I just read the entire thread from the beginning. Fuh!

Anyway, here's my Q. Just say a person with Masters apply for PTD, what are the chances compared to degree holder? Or are they both on the same level? And is there any difference between JPA scholars (who need to be attached to the gov several years) and non-JPA scholars? Or do you have to be a JPA scholar to apply for PTD?

Yes, JPA scolar n loan is in high chance to get PTD. But how much actually PTD's pay? 

AFAIK those who enter will automatically be in P1T3 the minimum....some might be in P1T5, 6 or even 10

Hi guys, what's the qualification to apply for the post and how you guys apply, Pls give me the link. It seems the pay not too bad.

Just call me Tenno...

I think in the interview letter, they did state there what cert U have to bring along rite ? So arrange Ur certs according to that order la.

For the straight A thingy, maybe if U apply thru JPA only U have to worry about that la. Thru SPA, shud be no problem. I got a third-class degree okay.... Believe in Urself, it's how U potray Urself in the interview, show them reason why they shud hire U...

True. They will select U based on Ur qualifications & previous working experience. However, they do allow U to list 3 choices of preferred ministry. Dun count of getting 'em though. I'm working in a ministry I didn't list. Every civil servant will have the opportunity to further Ur study, especially PTD. Not just masters, PhD as well. & it's full-time paid leave (half month la). 
If U like what Ur doing now, why leave ? That will be the first question they ask in the interview. Why take the risk of working with ppl U dun like in the first place ?

MCS ? .... hmm... British ? Ur talking about Malaysia or UK ? Did U mean Malayan Civil Service ? Becoz it's 2009 already & we've gained independence from the British for 52 years this year.... & we've stopped calling PTDs MCS for quite sometime already...

I dun like politics as well, but recently I found out that it's a necessary evil. I've only recently registered as a voter & the last PRU was my first time voting.

i just wonder why they take this new batch of ptd in contract basis first.

ptd for someone who loves goverment work..if i not wrong minimum slary for new PTD is 2669.forgot to mention tats for permanent staff.still lower than factory salary..hehehe.i dont hate PTD .dont get me wrong my brother in law PTD..he get scholarship to continue master at japan..im not tat office job person so PTD is out on my thought hahahahah

Congrats & good luck.

These days the ministries have been given the authority to hire contract 41 officers. These officers they dun even go thru SPA, just apply to the respective ministries. Normally they will be given 2 years contract. Cons include not entitled to govt loans, annual leave might be shorter than 30 days, won't be absorbed automatically into permanent service.

Anak saya menjadi PTD 5 tahun lepas. Sekarang dia sudah 3 tahun berada di Berlin.
