Should I decide to try out for a position in a Stat board, with relevant working experience, will I be able to negotiate for a competitive pay package? From the other thread about civil servant pay, I gathered that there are some people who experienced a paycut just to get a job in civil service. Is this prevalent for people trying to hop from private to public sector. At my age and with my experience, what would my rank realistically be? MX10 or MX11?
Your situation is kind of tricky. They may not give you MX10 which starts from about $6.4k. But you are also quite close to the ceiling of MX11 (about $7k) which you may hit in a few years if you don't get promoted.
