Hi, just wondering how far a FCH gets you in the civil service, compared with lower honours. Is there a point in studying so hard if a second-upper is at the end of the day enough? :p

the minimum entry criteria is usually a Second Class Upper from NUS/NTU/SMU. unless u are applying for some ministries/statboards that require a specialised skillset.
i haven't seen any successful ppl in CS from SIT/SUTD/SUSS/SIM:GE/Kaplan/MDIS. my definition of successful is earning at least 5.5k to 6k before 35yo.

just to answer your question, the MX rank is the most generic rank used for deg holders in CS.

MX13 = entry lvl for deg holder
MX12 = u pass 2 years probation / contract and are emplaced into perm scheme
MX11 = probably a make or break deal to decide if u will jump into semi-superscale before retirement
MX10 = the max of your salary scale crosses 5-digits
MX9 aka Superscale = congrats your basic salary is now 5-digits. only 5% of ppl in the same dept as u have this rank. unless u are at HQ or smth...

the above is probably equivalent to your banking & finance (B&F) side of:

financial analyst / asst manager i suppose?
associate / manager?
AVP
VP
P
board of directors / shareholders of a listed bank in SG

u kinda get the picture....



element of luck involved. if your dept has no scholars and u are willing/chosen to take on key appointment holder (KAH) positions ahead of 2.1/2.2, i'll say there's a high possibility that u could reach MX10 before retirement. most ordinary degree holders dont even get a chance to smell MX10 before retirement.



severely inaccurate especially for MX12 and 13. i had frens from SMU biz (i didnt ask his class of honours) getting offered low to mid-3k from MHA ICA. and that was way back in 2010.

your salary scale looks more suitable for the prehistoric dinosaur age or girls in skirts without NS LOLOL
