typical civil service pay ranging from 3 - 4ish. Most roles pay the in that range depending on degree class. First class seems be getting slightly over 4 these days, while a 3rd class could be around 3.3-3.6ish for an autonomous uni's degree, while a degree from SIM is worth 2.7-3ish?

Also to an earlier question:

I think MINDEF differentiates pass and 3rd class. Each increment in a degree class seems be around $150 which is pretty standard across civil service.


Defence has a little higher budget, so it can pay higher than compared to rest of civil service on average.
