I am fresh local poly grad (Just completed NS) in IT engineering.
Currently working as an sales executive in construction line(2 mths), drawing an average local poly grad pay with no commission. Its in those Chinese Pte Ltd companies where not much of a career advancement.

I am actually planning on working for a good 2 years just for some experience and filling up my blank resume as its hard to find job for fresh poly grads. Planning to take up a private PT degree in business and go towards the marketing path.

But currently i have an job offer as an engineer for high pressure pumps.
They are offering 300-400 more than what im taking now and willing to take up fresh grad with no experience. Its for a big MNC in gas/marine industry where there are a lot of travel opportunities which is good for some one inexperience like me i guess. I will be taking up PT mech Degree if im were to continue in this line as i do not have relevant studies in this line too. Just that the downside is i will not be PEB regconise as i wont be able to enter local uni.

I know the main thing is what i really like and into but i do not have any preferences. Willing to go into any line as long as it will benefit in the long run. But reading much in forums, engineers are not doing so well in singapores are most jobs are taken up by foreigners.

Maybe some Lanjiaos can share some views and which route should i take which benefits me int he long run.

Thanks in Advance!
