Hi all,
Its been over a year since I last posted and I thought I just
want some closure (whether you as the reader remember/care or not,
that's another thing lol):

I'm not sure if people still remember what went on but I'll
summarize. Basically, I had a very difficult time finding a
engineering job in the US before and after graduation, in spite of
doing pretty everything "right". If you read my older posting, I
wasn't very mentally stable then either, given the pressure I was
feeding myself at that point in time. Since then, I did graduate in
december last year and still couldn't find a job (once again came
close but was ultimately rejected), hence I returned back to
Sg.
Not surpisingly, I had a far better response, although strangely
none of the engineering MNCs responded to me with an interview. I
was however "well accepted" in other fields. I eventually settled
on a banking/finance position which on retrospect seems a better
opportunity than what I had going for me in the US (bcz I was only
applying to engineering jobs there). I felt very relieved that
after 3-4 years of searching, I finally have something to show for
my efforts.
I'll just like to end off with thanks, especially to the posters
who gave me advice in my "darkest" hour. And... if anyone is in the
same predicament, needs encouragement, or have questions, feel free
to shoot.
