Talent B said she is staying too far from the working place and demanded for transport allowances or else she will not consider the job.

Talent C said his previous salary was SGD 6,000 and was asking for the same amount of money.

Talent D asked for a team of junior staff to assist him, because he do have assistants in his previous company. When Mr. Lim told him the company can’t afford to hire so many people. He said “Thanks for your time, i will give it a pass.”

Talent E asked for 21 days annual leave because her previous company offered her 21 days annual leave. When Mr. Lim told her, he can’t offered her 21 days annual leave but the successful candidate can take unpaid leave. Then she said she will reconsider the job.

Talent F demanded for a higher salary, after some discussion the company decided to pay her SGD 3,600 but then she was asking for 1 week notice for termination with a reason,” I will work on the job temporarily while waiting for a better job opportunity.”

Mr.Lim sighed saying now is economic crisis and pandemic, but the young talents are not hungry for a job. Many are not willing to be humble and not willing to suffer. They prefer to work smart than hard unlike our older generation.
