Hi have you kick the bucket already?

My parents have never been to university but are still successful entrepreneurs and am living in the lap of luxury. Please be mindful when you speak in future for your seemingly harmless words may be offensive to some.
it is a fact that 3rd class honours are hopeless. sprouting nonsense with ur own example of having SMEs offering you as a 3rd class honours, which 1st class cant even be bothered to apply. just look at the stats, how many 3rd class earn more than 1st? and u think first class people need to study all day? joker.

and for all we know, you can have your delusion all you want, but in reality your parents, because of their lack of education, are just begging on the streets trying to put food into your foul mouth

This is nonsense.. please don't listen to the poster. The starting pay is standard, with slight variation due to NS or without, honors or not etc. Definitely nothing to do with looks.

There are very limited options to leave IRAS especially if the work is very tax specific as the nature of the work is very different from private sector. Rarely people go big 4 due to the lost of work-life balance and most private sector have a certain stigma on civil servants, it is quite difficult to find decent options. It's more common to do secondment to other ministries or stat boards.

Negative interview experience
 
Had a very negative interview experience with iras.

Instead of focusing on my job experience. The interviewer kept questioning why I choose to rejoin public sector after a few years. He question all my answer after I explained that I left public sector to join private sector to gain more experience as the previous role in public sector doesn't really focus in a particular area.

When I was speaking. Hr cut me off and said they had another candidate waiting when my interview time slot was 1hr. The interview has only been going for 25mins..

Hard. With AI advancement, the likelihood of layoff only increases.

But one upside is, if you do get in you are not jobless for the time being. ;)
