Hmm consider carefully. Might not be wise to let the stat board wait too long.

Well I was given 2 weeks to mull over it. So if SPF were to get back within these 2 weeks it would be great. Not sure whether I can call to get a firm indication if I get no news in 2 weeks' time.

I received my offer 5 weeks after the final interview.

For your case, they did give a verbal confirmation 2 weeks after your final interview, right? Otherwise, 5 weeks of wait after the final interview is rather long...

Hm did you mean final signing of contract after medical and stuff?

How long was it before they gave you strong indication that you actually passed the interview?

I mean... if I were to fail the medical I probably wouldn't get through the stat board offer as well...

Nope, no verbal confirmation was given after 2 weeks. I did, however, receive an SMS 2 weeks later saying that they are sending my appointment for approval. But IMO, I don't think that counts as a solid indicator that I stand a high chance of getting the job. Maybe I'm too dense to catch the hint. My only strong indication is when I actually received the letter of appointment lol.

I'm going to sign the contract this week (6th week). No instructions were given to me to do my medical yet.



off topic: is there any way to tell one unregistered user from the others?

Hmm I tink sending approval really just means you have been selected interview. My other stat board offer was made right after my contract was approved too. You don't seek approval for anything else than the contract. Ah well... can only hope.

Hi Chesed,

You didn't have to go for medical checkup? Are you from public sector previously?

Nope I am a fresh graduate.

I just recently went for the medical checkup. I am only informed to go to the medical checkup after I signed the contract.

Hi, can anyone shed light of the training process for HASE? I read on the MHA website that training include a Home Team Basic Course and I'm wondering if executives have to undergo physical training too like those that the police officers undergo.
