Contract from ST elect themselves or out-source contract ?

Salary adjustment if any and amount depends on your performance during contract.

For good performer, 5-10% typically.

After 2 weeks, I intended to make a follow-up and the outcome was the hiring manager has not made any decision on my job application. Besides that, the HR asked me to wait for another 1-2 weeks and even told me that if there's any job offer outside just take it. (FYI, I'm a fresh grad)
Recently, the job adver was opened again for hiring on their official portal.

In this case, can anyone tell me what r the chances of landing this job?

There's probably a second round interview if they're gonna offer. I went for the first round and thought I did badly coz I basically anyhow answered the questions. Was quite surprised that they called me up for a 2nd interview around 2 to 3 weeks after the first interview. Afterwards they called me like 3 times a week telling me they gonna offer in a week's time.

crap company that pays top dollar for senior management and peanuts to pple actually doing all the work.

National day VIP visit, staff cannot walk pass main entrance but instead make detour go thru basement carpark to get to cafeteria. That's how they view their employees. jian bu de ren.

new policy is as good as bye bye to promotion. Min B grade for 3 consecutive yrs before eligible to be considered for promotion. If 3rd yr you kena C+, reset everything.

As good as saying, in the dept either the same few always got B(and promote) the rest eat grass, or, rotate the B and all forget about promotion.

FoS new policy.

oh 1st time heard of this requirement. Does it apply throughout the whole ST Engineering group or only applicable to ST Electronic ?


From Aerospace

STE is basically a retirement house for a lot of government esp SAF people. Many ex-regulars come in keeping their fat pay packages as directors or vps and it's a tightly knitted gentlemen's club.

There are many long serving staff who joined them for many years starting from junior levels and they usually get stucked as managers as the old boy's club only allows in people from the same background. Normal people will never get anything beyond senior manager rank no matter how good your performance is.

How many months pb for average performers?
