Why not become an entrepreneur? Be a hawker or a property agent? They can earn big bucks.

entrepreneur is overrated. been a hawker before. Be a licensed hawker need to pay upfront stall fees and ingredients, risk of no customers and bad weather.

being an entrepreneur of most sorts require some form of capital to start with. no doubt can earn big but life is not easy. in fact, most startups fail within 1 year.

property agent is still a great route. but cold calling and getting initial customer base is hard work.

no doubt the above can earn big bucks. but it comes through really hard work. On the other hand, you only need 10% effort in an office environment for the same amount of pay and risk of losing your income.

either you spruce up your resume and cover letter, or get a recruiter to help you in your search. try taking internships or even unpaid labour to gain experience and network with professionals, or do some volunteer work. beats sitting at home doing nothing.

What did you graduate with and what did you study?

Im guessing its science field..

Oh not science. I grad from NUS FASS.

Strange how people seeking job advise post so little details about themselves and then ask for advise, then the people with jobs reply back in so much detail or query them for more information. Every person asking for advise have to wait until someone comes along and ask them for more details before providing.

Its not surprising people asking for advise on the thread have troubles finding a job, seems a constant barrage of spoon feeding going on.

*Advice not advise.

Thanks for the correction, but it doesn't change the point I'm making.

Hmm actually the person is asking if he (a degree holder) should apply for jobs that only need diploma qualifications. I think that is the point of the question.

Hmm..that depends on the person's type of qualification (Major) and direction and market supply of that job.
