If u approach the job with a good attitude then should not have much problem. No matter what role u undertake, you will get used to the job and the environment as time pass...trust me:)

For present, there is no need for newbie to take ippt.... but for ur rank, nt sure whether they accept oversea degree cert... but try apply for higher position of cos........

i went to sign letter of appointment today. i find a lot of information was lacking. if any ICA officer in here is reading this, maybe you could help clear my air of doubt.

- i was given a contract scheme while some of the others are given permanent. why so and what's the difference?

- i have a higher nitec, according to the pay scheme, im a corporal drawing about $1540 but why am i getting lesser than the amout stated in the website? this also applies to all my new found friends.

unfortunately for me, i missed these few details when i signed on the line. you can say i just 'sold' myself. :(

Currently there are 2 types. Contract 2 years , and Permanent.

For pay wise , leave entitlement and benefits are the same.

Except that those on Contract basis , are subjected to 2years in service. In which that should they find insatisfactory performance , they can terminate u or not renew your contract at the end of 2 years.

If i am not wrong , the pay have been revised for the newer batches due to a paycut for the government sector. Due to the economic slowdown.

Welcome to the club! :D

There is little difference between contract and perm. Just put in your part for the job and you will be perm eventually.

As for the pay, $1540 is with NS no doubt, but sometimes it varies depend on your ns vocation. Maybe u can ask Vital Org to find out more.
