jobs at AVA, NParks could be interesting to list a few. Could still be office based work but at least you deal with food/environment right? :)

as mentioned by others earlier, if experience is irrelevant, HR will offer you fresh grad pay but should be able to match yr last drawn salary of 3k plus.

i just got a job from ministry. under scheme of MX12.
but the pay they offer is 3200. I am in the related field and hv exp of 5yrs.
Think is hard to get pay raise anymore once i am in.

i'm not trying to troll but $3200 is the entry pay for fresh grad. since u have 5 yrs of related exp, they should pay u more.

i know right. after i signed the contract and i saw the range for MX12.
i think i am conned by it. and i know pay raise in govt sector is gonna be slow.

did you try negotiating?
what was your previous pay? got rule that says they cant offer you more than that.
anyway workload should be lighter so the pay raise also lower...

Can provide more info so that we can help you:
-Which university NTU/NUS/SMU?, private degree?
-Class of honours?
-NS or non-NS?
-Last drawn pay?
