U want sample from NUS grad? Ok...here you go

4,300 applications ... and still no job
Is it my race? Is it my gender? Or is it my arts degree?

Today
August 2, 2005

By Leena Sathiya
28, Jobless Graduate

SINCE April last year, I have sent out about 4,300 applications for a variety of jobs. I have received 17 responses.

I am an arts and social sciences graduate of the National University of Singapore. It has been 13 months since I have held a job, permanent or temporary, and it is not for lack of trying.

Apart from the 4,300 applications I have sent out, I have also registered with online job portals, recruitment agencies and bodies such as the Ministry of Manpower and the Workforce Development Agency.

Knowing that there is no such thing as a free lunch, I have kept my options open and am even prepared to take up contract or temporary positions.

I have also been realistic about remuneration, job location, benefits, etc. Yet, I have not been offered a single position.

Yes, I have been to some interviews and taken psychometric tests. But each time, I received letters of rejection, all of which seem to be to be worded the same way.

They say, for example: "We are impressed by your excellent credentials and academic qualifications but regret to inform you that we are unable to proceed further with your interest at this time."

They sometimes promise to contact me within six months should something "become available", but they never do.

And it is not as though I have no work experience. I worked for more than two years as a marketing executive at a training consultancy, a job I managed to get through family contacts.

A
Meanwhile, I have been forced to ask myself some questions when it comes to finding employment in Singapore: How much of a role do factors such as gender and race play in getting a job here?

I ask because there are still so many "non-customer service jobs" where applicants must be bilingual in English and Mandarin, when most Singaporeans seem to understand enough English to do business with one another.

It seems as if my Indian female friends who were in the course I took have resorted to entering the teaching profession after failing to find jobs in other industries.

Many of my Chinese friends have found jobs in the customer service, telecommunications, journalism or banking industries.

Recently, a friend told me that I had three strikes against me because I am Indian, female and an arts graduate.

I do hope that he is wrong.

It's odd that she mentioned that only her indian female friends. What about her male indian friends?

Hey sifu where are you?

Look at what tony wrote here. Love to be without a job well cos the money is not earned by him.

 

[halsey02]

He looks like a typical useless sinkie that the PAP want to get rid of as soon as possible.

>His tight financial situation is cause for worry. His parents give him $10 at a time for necessities.>

I have to half agree with that 'useless' remark, he has a grandmother living with him, who is paying for her upkeep?, at 35 years old, his parents occassionally give him $10, he still have not 'flown the nest'....useless would be an apt word.:p

I like being unemployed because I can keep myself busy with reading and such, but if it stretches over a year I get crazy from the social isolation.

i also have some friends who is unemployed but they are living comfortable..this kind of ppl usually know many ppl and have many friends ...and can get good lobang to make hit and run business ...when i say hit and run does not mean illegal business ( of course some of them into illegal bisiness ) . these kind of ppl are street smart ....

 

[drifter]

this kind of ppl live by their saving ...once a while got good lobang to make money which can last them over a year ..better then working for ppl and also have their own time ..

buy smaller property and save like mad during employment. only spend $20 a day inclusive transport and food.

CPF can pay mortgage for 10 yrs without employment. $15k cash can last me a year without job while supporting my mother.

If I rent out master and common room and sleep in living room, can survive on rental alone. when CPF runs out in 10 yrs, can downgrade to some lousy Woodlands flat.

This is worst case scenario, I try to keep myself employed in the meantime.
