SINGAPORE : Private sector bonuses are expected to be better this year.

A survey of 300 companies by the Singapore National Employers’ Federation (SNEF) last month showed that half of them could be paying out bonuses of two to three-and-a-half months, with a median payout of 2.8 months.

The SNEF also expects the job market to continue to be very strong in 2008.

Speaking to Channel NewsAsia, SNEF’s President Stephen Lee said the economy created 170,000 jobs in the first nine months of this year, or as many jobs as the whole of last year.

Errant job seekers be careful!

Posted in Career Tools and Resources on December 7th, 2007 by Justin Ng

You could be the next to be blacklisted by HR professionals and employers in Singapore if you are not careful.

Singapore Jobs Market Blacklist Tool is widely used by local companies in their recruitment activities to find out if you have been blacklisted by other employers previously. Some of the common reasons include but not withstanding the following:

1. Failed to turn up for confirmed job interview without prior notice.
2. Failed to report work on day one.
3. Poor working attitude.
4. Missing in action.
5. No call no show.
6. Falsify resume data.
7. Breach of contract.
and more..

Check out this cool blacklist tool and subscribe to receive email notification when you are blacklisted by employers. Personally, I have came across many time-wasters and job seekers who are just trying to test their market value and I think this tool will come in very handy now :)
