2. I do not need to be the owner of a company to hire people. Again, you reveal how stupid you are.

3. It is an open secret that good companies only hire graduates with second upper honours from a good university. NUS is ranked about 40 in the world, as a rough guide, people hire universities ranked around there. Who wants to hire dumbdumbs from universities ranked 200 or 400? Foreigners are the exception. Please read more newspaper advertisements. In what way did I suggest I have a top notch degree from a good university? But do I have honours from a good university? Yes I do, as do ALL MY COLLEAGUES. You are childish beyond belief.

4. You know nuts about the market and clearly do not understand the impact of foreign talent because you don't work for anybody, do you? A graduate from Philippines with four years experience, who speaks and writes perfect English will be more than happy with $2500 per month. If you knew this, you wouldn't be sprouting nonsense here.

Anyway, I'm not here to play oneupmanship with people like you who have not even stepped into the workforce, much less work for a big company.

I'm simply providing information because I was once (a fairly long time ago) a jobseeker myself. If you don't want my advice so be it.

I don't have anything to prove to someone who has egg on his face.

...I really have to agree with bobo on his/her insights into this topic. I myself have been working in a MNC for the past 5 years and had NEVER come across any fresh grad hired at a >$3K range. Please take into prespective on the "foriegn talent" flooding into the Singapore workforce, and balance that out with your own expectation.

It's very inspiring to read abt young fresh grads aspiring to top the salary range but what the government did is exactly to counter such aspiration, just in case the "base cost" for companies goes uncontrolled and MNCs / SMEs started to divest in other lower cost countries for cheaper labour. It'll be a real economic disaster if Singapore spins out top fresh grads that demands very high salary but with no job offers....

Always weigh your oppourtunity with the other side of the coin.
