How high is the starting pay? I'm not applying, but just curious. Does it beat other ministries? I thought all ministries would be about the same..

Foreign Service Officer scheme, how difficult is the entire application process, and what about the culture and development? seriously considering to take a chance on it since its something new to me

Foreign Service scheme. The application process is fairly difficult, consisting of psychometric and essay tests, assessment centre and interviews - may take up to two to three months in total. Pay depends on your class. Culture is fast-paced, full of intelligent people, steep learning curve, good exposure and chance of working overseas, expect long working hours.

anyone knows whats mas bonus like this year? how about their payscales for mx13/mx12 (2:1 - 1:1) ?

Can a diploma holder currently working in MCI and studying part time in unisim apply for mid term scholarship?

Currently is a contract staff there...

Hi,

Has anyone worked / currently working in / at EDB or Spring Singapore before?

Is the nature of the work at these two agencies very customer-centric and involve lots of marketing / business development in nature?

Thanks for your inputs!

MFA is not for people who just want a "govt job". I've met many people who left MFA because they feel very "small". Everyone there is intelligent and attuned to current affairs. Culture-wise there's a lot of intellectual debates and less coffeeshop talk. So if you are not that kind you will not fit in.

Most of them also really love their job from what I observe. So they see nothing wrong with working OT till late. My DD in a GLC was from MFA. I thought he was actually really brilliant and committed in my company. But in the end he can tell me that in MFA he was the weakest and stupidest. So I imagine the calibre of FSOs to be very strong.
