    Re: Is mandarin neceesary to get a job in IT industry?

    Hi VaishnaviDurga

    I dont think that you need to know mandarin for a successful employment here if the employer is a globalised one. However, it is also based on demand-supply mechanism, (the S'pore job market revolves around the global economy, being a small country) So when there are lot of jobs available for you to take they wont care whether you know mandarin or any dialect. But now the arrow is in a downward trend with lay offs announced/in the brink , by many of the Global giants and it is expected that the downward curve will take a deep plunge in the first Q of 2009 which is a very sad news. Many companies have frozen the intake until further notice even though the headcount is low.
    They require a dialect if the company you have applied is dealing with local clients(public) or China Market. Also in the service industry wherever you need interaction with the public they require a person with the knowledge of local dialect like Mandarin/Malay/Tamil.

    Hope I am clear. Best of Luck.

    I apologize for delayed reply, thanks for the info... I have uploaded my cv in few websites, not getting any response probably coz of economy recession / they may prefer for PR holders, am on EP dependent.

    I am a BE graduate and have work exp in Java.. sitting idle at home is so boring that now am planning to change career itself like teaching as not getting calls. I hope I get job sson.
