Yes, I agree. I have a 2nd upper honors and 8 years of working experience and I'm not getting that amount!

Is there a age limit for HiPo programme?
 

Checking with those in the know. And how does this programme work?

you must be young. the boss must like you.

My boss don't like me, which is y my performance is always ard b- and annual increment only abt 200..
I shall just wait and see the offer, since 1st april is not far away..

you mean they make the offer to officers to enter Hi-Po on 1st Apr??

if he dont like you and you are b minus i wonder whether you are one of those 1% who can get a+ if he likes you

coz i thought the average is a C- grade

Oh, I don't know anything about this Hi-Po program, neither heard b4 anyone around me on this program.

but almost all civil servants get their merit increment on 1st Apr..

Haha. Don't be rash! Giving up a cushy civil service job for shift work as park ranger? It's not worth it.

Just to add:

Yr 2003 - Pay about $2950+ with 2nd Upper
Yr 2005 - $3450 when transferred to another orgn.
Yr 2007 - $4000 when joined Stat Board at 1 grade higher
Yr 2008 - $4450 after mkt adjustment and MI, less than 1 yr of joining
Yr 2011 - $5400 with mostly 'B' grades in past years and 1 promotion
Yr 2012 - About $6150+ with lower MI and added in mkt adjustment

Offered $5550 by Ministry for same level and job scope, but with better prospect in longer term. Limited future growth at current position with Stat Board. So, is it normal to get lesser pay when one jump ship from stat board to ministry ?? Anyone with this experience?
