sinkie parents are spoiling their kids. no debate there.

employability becums a problem when company looks at resume and throws it into bin as red flags are quickly factored in. my sis who is still working as senior executive and recruiter in hr in sg corporate sector for decades chimes in the vetting process by order of importance:
1. skills - not relevent, chuck
2. experience - no depth and not specific, chuck; job hopper, chuck (for entry jobs, zero experience in college years not even as lowly waitress or librarian, big red flag, chuck)
3. age - too young, too old, chuck.
4. sex - depending on job, lower-pay, entry jobs go to females while higher-pay, tech jobs go to males (glass ceiling is real)
5. language and communication - can easily spot flaws in resumes
6. advanced education and training - for tech jobs must see certifications and courses attended (such as ipv6 address admin or ipsec courses)
6.9 university - overseas, top 10 such as stanford, harvard, mit, caltech, uc berkeley, no relevant skills but can call in for interview as they can be candidates for “management trainees” to general talent pool in company; overseas, outside of top 30 (a.k.a. wtf is this uni?), no relevant major or skills, chuck (no ifs, ands and buts); nus or ntu, can call in for interview as asking pay is usually below expectations. :p

once they make the 1st interview (usually by phone), attitude, knowledge, speech, answering of questions and thinking on the feet take the stage.
