I can't share where in order to maintain my privacy. It's my fault for not returning to practice.

Just wanted to make the point that the guy with a diploma is making more than myself though he is also a year younger.

This realisation is really shaking me up.

If you are not using your law degree, then it's really just a regular office job, which has many functions, si you shouldn't compare with diploma holder. For example, he or she may have NS and is in a HR or IT role rather than office support. Also, small SBs pay less well.

You are doing superbly well with just a diploma. I'm not sure how another Stat Board of Ministry will pay, but I can tell you that im 32 and have a recognised law degree but earned only 68k for 2019 at my SB.

Hi all, I'm planning to apply to DSTA, may I know what is the latest pay structure like? and is it true that there is a slight difference in pay which depends on which department you are applying/posted to? NTU degree if it helps.

I'm 31 this year in MHA uniformed service. Local diploma holder. Started with salary of $2k around 8 years ago. Currently drawing about $4.5k per month before bonuses. Annual salary for 2019 was $70k with the lousy 0.1 year end bonus.

Pursuing a part-time SUSS degree fully sponsored by MHA.

Question - should I move one to other sector upon getting my degree? Can I expect a higher salary after getting my degree if I join a Stat Board or another Ministry?

ehh...what value add can you add to another stat board? if no value add, suggest you stay at your current place. You are kinda overachieving based on yr qualifications unless you further studies.
