Expat specific recruitment agencies?
Hi all, and welcome to my first post! gmcnaught001 from Scotland (don't hold that against me 
) here.
I have been in Singapore for two and a half years with my (same-sex) partner. I worked with one of the Big 4 accounting firms as an Audit Manager up until April 2012, at which point I quit to go travelling and then planned to take up a new job in industry as an Accountant/Finance Manager, Internal Auditor or Financial analyst.
Having returned to Singapore in November, I must admit that finding a new job has been significantly more difficult than expected. From what I have been told by recruitment agents, it isn't the strength of my CV that is keeping employers away, more the fact that I am neither Singaporean/PR.
My question is whether anybody can recommend any recruitment agencies that specialise in placing foreigners that have escaped my research? I am currently in contact with Randstad, Hays, Michael Page, Robert Walters, and also scour Headhunt and JobsDB daily.
Any words of wisdom will be much appreciated!

No words of wisdom but just best of luck (and welcome to the forum 
). Hopefully someone in Sing can advise.
