Hello, I'm from India however, currently residing in Malaysia & have work experience of 7 years into banking and customer service. I've worked with Amazon, American Express, IBM & Convergys and worked in different profiles - Process Specialist, Process/Product trainer, Fraud Analyst, & Subject Matter Expert. My interest is not limited to these roles, I'm a quick learner, & willing to accept new challenges & explore new roles. Please help me find a suitable job in Kuala Lumpur.
Thanks in advance.

On applications do mention your visa status. If your spouse is Malaysian make this clear that you either already have or could obtain permission to work.

Check the Jobs section at the top of this website to see if there are any offers currently matching your experience.

PS - I see that American Express is hiring in Malaysia at the moment.

Sorry but really have to ask after 7 years in Malaysia and you havent got a network to get a job? Getting jobs online in Malaysia isnt for expats once you are here or in a specialised field that recruits that way. And even in those  the best way is word of mouth and who you know. Seriously do some networking!

Just don't overstay your current visa as it will cause problems if you get a job offer. i.e. you will be blacklisted and deported.

In addition, if you do get a job offer, you have to leave Malaysia while the application is being processed and enter on a special Visa with Reference (VDR)

Do remember to concentrate on your niche skills, because if a Malaysian can do the job, then immigration will not approve a work permit.
