I hope you are aware about the new rule that if a position has salary for less than $12000/mo, the company must advertise this to the government job portal and only after proving that no Singaporean is qualified for the job, they can give offer to a foreigner.

Also, regardless to the above rule, as it was mentioned that if a company already has high number of foreign employees, getting new one would be impossible.

Good luck but you need to make now contingency plans if you plan to stay in Singapore.

Companies under 25 employees are exempt from this.
