Your Employment Pass is cancelled once your employment ends, since it is tied to your specific employer, and you will generally receive a Short-Term Visit Pass to remain in Singapore temporarily while you arrange your next steps or departure. You cannot legally work in Singapore while holding only this visit pass, even if you're actively job-hunting. If you find a new employer during this window, they will need to apply for a new work pass on your behalf before you can start work.
