Can I know under what kinda circumstances wld an officer get this kinda higher than usual annual increment? What's the chance of promotion? Been feeling rather demoralized with no progress all these yrs thou been performing well acc to my supervisor

Annual increment of $278 is way too low.

I am Singapore Institute Technology(SIT) graduate, which partnered University Of Glasgow(UOG) for mechatronics engineering degree. I graduated with quite good results, 1st Class Honours. I am looking to work in the civil sector. My question is, whether the HR of the ministries and stat boards gives fresh graduate like mine a chance?

Serious not? Fresh grad with first class get 12k per mth? Any major also can?

12k for real scholars i think he meant. dunno if the figure is rght, but assit director is where they start..PSC scholars, not normal scholars

orh. for scholar only.

what about normal fresh grad with first class honors? assuming EEE degree.

I think as a non-scholar with good grades in the civil service, there are a few programs which you can try to get your bosses' recommendations to attend them.

1) Postgraduate sponsorship. For those who miss out on undergraduate scholarships as an A'Level leaver.

2) High Potential Program. Though not quite on par with MA or AO scheme, it sure is the stepping stone for more things to come.

3) Senior Command and Staff course (for uniformed groups). Grooming you to become a superscale officer.

If you have all 3 in your bag, congratulations to you!

These are misguided info, esp for pt 1 and 3. My ex-superior was in pt 1 and 3, and I never did. Now, my staff grade has just surpassed him this year.
