Struggling to find an exit opportunity in Singapore. Been looking for over a year now and the only ones who have shown interest are other consulting firms (looking for an industry exit) (contd..)

OP, assume you’re at McK? And currently based in Singapore? What sector? Are the jobs not good or just not there? Have you had interviews? Trying to figure out which end of the pipeline might help.

I didn’t love my experiences with them, but a lot of companies do seem to use executive search firms in Singapore. Probably worth a few chats if you are frustrated with other avenues. Do you have much of a network in the expat community? That’s usually good for at least some intel on the job market. To SC2’s question - assuming you currently live in SG, getting your PEP would definitely help remove some initial barriers

like

(contd..) Would love to get advise on how to do this? Also if anyone has any interesting opportunities please do let me know :)

Are the roles not meeting salary expectations? I was under the impression there were lots of good roles in Sing, just that they dead-end pretty quickly given senior management is mostly the local “in-crowd”

What’s your skillset / industry?

Digital - mostly digital transformations, and enterprise agility
