$4k per month finance assistant position (below manager rank) in Jurong, 5 day week, no OT, factory transport aircon coach provided

Sounds quite good leh..

Don't know why, companies always complain that no Singaporeans want to take the jobs or they are too picky, but based on the salaries, benefits given, like so good leh.. I would want to take the job, and I know many of the pple around me would want to take the job, but.. would the company employ us??

Those that the companies want, doesn't want the job, but those that want the job, the companies doesn't want.. Essentially, a mis-match of expectations? Is it fair to just say that Singaporeans are choosy? For every 10 Singaporeans that reject a $4k job, I believe, 1000 Singaporeans wants the job badly..

$4k is so much higher than many engineering/technical jobs requiring a degree!

ok.. OT too much.. but just find it difficult to accept/understand why those pple reject the $4k job..

:offtopic: :offtopic: for the last final time here. Companies facing all these issues are real...the ASME had another meeting with MOM as just reported today..

we want a vibrant and growing economy - there will be areas of work the locals would avoid .... but to my previous case, we were not choosy, we have accounts staff ranging from age 18 to 85 .... for those above 55, we don't cut their pay hor ....[/quote]
I can understand your frustration. Sometimes it is not the issue. It is human behavior. My company facing the same problem as well. Give A, they will asked B. If other company is givng C they will complain why we never provide C benefits and they never compared the other company don't provide A and B!!!! :siam:

I am not too sure how fair is called fair. I understand that lots of Sporean who are staying in Aust (as a PR) who are entitled with full benefits. Included A$5k for newborn, education system etc. Correct me if I am wrong. If we refer to Pei Chun (which indicate 100 Sporean and 14 PRs for balloting in P2C, it took up about 12% for PR) Bear in mind PRs have 1 chance and Sporean have 2 chances. The % reduce to half after 2 chances given to Sporean. Refering to those past year total PSLE pupils. The pupils are 400 plus or 300 plus for 2003-2004. (may check those school PSLE total pupil 6 yrs ago for P1 intake). Refer back to current P1 intake. It reduced to 300 or 210 only. It’s dropped by 20%-25% due to single session. How much does PRs really impact in whole P1 registration actually? Number can tell everything. Just my thought.

I read someone who commented this at ST news. "Got a Seat is fair ,no seat is not fair .that’s simple" .

Some one posted : 12 parents vs 5 seats.

Hi happy2011, Yes. Not sure how many seats left for balloting as I didn’t ask further. You may call the school. I think they are kind to answer your call. They are quite helpful. Good luck…

Ballot will conduct for 1-2km parents.

Hi soursop, u may call the school.

This yr Northland has 54 PVs yet to include RC…

My friend who registered her gal at "hot" school (neighbourhood) at Phase 2C. She mentioned that those >1km were rejected immediately. No chance to register at all.

Any news for children born 2005 PV application?
