Can I check i've applied for DXO in Jan and the hiring unit called me on May 2023.
Submitted documents on Jun 2023
Submitted Medical clearance on Jul 2023

Does this mean that I am selected already? They only email me that they noted on my expected salary and documents shortlisted.

The waiting process is so scary haha
wa! means your interview was in May? that's such a long time from your date of application oh my hahaha. But yes usually when they ask you submit documents and medical clearance is a good sign...i think next step should be a call from hr with a verbal offer then security clearance le. Hopefully all goes well!

I think your patience has been overextended already HAHA! But the clearance stage will take even more time 1~3 month (depends) before the official signing so jiayou :)

This situation that you mention very likely can be from the reference check portion between MINDEF MHRD and your current HR. I do feel that you have no issues landing an interview, the best thing you can do now is to apply for more job openings with other ministries and statsboard to get more interviews to secure something. All the best, don’t give up. There are many other ministries that is worth exploring.
Thanks for your encouragement.

I came from pte, no background in public sector.
No issues with my employment history/security clearance (I’m confident). All trusted people are given as referees.

I would say this is a politics btw MHRD and my current dept that is out of my control.

just go and apply Service Delivery Division (SDD), one of the newest and useless division to waste taxpayer money. They set up this division to enhance user experience, their manager role is to top up coffee/tea sachet in pantry, office renovation, ask DSTA for IT support, etc. a jiak liao bee department but always act busy

List some pros and cons for you:

Pros: free uni, many choices available incl overseas (if you get it), get paid or allowance while studying

Cons: sign on for up to 6 years, after which if you don't want to stay in SAF, you might have issues finding jobs paying similarly outside. Also, sign-on means regimental lifestyle for 6 years. Not for everyone.

Does the rank also determine how long your vetting/clearance take? I'm pretty sure I'm DX6 or something becos of my education

i would think so... usually higher ups would have access to more confidential materials too i suppose? if you are of that rank, i assume you would have more history and background checks for them to conduct also! what position are they offering you btw? SM? AD? DD? :D

sweeping statement wey dey!

Unregistered 24-07-2023 11:21 AM
Hope you realize that saying every DXO is useless is like saying every employee is useless. DXOs cover every job scope that is non-uniform in MINDEF, and that is A LOT of jobs.

Are there freeloader DXO jobs? Sure, same as all other companies.
Are there challenging and meaningful DXO jobs? Yes.

fresh grad should be within 4-4.4 range (which is considerably higher than most stat boards, starting at 3.3-3.7)

how come 6 YOE they offer u 4.5k AM only? did they lowball you?
as for your friend joining as mgr at 6.5, i don't doubt that? the ceiling is quite high for that level, with appropriate YOE i think possible...
