for CS, how many months of your past salary do they ask for when crafting the offer? the standard 3 months?

reason i'm asking is that I recently got promoted (3 months ago) and I hope they take that into consideration. Also my bonus is also there in the last three months, so will they take my annual compensation into consideration or only monthly?

recently jo teo said employers cant ask candidates to showpast payslip. Any difference since then?

Mine didn’t ask for payslip, but did ask about last drawn.

Interview at SLA
 
Anyone went for this recently? Any replies from HR?

Hi guys, has anyone tendered resignation in a SB/Ministry within one month due to job unsuitability? Any repercussions for next employment if one is still keen to work in public sector? TIA.

Hey guys, I'm curious about this too as I have an impending offer from a Min and am in the midst of an interview process with another SB which I'm quite keen to take up on.

Would I be blacklisted if I take on the Min offer and leave within a month?

Appreciate your advice. TIA!

Is it normal for checks to be 3-4 mths long?.. last time i submited G50 was in Jul

Unregistered 08-09-2021 11:54 AM

If you have not accepted the Ministry’s offer, I think the process is still reversible?

Hi, does anyone know how long does MCCY usually take to call up candidates after applications close?

Unregistered 08-09-2021 09:57 PM

Got an offer at 35% paycut. Do they really expect people to accept or are they low balling for fun?
I had thought that hr could have screened out applicants who they know the cut will be so significant.

She didn't ask to submit payslip, but told me that she knows won't be able to match based on my qualifications and experience. And that civil service pay scale is different from private but still.. Its easily a difference of 50k in annual salary.

Yeah I was thinking too that it doesn't make sense to take unless I'm unemployed. Just disappointing after going through all the interviews.

Many have the misconception that they can chiong in private sector then switch to civil service to get similar compensation. You don't - especially if you are an above average performer in the private sector, chances are you will probably be better of staying. Yes civil service is stable but theres always going to be a tradeoff.

50K less annually? how much are you making now and how much are they offering?
this is seriously too much of a paycut to absorb
the govt should seriously reconsider if they want to get good people in

160k, offered at 110k. I reckon that the position may be too junior since its not always obvious based on job position, but I thought in that case hr would have known, vs behaving now that it's just my expectation is too high. Guess it's also luck for the hr I met.

I have 15y+ work exp, so it's not that I'm some young high flier earning alot in early 30s.

Wow ok that's fast. I heard nothing for more than a week already, so I guess prob failed it.
For you, prob still clearing security checks since hr has already confirmed they will proceed. They said

Status In Process
 
What are the chances that application status in process translate to interview? I put in 2 application, it went to in process but then become unsuccessful after a very long period. Demoralised.

I still have application that since in process since last year. If there is no call or email for interview after one month from date of applications. Just take it as unsuccessful. Usually the person who update the system is busy or lazy.

Job application time line
 
I applied for a job at a stat board (rlated to trade min), timeline as below.
I wonder what's taking so long. Still staying hopeful tho. Just wanted to share here!

Mid july - submit application
Mid august - received news of first interview

17 august - 1st interview
18 August - hr called to arrange for peer session
19 august - peer session

End aug - didn't hear back from Hr. Dropped an email, HR called to discuss concerns about salary, that it may not match my current pay/ expectations. Shared that i am open to discussion.
Next day - received news for 3rd interview

5 sept - final interview
13 sept - no news, dropped an email, HR called next day to inform still processing and doing clearance, adding that the comments were positive.

Hopefully things will turn out well. fingers crossed!
Either that or its clear that the salary offer may not even be able to meet halfway with expected salary.

Do all SB/Ministries require the medical checkup + G50 clearance or is it just the selective few that are more "secretive" or needs to be physically fit?

Iras job interview (tax officer 1 year contract)
 
How long is the timeline from first video interview to acceptance? How long does iras get back to us?

Also, if we reject their video interview(due to personal circumstances), does it mean we will not get any interviews from iras for all their positions anymore? Aka blacklisted

Usually 1/2 weeks after video interview and assessments (if any), then maybe 1/2 more interviews but there will be a panel interview.

Turnover at IRAS is quite high, esp for valuers, so they are usually hiring on a rolling basis. If you don't hear back after 2 weeks I think it's safe to say you've been rejected.

All the best!
