Hi, hope you've gotten a response from HR. Otherwise don't worry too much, just be patient and wait.

For me, I emailed HR to check on my status 3 weeks after the first interview and someone from the unit I was applying to got back to me with a Unit Preview date on the same day. Not sure if it's a coincidence or perhaps HR did try and expedite.

No rejection email means you can still be hopeful! But like someone said in the thread a few pages back, don't stop applying elsewhere

I took my PT last week and HR emailed me if im shortlisted for the interview, they will contact me within 2 weeks. Is this a hint that I did not get shortlisted or am I over thinking?

I applied for paramedical jobs. I went for my PT on 10 June and no updates as for now. I did not manage to complete quite a number of questions for my PT. Sigh.Guess i should start finding another job in the meantime):

Same here. How many questions did you manage to finish for the verbal reasoning? I finished only about half. I guess there's no harm in looking out for other opportunities!

MINDEF daily routine never ever changes.

7.30 - start work
8.30 - breakfast (1 hour)
9.30 - return to office
11.30 - drive out, lunch at Bukit Panjang Plaza, pay bills, buy stuff for home (2 hours)

1.45 - back at office
3.00 - tea break (30 mins)
3.35 - back at office
4.45 - go toilet, clear bladder
4.55 - back at desk
5.00pm - shut down pc, go back home

MINDEF is one place where you can really slack and earn iron rice bowl. Sometimes they'll be unnecessary meetings where people will talk and talk about things but the thing is that decisions have already been made prior to these meetings so you pause and ask yourself why then are we having the meetings in the first place LOL!

I finished only like 1/3 of the paper. I was too slow in the beginning. But well, it is a good learning experience as it is my first time attempting a PT. Do you also have a nursing bg?

Hi, I think you're overthinking! Just give it 2 or even 3 weeks after the PT first. If still no news you can always email/call HR to check on your status. MHRD are all really nice people.

The reason why I ask you to wait up till 3 weeks is because I think they are really busy now with degree grads applying/coming into the workforce.. So just give them more time!

Default DX5 Unit Preview

Hey guys, just wondering how long does it take for HR to get back to you after a unit preview ?

Also anyone know how many people get to a unit preview on average? Or is it usually just one or two persons then they judge ?

What is usually done usually during the unit preview and how long does it take?
