No need technical skills, most of the work is "staffing" and paperwork.

The only technical skills you need is powerpoint skills.

When the person said "staffing", alr obvious that they're either employee or civil servant.

I just finished the interview on Monday and am currently waiting for the HR to call back this Friday. I also have a friend from NTU who recently rejected the offer when they sent him the offer letter last Friday.

The base pay apparently is 5k with 13th month Government bonus and 4 months performance bonus. 18 days of leave.

Not sure if everyone will receive the same pay though after reading through the previos old comments here.

Hope you got the offer. How was the interview? Any questions that caught you off guard? It'd be great if you could share more info regarding the interview process!!! Thank you

hahaha thanks! I hope so too :,) The interview was overall good and they seemed impressed? The interview will consist of the first part which is your introduction statement (1min length is the best! best to type it out on a word document and just read from there)

Next, will be your slides sharing on Questions 1 and 2, to be completed in 10mins. Can ensure your slides have more pictures and few words to help engage the audience better and stand out from the other interns who just throw in alot of content into their slides boring the viewers as a result.

Finally, is Q and A session with the directors where they will ask you technical questions on the assignment mainly Question 2 and some other questions to see how you are as a person.

Example Questions they asked:
1) What are your strengths and weaknesses and why do u think they will apply here in CSA?
2) Which division are you keen on entering and explain the steps you took to prepare for this?
3)Why government sector and not private sector?
4) Why do we not need a firewall in your Q2 implementation?
5) Is a VPN necessary as well for a typical enterprise architecture?
6) Why the CSDP program?


Yep! Those were all the main questions they asked haha and nope they didn't really catch me off guard as the questions they asked were very standard in my opinion haha. Hope this helps!
