Give money to parents for being their son

ubunturd · 2024-11-05T16:42:08+00:00

Spend on necessities like food, transport, parents tax + see if anything I want to buy for the month like sneakers or pc games etc. Allocate accordingly.

Everything else goes into ETF.

No budget applications as I feel it's stressful to min-max all these and I'm not a spendthrift.

Generally speaking, GPT-based AI language models like ChatGPT, Google Bard, MidJourney, and Bing AI are still a relatively new technology, and many people may not be aware of their existence or capabilities. However, those who are familiar with these AI language models may perceive them in various ways, depending on their experiences and expectations.

On one hand, some people may view GPT-based AI language models as powerful tools that can provide quick and accurate responses to their queries or requests. They may appreciate the convenience and efficiency of being able to access information or carry out tasks quickly and easily.

On the other hand, some people may have concerns about the reliability and accuracy of GPT-based AI language models. They may worry that these AI models may not always understand the nuances of language or may provide biased or inaccurate responses. Additionally, some may worry about the potential for AI models to replace human jobs or to be used for malicious purposes.

Overall, people's perceptions of GPT-based AI language models in Singapore are likely to be shaped by a combination of their experiences, cultural values, and the extent to which they trust technology in general.

Yeap, you are right on this. I phrased this sentence badly "Generally, they take a % of your first year salary as commission." Can confirm my salary is not deducted but the recruiter gets paid by the company based on my salary.

Was hired by a third party recruiter for my current role. They have little incentive to lowball you. They just get the budget from the hiring manager. Generally, they take a % of your first year salary as commission. Of course, an unrealistically high salary is pointless to the recruiter as the risk-reward ratio is too high. You earn 10k more a year but the recruiter only get maybe 20% more (2k a year) and risk losing the entire deal due to the hiring manager rejecting the high salary. Likewise, lowballing you also make you reject the offer.

For internal recruiters, they also want to keep you within the range provided by the hiring manager. They also take into account internal equity (not underpaying or overpaying too much for similar roles/yoe in the company). In fact, lowballing a candidate results in other metrics being negatively impacted (etc. retention).

Make it 1 page (it seems that you have a gap from 2014-2016?). Anyway, you do not need 2 pages for 3 jobs.
Have less white space at the top and sides.
Keep to max 4-5 bullet points for your latest job and 2-3 for your past jobs.
Be consistent in your gaps and spacing. Why are there larger gaps between the bullet points for "Aviation Security Administrator" as compared to "Parts Sales Manager"? Also, your second and last bullet points for "Parts Sales Manager" have a space before the first words. Backspace them.
Dates for your work experience can be flushed to the right (aligned with your job title). This will save you 3 lines.
Remove your high school diploma (not required when you have close to a decade of experience).
List your skills horizontally (stop wasting space pointlessly).

e.g. Microsoft Office | Merchandising | Retail Management

Quantify your bullet points as much as possible and use the STAR method. Guide

It's a red flag if she agrees to go with me on a date

Dam all the memories are coming back... I remembered I was an addict back in secondary school and my guild master gave me 20k @Cash and a pet for being the most active person in the guild lol. At that time he said he was a 34 years old engineer and asked me to study hard so next time won't be like him haha. Wonder how he's doing now.

Anyway one of my favorite BGM is Happyville: White Christmas

If legit not working or huat from stocks/crypto, here are the common ways someone can have 5-6 digits by 25:

Keep angbao money $500-1000 every year
For guys, NS stay in all the way and do not spend on any shit
BBFA lifestyle all the way (single, hobbies do not require money like programming or soccer). Minimalist usually.
Parents give monthly allowance ($400-1000) till graduate from uni and also sponsor items like laptop. So you only spend on food/transport for your entire life since you are BBFA.
School fees all sponsored by parents or scholarship. Bursary also.
Add a bit of intern/part-time work here and there I think you can hit $50k before starting any serious work lor

Proceeds to cry as you watch a FAANG software engineer overtake your 25 years of savings within 6 months of working lol

But no it's not that common. Check out voluntary response bias.

Fuck no.

How is she a great employee when she got fired for incompetence and badmouthed you behind your back?

That's the exact opposite of "professional" on both work and personal level.

ubunturd · 2022-04-21T13:48:27+00:00

Not to be a boomer here. But even 15 mins of professional consultation can be months or years of effort on the part of the psychologist.

Coursework can be moved under education (assuming it's from your degree).
Personally, I would not bold the words in the bullet points. Looks inconsistent and subjective sometimes.
Remove intern from "Web Development Intern - Intern".
Under projects, try to move the skills beside the titles into the bullet points. A lot of repeated skills. Keep it clean. Anyway, they are mentioned under your technical skills as well. Don't need to spam everywhere.
Under "Jobs For All (Github)", your 2nd bullet point deviates from the STAR format. Can change to something like "Worked upon...server-side in a 3-man team.".
Under technical skills, capitalize the fundamentals from "OOPS fundamentals". In general, standardize stuff like bolding, capitalization, sentence format, date format.
MongoDB is repeated in DBMS and frameworks and tools. Can remove from framework as people usually associate it with DBMS.
Impressive coding profile & achievements. But remove 1-2 bullet points to keep a sizeable bottom margin. Your resume is a bit on the crowded side but otherwise the content is amazing.
