NETIZEN SHARE WHY YOUR PART TIME EXPERIENCE AND INTERSHIP MATTERS MORE THAN YOUR GPA!

For fellow students who are stressed out looking for jobs, there is always a door open for you.

I was from a local poly, with a rather okay gpa of 3.7. Was aiming for NTU, but couldn’t get into any of the courses (despite applying for cut off point of 3.6 and below. ) Went to a private uni ultimately, and graduated within a year (due to exemptions).

Graduated last year August, and was very worried that most employers will favour local degrees over private degrees, much less a graduate who only studied for one year in uni. Started searching for jobs in end of Sept (to allow myself one month of rest time).

I was very lucky to get a job by November, despite going for roughly 7 interviews. And truly, most employers asked nothing about my gpa. They were more focused on my experience for part time and internship.

I thought private degrees would pay much lesser than market rates, as we can see from internet. However, I got offered a job which is totally unrelated to the field I studied, and got a decent starting pay of 2.8k for a private degree fresh grad.

So don’t worry, things will definitely work out for all of you out there. Try out different fields if you’re unable to find one of your course. This will even allow you to learn and gain a new skill set.

THINKING OF GOING KOREA TO DO PLASTIC SURGERY?? HERE A LOOP HOLE FOR YOU TO TAKE NOTE!

THINKING OF GOING KOREA TO DO PLASTIC SURGERY?? HERE A LOOP HOLE FOR YOU TO TAKE NOTE!

South Korean plastic surgeons are renowned amongst their international peers and have presented or have had special tributes at prestigious cosmetic surgery conferences outside of Korea, such as the annual one hosted by American Board of Plastic Surgeons.

South Korea does have various plastic surgeon boards. The most notable being the Korean Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (KAAPS). Entry into this organization requires members to a licensed plastic surgeon. In Korea, there are approximately 1,500+ licensed plastic surgeons. However, due to an interesting loophole in South Korean law there are actually about 15,000 doctors practicing plastic surgery without actually being licensed to do so. This was a figure that KAAPS determined in a report put out earlier this year.

All elective procedures, or medical procedures for that matter carry risks with them. The best way to minimize that risk, is to go to a clinic that is licensed and insured to treat foreign medical patients, and that the doctor performing the procedure is a licensed plastic surgeon.

My Seoul Secret | The Trip Advisor of Korean Plastic Surgery, is a Korean Plastic Surgery and a medical tour information information service currently supported by the South Korean government that is organizing accredited clinics and information for others in English.

URA CLOSES PAYMENT COUNTERS. HOW TO APPEAL?

Everyday thousands of summonses being issued by the URA (Urban Redevelopment Authority) agents. Some these summonses are issued by the URA agents without due consideration and good common sense.

This lead to the affected drivers having to appeal for the reducement or waiver of the summon issued. However, URA has closed the counter for payment and APPEALS.

ALL appeals has to be done through online and the URA has the liberty to reply to the appeal within 14 days. Such an approach is not only HIGH HANDED but also DRACONIAN. Singaporean ought to knows and being aware of the high handedness of URA in its dealings with the public.

M1 CUSTOMERS CLAIM CHEAT. CLAIMS SCAM

Dear M1,

First, your system rejects the request to purchased data plan. And when my fiance tries to do it again by restarting the phone and sending the request, it doesn’t works and deduct all the account balance from S$11.35 to S$0.01 with your costly data price of S$2.00 per MB for MCard.

When he called in your customer service, your staff refuse to provide a refund and insist he do another top up to continue using your service because the User is supposed to turn off the Mobile Data every time before purchasing the data plan.

Now when we do a top-up of S$18.00 for the 500mb free data as advertised, your system cheats him by not giving him the free data. So is this a scam?
