you diploma holder??!?

how much they offer you??

NS or no-NS??

standard stable but dead end job in stat board as a poly grad, really nothing much to say

[wern]

Just wondering how long did NEA take to process your application?
I applied through their website system in Sept, up till now still no head no tail no response at all.

I already got another offer but it just comes off to me as extremely unethical for them to just ditch and disappear applicants just like that.

You join a stat board as a farmer without even a degree. What sort of career progression you talking about? Public service Division II officers pay & progression is all generic across all ministries and stat boards, i.e. stay on for 40 years and upon retirement you can get your 4k+.

There is really no need to talk about progression as a diploma in public sector.

Haha sad but true, there is no career to talk about as a Div2 officer but at least is iron rice bowl.

As for culture it depend more on you immediate boss. Good boss close one eye all slack and lim kopi together bad boss throw you to handle all the sai gang and he disappear to eat grass.
