Civil Svc/ Statboard - Typical Timeline for making a Hiring Decision

dxo thread is so hot...everybody only cares about salary... Which is understandable...

Skim thru the final 10 pages of DXO thread, the past 2 months there's been intense hiring... Plenty of helpful estimates.

wow dxo thread is real exciting, with local fresh grads quoting as high as 4-4.4k. no wonder that place is buzzing. i was reading through their progression, seems pretty weird that they go for internal interviews (like others) to get jobs. do other civil service do that too?

I guess many of quotes here are based on local (public - possibility the top 3) universities in Singapore. those private ones, especially SIM/ foreign students/grad, i think they should be prepared and expect for a discounted offer than those posted (unless stated otherwise by the poster on their background).

unless they are from the world top university like Harvard, MIT, Oxbridge, LSE, UCL and etc, maybe can match the local quotes.

the civil service pay structure is possibly pegged to academic branding and outcomes as explained by someone earlier on the risk-vs-reward model. this is how it is.

Any info on the hiring timeline for JTC?

Eer, I advise you to absorb with a pinch of salt. I still feel that most FCH will get quoted under 3.5k. Only those midcareer who somehow scored a fantastic package... End up coming to anonymous forums to brag. Take annual package divide by 12 maybe 4.5 lor..

Go see the publicly advertised payscale for spf and officers... Fresh sign on saf Officer scheme uniformed regular 4.5k male, fch, NS. Beginner DXO cannot be above uniform in terms salary la... Its open secret. DXO is 20%-30 less.

Related to timeline..
My cousin just signed on spf... NTU Honours male NS.. 4.4k once graduated from academy 9 months training. No life. 24/7 phone can ring. Regret also no use.. Father and mother signed bond..

Related to your qn.
Yes, more n more in public service do it. The timeline to find talent is as such:
Step 1. Anybody in my dept capable..easily promote. Step 2.anybody in other dept capable..must interview Step 3. Anybody from outside... Stringent interview.

a few hear-says for reference. real or not up to you to believe:

1. my buddy was was considering two offers, he told me all got 4K and I know one of them is from DXO - graduating NUS FCH.

2. one of my classmates joining MOE Teaching, 3.9, NUS 2:1 honours.

3. another classmate joining CAAS was 3.9, NUS 2:1 honours.

After PB 1 April.
If they know PB is pathetic, then grab jobs earlier Jan / Feb.
If you are asking when HR usually call, anytime Jan till May.

some salary quotes for reference, non-engineering role. all males so got 'NS' pay.

1. my buddy (pending FCH NUS) says that he had 2 offers of ~4k, and one of them i know is definitely DXO. Cause i said if his offers were both 4k.

2. my classmate 1 (pending 2Upper NUS): ~3.9 MOE
3. my classmate 2 (pending 2Upper NUS): ~3.9 The aviation authority.
4. my classmate 3 (pending FCH NUS): ~4.7 Specialised scheme

5. no offer yet. emoz.

don't know if they include all the AWS or what. Believe at your own risk.

and our uni very hot last couple of days. hope that doesnt affect our pay ahhah!
