EP 01 : GETTING A JOB IN SINGAPORE *If you think sending 10 or even 50 applications is enough… think again. Many of my Indonesian friends have sent 500+ resumes before landing a job. Most companies won’t even respond if your profile doesn’t match, so don’t be discouraged by the silence. Just keep applying! *No updates after the interview? – The interviewer will usually say, “We’ll update you soon.” That could mean a week… or forever. Send a thank-you note right after the interview and follow up in a week if there’s no reply. *Work pass application begins – As a foreigner, you need a work pass (S Pass or EP) to be legally employed in Singapore. EP (Employment Pass) – For professionals, usually requires higher qualifications and salary. S Pass – For mid-skilled workers, with minimum salary requirements. Processing time? It can take 1-3 weeks for approval (sometimes longer). *Work pass rejection? – Yes, getting a job doesn’t guarantee your pass will be approved. Appeal or reapply – Some companies will appeal on your behalf. If they don’t, you’ll need to start the job hunt again. *Health check-up required – If you’re applying for an S Pass, you’ll need to undergo a medical examination, including: ✅ General physical check-up ✅ Blood tests for infectious diseases (HIV, syphilis) ✅ Chest X-ray for tuberculosis (TB) 1️⃣5️⃣ Welcome to Singapore! – You did it!
