  • Major props to my friend Ollie (Head of Talent at Golden Gate Ventures) for filming this video! In part 1, we’ll be discussing how we both got our jobs, the different types of work visas in Singapore, and how you can get your visa sponsored. In the next few videos, we’ll also be covering topics around how to stand out amongst the crowd when job hunting at Singaporean companies, tips for fresh grads, resume & interview advice and answering specific questions around working in tech, venture capital (VC), and the startup space.

      ALSO correction: The EDB Singapore scheme is for startups that secured more than US$10M funding in the past 36 months (not US$20M). I've linked all the relevant resource links in the description box!

    I really want to work or study over there. but I think it is very hard for me to apply, because I wasn't studying the job, wich I do. I made a trainee as media designer, where I have no work experience. After the trainee I got the oppunity to work in the engineering of BMW as a project manager. There I have done mostly change management. Is it in my case possible to get a Job there? I already have a place, where I can live, because my GF is living over there.

    Going from Montreal to Singapore is like immigrating from Afghanistan to Switzerland. lol 😅
    I worked in Singapore in 2016 and now stuck with work in Montreal due to the pandemic. Worst. Year. Ever.
    I almost got back to Singapore with my old company but they closed down the border right after we spoke.🙄
    Now back home in Toronto and likely moving to Europe with work.
    The rownies are ruining everything.
