Skills mismatch in Singapore
Meanwhile, the report further found that only 14% of Singaporean employees feel their current job matches their skills and aspirations very or perfectly well.
Lower-wage earners in the city-state are also more likely to say that their current job
does not align with their skills and aspirations, according to the report.
This mismatch between job roles and employee skills and aspirations could be connected to the broader challenges faced by Singaporeans in finding a satisfying job," said Jobstreet and Jobsdb by SEEK in its media release.
According to the report, 57% of Singaporeans feel that it is now more challenging to find a job that
matches their skills and preferences than they first entered the workforce.
In fact, 53% of Singaporeans said finding the right job is just as hard as looking for the right long-term partner, while 27% say it's much more difficult.
