DSTA (under Mindef)

I feel really down today because I received an email a week after my interview, informing me that I was rejected. I can't help but wonder why the director who interviewed me didn't give me a chance. It's making me question if the interview is the only thing that matters. I'm feeling frustrated and keep asking myself, "Why, why, why?"

Carry balls,carry eggs...confirm that they wont forget about you.

Its so difficult to get a job in DSTA engineering dept without having a Engineering degree... While mine is Project & Facilities Mgt, i couldnt even secure an interview with them. giving up my hope to get into DSTA

Hi, anyone has attended the on-campus interview for DSTA TGP recently? How is the interview conducted and what can one expect from the interview?

Also, is it expected to wear formal for the on-campus interview, or will smart-casual attire be fine?

Thanks alot!

Different scheme and therefore different career plans,development and
pay range.

But i heard that DSTA procurement executives are in demand and
often 'snapped up' by other Gov stat boards should they 'give up'
On DSTA.
