DSTA (under Mindef)

Definitely a great place to start your career.
Good starting pay, good increment.
If you are thinking about staying for a long time, good prospects too.

Thanks for the info. I have sent in my application and is waiting for reply. Care to share current salary scheme for the diff hons class?

hoping some people working in DSTA procurement area can shed some light.

is it true that turnover rate is very high? is DSTA good for staying long term??

does land system engineer need mechanical degree people?? it seem that most needed is EEE degree???

Does DSTA accepts 2nd lower hons for both procurement and engineering positions? Is it true that procurement position starts at a lower salary than engineers?

Thanks in advance.

i am not from DSTA, but I got friend with 2nd lower from NTU got in as engineer....

one of my cousin also 2nd lower NUS , also working in there!!!

I personally also attend 2 different interview with DSTA on 2 different position in 2007 and in 2010, I also got 2nd lower NTU engineering degree.....but never get in -_-"

procurement is an "executive" position

engineer are "technical" position....


"technical" got +$300 more than "executive" for starting pay as far as i noe
