Advanced Placement Scheme (APS)
Need Help Now? Meet Our APS Fast-Track
Waiting weeks for a helper isn’t always an option. APS allows eligible helpers to be interviewed and deployed much faster than traditional overseas hiring.
Why Choose APS
What Is The Advanced Placement Scheme (APS)?
Normally, hiring a helper from overseas involves waiting for documentation and travel arrangements. Under the Advanced Placement Scheme (APS), JPB is authorised to bring experienced helpers into Singapore before they are matched with an employer.
These helpers stay in Singapore and are available for interview, allowing families to hire and deploy suitable candidates much faster.
