What front office banking role? That is so broad.

You are from SIM INC right, go to LinkedIn and see how many people before you in the club made it to good front office roles.

Be realistic and look beyond joining banks. And to job hunt for front office roles during a market downturn... all the best to you.

If anything, you are a disgrace to your parents and should be ashamed to face your ancestors for going SIM.

Used to respect this dude but now seeing how immature and childish he is by praising himself, nah that's a typically SIM loser haha.

Now is a pretty bad time to job hunt for fresh grads. No one willing to hire, mass pool of people applying after their SG traineeship ends. GGWP.

honestly, this guy is just tryna spread FUD lmao. Not sure what job market you are referring to when you say no one willing to hire, its a massive boom for now. You are perhaps looking in the wrong industry. Received 3 offers before i even graduated. (For context, local uni - landed offers in tech)

i can kinda see what that dude is saying. he's probably looking at very traditional sectors like banking or consulting where hc have been trimmed for 2022 due to over-hiring in 2021. of course sectors like tech, which is booming, graduate will never have any problems finding jobs.

Next step: Join insurance. Suddenly all these dumb idiots become financial experts/gurus. Cant even solve basic math/codes and now can talk about compound interest and different risks formulas and theories... no thank you. Project meeting 11am all can late by hours, but insurance accountability check at 8am in office all can suddenly do it. ./.

Why insurance? cos these ppl are just lazy to work hard in corporate world earning <3.2k or even lower after getting free sponsored by daddy/mummy. Insurance entry level low and if thick skin u can 'make' a lot. So majority join. Don't even get me started on NUS kids in AAG, might as well give me the slot in NUS.

My parents did not pay a single cent for my uni at all. I think my dad is some govt sector AC or DC rank and my mum is a senior manager in DBS. Both told me young that time they settled their uni loans themselves, so now want me to go through the 'suffering' ok lor i sucked thumb. So during uni i worked part time (waiter, tuition, safe-entry, which was the best cos I can sit down zuo bo at ulu area like NLB carpark and study), was juggling between work and school. I made quite a bit, able to settle around 35% of my sch fees. So upon my graduation my parents paid the remaining, saying they just want me to know ' money hard to earn ' yay lol i also got sponsored la but different situations as those idiots.

Now I working liao, take home 3.4k as a software developer. is low but 3.4k I happy liao. 1yr in liao and my performance quite good (i worked 3x as hard as those fresh grads from NUS/NTU), so pay raise incoming by end June. I heard raise to 4k+. yay.

U think all those siao lang lazy idiots will be grinding as hard as me just to get that 'meagre' salary increment? all rather go insurance and grind to get their MDRT ****, and their grind = dm ppl instagram/linkedin or post cringeworthy financial stuff on instagram/facebook.

;'D

i am not OP but this post needs to be bumped more!

respect!

Imma just say that its while his story is pretty inspiring, all the other numerous comments saying respect and **** is dumb. Like seriously,its prolly him just quoting himself trying to angkat himself. Dont see how there are so many random people saying respect and ****
