police NS time, u sign on 5 yrs which includes ur 2.5 yrs NS.
during the 1st 2.5 yrs, u will receive regular pay (without NS
bonus) after 2.5 yrs u receive the NS bonus included in ur
pay.
Typically, u will normally be posted to land divisions as NPCO for
a year or so. posting varies, if u would like to be posted to a
certain branch, pls let your NPC's CO/OO know so he can recommend u
if that certain branch needs people.
For STAR, u just go for the 1 day 'screening', if u clear it, you
go for a 12 day in-camp selection, if u clear it again u go for 4
mths of basic training and viola, u are a STAR officer. then u will
go for other more specialised courses.
For PCG, obviously u need to go for a course to learn how to drive
the boats etc...
If u sign on after your army NS, its 5 yrs with the NS bonus
