Currently I'm a Year 4 undergrad and my expected graduation date should be in May 2014. Would it be a little kiasu to start applying to DSTA as their application process take quite long as mentioned by several forumers.

Last but not least, what is the pay scale of IDA for fresh grad? Does she pay the same amount as DSTA? And how's the prospect between working in IDA and DSTA?
IDA seem more like a consultant role and DSTA seems like a more technical role.
