Hi guys!

I'm currently exploring the possibility of joining the Commercial Affairs Department as a Commercial Affairs Officer (CAO). I would like to know more about the career progression and pay structure of a CAO. (e.g. how is the pay rise like each year. Is there a point where most people's pay 'freezes' and if there is where that might be (assuming regular work performance, i'm not referring to an extraordinary performer or a scholar)...)

I apologize for sounding so clueless, but I've tried searching online and I can't seem to find much info about it. Would really appreciate if anyone can offer some advice or thoughts!

To offer a little background abt myself: I'm studying acct in a local uni and am contemplating whether I should enter commercial firms (e.g. audit) or head to the govt sector.

Thanks in advance!
