Bruh, how am i supposed to chill about my present and future when this is happening. I’ve already took a software developer bootcamp to ease my panic to make myself more tech savy and not to have ai worries. This outsourcing and importing thing is next level of worry. Do you guys even feel like singapore is looking after singaporeans anymore?
So back to the question, what jobs/careers are left in singapore if companies outsources/relocates to cheaper countries or hires imported foreigners?
hello friend! im currently basically in the job market as well - admittedly the job market is at quite a terrible point but still, there are many more openings than we tend to think! what has helped me significantly is staying open-minded and widening my job search to include those that are out of my comfort zone or even out of my reach in terms of ability!
there are still companies that predominantly hire local citizens, partly because they are locally run for the most part - but that doesnt have to mean the job is less optimal in any aspect, even in the monetary compensation sense!
ive found that you genuinely dont know where your fate lies - i got hired by a completely unexpected company with such little experience! just keep applying (in advance) and sooner or later, i promise the right company will hire you! (:
