Bad advice. If you make yourself look so desperate and cheap, you will forever be cheap.

It's better to overestimate your capability than hugely underestimate it. Excess humility is extremely detrimental in this day and age.

hello

I'm an licensed architect with 16 years of US experience looking to move to Singapore for work. My work experience include workplace interiors, architectural projects of large complex scale of various building types - civic, institutional, commercial, residential as well as large scale master plan works in China. I'm also NCARB and LEED certified.

Any idea what the pay scale for someone of such experience is ?
Any idea which firms are the better pay master ? Local architectural firms or MNCs?

Any info/ advise is much appreciated.

Licensed in US dones't mean you'll be automatically licensed in Singapore correct? Don't bother with architectural firms. Try developers. They pay much better, provide greater exposure and certainly provides you with better control over your private life.
