		<description>Hi Rohit,

Unfortunately I really can&#039;t predict your chances of finding a job in Singapore, since there are too many variables involved.

Before you visit, it is better to get some feedback from the market on the demand for your background and also setup a few exploratory meetings/interviews. In addition to job sites try using LinkedIn for this.

		<description>Hello there,

I am in India. And I am looking for a job since one yr. I am using Jobstreet / jobscentral / ST701 / JobsDB since then in Bio Technology related section.

I have a Girlfriend that is Singaporean. And I wanna find a job in Singapore so we can be together. Send out over 150 applications. And I get no replies.

It’s really hard for a foreigner to find a job. I don’t know who ever told me it’s easy. Because it ain’t.

I have been working in India in an BT( Lifeceicenc ) company for over 1 years. And it was kinda said when I quit my job. But I wanted to risk it.

And now I can’t get my feet on the ground of Singapore.

If someone can help me out. Feel free to email me:
praveen2534727@gmail.com

Thanks in advance

Regards
Praveen</description>

		<description>Hello AP,

If you get an Employment Pass from your company, then it usually pretty straightforward to get a Dependent Pass for your wife, based on that. She can only get an Employment Pass after she gets a job in Singapore.

There will always be companies that are looking to hire :) - she&#039;ll just have to start looking for a job and see how it goes.</description>

		<description>Hello,

I have two main questions.  First question is regarding work visas.  I may have an opportunity to work in Singapore, which my company may sponsor visas for myself and potentially my wife as well.  However, if my company does not provide my wife with visas, is there a possibility for her to obtain working visas?

Second question, assuming she gets working visas, are there companies looking to hire Marketing candidates?  My wife has extensive beverage and package goods experience.  

Thanks for your help!</description>
