mid career switch to ICA senior officer

Anyone here can advice on previous query of a mid career switch to ICA Senior Officer ? If yes, how does they calculate your compensation package range? What is the salary range one can negotiate for, per annum can take home how much roughly. (Assuming I have been working in private sector for abt 5 years)

Any info greatly appreciated thanks in advance

work life balance for ICA sO

guys...
recently I chanced upon this thread that the working shifts are 3 kind.

Morning
Morning
Niight
Night
Off for sleep
Afternoon
Afternoon
Off

I dont quite understand... If someone with famiy and children in future, do ICA senior officer really have to stick to shift jobs?

Maybe first 2 years still ok..but throughout the ICA career seems abit quite sianz...

anybody can shed some light on the posting choices , process and posting procedures after appointment?:s12:

not all SOs are deployed to the checkpoints. there are SOs in various depts at the HQ as well, whereby they work office hours. as to how the posting is done, i'm not sure. but under the SO scheme, SOs will get posted to different depts within ICA every few years.

submit documents: 5 March
interview: 9 March
offer call: Not yet ):

I've just officially graduated from a poly and I applied this job while I was in my final year in poly . Its been more than 3 weeks and they still haven't call me to inform if I have been offered a position of ICA Specialist or rejected :/ i'm so scared I might not get this job .

Should I call the HR and ask whats my application status or just wait until they call me ? Is this normal for them to take this long to inform you of the outcome ?

it is not unusual for them to take at least a month to process. but you can try calling them to check, maybe next week? i did email them 2 weeks ago. that was about 3 weeks after my interview, but they gave me those usual "application still under consideration, will inform outcome due course" reply.

oic... hey btw i'm guessing you're a girl right? since you don't have to go NS after poly?

mine is for MSO post and dunno if got any training. this thread not much info on MSO.

for ICA specialist, the waiting time seems to vary according to the past pages i read. all the best though! :s12:

Just wondering, are tattoos a big issue for ICA specialist position? Not visible ones though. Like those on the back.
