I am a second-upper honors student from NUS. One of the majors from the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. I graduated in 2018.

My experience with Public Service is this:

SB1 (First Job): application in end Jan 2018 -> called for interview end of March -> first F2F interview in mid march -> 2nd F2F interview in end march -> verbal offer the next day -> contract signing 1 month later.

I was in SB1 for 1.5 years. Went to Ministry H because I thought I could escape the toxic culture of SB1 and learn new things. But I was wrong lor.

Min H: Applied in mid Aug -> 1 F2F interview in october + written test -> mid-October G50 form comes + reference check -> Dec start work.

Just to ask ... how many applications do you all make on careers@gov before securing an offer? For my first job right, I remember making less than 20 applications. But my second job, I remember sending out 160 applications lol.
