At this point, I wouldn't even mind requesting for an Internship.

And if more information matters, I graduate in Cyber Security & Forensics though IT security is my stronger suit. I also hold professional certs from EC-Council too as those were the additional modules in my course.

Appreciate any helpful replies.

No harm trying. Your skills are in hot demand now.

Anyone went campus interviews and got their offer / still waiting?

I received an offer for DSTA merit scholarship, 3 years sponsorship but bond capped at 2 years. Seems that people are saying if you join DSTA, your skills will be nontransferrable but that is mainly for the engineering side/roles. I am studying data science so does it seem reasonable to say that these concerns will not be there for me since data science done at dsta could be more outwards-transferrable than engineering? Also I know you obviously will get nowhere near FAANG renumeration, but is it even less than the median 5k starting for say, nus biz analytics?

Any opinions on joining DSTA system management?

Anybody applied for procurement this year and cleared the security check yet?

Hi, may I know why you said the skills is non transferrable for engineering side/roles if you are jumping to the new company given that both the companies belong to the same industry?

What is the typical career progression for procurement executive? i.e how long does it take to promote to the next position? And how are the increments in salary?
