Psychometric test means u meet the min. criteria (sg citizen, right qualifications). Written test and interview means u passed the psychometric test (capable of logical thinking, no weird personality, have the right experience, skills set they are looking for). Site preview means u are suitable for the job and are among the top 3 candidates (u can ask them during site preview if u are their top choice or their reserve candidate). Security clearance and medical checkup means they want u but conditional on clearing these two. If either of these two fail means u got some criminal prob/financial prob/family prob or severe medical prob that is likely to affect your work so they won't want u in case u become a liability.

After all that. u will sign on the dotted line and it's confirmed.

Entire process can range from 3-6 months from application. In some cases even 9 months if u attend multiple interviews for different positions.

Good luck!

Hi, I was being told that I'm shortlisted for interview but I have yet to go for any test! So what does this mean???

what position did u apply for?

I guess some diploma positions no need psycho test?

Hi!

Have been reading through the thread for some time now, it actually gave me some sort of reassurance actually to know that I am in a similar situation as others

Went for psychometric test on the 08/07 and I only received a call last Friday (31/07) that I was short-listed for a panel interview on 06/08 for 2 positions, 1 of which I did not apply for. Had to submit an essay within 48 hours and I was informed that the day of interview I have another essay to write before the panel interview.

Super nervous about it now.

So really the advice to just wait when there is no news is quite true

Applied to be a DXO btw.

this is DXO thread.

Of cos you applied for DXO lah.

What position you did not apply and yet they call you?

Hi! I got the exact same offer and will be going for a panel interview on the same day. Just submitted my online essay too. All the best for the interview!

Hi! (=

I'm wondering... does MINDEF still email those who didn't pass the psychometric test to let them know? It's been over a month and I think I probably didn't do well for the test since I was so panicky that morning...

Yes they do. I received an email from them that I wasn't shortlisted. Think it took a month!

I went down for the site preview on the 29th of July and have not heard from the unit since. What does this mean? Even if I am not selected for the role, will they provide a rejection notice? Thanks a lot
