Regarding Spass application,

Post by gar09 » Thu, 02 Jun 2011 3:13 pm

Dear Sir/Madam

Please advise me regarding my pass application.Currently I am holding spass and working in IT industry. Now I got job offer from other company and my new employer(agency) applied spass for me and I got rejected.
I have graduated with Bachelor Degree majoring in computer science and also got a post graduate diploma from ISS,NUS.I have about 5 years working experience in IT industry.I email to MOM
and enquire the reason why I got rejected but they replied me as they will reply to employer only.
My current salary is only 1.8K and now I got an offer with 2.5K.I hope it should not be a problem. Now I am afraid what the problem lies and is there any chance I can try to appeal?I feel very sad for this outcome.
When I renew my pass,I don't face any problems and apply for new job ,got rejected.I wonder what the problem for applying a new one.I asked my agency and they also don't know what the reason. I really appreciate your kind reply and please advice me what should I do?

Thanks & Rgds,
gar09

First you have to find out why you were rejected from the employer. If it was for quota, there is nothing you can do.

If it was for credentials, you can try to appeal the application (the employer has to do the appeal). Otherwise, you are out of luck. Hopefully you have not resigned from your old company yet.

Obviously you are posting only to get your 5 posts to make a PM. I should just lock your account for being a nuisance.

Sorry, gar09, that was directed to the poster above my post, mariosgp. Made 5 imbecilic posts in quick succession and then split. (Must have wanted to use the PM function without contributing anything of value to the forum itself. We get those kinds a lot. Was not directed at you at all. :wink:
