MINDEF DXO (All FAQ on it)

Anybody did a written test before the interview? May I know what to expect?
Thanks in advance!

Do MINDEF really call up the 2 referees required in the application form?

My JC mates are mostly doing well in professional jobs (law, medicine, banking), and they look like they have a goal in life.

I think this differs from person to person and what you yourself want out of your life/career.

I had your situation id just stay on and build my retirement nest so that I can retire worry free financially at least

I had my rejection via email after I went for interview 3 weeks ago. ( I thought high chance after interview with panel for an hour ...) Checking with you all, should I reapply immediately in dxo website if I have spotted a job position I interested in. Or wait for some time later ? How high will be my chance of getting interview if I was rejected for another job position?

You can just reapply. I was rejected previously after an interview. I reapplied the following day and was shortlisted for interview again. I will be attending the interview soon. Good luck to you 😄

How long did they shortlist again after you reapplied? Was the HR manager in the panel interview previously the one who emailed you?

I think it was within a few days. You will receive the same email asking you to arrange for the psychometric test or to inform the HR that you have sat for the test before. The HR will acknowledge and check her records if you have sat for the test. After which is to wait for the interview which will take some time. For both positions, I liaised with the same HR. Hope this helps 😊

typically how long HR will take to reply whether there is an interview arranged, after you have done the PT?

It can take days , weeks or even months. For me, is 4 months after I took PT.
