op here, i did. waiting to hear back and i’m still applying as i go along. As for traineeship, not much luck there because theres little-to-no traineeships now, at least for the roles i’m interested in :/

Would you take up a traineeship (if given a chance and its something you r interested in) while waiting?

Just my two cents' worth here - it's likely to be a long wait due to the many stages of tests, interview and security clearance checks so better have a plan B at the same time that you're waiting. That way you will still have something to fall back on in case you don't succeed in this application. No point losing hope waiting and watching the weeks pass.

Definitely! Wouldnt want to put all my eggs into one basket, and i’m kind of expecting to be rejected haha

Female, local bachelors degree, has prior working experience

Then sounds fair. Good luck!

Hi guys, could I check if I need to declare my shares in PUBLIC LISTED companies under the “local or foreign Investments/Assets” part of the G50 form? Fresh grad here so I’m not really familiar with the protocols. Thanks!

Has anyone received an email thats supposedly we get within 7 days since early last week?

For G50 form on ns.sg, anyone know if giving IC no. of referee is compulsory? Or can just select the "---------" option haha. Abit awk to ask for their IC lol not like I'm super close to them.

Anyone went to make their staff pass yet? What is the process like? Do I have to be formally dressed?

Hello, has anyone received any news after attending the SID test? If yes, approx how long was that?

Thanks in advance~

U havent receive the email too? Im also waiting for it..
Hopefully its held up due to wfh amid this rising cases..

Yes applied and submitted some forms that’s all

How long did they take to get back after asking you to submit your documents and the job preference form? Thanks

Anyone knows how to tell what Cat of clearance by DXO role is? If no need take polygraph test, is it Cat 2/2A?

What can be expected after the SID test?

Abt a few days after the application for me.

I see. It’s been a week since I submitted them. Not sure if that means I wasn’t shortlisted

Anyone signed contract w Mindef recently? How long did ur background/G50 check after the verbal offer take? HR told me 4-6 weeks but I find it hard to believe since the ministry is known for their long checks.

I've heard that for some cases it may take up to 3 mths.

How long have you been waiting?

Ah ok thanks. Then do y’all know if I need to list down even my past part-time contract jobs in F&B in the G50? I can provide info for the time period/company but seriously have no way to trace the contact details and even the name of my supervisor lol.

Are there anyone else who are still waiting for the clearance/ official offer for >1 month?

If me and my spouse work part-time for CIA, do I need to declare? I don't think Mindef is able to find out. As you know, housing costs, GST rising very fast and we are not on ministers level salary so there isn't any dignity in it.

Other posters are saying it could take up to 3 months, so could take a while more for you.
I’m also still waiting on my clearance atm

informed being selected by hiring manager after unit preview by HR.
after about 1 week still pending medical declaration and photo taking instruction.
will be delayed due to current covid restrictions.
anyone in the same situation?
.

Has yours been > 1 month?

nope i think around 3 weeks for me

Waiting…
 

Has anyone been invited for first interview? How long did it took from submission of document to first interview?

goodness the number of times this has been asked.

no one knows because every case is different, if it comes it comes, if it doesn't then too bad!

u need to do psychometric test first btw.

Agreed..Plus I don't think the timeline shown on the recruitment is reliable..Seems that the actual sequence of stages is somewhat different and can expect quite a lengthy wait..Just make sure you have your Plan B concurrently whilst waiting since your time is the risk.

Risking time and and other opportunities that is...

Just an update, whoever went for SID tests, i already received the email for further test. Please dont reveal specifically the process n the tests we took, might not be the same as dxo applicants and still fall under osa.

May I know when you submitted your application, please? Thanks

sid is also dxo?
