MAS for Mid Career Professionals

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.

Hi! Just wanted to get a sense of the employment timeline & process; how long does it typically take from being verbally offered a role to HR reverting on an agreeable package, and further to signing of contract? Appreciate advice from the community! Thanks

Hardly see any direct perm PS position.
As mid career, i guess majority looking for a stable job. PS offer the stability, sometime even work life balance. Contact base will be a big deterrence even if there's chance to convert.

Applied for several jobs at MAS but did not get shortlisted. Can anyone share which departments are easier to get into without relevant experience?

If your performance is not poor and your contributions are recognised, don’t see a reason why can’t convert to perm.

Depends on which title you are going for, AD and above all need relevant experience and skill set.

How is investigation work in MAS like?

What is the MX equivalent for the position of "Safe Management Enforcement Officer" at MAS?
