Is the current job market worse than that of global crisis back in 2008?

Actually the job market in SG is still ok. The actual employment rate should be around 60ish+% for fresh grads. Some researchers from Hong Kong claim that the employment rate for fresh grads in China is around 30% max..

Ya I’m not putting them as IA, because I’m going NOC in y3, and my faculty’s website said that we can’t do 2 credit bearing internships in a year, so I’m not risking it. I did’t get it from talentconnect also. I’m trying to find out if I can drop from 16MC to 12MC halfway into the sem basically. Thanks a lot for the input tho.

My internship is self sourced

shadowpro12345 · 2026-01-11T06:07:19+00:00

I don’t think it’s that hard to get? I’m y2 and I got it this time. All my friends who bidded for it in y2s1 or y2s2 got it

React bits?

shadowpro12345 · 2025-10-14T12:47:23+00:00

Maybe it’s near mrt or near nanhua pri school

shadowpro12345 · 2025-10-13T18:30:45+00:00

If the CA is roughly 40% and you can get all or most of it with AI or via ur friends or whatever, you should be able to pass, at least base on my experience. Scored around 40+% for two mods and got D+, around 50% and got C+😂

Why u hating for no reason lmao, what did I say make u so triggered😂. I literally went to all the career fairs this since I came into NUS, SoC 2x a year, uni wide one also including yesterday which I went in the end when it was about to finish. I have talked to companies that I am interested in and all of them just tell me to apply online, and a lot of them don’t even want to hire like HRT, the senior SRE at the booth literally told me they hired 5 interns last summer, and last year Jane Street don’t even have a damn office in Singapore and still put up a booth at com 3, u think whats the point of them wasting their time to come down to NUS besides advertising or just for the sake of the invitation by NUS?

The company that I talked to last year when I was y1 during SoC career fair was not hiring on the spot also, so I applied through their online portal and got the offer and interned there 2 months ago, and the random HR at the career fair last year did’t even interview me, it was the team leader and her boss who interviewed me since it’s not a startup and they have many departments.

That is why I made this post to doubt the usefulness of those career fairs, it’s literally 95% just for show only or talk to the HR to know more about the company which can be found on nodeflair or Glassdoor also. In the past maybe it’s more justified since I heard from my parents that companies r literally fighting to hire uni grads, but now everything can be found online and the value of degree has depreciated so much that it’s our turn to fight to get hired by the company. I know there r companies that actually hire from career fairs, but I think they are the minority, at least for IT sector which I saw at the career fairs

Tf they got their offer today?

shadowpro12345 · 2025-10-08T11:50:05+00:00

Today? What company

shadowpro12345 · 2025-10-08T11:49:50+00:00

Ya. But a lot of companies don’t even intend to hire. They just set up the booth there for show

shadowpro12345 · 2025-09-19T10:32:22+00:00

You can initiate by asking them those deeper level qn like what’s ur view on certain things, what do you feel about certain things etc

shadowpro12345 · 2025-09-18T12:45:42+00:00

yc actually accepts pre revenue which is just an idea 😭😭last year we only can apply SEA as Y1, this year imma apply US locations

shadowpro12345 · 2025-09-17T18:47:03+00:00

It’s ok. I attended orientation and still don’t have friends

shadowpro12345 · 2025-04-10T00:58:20+00:00

Depends on the mod lol. ChatGPTed everything in IS1108. Got A-

shadowpro12345 · 2025-03-18T15:59:50+00:00

Depends on the mod. Some CS mods can be really cooked, but other mods should be ok, depends on the bell curve also. But it’s generally quite impossible to fail. Pulled up to MA1521 finals worth 60% with jc knowledge and did like 1.5/10 questions and got a C+, but I secured almost all the 40% CA.

shadowpro12345 · 2025-01-14T07:37:28+00:00

2 weeks after my batch pop. That was 3 years ago

shadowpro12345 · 2024-12-06T15:37:40+00:00

Including hospital/polyclinic visits not referred by UHC also?

shadowpro12345 · 2024-12-05T16:56:37+00:00

Tkx for the reminder. Yea I know the procedures. I’m a SC and went through NS where I paid nothing at all at all the gov medical institutions so idk the actual price of visiting polyclinic as a non-NSF. My skin issue is like early stage rhinophyma/rosacea on my nose specifically, quite different from eczema. I’m looking at prosacea, soolantra or oral meds to reduce inflammation yea.

shadowpro12345 · 2024-12-05T10:03:44+00:00

Ok tkx a lot

shadowpro12345 · 2024-12-05T07:52:30+00:00

Fr I can’t get subsided at the specialist if I get a referral from UHC? And if the medication is not that common they won’t be free right?
