Hi, I was shortlisted for the PT one working day after i applied.
Anyone can share what will be the PT be about? |
Roughly how much is the "glass ceiling" for a engineering 2nd lower hons grad? lets say for an average B grader only...can at least hit 8k/mth after 10 years?

im feeling demoralised.
did not even get a call/email on a PT. they said they'll get back with a reject or shortlist. Im getting nothing! |

Actually the PT is very easy. They don't take the best of the best for the results. All you have to do is to hit the minimum. And even so, it is only a small portion of the assessment. Your qualifications and experiences matter. And sometimes... connections.

So far everytime i apply i got call for PT, but never got shortlisted for an interview.. haha.. btw im a diploma holder.. i applied dxo diploma position btw..

How long did you wait for email about site visit?
Hi Guys & Gals,
I interviewed for a DXO position on 4th April. The HR interviewer told me that I will be notified within 2 weeks even if I am not selected. Regarding what she said, I have 2 questions: 1) Is site visit offer always made within 2 weeks of interview? 2) Will MINDEF HR really inform you if you do not make it past the interview stage? Thanks! |
Just got email from Mindef I am not shortlisted after PT, can try 1 year later :(.
Took them about 2.5 weeks for the rejection email, fyi guys. |

No News
Hi everyone,
I went to the PT since 12 March, till today no news for any interviews. :( I have a Masters degree from NUS recently but graduated from an Oz Uni for my Bachelors. Last week, I sent an email to inform them that I left out some of the documents for submission the other day and if I could send them the soft copies. I slipped in the question to ask if there was any news of the application. They replied the next day to say if they need the documents they will ask for the soft copies again. They didn't answer my 2nd question on the application. Should I persist and ask about news of the application? I damn scared kena rejection letter once I ask again. But this is taking way too long. Wonder if I really screwed it up for not completing the PT questionaire. Anyone who took the PT that period in the same situation too? |
Curious
Good day,
I'm currently studying for my Masters Degree in Information Systems (IT) on top of my existing 2nd Uppers Honours Degree. 3 years of working experience in my company (As a software engineer in defence business related projects), and I have been considering DXO career for quite some time. Salary-wise, what should be the expectations of someone described above fare for the following IT-related positions? - Executive (Learning Facility Management) - Executive (Doctrine) - Executive (Mapping) - Technical Officer (Mapping) I understand that DXO's IT-related careers isn't so much technical (my current job) as it is policy and process-oriented. |

Hi I need some advice.
I applied for a position, went through PT, one round of interview and unit preview subsequent. I was told to wait for news in the next few weeks. However I saw the position that I applied for was advertised again on their website. What does that mean??? |
It's been nearly a month since I took the PT. If I don't get a reply, should I write in? Or continue waiting?
|
anyone knows the salary range?
I am going for health check soon. the appt I was offered was staff officer. anyone has any idea of the salary range for this dxo appt?

I want to ask, pay-wise DXO better or MXO?
I heard MXO after 1 year will auto promote? DXO no have? Means in the long term your pay is lower? |
So what does a research officer really does? Will there be lots of paper work and you need to have a very strong General Paper writing skills? Are these sets of skills been acquired from the job useful if the person were to venture out to other jobs next time?

DXO Unit Preview
Hi, does anyone know what to expect for a unit preview? Additionally, I was told that there would be another round of interview too. Does anyone know what the interview will be about in general?
Thanks! |
Went for PT on 9 may. Still no reply yet. Anyone here received any news on it yet?
|
I did PT on 2 May and received a call from them for interview on 22nd May and email 23rd May. about 3 weeks after PT.
Any idea how is the 1h written assessment like? Had to do it before my interview tomorrow. My position is a finance executive. |

however in most cases, going for a unit preview means a 50% success in obtaining that position. what's next would be your medical checkup and security clearance. the entire process took 3 months for me. |
Quote:
a unit preview involves mostly your future bosses walking you through your work area, giving you a more in-depth understanding of your job as well as the working environment. i for one did not undergo a second interview during the unit preview, but i've heard that some applicants actually had to go through that. i guess it depends on the position you applied. but i believe that is mostly if the bosses actually hold interest in 2 or more applicants for a particular position. it also gives the applicants a chance to make a final decision on whether they believe they are suitable for the job or not. hope it clarifies! |
Need help !!!
I went for the PT test around 2-3 weeks ago, and I just got a call that requires me to do another test T.T Basically the job I applied for is strategist, and for the position, it seems that I need to do another 24 hr test. The time I choose to start the test is this Friday Morning. Does anyone has any idea what the test is testing ? Like essays or MCQs (In my dreams) ? And how far it is for me the job ? So far I have spent 1.5 months le, not yet even 1st interview T.T |
bonuses
Any existing DXOs care to share about the bonuses? e.g usually receive how many months (range). Thanks. I am glad to answer any queries to my best knowledge too

Thinking of doing a mid career switch at the age of 40.
Does Mindef or DXO take in someone with a EEE PhD and come from a semiconductor industry? If the switch is possible, what are the positions available in Mindef and DXO? |

Hi everyone, anyone knows how long to wait for news after unit preview? Thanks!
|
I waited for 3-4 weeks after unit preview before they call to say the hiring manager is keen
|
just checking - anyone that taken PT on 11th Jun (Wed) and got called up for interview yet?
|
I applied in Feb 2014, when for PT in March. First interview in May. Unit preview June.
After the unit preview - next day, HR called to say I got selected and confirmed they will match my expect salary. Just did medical checkup today, the HR said they can only offer me in mid July. Apparently, there are some clearances and approvals that must be sought first. |
