How many weeks after job application closes? 4 to 6?

Incoming fresh grad from NTU. Was recently told by HR one day after the panel interview with a stat board that they are keen to offer.

How long does it take to receive your contract after you have accepted verbally that you are keen to proceed?

I think you just based on the email you receive after your submit your application bah. Usually they will give u a date to follow.

Rejected by mfa. What a waste of time asking me to go down to their office to interview 4 times.

Tuesday of Week 5

等你等到我心痛，我的心情谁会懂, security clearance slow, offer 无影踪

10 march went for round 1 panel interview
3 interviewers conducting the round with me and another 4 pax

after tt me and one pax shortlisted and suppose to go for 2nd round
radio silence from the hiring ministry when the HR point of contact ask me and the other shortlisted pax

so she check with the ministry side
and was only then told they r not proceeding with the 2nd round, presumably they found the persons to hire and fill up the headcount

that was really a clothesline to keep candidates wait and disappear literally

imagine sending out party invite but nvr tell participant the party is already cancelled.

hi, just wanted to share my timeline from application to offer for everyone who’s still waiting! this is with a ministry.

Before CNY 2023 - submit online application
1st week of Feb - informed by HR that i’m shortlisted for interview
3rd week of Feb - went for 1st round of interview before a panel, got a call back from HR the same day to arrange for 2nd round interview + fill up G50 form
4th week of Feb - supposed to have the 2nd round interview but it was cancelled, HR email to ask for my referee’s contact details as they are proceeding with the application
End of Feb - my referee told me that she has done her part
Early March - informed by HR via email that they’re processing the application, also received an email from the hiring manager on my application progress
Mid March - HR update that they shld be able to inform me of the official outcome of my application by end march, pending approval from senior management
End March (also this week) - received official email offer from HR

Salary offered was however much below my expectations so I’m still considering the offer, and hoping HR would be able to increase the salary.

Hi, thanks for the detailed sharing of your timeline. Did HR mention to you the salary only upon the confirmation of the written offer? Did they give u any range prior to that?
