MX are those seconded to MINDEF from other ministries.

MINDEF directly employs for DXO scheme.

Sorry i thought this was the civil service thread.

DXO FCH NUS with NS should be around 4 - 4.4k maybe? Not sure if packages would be smaller this year due to the current economic performance - may be expecting a pay cut across civil service.

If that happens, they would still offer you the 'intended' amount and take away the variable amount (about 10%).

Honestly not sure as it depends on the role and if I’m not wrong, if you don’t submit G50, probably means the role is less stringent. They will find out about your credit rating through G50.

the minimum to clear G50 so that you are cleared to get access into Intranet.

as for credit rating, i think its ok to have some. just need to do finance declaration.

yes, if you're selected, there's a financial declaration form you would need to fill up when you sign the contract.

if you never borrow from underground, then should be alright, meanwhile continue when possible to make regular payments and reduce it as much as you can until the day you sign the contract.

i recall that HR will ask you this at your first interview. so do make this point clear to them and be honest! that will be before G50.

G50 is done only after you are offered where they will process clearance and stuffs.

Good luck!
