Quoting CCS:"What is the point behind this question?"

If you're from these companies and hoping to join GovTech for $ then you need to know

1) GovTech salary is taxpayer moneys.
2) Tech industry salaries are inflated. There's a reason why bubble is bursting.

Can join other tech companies that are still hiring. e.g. ByteDance. Pretty sure they can dangle the cash, but how sustainable, no one knows.

My first interview with the manager is scheduled but should i still attend? Don't want to waste my time in case they are fixated on the quiz results.

They will use it to low ball u, if they do offer u.

Hi, may I ask for 2-year direct contract with govtech, will the 13mth aws be rebased into your base salary? Saw some people mention that you will get the backpay and rebase only after confirmation (1 year).

it depends... most fresh grads non TAP start at 1 year contract. depending on your team, i heard some mid-careers immediately perm estab upon joining with 6 mth probation, others given 1+1 contract then change to perm, others 1 yr contract on a rolling basis.

wanna give my experience interviewing at govtech as dba.

first round with HR
candidate self-assessment form, have to rate your own competencies and justify why.
1h agile test - covers agile, kanban, scrum concepts. would say 30%-40% are conceptual, the rest are situational. Will give you a situation on the concepts, then ask you what should be the right choice.
second round with interviewer - 1 week after first round
case study given 1 hour before the interview timing. interview about 40mins, first 30 mins about your own experience, interviewer will drill down into details about your experience. last 10 minutes about case study, freeflow dont have to follow the questions.
Successful interview notification
Verbal Offer
Official offer

all in all about 5 weeks in total. turnaround time for each stage is about 1 week, first apply -> first round -> interview -> successful interview etc
