Please learn to respect other even though others do not show you respect in the first place. The older generation, or the Ah-Peks in your eyes, who would likely be your hiring managers or seniors in the future still value some respect.
Doing an overseas exchange, a NTU B. Eng (EEE) could help in kick starting your career, but giving respect aids you to your career apex.
Hopefully you can still write in to IBM to secure a internship.

Hi uncle, thank you for your advice.

rubberbus, where are you going? It would actually be best if you are able to secure an overseas internship as opposed to finding an internship here.
A EEE internship here in sg is worthless. The industry is service driven more than product engineering driven. Hence, there are very few capable EEE engineers around. Companies here treat interns as cheap labour and not as future engineers. So there is very little value added.

I'm going glasgow, scotland. Yeah I know but There will be a lot of issue if I do issue in oversea such as visa, housing and I might not return on time for the start of new semester. That's why i have to do it in Singapore. Yeah i know right, Singapore need engineer yet we are treated like some worthless ****; being disrespected. *shake head

Eh keyboard warrior, you can assume whatever you want. But let me provide you the fact so that you can stop assuming. The fact is the school didn't manage to get enough attachment placing for the students this time round. Due to my exchange program, I need to do it this holiday and since its a last minute issue I won't be in the school database for an attachment placing. I need to outsource myself but i hardly can name any engineering companies. That's why im looking for help here.
Next, I have no idea what I said previously would makes you think that no one want to hire me. I'm just protecting myself, keeping my stand from negative comments made on me. Even it's you, I believe you don't like it too.
Why am I bothering to explain myself here. Well, I got too much time to spare. Bye

Why did you make such a statement saying Univeristy students are not taking their attachment seriously, maybe your interviewing skills need to improve, choosing and hiring the wrong candidates. Please don't categorise the black sheep with the elites or serious students together. My English may not be perfect but I think you should be smart enough to get what I mean. IM NOT HAPPY WITH YOUR STUPID COMMENTS!!
