Regardless of the Ministry in question, the salary range depends almost entirely on your university and academic performance. Absolute top-tier universities like Harvard, MIT, Oxford, etc., will command the highest starting pay (3.8k to- 4k). Local universities like NUS and NTU come in second (3.5k to 3.8k). Reasonably high-ranking foreign universities like the University of Tokyo will come in third (3.2k to 3.5k). Fourth place are middle-ranking foreign universities like the University of Queensland (2.5k to 3.2k). Fifth place is everyone else, including private universities like SIM (2.1k to 2.5k).
Things like volunteering and CCAs are only taken into account for actually getting you the interview and later the job. It does not affect your pay. |
thanks for the detailed responses, the discrimination is really real in this case. I believe the figures you quote is for no prior experience, how about for relevant work experience but grad recently, would the increment be in terms of few hundred dollars above the quoted figures as indicated?
when talking about honours system in local uni, does having a higher honours place one in another band altogether or just increment from base pay (say for MX13 its 3000 base pay for local uni), but for second lower, second upper, first it will be $100, $200, $300 extra/on top for example?
