Is it better to just submit application for only one role? Or can you apply for multiple since maybe another unit will take you? Or if one is unsuccessful means all will be the same

submit all lah, every role got 100+ applicants, only if u are really lucky HR will click into your resume and if ur profile fits they will call u. Many times they dont even click into ur resume

avg performer perf bonus is about 1.5 mths. one of the lowest in civil service. but they will convince you that MINDEF pays above market avg.

recently, someone said all civil servants have at least 5% increment to beat inflation. all i can say is take this info with a pinch of salt.

Civil service is known for stability and not for pay. Want pay then go private

Just curious. If working as operations related DXO with access to classified information, will you still need to do reservice?
Eg. Intel unit but non uniform

obviously u are not from mindef. "generally"lol. MINDEF increment is aligned with PSD which is similar across public sector. MINDEF internal performance merit adjustment is on a different level from other public sector. Last year alone, do u think with the two increment, it is only worth $200? Even for non degree track DXO will not be that.

Week 0: Submit application

Week 2: Contacted by unit for a written assessment and interview

Week 3: Written assessment and interview. On the same day, unit asked me to go for a unit preview

Week 4: Unit preview in the morning. In the afternoon, HR called to ask if I was keen. Thereafter, I submitted G50 and went for security vetting.

Week 10/11: Offer came after I passed my security clearance.

There was someone who said this, but I would think that it also depends on the role applied for since it will determine the clearance needed etc.

Didn't meet anyone. Was told my application is "still processing". My feeling is they are probably consolidating all the rejects then one shot send rejection emails.

They gather candidates per batch so any acceptance/rejections is via batch as well. It depends on how the interviewer talked during your interview, whether they really keen to have you or not.
