1) May I know how long the whole recruitment process is, assuming a successful interview?
2) I see from previous posts, there's a verbal offer and then something called a G50. From what I've read, I can take those as indications of a higher likelihood of entry also? The posts seem to have 2 differing takes, hence my qn.
3) What is the average pay? I'm 2nd upper, political science grad if this matters. Around 4.5 I hope?
4) What is the culture like in the DIS? Is it still very regimental and difficult bosses? My bf tells me that most officers are aloof and think they are know-alls, with only a few exceptions LOL. But then again, my brother says HQ people tend to be nicer. So, what's it like?
Thanks in advance !!
The time norm from interview to formal written offer appears to be 2 - 3 months.

Pay depends on qualification and experience.

The officers tend to be very polite and nice to ladies. Ladies being the rare gender.

If you join, you are likely to find another bf.
