Viveliber: Calm down... I work in the importing business.
Rock^Star: Really...you're really bring my race in to it? Hahaha
pathetic. Lets not stoop to that level. If you cannot hold an
argument without taking cheap shots better you keep your mouth
closed. Secondly don't be so quick to assume that everyone from
Ireland is caucasian.
It is quite the opposite, most workers that I know who come here
are highly skilled and well educated, which is why they were
offered a position in the first place.
Why would a Singaporean employer offer an foreigner a position
if he or she could employ a local? In my case it was because I had
over 20 years experience in the industry and the other candidates
did not! That's all!
you wouldn't know. for the lower skilled blu collar jobs, HR
sometimes have to balance the number of foriegners versus locals
within the organisation, they can;'t take more, not less. becasue
our sg foreign cheap labor policies are too opoen arse. sometimes
it may be also politics, local bosses wants more sgreans and lesser
cheap labor at times so durig retrancement some of the sgreans can
go first he still secure his job. as for executives and managers,
sometimes and many times its politics, more in place now, and
sometimes its about circumstances - example, company wanna break
inot a market and need foreigner with the same natuionality or race
so as to have some influence over. its not a virgin clean world out
there i tell you.
