What is the best site to find contract jobs in Singapore?
There is no single best site. Job boards, the national job portal, job search engines and recruitment agencies each cover part of the market. Many contract jobs are also announced only in LinkedIn posts by recruiters, which is the part Freelance Radar covers.
Where do recruitment agencies post contract jobs?
Agencies advertise on job boards, on MyCareersFuture and on their own sites, and their recruiters very often announce new contracts in LinkedIn posts, sometimes before or instead of a formal job ad.
How do I find government contract jobs in Singapore?
Ministries and statutory boards hire contractors through recruitment agencies and IT vendors, often on 12 month terms. Their recruiters regularly post these roles on LinkedIn, sometimes stating that the role is open to Singapore citizens only.
