SIA AO really means doing administration, i.e. they will rotate you among different departments doing largely administrative matters. Joining as AO means that you will be jack of all trades, i.e. easy to find work outisde. But the downside is no pay premium as there is no special skillset or experience
I see. That's a pretty good explanation. So the IT exec is better to acquire a special skillset and experience. Which means, better in long term?
