The Big Four firms are outbidding small and medium-sized practices (SMPs) for accountancy graduates, said industry players.

Trying to hire fresh grads “has become a futile exercise”, said Robert Yam, managing director of Robert Yam & Co. The firm offers a monthly starting salary of up to S$3,300, but has not been able to hire local graduates in the past year.

$3300 is very low pay.
most IT and engineering salaries start from $4000 to $5000.

glorify own dirty laundry using state resources til became national affair

&

every year declare on leave on time except year of covid

Accountancy follow the path if engineering?
Government encourages local to take up engineering courses but companies hire mainly foreign engineers and hence salary of engineers being suppressed.

The same thing happens to accountants now.

The whole account department of Shell moves to india. One of my friends told me that all his colleagues remain jobless since.
