Singapore relocation tips for average people

Banking

You know what... just start with Seedly blog post.

1. Get a credit card as soon as you hit the minimum salary limit, debit cards are dangerous. I got my entire Maybank SG account emptied overnight and it took 3 months to recover that amount.
2. You won't have CPF there when you are on a work pass, a typical Singaporean/PR has 31.5% of their paychecks forcibly saved (37%/117%). You can use StashAway, create a retirement goal and save that amount there.

The Incomplete Study Guide for RoR Interviews Outside Malaysia

This gist serves as a reminder for myself or for anyone who has found this on what to prepare. At this point, I have failed approximately 5 interviews (and counting) in Singapore, China, and Hong Kong. On the bright side, doing interviews allowed me to find out the gaps I have in my programming knowledge.

Take note:

1. Just because there are questions I notice being asked by companies in certain territories, does not mean all companies in that territory will ask those, nor does it mean no companies outside the territories stated won't ask them.
2. The number of companies I have interviewed with is considerably small. This study guide covers very little ground of what can actually be asked.
3. Every failed interview gets you closer to better offers. So don't give up, keep going, you are bound to make it.
