I was asked quite generic questions.
-Why MINDEF
-What do you know about MINDEF (recent achievements/on the news)
-Why previous work experiences in private sector, not civil
-How do you feel about OT
-Where else did you apply to

Other questions they asked had to do with the essay questions I answered for the written test. E.g. how to better improve MINDEF’s strategies in a certain area.

HR asked generic qns also like what are your greatest strengths/weakness.

Didn’t get to proceed to site visit, however.

Good luck for your interview!

Are there malay in DXO? Or does hr have a secret criteria 'must be bilingual' on their checklist to reject malay application?

The written test is made up of essay qns. 2 qns. I think the interviewers choose what qns they want to ask you. I had 1 qn related to the position and the other one was generic HR qn about strengths.

I have seen a Malay girl taking the psychometric test in the room, so probably means they did get shortlisted for test at least.

Potential interview question right here.

Wondering if anyone is still waiting to clear G50? How long does this usually take? Waiting like more than a month already... just slightly concerned if got anything wrong...
