huaiwei SG

Compo??

Destinyapple SG

hmm those no O level de mus do a written compo ma..so how to prepare4 2nd interview?/can any1 giv tips..

houndy SG

eh senoir officer... i know you insp no need compo.. but others take compo ok.. Evil or Very Mad

houndy SG

ok.... let me see.... first and foremost.. depends on your good luck.... 3 rooms and 6 interviewers.. the interviewers come from all over SPF... different interviewers prefer different kinds of people...

1) the most impt thing is to dress smart....wear something nice.. comb your hair.. act decent....

2) Remain clam at all times.. dont panic... or shiver or stammer.. always smile and maintain eye contact.. cause that is well... one of the things a frontline officers do...

3) Always answer your questions in full. do not give half half answers.. and make sure in proper english.. dont give those lah, meh.. or give indesicive answer.. it is YES or NO.. no maybe, i think so. Try to make it like a conversation rather than a Q&A

4) Think what you want to be in 5 yrs time.. if you are those that need to serve 5 yrs MTE... have a plan what you want to be in 5yrs.. they will surely ask you.. if you got no plans, you get no job.. even if you want to stay only for 5 yrs.. must say what you want to be in 10yrs...

5) Do read the papers about crime... know something about the police force... then this advice i can give you lor... the rest is up to you...

Anyway if you all selected and go to TRACOM.. they ask you who recommend you... hmmm....if you dont know anyone... can put my name????..

PM me.. i give you my name and ID.... and also give me your name too... I will buy you lunch... Smile

Walao this is plain sick siah. Now we know why he is so enthusiastic about giving advice! Laughing

huaiwei SG

Er....I think he is merely telling you that assuming you have that 5 year "contract" thingy, then think about what you plan to do at the end of the contract. Do you intend to quit once the 5 years are up? If so, dont say so. Better say you are intending to be in the force for the long term. Wink

Destinyapple SG

hmm so we should not say after sign on for 5 or 10 years i plan to do own business all those la..right..but is hope to continue sign on and help the people and protect the property etc right??

houndy SG

what sick??? it is 5 bucks one person... Smile ....then if everyone go in.. i can fill up the form already...
