As a person working in a generalist dept, would recommend you to join specialized dept like IT. Reason being your notice period will only be 1 month, easier to find jobs. Mine is 3 months FML.
Contract:
"if u subsequently intend the join the employment of external organisations MAS has dealings with, required to notify HRD at least 3 mths in advance."

It's reasonable since those who intend to jump to financial sector might have insider info from regulatory perspective, hence the extended notice period. Usually applies to middle mgmt and above.

Permanent roles are for replacement. There is a headcount freeze but not a decrease in headcount. Additional headcount requirements are filled by contract or traineeship

maybe for lower levels then?
my friend joined as a full director (not deputy/assistant)

To my knowledge there is no difference between contract and perm in terms of benefits. Either they will extend contract or change you to perm based on your performance. It doesn’t make sense they let go everyone who is on contract leaving the department empty. However contract bonus Low compared to perm I think.

A colleague joined MAS under sgunited contract. I m perm. He has the same number of months for bonus as me.

They offered me until Dec 2022. So I guess 1.5years? Is it worth it to take a gamble for a contract role about conversion? Or shld try directly for perm.

Did the position you applied for has "#sgunited"? think yours is sgunited contract. sgunited are two year contracts which started late 2020. A few sgunited contract people left, hence they reopen the vacancies but the end date remain Dec 2022..
