How do you find a Pharmaceutical/Biotech job in Singapore? I am currently living in the United States and would like to work in Singapore. Can anyone tell me how to find a job there from here? I think it would be a great experience. A growing economy, a different culture, and a new experience. Can anyone give me advice on job searching there? Also, what is it like to live there as an American?

I posted a question regarding Pharmaceutical & Biotech jobs in Australia, however, I was told that most of those jobs MOVED TO SINGAPORE.... I wanted to get an idea of how the job market is right now in Singapore. Right now in the US things are pretty bad as far as the economy goes. And it is really difficult to find a job right now. I have experience in the Pharmaceutical and Biotech industry. I'd like to know how is the job market in Singapore at this time? Specifically in the Pharmaceutical and Biotech industry?

My fellow Americans, if you look around and ask people why they are unemployed, they'll say there are no more jobs here in America. But I don't get it. Obama created like over 3 million jobs in the four years he's been President (and this is saying a lot because I don't normally support Obama's policies). We have all these newly created jobs that are hiring and open for everyone, but people are saying there aren't any left. Why is that?

I am a graduating PhD in cell biology who has been trained in yeast genetics. I currently have a very hard choice to make. I have been offered postdoctoral positions at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, The Scripps Research Institute, and Harvard Medical School. All three deal with the same type of work I am doing now, however Harvard is partially dealing with mammalian systems. If I eventually want to get a biotech job in the future, where would be the best place for me to go? Please help with any experiences you may have had.

I just graduated with a BS in biology. I am looking for a job at biotech companies but most positions require either MS or many years of experience.
