Unless you really possess a special skillset or knowledge and this is the exact reason why they r hiring you.

have apply to join a ministry with 3+ years of private sector exp, they offer me a job.

is totally non-negotiable.

They give you $xxxx basic salary, you either say YES or NO.

Early 30s - 5k+ (Senior Manager)
Early 40s - 7k+ (Asst Director)
Early 50s - 8k+ (Dy Director)
Beyond - Stagnate and get basic wage infation increment

Go in with your eyes wide open, there is a price to pay for job stability.

However I also get the impression that some of the other ministries pay higher starting pay. Is it a good idea to attempt to negotiate for higher starting pay, although I am a fresh grad? I have a good CCA record, have gone for exchange programmes, have good O level and A level results.

other thread have female stating the starting pay is 3.2k with 2nd upper in ministry in 2012

and got source have female as DXO 1st class fresh grad getting 3.4-3.5k starting in 2012
