Though I'm not in HR so I'd be happy to stand corrected on this |
Quote:
If offered FHQ, I'd also recommend taking that up first - nothing stopping you from applying for postgrad opportunities during the HQ stint! |

However, in a highly competitive school where many young go-getters are vying for career advancement, you can bet that if any of them express to their ROs or any member(s) of the panel that they cannot take the heat, they are going to be sidelined over the next few RnP cycles. Don't forget nowadays most of the new intakes are scholars. Most of them come with certain levels of motivation to progress in their career. |

Nowadays most new intakes are scholars? If everyone is a scholar, then no one is a scholar. |
When everyone in the intake is a scholar, the one who falls behind the rest, will get less priority for opportunities.
Demand and supply applies here. When many people are fighting for the limited quotas, any sort of mistake is a good reason for decision makers to exclude them from the competition. Don't give others a good reason to eliminate you from the race. Not fear mongering. Just common sense. Think of how teachers choose the head prefects or student council chairperson. The process is not so different after all |

In an ideal situation, everyone who is tired and overworked (actually, just everyone) says something about the workload, and this leads to systemic change. Unfortunately you can't avoid market spoilers who are willing to make crushing sacrifices for career advancement, and if the rest of the pack want to keep up, they have to show that they can keep up. |

But are you in touch with what actually happens on the ground? Maybe your own school does this well: kudos to you and your colleagues. It's not the same everywhere though. |
Perhaps the saddest part about this whole thing is that if you want to ascend to a position with enough power to change this stupid culture, you have to first succeed and thrive in this system.
