How come kena diao by them? I remember i did badly for first interview due to too nervous. And after a month, i receive SMS from recruitment centre for second interview.
Hey GUYS!
Im graduating from my Higher NITEC on Apr next year 2015. I completed my NS Medical-Check-Up and got a PESBL3.
Planning on joining as a Junior PO next year after grad but.... I wanna ask when is the recommeded time to apply? Havent NS but want join...under Minimum Term of Engagement right?
Mind sharing with ur pal here? Especially the interview and stuffs!
Paperwormy: ya 4 times for spf. 1 time VSC. 1 time CNB. Lol. Hope so should be consider in when appoint for the medical screening.
They havent get back to you regarding postpone the bond signing date from weekday to weekend? If is weekend. Is more easier for everyone also. Nobody else would take leave during weekdays just to go be the sureties sia..
Gwai0228: no worries. Hope everything will be smooth for you. Dont worry. I also feel damn nervous and having cold sweat during my interviews. Is ok to be nervous. I also told the officers i am nervous. Lol. Most importantly you have to be firm when answering back their questions. Fyi. The 2nd interview, they will ask you back the same questions. Like eg. "Why do you want to join spf?". The lowest rank during my 2nd interview was a "Deputy Superintendent", "Superintendent" and a plain clothes lady. Should be from the HR department.. hahaha
ChickenPlusChop: PESBL3? Slightly below the minimum requirement for the spf. But you still can give it a shot. Since you have completed your NS medical screening. Then i think quite soon you will receive your SAF posting. Hahah. My suggestion is you can try to apply around Nov to Dec 2014. Cause the waiting time might take few months. Just to let you know about my waiting time.
09 May 2014 - apply and send CV online.
29 May 2014 - SA and panel interview
20 June 2014 - 2nd interview
16 July 2014 - received call from shenton medical group
18 july 2014 - medical screening
Till to date 28 july no update status.
Other guys out here, some of them had waited for roughly about 6 months for the whole process till they know their bond signing at HTA. From here you can try roughly gauge how long you may have to wait. Hehehe
What you mention about the Minimum Term of Engagement, i have no idea of that. I am unable to help you with this.
As for the interviews. Mostly ask questions is;
1) what makes you and why do you want to join the spf?
2) how and what are you able to contribute to the force?
3) if you are in the force. How well can you see yourself in 5 or 10 years time?
4) your background check. Eg: whats your parent and siblings occupation?
5) what do you do normally during your free time?
6) will you go for further studies?
And few more questions.. hahaha
Can check with Paperwormy and Horizontalway for more info.. Maybe i miss out somethings. Hehe

You can just apply for JPO after you graduate from ITE, but lower chance to be selected. Cuz they might thought you just wan to skip NS thats why you apply for spf. But still, there are still some pre-enlistee inside the force. So before you went interview, must do some homework lo xD
Since you're higher nitec, i suggest you should further on your studies and get a local diploma before signing to the force. Go in after 3 months sergeant leh, and higher chance to be promoted ssgt after years.
For the interview questions they would likely to ask
What is your 2 strengths and 2 weaknesses
How would you overcome your weakness
Why dont you choose to further studies first
Hey Paperwormy and Horizontalway! I m having the same enlistment & Bond signing dates as you guys!
Horizontalway, we will be room mates! I am a female too! hahaha.. :D
