B*A also gives fresh graduates MX12. It's not only the ministries but statboards also. Likely to address the current surge in tech salaries driving away people from service.

yes, there's a HUGE difference.
1) your CEP will be different. cant rmb what CEP stands for, think Career Estimated Potential or smth liddat. diploma CEP at most MX12. with degree, your CEP at least MX11A or MX10.
basically in short, CEP means the final rank that you will achieve/hit before u retire.
2) with degree, your salary increment will be in the few hundreds per year n promotion will be much faster. with diploma, your salary increment ranges from $80 to $150 per year.

I think maybe ultimately still depends on which ministry/stat board one is applying to. Mine is ministry… recently applied + fresh grad. Hiring manager say the role itself is a perm post leh (tho subjected to 1 year confirmation in service- should be like a 1 year probation bah).

From your experience, what is the average annual increment for non-promotion years for MX12?

a bit risky if only contract offered, even for mx12.

I think about 7 years ago, most of the ministries and agencies already didn't offer perm during hire..all on contract and queue for perm offer, at least this was what happened to me and my ex-colleagues back then. Back then those on perm for my side were all on scholarship

After their first year, there is a 'default' (if nothing goes terribly wrong) promotion to MX12, with the title of Manager.
If there are indeed ministries offering fresh grads to MX12, it would be good to know if this is happening across the board to all fresh grads in a certain batch, whether it's going to be the case from hereon, or whether there were certain criteria you or other fresh grads being offered MX12 right off the bat (as you mentioned most, not all) had to fulfil.

You are not informed at what HR has been doing these days. I’m not the only one. Most lf the people in my batch were offered MX12 as well.

Not everything that is not aligned with what you got is ********. You likely got offered MX12 due to your job function which command a higher starting salary than those generalist. Also, it is not that i am not informed, instead, you are too new to know what's going on in general.
