Applies to scholars and white horses as well, but I say multiply the starting salary by 2-3 times. Golden parachute to GLCs at the end of your career a possibility.

lol 2 ignorant people who pretends to know the job.

Anyone did the PT on 10 Oct and gotten a call/reply?

Current job vacancies for many of the post are having title of manager.

Requirements are that tertiary and/or no experience candidates.

So, they really do hire Diploma holders with no working experience to be managers? How does that even work? Or is it just title inflation?

Giving back to the community

Almost 2019 already, below 4k for manager. The post came with an asterix meaning no experience also can apply.

Salary does not commensurate with experience.

8 years of relevant experience
Relevant NTU Masters degree
Private university
To be fair, I hope to climb up to managerial.
No matter how I count, dunno how they count. 1 year 100 is it? Maybe it makes sense if my private degree starts at 2600.

Manager and above, the PT score determines if HR software automatically sends you an email of rejection once your score is filled in.


The lady whom I spoke with sounded really desperate and dejected, must have been scolded by so many candidates with experience, offering them under 4k when their previous job was in the 6 or 7k region.

This shows you that government is now trying to absorb jobless people with minimum wage.

The good thing is the solid bonuses and family oriented culture. Never going to small business ever.

tertiary here refers to degree holders. its not title inflation.

Rejection email will reach within 3 working days if your score is not within their range. Maybe more people are hoping to resign from their current position, so HR is swamped with applicants hoping to start work in 2019.

If you have waited till now, no news is good news. You may consider to contact HR.

Having worked in both public and private, both have managers that are really bottom feeders without anyone to manage. I'm not including OL that may serve as admin support to multiple people.

Title inflation is so rampant nowadays the executive application form asks to indicate number of subordinates.

Anyone went for the PT on 1 Nov and have received any reply from Mindef? I know it will take quite long but can’t help but feel anxious haha.

Rejection very fast, hiring takes forever.
Don't forget now end of year all go holiday plus surge in people applying for new job in the new year.
