looking at Job there are multiple openings in Tunnel M&E Managers. in 2015, I was getting arround 6K SGD, working s an Sr Electrical engineer / Sr. M&E. and today I am standing here in 2025 they are barely offering more than 10K, inflammation is high room rent is higher now in Singapore arround 3 times than 2017. I don't think it is worth to relocate again an Singapore with less than an 10K salary cause I am a family person now. what is your view on this ?

Does companies relying more on AI? I mean.. I use AI, for some of my work too, cause it can make things faster, I feel human supervision is still needed. AI can help with data crunching and automating repetitive tasks, but when it comes to decision-making or understanding context, humans have the upper hand. What about your industry? Are they focusing more on AI or still valuing human touch? What industry are you in?

How much has the job market landscape in Singapore really changed over the past 10 years? I’ve been working for a while now, and I’m starting to notice how different the job market feels compared to when I first entered in 2013. Are companies looking for totally different things in candidates these days? Or is it more about adapting to new tools, faster workflows, and changing work cultures? Would love to hear what others have observed too.

As someone working in HR, I’ve been trying to keep up with the latest trends that truly support employee overall wellbeing. Not just the usual mental health talks, but things that improve overall quality of life at work. Like, what are companies in Singapore actually doing now that works? Is it shorter work weeks? Flexible hours? Wellness budgets? Keen to hear from others—what kind of working culture initiatives have you seen or experienced that genuinely made a difference?

Bro been seeing more job listings mentioning blockchain technology lately, not just in crypto startups, but in banks, supply chain, even marketing agencies. 👀 I don’t have a tech background, but I’m super curious. What skills do you actually need to break into this field? Is coding a must, or are there non-tech roles as well (like PM, ops, compliance, etc)?

Feels like everyone’s pivoting to digital transformation such as tech, data, AI tools, etc. Even folks from biz or comms are upskilling fast. I actually like my current role, but seeing how some of my team’s processes and SOPs are slowly getting automated makes me wonder if I’ll get left behind. Lowkey feeling pressured to keep up even though I’m not sure in what ways I can upgrade myself. I know it's never too late to learn but how do i decide which area of my job needs improvement?

Digital transformation is a major trend, with companies heavily investing in tech like AI and cloud-based solutions. However, there’s a shortage of skilled talent to meet this demand, so businesses are focusing on upskilling their employees. For those in tech, now’s the time to upskill in areas like AI, data analytics, and cybersecurity. Even if you're in a non-tech role, embracing digital tools is becoming essential. Anyone else navigating this shift and feeling the pressure to adapt?

Fresh graduate here. Completed MSc in Supply Chain Management from NUS as an international student. I’ve invested a significant amount in tuition and living expenses, and I’ve been actively searching for a job for the past 8 months in SG. Despite giving it my best, I’m still trying to understand where I might be going wrong. I'm now reaching out to this community—if anyone has any leads or advice, I would truly appreciate your help. I’m open and willing to work in any kind of supply chain role.

Hi guys... need some advice. I completed 3 months of probation, thinking I was going to be confirmed... but my boss told me that my probation has to be extended for another 3 months because it's the industry standard lately. Is this true? If my contract I signed said probation is 3 months, can I contest this? Appreciate any advice for this 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
