I received an email that I was shortlisted, pending employment clearance. Anyone else also received the same email?

I receive a rejection despite both communicating and coding actively. I don't understand what they are looking for if that's the case.

u dodged a bullet

when DBS went down, i saw a lot of those posts on r/singapore reddit, many people in that post said that DBS backend is full of indian devs and its handled by DBS india not DBS SG

i got a few friends in the program and they also told me a lot of bad experiences

also i checked my linkedin premium search for "Graduate associate (SEED)" role, linkedin tells me that from 2021 to 2023 jan, about 60-70%+ people with that title moved on to different jobs after 2 years whereas other roles left after 1 year.

means that on average, people work in dbs 1-2 years then leave. big red flag imo.

As much as people like to diss on seed program. It is one of the better paying jobs with a 80k+ annual compensation for fresh grads in the current tech winter. Hearsay due to excess supply they can cherry pick big 3 CS grads now instead of run of the mill non tech grads/private U before Q3 2022.
