my take is since so many different kind of jobs & different companies give different title, it is more accurate to talk in terms of pay so that at least everyone can roughly know the level we are discussing. pay is not perfect proxy, but much better than job title or talking abt how many subordinates.

that is only possible if ur comparing positions from orgs that are roughly same size, otherwise wont work. for e.g. if ur 4 steps fr google ceo is very different from 4 steps fr starhub ceo as the starhub ceo himself is equal to 4 steps from google ceo.

same thing with public sector. if ur 3 steps from perm sec of mindef is ard MX8, but 3 steps from a smaller stat board ce like ncss is only MX11

If you mean manager responsibilities, that really only takes about 6-8 years.

For the benefit of others, most degree holders will join ministries, stat boards and government agencies at some sort of manager. Some frontline facing departments could be given a Assistant Director title to facilitate interaction with customers.

A recognized degree holder with >10 years relevant experience should not be applying for a manager post. If you are selected that means the government did not recognize your degree and considering you solely as a diploma experienced hire.
