Hello. Anybody knows the difference between the management associates and associate positions they are hiring now? I know management associates is a 12month duration with 3 rotation while associates are on a 2 year contract basis with a fixed division. Anymore knows about the difference in career progression/salary wise?

perhaps he/she means to ask why the bond length is arbitrary and varies?

If by “pinnacle” you mean the branch with qualified and polished grads from the top to the bottom. I would say no govt service will evert come close to the prestige of MTI’s
Economist track.
Even S$NEER policy augmentations are executed by economists from MTI instead of MAS’ own graduate track, this is pretty much peak level public service.

the interview was very relaxed, being the final round they just want to see your behavioural fit. the assessment centre was fair and similar to most.

It is difficult to deny that both organisations are internationally recognised and sought after by private sector, given their daily work revolves around heavy-weights such as big banks and MNCs. On the other hand, ESG works with local SMEs, helping them grow/expand and possibly internationalise.
Wouldn't want to point fingers and compare which one is better, it really depends on the individual and where his/her passion lie - do you like crunching numbers in the financial sector? or perhaps you enjoy engaging stakeholders and getting your hands dirty?
While money/prestige is important, don't chase something for the sake of it. If you're passionate about what you do, everything else will naturally follow. Cheers!

also, I heard ESG has a younger start up like culture as opposed to EDB and MAS which has more scholars and a bit more dull. does ESG working with businesses give it better exit opportunities?
sorry for the questions, graduating next year and quite curious about job prospects
