To work in Singapore, you need an employer (a clinic, private or govt hospital), who can hire you and sponsor your work visa. You can apply online by visiting various job portals or directly by visiting respective hospitals or nursing homes websites. It's a matter of demand n supply, and more than 60% of nurses in Singapore are foreigners. If your luck n experience matches then you may get a call from the employer. What's your nationality? Here, 99% foreign nurses are either from Philippines, Malaysia or India(few from Sri Lanka as well) apart from local Chinese or Malay or Indian. Good luck.

Definitely there is a better chance to come here and search a job as the possibility of getting interview is realistically much higher. But you may try to stay at least 1 month to see any response. You can even go walkin interview if any openings in clinics. If you go through an agency, make sure don't pay anything as many fake agencies are mushrooming here to cheat foreigners. Good luck
