Level 1 or 2 make not much difference.

It’s only going to L3, the chapter lead will make the call to endorse

Most bosses will look at level 3, as it’s not easy to hit level 3 without actually doing it.

This competency thingy is a good start, hopefully this will take up a substantial part of performance grading in future instead of using only boss appraisal which is like based on projects you done for the year. If agency got no “visible” project for you really is suck thumb good game. Every year C/+ also sian no morale no drive.

Interviewed for Security engineer > offer letter states AIE security > actual job title in the end is Project Manager.

Really kena scam gao gao. Hello HR… LOLOLOL

For my manager, you have to try hard to get promoted. You can demonstrate technical competency by finishing your stories quickly with good quality. Then you volunteer to help others. Can also be things from other roles under the guise of learning and trying out new things. Beyond this, you have to also take the initiative to suggest and implement improvements to the project or process. If volunteers are required for some team or tribe activity, you also go volunteer to show face. This will boost your chance for promotion. Especially at a lower grade. Basically, you need to convince your manager that you zai + got take initiative + high learning agility = can do the job at next grade. Then the show face part is to have the opportunity to meet other team lead and the director and give them a good impression. This is because, after nomination from your manager, your manager also has to discuss with the director and other team lead on who to nominate for promotion from the tribe.

Maybe because it is my first job, I think I tried too hard and now burnout already.

Sounds tough, respek your hustle. Who adviced you to do all that? Was it your manager? Did you make it known to your manager at the start that you want to be considered for promotion nomination?

So they try to promote ‘show face’ culture here? Don’t feel so good if everything do got agenda! So faked

Thank you for sharing ser

If you can do all those things above, you should be aiming for PSLP rather than just a junior level promotion, which most will receive for average performance after a year or two.

Sounds like promoting "Show face" culture, if everyone so busy to show face for Wayang, then who doing the ground works?

What's PSLP?

L3 got so hard one meh? my proj got one guy got 6x L3. two of his L3 not even his main role.

ya loh tiagong junior every year also lvl up

Seeerrrrious?? For SWEs? or all roles in general?

huh? promotion not depends on your RO only meh?

you check back few pages, I think the discussed before.. not sure how true lah

actually the competency easy lah but hit already will promote or not that is the question.

dont be naive. in any forced ranking exercise, the more help u get beyond your own RO helps

competency is just one component. not the be all end all

My understanding is that L4 onwards require external validation from outside Govtech. And since this framework is still new, while its not linked to promotion, you are expected to attain it if you are in a grade and position that requires it.

If you have any of the core at L4, most likely you are already at Grade I

grade I only need multiple 3s, none of the post require 4

good game for me, I am in a function that nobody likes

True. I am fresh grad joined as D, 1yr promoted to E, another 1yr promoted to F,
forseen another 1-2yr can promoted to G, hehe

Those poor senior with 10-20yr experience still stuck at G, H.

Means you which stuck at G and H for very long like them too?

Any advice? Did you do what the other chiong sua kia that burned out did?

Yup 2022 will be even better
sit back and enjoy the many increments hehe

How u know will be better? u mean 2% inflation increments? hehe

smoking that good **** i see. hehe

that is very lousy leh.

i join govtech as grade f as fresh grad in 2020.

every year, i was up for promotion.

now already grade h. where got slow.

Proof it pleassss, show me your name then I search in promotion list in intranet portal, hehe

This is one of the example, junior get promoted every yr, senior slow slow wait!

stop saying stupid things.

if you are in govtech, you will know why seniors get promoted slowly.

to get into higher grades requires appointment

Yes, this is correct. For those who need context on the grade vis-a-vis MX levels.

Moving from MX13 to MX11 is easy, beyond that really depends on aptitude.

D/E = MX13
F/G = MX12
H = MX11
I = MX11A
J = MX10
K = MX9 (Superscale)

seem GT title lower than Ministry, I is Senior but MX11a in Ministry is Principle already

How about compensation wise? Sama sama?

Titles don't really mean much, salary is more important.

A "manager", "head", "assistant director" can all be individual contributors with no direct reports.

It matters when you jump ship!

lol so many fake post like yours trying to stir ****. Proof it pleasss, show me your name then I search in promotion list in intranet portal, hehe

Where to search? I want kaypo too

Only last drawn salary matters. It's well known that titles in public sectors are inflated (e.g. fresh grad in MTI/MAS are called asst director, associates).
