Career Decisions

I had some friends asking what career to pursue or switch to in view of the current economic downturn. I found the MOM site

http://app.careercompass.gov.sg/Front/Home.aspx

to be useful to narrow down the options for the Singapore context.

It covers for each sector :

Sector Overview
Medium Term Sector Outlook
Information on Employers in the Sector
Pipeline of New Investments and Jobs
Occupational Listings
Other Information

and for each occupation

Occupation Vitals
Nature of the Work
Working Conditions
Qualifications, Training and Advancement
Personal Characteristics & Core
Job Outlook
Earnings
