Job Needed
Mrs RB is getting very bored with being a houswife.
does anyone know of any companies needing staff for general admin/reception type duties. She is on a 5 year Dependants Pass.
She speaks very good Engliah and is a native Russian speaker

Re: Job Needed
whilst my information is admittedly dated, Lukoil used to have an office in the OCBC Centre, 65 Chulia Street in the CBD. i don't know if they're still in that location, but if anyone can use Russian speakers it would be them.

Yup, and their's is only a tiny embassy. job would have been ideal as the embassy is in Raffles Place and just around the corner from my office.
Re: Job Needed
"would have been.."? sounds to me like she still has a chance! She should keep trying (while trying for other jobs of course)

Re: Job Needed
Are you saying Mrs RB is a hotel? Or her job is a hotel? I think I'm going to stop my line of thought right there!Snaffled wrote:6 days a week? Is it a hotel?

Re: Job Needed
This 6 day a week thing in some hotels is uncivilised.

Is she interested in going (back?) to school? I'm starting back myself and at this point, looking at the work load, I have absolutely no fears of not having enough to do anymore I think there are plenty of online based programs as well as non-online available here depending on her interests, of course.
