Sad to know that I'm still primarily judged just by what school I grad from. Thought the civil sector and individuals would be more progressive compared to the 90s. But I am not here to pick a fight. Thanks for all the input.

Many salty people on this website 1 lah. Anyway, all the best to you!

just curious what was your role previously and what you studied?

what sector the ministry are you joining?

I think your 0.5year jobless and 2 years exp was why they gave u MX12 and 3.5k offer

Generally, MX12 ranges from $2.8-$5.8k, and because you only have 2 years Exp, assuming is related.

Govt don't match private-sector pay, you take it or leave it.

Govt HR will not help you to fight for that 100-200 extra because of the approval processes and there's a salary determination to calculate what they can offer... and yes, the school and what class of degree still matters sadly.

i suggest you should think about how the total annual pay out and the stability

SUSS graduate with 2 years exp. Offered MX12 $4.5k. They do look at your experience.

if you got your degree and there are a post for a degree, then 2-3 years to MX12..

is also depends on your current salary to the next MX salary

MX13(i) if not wrong starts around 2.1k and MX12 usually start from $3k..

Would it be a norm for MX13(1) to progress to MX12 eventually? Or it is more of an exception?

3. You replied the details if any
4. HR TA seeks approval to secure your position.
4.1 - Which account to pay your salary
4.2 - Your MX grade approval needs to be approved by a certain level (personnel board)
4.3 - Background and Security check, references check, etc, can take up to 1mth
4.4 - Who is your RO, buddy etc
4.5 - Confirm in an email your offers
5 - wait for you to accept...

in govt 4 weeks is not long..

1. For me, I applied in Mid August 2017
2. HR contacted me in mid Sept 2017 for interview in late Sept 2017
3. Interviewed late Sept 2017
4. no news till early Nov 2017, thought gone case...
5. early Nov 2017 called to verbal offer
6. mid-Nov 2017 official offer
7 late Dec 2017 join the ministry - was on contract so AWS & PB was received in Oct 2017 before i left the previous org :P

From what I gathered here, so it does seem a long wait to finally get to see your Appointment Letter from the day that you were interviewed for the civil service.

The private sector, on the other hand,...

How much are you asking for? I got 10 years working experience and I got my degree in 2019. Part time studies though.
