Is the job market that good? He is able to hop quite a few places in a short period of time
|
To those who love to bash and look down on SIM grads, do you really think you're damn successful ? You're probably just finding comfort, hiding behind your keyboard, bashing SIM grads. What a fool seriously.

Some ppl go EM1, others go EM3. Some ppl go Special stream, others go Normal Acad. Some ppl go JC, others go poly. Some ppl go NUS, others go SIM. Different strokes for different folks. Everyone has a role to play! :) |

mostly local banks will hire freshie and be prepared to work hard to survive the probation period and work harder to raise through the ranks. u can start off as a pb then move on to foreign banks to service offshore or higher networth clients. in the end its all about connections and networking between your peers and bosses. im a freshie from UCD , Uni college Dublin . in business banking . my annual salary package now is only 55k... |
Quote:
Mind sharing which bank it is? Is the 55k straight out of graduation? Are your peers getting that amount too? How is the salary progression like? |
UOL enf FCH of class 2013/2014 here.
Working in a small PB in SG but unfortunately my function is not as glamorous as some of the FO / AM folks here who r taking home lotsa dough every month. Not in ops, investment research, mkts bla bla. My basic is about SGD55K++, all in would be around SGD 67K++ per annum. Yet, still can't afford a car, taking mrt everyday and eating cai png / hokkien mee / chicken rice |

Prior to my graduation i took up a contract role doing ops with another bank altho it is pretty much unrelated to the job im doing now. I was doing PT studies in my final yr since i needed money to pay for sch fees.. |

Good thing is that i am not in a client facing role, so not much travels expected. Though, the downside would be squeezing in that sardine-packed train during peak hours... Anyway, good to see many UOL grads here doing well (probably some of them r trolls but w/e) |

even if you list yourself as LSE, which is frankly, an extremely prestigious university in London, they know you are lying by looking at your CV. conclusion - private uni grads will never be called up for a grad role - even for back office grad programmes. |
friends, pls stop saying you are from LSE when you have a degree from SIM/UOL or whatever not.
LSE is a school under UOL, as are Imperial and Kings. Degrees are conferred by the school, unlike our NUS where everyone has a NUS degree. UOL has a distant learning programme, which is completely different from LSE. So stop saying you went to LSE if you did a local distant learning programme. |

I'm not from SIM nor do i know anyone from SIM. Truth be told, I wasn't even aware it is considered a university in Singapore.
However, i notice many forummers here have a tendency to mock SIM grads, not just on this thread but on several others as well. Why is that so? Do SIM grads really suck and are yet full of themselves? Even if their private degree is not deemed to be of equal value as degrees from NUS or NTU, are SIM grads not generally considered to hold higher qualifications than diploma holders? I would think there are many "lesser mortals" in terms of academic qualifications. If so, why are SIM grads the target of such mockery and disdain? Just curious, cuz i know nothing about SIM. |

Some of the mockery is honestly derived from SIM students themselves who make weird claims like the one above about being from LSE and also that we are somehow 'street-smart' and other university grads are not. These claims do gain a considerable amount of mockery. IMO, dont take what anyone says online seriously. Its best to just take care of yourself and let your performance at work speak for your abilities. |
True blue sim uol grad here. bnf 2nd upper graduated in 2013. below is my short career statistics.

degree wise - SIM's courses are no way comparable to the local standards - there is a reason why NUS/SMU/NTU are 4 year full time courses. coupled with the fact that grades are normalized in local universities. the crap about being streetsmart etc, is 100% ********. try telling a NUS grad who got into InvBanking earning 10k a month as his first pay, driving a BMW after 2-3 years that he is not streetsmart. likewise, claims about SIM grads making into graduate programmes are just laughable. |
Private Equity. UOL E&F degree 2:1. 3.3k

To continue from above, for SIM-UOL grads or SIM in general, you need to go out and network. Talk to people. Get involved in your future career.
If you want to be B, research it. Join competitions. Getting a good job is not easy especially being from SIM-GE when you have local U competing for the same pool of jobs. True, but if you give up - that's that. Network. Be Likeable. Know people. Know jobs before they are even posted. Get internships (I am glad I did. It led to a better internship and another better one) - till I landed a full time offer. Life is not defined by your paycheck, but whether you are willing to fight for the future you want - be it failure or success. Keep trying (smartly). -ZP |
anyone has a rough gauge for the starting salary of a fresh grad in the accounting field? Expecting a 2nd upper degree if all goes well. UOL-SIM A&F student here.
