unless you give more information such as your qualifications etc you are wasting your time and ours.
acom ranges from S$300 to S$10,000+++ a month.
a meal costs between $2.50 and $600+++a head.

Your chances of finding a job in Singapore depends on a) which industry you are looking to work in and b) as rightly pointed out by 'afriend', your qualifications, work experience etc. At present the banking and finance sector seems to be hiring professionals.

Hello

I hold an MBA and an MS in Marketing from the US.I also have six years of experience in banking,advertising and business development. Is the job scenario favorable now or should I wait to apply for my EPEC? Kindly let me know.

So far my job hunt is not good. I have a S Pass but not for much longer it seems.  No one seems interested in hiring anyone except pr and locals/malaysians.
 
I have a diploma which I earned here...at a Singapore college. I never finished college in USA.

I have 12 years mortgage banking experience and over 2 years food an beverage service industry  experience.

I have applied for a lot of credit industry jobs but haven't even received a phone call

this site ? :LOL

no you should go to one of the job sites for singapore, just do a simple google e.g. jobstreets jobsdb

its very unlikely to get a job here with a PR at this point in time if you do not possess some extremely unique skill.

and I can safely say that MBA/MS marketing/secretarial/payroll/ms office are definitely not "extremely unique skills"
