MINDEF DXO (All FAQ on it)

I am wondering there is any job suitable for me as DXO.
I used to be an Army Regular and left after 5 years of service when my bond was up after 4 years (CPT1 rank $4.6k)into private sector as I was young and curious about what others are doing.
Then after 2 years in private sector as project engineer (involved in LTA or SBST projects), I decided to go into teaching.
I have been a teacher for 6 years. Pay started at $2.6k as a trainee. Increased to $3.3k after being PDGE trained in NIE. Promoted one year after graduating from NIE and salary increased to $4.3k, after few years of increment now at $4.9k.
Now I am thinking whether the MINDEF will welcome ex-regular into service as DXO.
What is the grade I should be expecting and what kind of salary should I be looking at?

Quite dumb of you to leave a jiak liao bee job to go into teaching which involves actual hard work. Hard to get into a jlb job again, don't think you'll be lucky twice.

Hi guys, I'm currently mid 30s and is now 4 years+ into a civil service job with 5 years prior experience in private sector. I have a private sim-uol degree. What are the odds if i apply for a manager title DXO role? What would the salary of a manager title DXO be around?

Anyone has any advice on how to do well in site preview? Thank you!

i applied for a dxo post a month ago and received an email for interview. is it normal to go straight into interview without psychrometric test? anyone has same experience? and did they ask you to take the test after the interview?

I applied in October and didn't go for psychometric test too. But was scheduled for a written test, followed by interview few days later.
