Is this offer good? Currently I am working in a MNC company named EDS, India as permanent employee. I have total 6.9 yrs of exp and a master degree holder. So based on my profile will I accept this offer.
Can any 1 tell me, will it be a decent 1 and will I go for this contractual type of employment? If yes then also please tell me about the cost of living of Singapore. I want 1 or 2 Bed Room furnished apartment, will mostly cook at home. Can you give me the details of expenditure (including - Room Rent, utility Bill, Food, Personal expenditure for a man and a woman, Fare of Bus and Train, Grocery etc for a month. Can you please give me break down of living cost? Please keep it in your mind that my wife will be with me.
