Ideal candidate? Is judged by quality of portfolio and relevant experience.
Type of growth? Going to integrated branding agency (used to be more print based), team is good now, we just need to replace a senior that is leaving. Looking at maybe max 20 peeps in the future.
office culture and environment. One large open space, shared by designers, project managers and management, no separate offices
What type of hours are you regularly working. very balanced, usually 9.30-6.30, overtime only when really necessary (this is quite unusual in s'pore). We'd like people to actually be there during office hours since there's a lot of client calls and meetings/briefings
What types of recreational activities are there in the area? not sure what you're into. For me, there's lots of bars and clubs in the area :)
Positives of living in singapore? extrememly low taxes, convenience, safety. the negatives? if you're used to europe/US, it can be a bit boring at times. And the beer is rather expensive...
Best place to eat within walking distance? google "food in singapore", the best food in asia can be found here for very reasonable prices. there's a cantine here but we usually walk out (5-10min) to the local food stalls or sandwich bars.
