Hi everyone
I'd like to get your opinion on what are my chances of getting a PR under the following circumstances:
- Korean male, single, age mid-20s
- Stayed in Singapore for 10+ years since secondary
- Graduated from NTU in 2018 with Engineering degree, worked slightly more than 1 year with EP
- Working in semiconductor industry as an engineer: $3000+ basic salary, $4000+ inclusive of allowance
- Average monthly take-home salary including overtime, benefits: $5000+
- Never offered or applied for PR previously during my education
For personal reasons, I am applying for PR now despite recommendations of waiting for a few NOAs. Still, I'd like to hear your opinion on the chances of success before I submit my application. Thank you all for your time and have a nice day.

Were you invited to apply for PR previously? If you were but you didn't apply back then, you have almost zero chance because they think you tried to evade NS

I did not receive any invitations or offers for PR. It is perhaps because I studied in an
International School until JC, as I heard my peers in local secondary school received the invitation around that time.

pretty low unless your Chinese-Korean ethnicity.
I not lawyer/teacher/CPA.
You've been arrested? Law Society of Singapore can provide referrals.
You want an International School job? School website or
http://www.ISS.edu
Your rugrat needs a School? Avoid for profit schools
You need Tax advice? Ask a CPA
You ran away without doing NS? Shame on you!

When you say Chinese-Korean, you mean like one of my parents being from China?

No one knows. Long processing time does not guarantee approval either. There are people who wait more than 2 years and still get rejected.

LOL, that's one way to put it. I don't think it's 100% chance, though it is leaps and bounds ahead of every other possible advantage.
