Hi Andi,

For the government sector, psychologists are categorised under management executive scheme.
Pay for guys range from 3200 - 3400 (depends on class of honours) http://www.spf.gov.sg/career/co_mgtexec.htm.

Also, a prof once told me the pay is generally highest at IMH and Mindef. Psychologists at hospitals also dun get as much as those working in government.

For positions at VWOs (voluntary welfare organisations)I believe the pay should be much lower..

Here's one for you:

I am a Ph.D. level psychologist with 20 years exerience looking to work in the Civil Service College with the title of Senior Consultant - Psychologist.

From what I have seen here, a base salary of S$144,000 seems about right.

Am I way off?

Thanks in advance!

yes, 144k looks right.

Hi,

I'm exploring a mid-career change, maybe to pursue psychology. I read a $144k for 20 years experience, seems really low. What are the most optimistic scenarios for someone that pursues the psychology field? Start his own clinic in Singapore?

How to pursue a mid-career change in clinical pyschology? What coures are available?

Is it 144,000 per month or 144,000 per year or 144,000 per day?
