Singapore's job market is served by a well-developed digital ecosystem of job boards — anchored by the government's MyCareersFuture portal (which captures FCF-mandated advertising), the dominant Southeast Asian job board JobStreet, LinkedIn for professional roles, and increasingly specialist platforms for technology and finance. Understanding which boards to use for your sector accelerates your search significantly.
MyCareersFuture (careers.gov.sg) — the government portal
MyCareersFuture is Singapore's national jobs portal operated by Workforce Singapore and GovTech. It occupies a unique position: because the Fair Consideration Framework (FCF) requires employers to advertise most roles on MyCareersFuture for at least 14 days before filing EP applications, it contains the most legally comprehensive record of Singapore job vacancies. Key features:
- Free for job seekers — create a profile and apply directly
- Many listings include posted salary ranges — valuable market data
- Government and public sector roles prominently listed
- Strong for mid-market, government-linked company, and public sector roles
JobStreet Singapore (jobstreet.com.sg) — dominant regional board
JobStreet is Southeast Asia's largest job platform — owned by SEEK (the same company that operates SEEK.com.au). Strong coverage across all sectors, particularly for mid-market, operations, and non-PMET roles. Complement with MyCareersFuture for complete coverage.
LinkedIn Singapore — essential for PMET and tech roles
LinkedIn is the most important platform for mid-to-senior professional roles in Singapore. Key Singapore LinkedIn strategies:
- Set location to "Singapore" and enable "Open to Work" (private mode for employed professionals)
- Use LinkedIn Easy Apply for direct applications to MNCs
- Follow company pages of target employers — Singapore MNC talent teams monitor follower engagement
