Working in hotel

Hi Everyone,

I'm from Hong Kong. I am looking to work in Singapore. I would like to know if it is easy to get a visa? Or, should I get a working holiday visa.

I graduated in hotel management. What are the salary like? How about the nightlife over in Singapore?

Thanks, the salary will be ok right? I am not a big spender.

Plus, I am looking for a flatmate to share with the rent.

How much is your "ok" ?

For me, I earn only SGD 2,100 but am able to live comfortably for my standard.

Some people can't even live with SGD 4,500

Good point. A lot of people lose sight of this.

And last week, in a clark quay bar, a guy was whining that he finds it hard to survive on his 180K PA (apartment paid by company .. )

Did you read the link?

You cannot apply for a work visa/permit. Only your employer can.

Did you do any research at all?
I suggest the "search" function of this site, and the MoM and ICA websites. It's all well discussed and explained!
