Reference check refers to HR calling the referees or previous employment HR?

Hi, can I check if it’ll be okay to call HR and check on my application status? The last I heard from them was about 2 weeks back and they mentioned that my application is under process and they’ll get back to me once there’s any update.

EDB and MTI definitely has better job prospects since one is dealing with MNCs and the other dealing with industry level wide or policy related initiatives. I think they pay better than ESG too. Anyone would like to share more about the culture wise of these 3?

If you feel that there are valid reasons to discuss, pls do so. Else you will feel underpaid, which is not a good feeling..

If you are a fresh grad, it is very unlikely that you they will adjust their pay since it is pegged to the scheme, unless your final semester results can bring up your class, i.e. 2nd upper to 1st class.

If you are an experienced hire, then just try and ask for more, at most the increment gets rejected.
