Is networking important when applying for high paying jobs?

[Banned User]

Would you refer your friend over?

I did it twice

One MIA after letter offer was offered.  I had to call the HR to say job is rejected.  Made me look very bad that my friend can't even tell the HR she is rejecting the job

One quit after probation and a lot of attitude problems

Now I scared liao.

I have no sg friend to refer. This is why it's always a  foreigner that referred moi. I feel sorry for you that you encountered sinkies who fly kites after you referred  them that role to HR.  Sadly sinkie pwn sinkie runs deep.

I nv actually refer fren before. At most when received internal circular of a vacancy, I will fwd the link to fren

My frens did the same for me too


I only rmb there was one time my fren and I were working part time at retail then I rejected his suggestion to rope another fren in cos that fren thou is a nice guy but he's always late haha

[Aisingioro]

people like me who no friend no network, super 吃亏 at work no matter at what level...

negative network, negative networth

[Arctic]

negative network, negative networth

Negative negative become positive?

[Aisingioro]

Negative negative become positive?

not in his case

[Philipkee]

Negative negative become positive?

Yes

I know less criminals (negative network), I am of less use to them (negative networth) and I am poorer cos I lack the means to earn money illegally

Which is a positive

Networking just get chiu to the door of the company to meet the hirer.

Isn't high pay based on roles & responsibility? Moi can't see the link 

At least now TS hv understanding one needs to hv due diligence in making recommendation 

[encourageSome1]

But if you got opportunities due to networking, isn't that cronyism based on what people say?

If u one of or are e best candidate and u got chosen then it is not

If u not best then that is cronyism

I know less criminals (negative network), I am of less use to them (negative networth) and I am poorer cos I lack the means to earn money illegally

Which is a positive

Because it was old people estate. Then at that time many people say she worked hard. Coz need to fight strong oppo.

Now i dont know.

Anyway it shows its impt to 趁热打铁.

U see her, wang lei all these.

In some ways she has what it takes to bring her to this level. But only this level nia. And its also whether the boss sees u zai or not. 伯乐与千里马

To other bosses u may be nth, may even be shit. But if ur boss likes u, even if ure shit he will also say u are diamond.

She failed to win the hearts of lhl, lw and her corporate bosses.

If she nv marry her hubby i think she mid level manager ba, unless she meets her 伯乐.

In this case her bo le is her husband who also stands to gain

She is also zai at willing to go all out to seize all her chances.

One problem with most sinkies and people in general is we dont do such things to please people and seize chances.

Of course the capability must be there first la
