Re: Singapore Salary to Match £60k in China?

If you compare Tianjin and Singapore, the equivalent salary would be S$230,000 a year. www.numbeo.com

Re: applying for the same position on multiple sites

I applied to my current school (which I have not yet arrived at due to Covid) through Schrole, but I actually interviewed and got the job at Search.

There is nothing past tense about this. It is still very much ongoing. I am still stuck in one country, trying to get to my new school in another country. I can think of three others doing the same.

Re: thai police clearance cert

That's sounds more like it. They will only issue one police check a day so I had to go back twice. The second one was for an application for certification.

I find its better to have copies of police reports from every country I've worked in regardless of whether my new school requires it. Maybe I'm just a paperwork hoarder.

Re: thai police clearance cert

Brillo, just to clarify, were you applying for a police report in Thai or an English one for those leaving the country? I was at the central police station in Pathum Wan at the beginning of July and needed all the paperwork. The only difference with the previous time I went in June was they had set up an electronic finger print scanner. However, it didn't work, so we had to the black ink method.
