Hi No9,
I believed i met the minimum requirement with my
distance-learning pass degree from a recognised oversea uni...with
avg D grade.
but perhaps they prefer those with local degree, with hons
bah.
With my avg degree... most prob im on their waiting list.
Hi Envisage, it is okay if its PO, you can start as PO first, then
if you perform well, there is always a chance for promotion to SPO
around 2-3 years later. The reason for maybe putting you on a
waiting list is perhaps the degree you have does not come with
Honors. Is it an engineering degree? Cuz which course you took
could also be related.
Anyway, wish you good luck! When going for interview, prepare
all your stuff, try to sell yourself not only in academic. If you
are some leader in any organization or internationally recognized
organization, you should put them in CV and also try to mention it
in interview. Eg. sports leader/captain, some society president,
SAF Sergeant/Officer, received some awards or been a volunteer in
charity etc. These will show that you have leadership,
initiative, public service attitude, etc. And think about
situations in school or work when you need to multi-task and team
work. Lastly, try to get powerful people to act as your
referees.
And, try to meet up those in the forum that has already gone for
the interview, e.g. Anshinkan, etc and obtain advice from them.
Wish you all the best!
