Applying for job while recovering from depression

bararara — Tue, 02 Dec 2014 13:45:27 +0800

I'm not sure if it's a taboo to mention to a job interview to disclose your medical history especially when it is something like depression. I have been under medical treatment under my psychiatrist for the past 6 months after a roller-coaster battle after i graduate from uni. Currently I'm officially jobless for 3 years after i graduate.

Me, myself and my psychiatrist both feel like that i'm mentally ready to start moving on and start looking for a job, but i'm still very worried about explaining why i was unemployed for the past 3 years, and afraid that I would be discriminated for mentioning my illness.

I'm planning to apply for entry level job in Singapore at the moment but do not know what to expect. It will be a great help if anyone could give some advice on this matter

thank you

How to apply to be a PR? in Sabah

bararara — Fri, 14 Nov 2014 11:23:22 +0800

I have been living in KK Sabah since I was 3 for the past 20+ years due to my parents work. All my family were born in Semenanjung, but we have much be living like all other KK folks, we are even voting in Sabah for KK district. My parents will be retiring soon and wanting to spend their retirement years in Sabah, but we still need passport and working permits when we go travel and back to Sabah.

I recently just finished my uni and wish to come back and work in Sabah (no longer dependant of my working parents), I'm having a hard time to have to constantly travel out of Sabah every 3 months because I'm not considered Sabahan (even when I have lived most of my life here).

Is it possible for me to apply to be a Sabahan so that I do not have to travel in n out of every 3 months as most employers here do not purposely for their west malaysian employees ( my cousin is in the same case with me, but her income allows her to travel so and she enjoys it, not me though).

Can anyone help and walk me through this, if this is possible.

Million thanks
