I wouldn't be so quick to state that its relatively simple to get a job in the civil service. Some of the more sought after positions, i.e. economist scheme (economist with
MTI), intelligence service (
ISD), legal service (MinLaw), foreign service (MFA) have very stringent recruitment criteria and pay handsomely.
-A fresh grad (gd honours, with
NS) entering the intelligence service would likely draw a starting pay close to 4.5k, give and take 1k, if not mistaken.
-An economist (masters degree, with
NS) would likely be drawing anything from 4.5k- 5k or possibly even more.
And don't even start on the elite Admin Service and their feeder MA scheme....
