Hello Forum,

I am new to this site.

Was planning to come on Visit Pass for month or two, search for job and go further for EP.
wanted to know how would be the job market after September?
When is the best time to find new job?

And with 4+ yrs of exp in IT, how much salary can I expect?

Thanx in advance.

I'd say your odds are not that likely at the moment.

I recently put up a BI Developer job ad on LinkedIn and there was a deluge of applicants (200 relevant applicants, and we're not a "brand name" company/employer). This consisted of both locals and scores of BI Developers/analysts from India.

The one market skill gap I saw based on this recent batch of applicants is that they were heavily weighted towards Microsoft technologies and other bits and pieces you'd use in a Banking environment - rather than technologies like Hadoop which is what we were looking for at the time.

Good luck.

I think I know which company you are referring to. I just looked at your ad:
So you need someone who has:

Work experience:

We will consider only those engineers that have worked in European + Asian modern retail companies

I just fainted reading at that. All those are for a "Senior software Engineer". You are indeed a no brand company. Less than 50 People. Anybody with those sort of skills is not a human being but a super hero. Gosh! I can't believe how crazy the expectations of SMEs in Singapore can get. You will need atleast a team of 5 people to have those skills, in aggregate.

BTW, good luck in finding that super hero in 1 person.

The work experience required is the part that made me really laugh.

If someone is truly an *Expert* in all of those technologies as required, you think they'd be working in food retail?
