Is local poly diploma plus overseas bachelor considered Pte degree?

Then is it possible to convert back to local uni by taking a masters at nus?

Hi all,

Does anyone know what rank i should be expecting (mx11/12) with about 5 years of private experience? Local grad (2nd lower), female.

Thanks in advance!

yup, agreed. i am the OP.
generally, its hard for private U to join policy role but technical role (typically at SB) is possible.
in fact, i have many private U colleagues.

to clarify, i am 36 this year.. typo in my earlier post.

I thought masters are not recognized since most job dun really require post graduate qualification?

Hi, i was verbally offered a position in MHA and accepted it. However, I changed my mind and sent a rejection email. The HR replied asking what were my key considerations that made me changed my mind and i gave them my thoughts. Since then, no reply from them. Are they supposed to acknowledge my withdrawal or ghosted on me? The status is career.gov is still "shortlisted".

In private sector maybe got chance. Civil service forget it...

Hi! Is contract g5 a good grade to move into astar at mid thirties?

The HR was telling me most people in astar are contract and they tend to renew. Not sure if true.

Its a corporate type of role.

TIA!

Sometimes if an advertised position has multiple/new openings, they may still accept you if you change your mind.
