Hi everyone,

I would like to know the scope of HR in Singapore for a person who is an Engineer in IT, has an MBA in HR, and worked for 9 months as an HR generalist in Mumbai. Can anyone provide me with some guidance or links on this topic?

Thanks in anticipation.

Hi,

Looking at it from a global perspective, Human Resources has always been of utmost importance in successful organizations. In Singapore, there are various opportunities for Human Resource professionals. You may register yourself with Naukri (Singapore), Monster, and JobStreet. These websites will definitely help you find a good job.

Feel free to revert in case of any queries.

Regards,

Dear All,

To come to Singapore to become an HR is a near-zero opportunity because:

- There is an abundance of qualified and seasoned Singaporean HR professionals in the country itself to begin with.
- The current focus for the Singaporean Government is to create jobs and fill them with Singaporeans affected by recent retrenchments.
- Unless you have very unique or special knowledge, for example, you are a research scientist lacking in the current workforce or identified by the Government for future nation-building, your work permit will never be approved. Even an Indian Chef needs to be a Diploma Holder before his permit is renewed or approved.
- The cost of living, especially housing in Singapore, is much higher compared to India. Unless you are relocated to Singapore as an expatriate, you may not be able to afford a comfortable lifestyle.

Reality bites!

Jane, you are absolutely right. I had a good experience in hunting for a job in Singapore. It's very hard to get a white-collar job in Singapore for a non-Singaporean without holding a valid Permanent Residence (PR) pass.
