You are trying your luck hopefully to obtain a recognised higher education certificate and then using it to land on a comfortable stable job. If this do not work, you go look for other educational certificates to try your luck again. You are already 31 years old. By the time you realise this and realise that, you will be in your late thirties. Are you hoping to go into teaching as your career ? If not, seriously, you better stop living in your world.
Not to pour cold water on you but there is no need to be so happy over a temp job. Companies are more strict on permanent position applications.

cousin is 25 i think. he is doing his bachelors in
ntu after his a levels. i did my bachelors online i dont even have a levels. he got offered to do a
ntu phd. i got an offer to do a phd in a top 50 uni as well and was shortlisted by a local uni for an interview as well (when they interview you for a phd, they already accept that you are qualified, the supervisors just want to keng gai with you see if you can get along with their team, talk about research topics, interests, your chance of getting it is about 50%).
i am still waiting for results for other phd/masters applications.
ya isn't the point of studying to prove oneself and to attract employers? if i study further, i hope to bury my online degree, i think i can get entry level jobs in sg and get some of them to bite. hopefully the qualfication can help in faster promotions as well.
well if not, then i will just stay put and work in msia or whereever then, bo bian loh.
