JOBS .COM.SG : SINGAPORE JOBS DIRECTORY


Welcome to the Singapore Jobs Directory.


Who runs Singapore Jobs Directory ?
My name is Teck Hong and I am the editor and owner of this jobsite. If you need to contact me, please click on my name.


How did this jobsite start ?
This goes way back to 1999, when I noticed that many job seekers did not seem to know how to make good use of websites and search engines. I decided to help by listing all the good jobs sites on a single page, making them easier to visit one by one. Over the past 8 years, the list has grown longer and now includes general recruitment agencies, specialist recruiters and executive level search firms or head hunters as they are popularly called. To see how the website has changed over the years, click here: Internet Archive of Jobs.com.sg

If you found Jobs.com.sg through a search engine, you are not the only one. Popular search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN Live Search bring thousands of job seekers to this website everyday. If you are a mid-career professional, a programmer, an accountant, engineer, sales person, undergraduate or a student, I am sure you will be able to locate a recruiter who is able to help you with your career move.


Is the Singapore Job Directory a recruitment company ?
No, it is not. The Singapore Jobs Directory is simply a jobs website providing job hunting resources. It has links to dozens of other sites that will help match you to a potential employer. If you are a recruiter or an employer, you are welcome to make use of the free job posting forum at Singapore Jobs Market . There is no fee to pay when you register and post ads at this jobsite. The costs of running it is funded by advertisers as well as the Google Adsense programme.


Jobs Prospects: Singapore in recent years
Singapore looks like it has emerged from a few years of significant unemployment. Jobs are now in abundance especially in sectors like contruction, pharmaceuticals, finance and marine. In certain areas, the huge demand for skilled people has actually chased up salary packages to record levels. The general optimism and the government's drive to boost the population to 6.5 million people seem to have attracted more non-residents here. It is now possible for anyone to assess their eligibility to become a Singapore resident, simply by going onto the Internet. I am sure most of us have noticed how cosmopolitan our estates have become.


Last Words
I hope the Singapore Jobs Directory is of help to you in your career search. May the future will be better for you through constant self-improvement, enterprise and hard work. Stay clear of get-rich-quickly schemes and gambles that are disguised as investments. Do not even consider any activity that sounds remotely illegal. Singapore is a very unforgiving place and a criminal record will set you very far back in the employment market long after you have paid your dues.

Work aside, I hope each of you will treasure your family relationships. At the end of the day, you will realise that employers value you for what you can contribute to the business. When you are down and out, only your family stays with you.




Wishing you the very best in life !
