No problem. I should thank you for your kind words. I'm 37 actually.
Feel free to let me know if you have any further queries on the public sector. I'll try my best to address them.

I'm a non-scholar, 2nd upper NUS grad too. Been in service since 2007 and getting 4.4k gross. Your post does shed some light on career development within public service. Do you have any words of advice for a newbie?

Bro paladin, your comments have been extremely insightful for me as well.

Just rejoined the civil service after a stint outside. Unfortunately, I'm one of those managers you spoke of. The pay band for this ambiguous grade is quite wide, i figured. Something from 4.2k all the way to 7.5k, and its further split by the assistant manager and senior manager grades. Since its not a part of the normal rank scale, what do you think of the prospects in this case?

Hi folks, any idea how much does an "Assistant Director" in the Civil Service (such Ministry of Trade & Industry and Ministry of Health) earn? I had about 7 years of experience in the private sector (semicon) and stat board, and trying out my luck in the ministries.

MTI Asst. Director is an entry level position. (it has been said titles don't stand for squat in the public service sometimes)

Progression at MTI is:

A/D
Sr A/D (or SAD if ur fond of acronyms)
DD
D

Within these are multiple salary bands which you have to watch out for. End of the day just go for Portfolio & Pay. Not the title.

hi paladin! you've got mail =)

Hi Mr.Paladin and friends,

just chance upon this page and I too have questions to ask!

how much is the starting pay for a stat board scholar from NUS with first class/second upper division? and according to your experience, how fast can he/she rises to earn around 8k monthly?

regarding DD, do they earn 5 figures as I heard? thanks for your sharing!

Any idea how senior is Assistant Director in MAS?
Are these equivalent to manger post or higher?
