Hi, I always get valuable information from the forum, and finally I need to post a question myself. I've recently moved to Singapore and found a potential employer. My husband's company is about to apply for the dependent pass for me. After my dp is processed, my potential employer would be applying for LOC. The HR of my husband's company advised that because I do not have an actual certificate right now that my highest education qualification to be listed on DP would be highschool (I just graduated from a university in NY, USA a month ago, and they can take up to four months to mail out the diploma). I did my homework on this forum about people not having the actual cert and how Singapore gov doesn't consider you as a college graduate until you have the official cert. my concern is then, when my potential employer applies for LOC, my educational qualification would be high school as well? But that sounds like I'm not qualified to do the job without a degree. My school just emailed me and said they will write me a letter of certificate for me, but does it really not matter at all? My potential company is a marketing agency and they need somebody whose mother tongue is Japanese (I am a Japanese native), and it is an intern position which would convert to full time after 3 months. how should we deal with this situation? I am afraid of getting the LOC rejected because officially I would only be a "high school graduate" and in fact, I just graduated a university.
I'm losing a lot of sleep over this. I am so sorry if what I wrote is confusing. I guess I'm just really stressed and it's affecting my verbal ability to write clearly.
Thank you so much for your help!
