Just to clarify, perhaps I wasn't obvious enough, I did not apply for middle/top management jobs, I am looking to get on the ladder (possibly as a management trainee. associate, etc) and become a mid level manager in possibly 3-5 years' time. Most of the jobs I applied for were pretty junior jobs.
Are you living in some sort of lala land? Management Associate programs in big MNCs are not short of top academic & all rounder high achievers as applicants. You think they give a shiit about your PSLE/O Level or what cert you got from a private university?

Even top programs offered by bb banks & big oil cannot promise to make these high potential people mid level managers in 3 years and you a 30 year old inexperienced guy with a private cert living on past glory of your PSLE & O Level scores expect them to make you a mid level manager there?
