Just don't put your expectations up on having
Higher salary etc because you know how to do those things
This is for pte. Cos they know not money earning one.

OPS different. They do value that.

I read a lot of young dr posting here really still stuck
In that academic pass exam pad CV talk

In real life pte side these things dont matter as much.
Set your expectations right.

Just saw a 23 year old Myanmese girl for preemployment. She studied Computer Science in Myanmar. Her pay is S$6k in Sg! More than HO pay.

Computer Science really pays well.

I guess op trying to ask what matters in private then? (Other than able to see pt fast and commit more hours and work irregular hours)
Or rephrase, how can I generate more value for a private gp groups?

I think I heard people say that DURING covid too.
Market at a high....lol
Will HDB price drop?
Sg so many immigrants yet unemployment rate still so low
Need major global recession. Maybe for a sg bank to collapse
Then maybe year property will drop.
V hard to drop now cos it will hurt sg economy bad
Traders dont like property stocks in sg cos is not natural supplt
And demand behavior. Sg govt controls it.
Only insiders make money on property counters.

I know local CS pay is high but thought for FT, pay should be lesser. But she is under S Pass not Employment pass though she qualifies for it.
