Be Credible

I used to be an active member of a particular forum. One thread there, as I remember where all about Singapore. I was curious since I was looking for a job as a nurse abroad and Singapore was one of my prospects. So I read the thread and most of the posts there were from members who were in the IT profession. Singapore was also in need of IT personnel and it is a great opportunity for them. I got interested since I have a brother who is in the IT course as of the moment. Perhaps what I can learn from those posts, I might suggest it to my brother to help him find a job.

Since Singapore is in demand for IT, they are also strict with the qualifications. It is an advantage or rather it is required that you have a Cisco certification for you to be able to land a job there. Of course there are a lot of IT graduates these days and the competition is tough. You have to have the edge and the X factor. Graduating from IT course does not end there, constant reading and updating is still a must since a lot of new software...new technologies are coming out every now and then and as an IT, you have to know about these and keep yourself updated to the current trends. This helps an IT professional to succeed.

I hope someday, my brother will get his own certificate and be able to enhance his IT skills and be successful someday.
