Bump if anyone can ans. TIA!

Usually, the conversion to perm estab coincides with 1-year completion (or 2 now). With that comes Merit Increment. So it is not the conversion which results in the increment, but the annual MI.

From Zaobao deputy chief editor, we afraid to call out Ceca land but use South Asia and until now no authority dare to explain.... more care ceca feeling than own sinkie feeling...

But don't you think that was rather long? Almost 4 weeks later to be formally offered. Wonder that exactly too place in between.

Background check and security clearance.

Background check includes reference checks from your previous employer/s and/or academic certificates validations from your school/university?

And what exactly is a security clearance?

Background: UOL 2nd lower hons, 2 years of exp in private sector earning 5.5k (non-bank), lost the job, looking for new opportunities for about half year now, received 1-yr contract offer from a ministry at MX12 band 3.5k. Contract may be converted to FT or renewed based on performance

The job scope is aligned with what I am interested in but the pay is just unattractive. Should I take the offer (job hunting is really tough during covid) and "think long-term" because having a govt job in my industry seems reputable and I can get to learn in a relatively stable environment?

TLDR received offer from a ministry, am ok with everything except for the pay but unsure if I am too narrow minded

Well, if you can find yourself a better paying job elsewhere... Otherwise...

5.5k after 2 years of exp is pretty decent! Wonder what happened if you could share.

I didn't go through NS, and the numbers mentioned are not AWS. Previous role has a fixed 1 month bonus.

I'm concerned that post-covid my future employers will lowball based on the ministry's offer. I also tried to nego but HR was adamant that it's final.
