As someone with many years in the headhunting and contract staffing industry, I can tell you that yeah, no client billings, you could find yourself out of a contract. Moreso today than in years gone by.rocky55 wrote:Thanks for your reply:)
I am going to work with OCBC client. Do you have any idea abt that?
And being in a contract job will i face any issues in loosing my job like no client billing etc...
I am not sure about OCBC. Its a local bank and I would imagine you will work with many more locals than foreigners. Or atleast your managers could be locals. If you were working in one of the global banks you would find more foreigners. I could be wrong here. I not suggesting locals are good or bad compared to foreigners. There are all kinds of people everywhere. Other than that I wouldnt know much about OCBC.rocky55 wrote:Thanks for your reply:)

During interview, did you ask how this vacancy came about? that could have provided more insight into the work nature. Salary is not the only factor you need to take into consideration.rocky55 wrote:Thanks for your reply:)

When I was in your shoes some 1 and half years ago, I had the exact same fears. I requested my vendor than I need to talk to my team lead at the clients place. When I spoke to my team lead my fears were rested as he said that most people leave at 6 sharp unless there is a release or something.rocky55 wrote:I thought first time entering in the country we can compromise on salary little bit but after u told about the client i am very much worried. I felt its good chance to get onsite exposure but 24*7 job i dono how ppl will suffer there.
They didnt commited me that u are going for this client but i got some clues that ocbc will be my client. Still am not sure. Once i got to know the client, if i ask for different client will they accept there?
