Hi guys, i have a qn.In feb i went for an interim interview for job A. But after a few months there were no reply. So i have decided to email them and they said they will not further process my application. I applied for another job post under the same SB and i was given a final interview instead. They asked me for my transcript and also to complete a declaration form.

What can i expect from a final interview?

First interview
 
I did my first interview a few days ago. So far the HR emailed me the next day and said they will review my application further. It also stated that an officer from a department will call me in the next few days to tell me more about the job-scope. HR also requested for my latest payslip photo and expected salary. So from the email itself does it tell that they are keen on my application?

Application timeline for SB
 
Hi guys, this post came kind of late, I have started my new job awhile back in a technology Statboard.
Would like to contribute my part for my application timeline:

Mid May : Applied for the position through career@gov
+ 1 week: Received a call from HR for a scheduled interview
+ 1 week: Interview session with hiring manager & director
+ 2 days: Received a call from HR stating interest and verbal offer
+ 8 weeks: Received security clearance approval and received the formal offer letter

Took around 2-3 weeks from application > interview > verbal offer.
After verbal offer, waited another 8 weeks for security clearance to get the formal offer letter.

Im sure we all know what happened this week. Especially to the people that I’m addressing. Multiple rumoured deaths by suicide occured and disappointingly, there was no attempt at communication of any sort towards the rest of the resident body to address this rumour/incident. It’s like the management team of PGP is jaded over the deaths of students… “It’s just another death, we don’t really care, nothing will happen if this doesn’t get leaked to the press”… is the kind of attitude we perceive from you.

Many of us were affected by it in various capacities. Can you imagine staying in the first floor and the trauma of having to witness the incident first-hand? What about those who witnessed it from the other blocks that surrounds the courtyard? How does the neighbour of the deceased feel? Does the emotions, thoughts and wellbeing of anybody matter to you? Or are you simply obsessed with keeping the name and reputation of NUS up in the high?

Hi guys

Need serious advice here - i was given a verbal offer by an agency in civil service, but before signing the official letter, they wanted me to provide my current organization’s HR contact to get some information from (presumably my security clearance and medical records). However, this means that my HR will know in advance that I am looking elsewhere and is very likely to inform my current boss of this. In addition, what if the agency reneges on the offer subsequently? I will end up in a situation where HR and my bosses know of my intention to leave the organization but without a job secured. This will jeopardize my future and my career with my organization

Should I talk to the agency’s HR and let them know my uneasiness on this

Goodluck for your application!
