a local grad who is a complete nutcase.
Even though i don't make as much as some of the big boys here claiming to be racking in millions yearly, but not too shabby overall i guess considering my age.

Does that make me very successful ? I don't really think so, still can't afford a brand new Audi R8 or bmw m7 leh. I'm just like any ordinary office worker you'll see in MRT every morning.
