OVER 15,000 jobseekers handed in applications to Resorts World at Sentosa (RWS) during the four-day Career 2009 and Education 2009 fair as of yesterday afternoon.
At stake? More than 800 jobs at the Sentosa integrated resort, of which about 400 were for game-table dealing croupiers.
Also up for grabs were 400 full- and part-time Positions in the Universal Studios theme park opening in the resort.
RWS was one of 400 employers at the fair in Suntec Convention Centre that started last Thursday. About 15,000 jobs were available at the fair, which 400,000 people attended in its first three days. RWS said that it would hire 10,000 people when the resort opens early next year. It will be ramping up recruitment in the middle of this year. -- MY PAPER

The article mention 15000 jobseekers, not 15000 foreginers.

I was at the career fair with my son and what I saw were lines of Singaporeans applying for work, i dont even get to see even a single indian foreginer in the queue.

so what make you think those 15000 are foreginers?

Are you sure you were there with your son? My neighbour friends told me that they were so many foreigners from philipines, Mynmar, China, Vietnam and especially from Malaysia queuing for the job despites that they know how desperate singaporean wanted the job badly.

Unfortunately the queue says it all, foreigner dont care about singaporean well being or if the job open for singaporean only.

I was there.

The HR guy I spoke to informed that croupier positions are most likely to go to non singaporeans because they have a policy that croupiers family and immediate relatives are barred from patronising the casino during the period of employment.

Very troublesome to enforce this ploicy so they rather employ foreigners for this position.

They asked me to apply for the theme park instead.

They have positions open for cleaners, entertainers, ushers, ticket sellers :oIo:
