I agree with what jgyy1990 just said.
Cannot imagine a size of 50 per cohort per financial institution (FI) all at one shot. The relevant dept will be overwhelmed. Not realistically possible in headcount and huge budget for an 'army' of new recruits.
I think each FI can only take a small size of of less than 10 per cohort in view of 'trying' to convert them to full time position if the trainee meet their expectation and got budget for new headcount.
As much as possible, we do hope each and everyone of us will be given a chance to make it and embark on a new career with the TFIP. cheers and prays.

Read carefully, they claimed to provide 1.2k positions thru the combination of SGUnited and TFIP which are 2 very different entity. SGUnited Traineeship Program is catered for people who recently graduated from 2019 onwards. So unless you are fresh grads, this program do not matter for most of us.
I highly doubt they will offer 1.2k positions for TFIP alone. Imagine paying 1200 people with 5.5k salary for 2 years.
5500sgd * 24months * 1200positions = 158.4 million SGD
forking out over 100 million SGD just to support slightly over 1000 people and their families over 2 years is simply not feasible for the government. Anyway for now TFIP total position for 2020 is estimated to be 140 people. Hopefully they will exceed their claims though.
Increasing training slots for 2020 I find that difficult to achieve. Based on this thread, it seems that not a lot of people got notified of their technical assessment results, it may be that too many people are lurking or not aware of this thread. And up till now we have only been accessed by IBF and the training provider, the financial institute have yet to even review our CV.
But on a bright side, there are incentive for the hiring manager to take us for 2 years if they deem us suitable for the job cause first all of we are not within the company headcount, secondly our salary are mostly paid by the government. None of the COVID budget talks by the government will help to cover 2 years worth of wages.
If you cut training allowance by half, many people will complain and they will take the job less seriously. This is a 2 year commitment program plus there is no bonus at all.
To me 5.5k is indeed a lot of money even without any CPF contribution at all. Some people are complaining cause they are currently holding a position with much higher salary.
Anyway I only hope that for next week webinar, they will provide us with a clearer timetable on what to expect. The waiting time is too long for me.
