Yes they tend to focus on post-degree experience if they are placing you on the Mx scheme. Mx scheme is primarily for graduates so it makes sense to look at post-degree experience.

Which university did U graduate from?

Yes, that was what I was told too. Not due to performance.

It is possible to be MX11 early last yr, put on MX11a later last yr when introduced, and then MX10 this yr.

Since your boss and HR didn't emplace you on mx11a last yr, it is unlikely that you have a chance at mx10 this yr even if mx11a wasn't introed. I dun think you were unfairly penalised by the system change.

I was told the mass emplacement to 11a was not due to performance but rather the salary point which crossed the second tier. My director and DD were very concerned and assured me it was not due to my performance.

Yup, this seems to be the reason. 3.9k seems fair for someone with 2 years post-degree experience.


What role did you apply for, within the ministry? Have you accepted the offer?

Good lor. That means no loss for you. You enjoyed the +5% like everyone else did in MX11.

If you perform well, no issue catching up after 1 year. Guess it depends on whether you want a teaching or non-teaching career. Increment is on the first anniversary. They are likely to convert you to perm after the 1-year contract.
