Not civil service or ministry. It's public service, a statboard

I'm not sure how these are distinguished tbh since i spent all my life in public sector

I'm a 33yo with lse clementi degree and 9 yrs exp in private sector.

Offered 9.5k pm with roughly 2mths bonus so it's roughly 130k pa.

Is this a decent pay considering my age? Am worried I'm being shortchanged cos of my degree

joke of the week

Were you referring to MX10 instead?

And if you're going to a SB, most of them don't use MX scale (although the rough numbers may be similar)

My bad, u are right. I checked the contract and it's not using mx scale.

No problem bro But at 130k pa, I think your company's scale is probably matched to around MX10 of the ministries

Congrats for getting such a high offer!

Thanks job title says Assistant director so i assumed it's roughly mx11 equivalent

Any idea if private uni grads are discriminated when it comes to annual increments?

I'm quite keen due to the iron rice bowl nature, but a bit worried that I'll be like a "second class" citizen when it comes to annual increments and progression

The posts on this thread give the impression that nus/ntu/smu degrees are much more favored in gov roles

Ah, perhaps it may be MX11a. Highly doubt its MX11 at that level

Nah by the time most people reach mid-tier and above, the qualifications don't matter anymore. Experience and performance are the key indicators Don't worry too much bro!

Hopefully I can get to be a higher flyer like you one day

What should I expect when I hit the salary ceiling for my grade?

Working in a starboard now and should hit my estimated salary ceiling in around 3yrs time

Would I be getting 0% increment every year once I reach that stage?

Yes that's correct. You would no longer receive any more merit increments.
