    @223344 I think I’ll reserve a lot of spite because it isn’t what I want to do in my career

    @223344 It’s a project management job in change management, not at all what I was expecting

    Would you take a massive paycut & an unwanted job overseas for your dreams?

    @lazylarry It’s a full time role, but I’m like you said, quite worried that I’m not able to find a job that pays well or higher than my match :(

    @ralphalvarezz Unfortunately I don’t have a connection like that. Do you happen to have one?

    @ralphalvarezz Thank you, you are really spot on regarding the mental health part. My partner is well on their own, but I do not want to continue being a burden & do feel like my time not working is a waste (even though I've been actively working on my coding & interviewing skills). Not hearing...

    @younggenius It is but we don’t plan on getting married anytime soon, and also I have some sort of pride that hope I can get a PR without their help (my partner has naturalised as a citizen)

    @younggenius If I accept this offer, I plan to really to push through the required time needed to be eligible for PR with this job (likely 1-2 years), then apply for PR and/or find a better paying job in Singapore again.

    @dazza_73 May I asked if your situation has gotten better since relocating? What pushed you to move despite having a paycut?

    @ashs Not at all, it's really good advice & I really appreciate your honest concerns about this decision. I'm just... a little tired from not getting callbacks & each day I feel like I'm wasting my life away. I'm afraid that I won't ever get any offers again, and I lose out on time and money...

    @justified4ever Would recruiters find it odd that I’m looking for a job 3 months into my current role (if I end up taking it?). Theyve also just called me to let me know that they’re raising it to 3.8k
