wth.. i am sooo jealous
Nothing to be jealous. Engineering field market rate is around this range. ;-). But i say if you have engineering degree, its better to work for DSTA, you can command a pay very close to 3K. Of cz, i don't think curryman can make it there in DSTA. Haha

He is also implying that given his slack results, he already can command 2.7K. If he worked harder, he can surpass and command a higher pay.
For God sake, he already knows he is getting the market rate salary for engineering. (2.7K is comparable to what Keppel Land offers). He just want to taunt us and seek pleasure in us expressing our envy for his salary. <Yawn>.
Like i say, given he did not serve NS, he shd be pretty darn YOUNG and immature. So, he shd have kept his mouth shut.

Hmm clarification is needed here. FYI: He is a Asean Scholar studying in SG, and in return he has a 3 years bond in SG.
By all acounts, his employer probably hired him and offered this pay grade because he is simply put an Asean Scholar.
Did you for one second believe a normal Malaysian Grad who studied in a God-forsaken lousy Malaysian Uni can command an equivalent pay of RM$54oo? no way!! Unless, if curryman here is a bumi who will benefit under the bumiputra protectionism.

Oh Curryman is indeed Malaysian. Im saying that he is a Malaysian Asean Scholar in SG, thats why employer is willing to pay him that amount. If he is just an ordinary Malaysian who completed his degree in M'sia, he probably. will only get peanuts. So, there is nothing proud about Curryman ;-) -
i think u shld go for it.

Im not a scholar. Scholar so what? most of them are only good with books and exams and in the working world, one would need much more than that.My friend completed his degree in Malaysia and his starting pay was sgd4.7k

DSTA is boring. give me 3k also dunwan coz do research only. not my cup of tea. I probably can surpass this pay range after a year coz governmental linked companies are less fluid when coming to appraisals. -

thanks. I think i will grab it too. since recession is just around the corner although I have a few more interviews from other companies coming but these companies seem harder to get. eg:likes of temasek, edb, Standard chart etc -
2.7k only? That's pathetic. Many of my friends are getting 4-5k as fresh grad. Should not accept anything less than 3.5k.

Ello, are u sure 4-5K? Hmm, which industry are your friends in? For a fresh grad, there is no way.. employers will even pay you. more than 2.5K... unless you are like SUPER DUPER DEANS list, PERFECT GPA with GLORIOUS CCA records. Such anomalies are far and rare. -
Our Government employs foreigners?
And DSTA at that? O_O

Some Asean scholars are crap. They just did well for exams equivalent to the A levels and apply for scholarship. Some Asean scholars cant even get 2nd class upper.
For TS, i would suggest he take up this job if the company is reputable.

dun think DSTA will want to hire foreigners esp those from Truly Asia.
cos the security is too tight n they certainly will not want their neighbour to know bout it.
