How old are you and how many years of experience?Older applicants would have to command higher salaries to qualify, commensurate with the work experience and quality they are expected to bring
If it does that, it allows bot the employee and the employer to game the system. I know too many that have. They want as much opacity as possible in order to tweak the system overnight if they have to. They will continue to do this until the get the local SMEs to start hiring locals over the preferred foreigners (not necessarily cheaper but usually a lot more productive than the local who thinks his position isn't a job but an entitlement.).AngMoG wrote:Should have ticked the "S Pass if EP is rejected" field (or sth like that).
But it is worrying that the practice now is a very opaque set of criteria, which effectively puts the minimum salary around 3.5-4K. If they want a minimum salary of $4K for EP, why don't they just say so?
But increasing minimum salary requirements doesn't provide any added incentive for companies to higher locals - if anything it gives more power to locals to demand higher salaries (which in turn leads straight back to your point about entitlement)sundaymorningstaple wrote: If it does that, it allows bot the employee and the employer to game the system.

This is the reason given in my lettersundaymorningstaple wrote:Only if the employer is willing to spend more on you. Even then it's not a guarantee.
Having gone through a similar mess, years ago, if your employer is willing to appeal and offer a pay of something like 4,500, then you do stand a chance of being considered.josebhai wrote:Doe this give an guarantee that if i appeal with an hike in my salary , will i get my EP approved or they might reject with different reason ?
Opaque rules are rarely good for anyone, in my experience. With clear rules, at least one knows what's expected, and can plan accordingly. With opaque rules, it's trial and error, which when we are talking about hiring, can delay the process for months.sundaymorningstaple wrote:If it does that, it allows bot the employee and the employer to game the system.
