I wonder if any lowyat.net fellows going for the exam tomorrow? (8pm, 23 Nov 2016)
I am doing my last minute preparation and if you are going to the exam too, let's discuss about it.
Those sat for the exam before, any words of advice? Thanks.

drink tequila til 5am. good luck

I tot the exam is online?

Yes It's an online exam.

No use. They already have someone for the job.
It's just for formality.
100% of gomen job like that one.

A friend of mine got the job through the exam. Your argument is invalid.

u will eat drink sleep breath dedak all the way.

Xpyh la apply gov. As it is dh berlambak overload.

Goodluck,hope it will not lag like previous year

Never apply gomen job..

I don't get your point.
My intention of getting this job is to do something good for my country.
I was born here.
This is my homeland.

nah soalan ptd.

I took the exam last year, and selected to INTAN. Didnt pass PAC session INTAN as I am a little overweight & didnt physically fit.

The exam is easy. Maybe need to practises more on mathematic as it is time consuming. If I recall correctly there are few questions on investment topic, like depreciation values of your car or how much you make in 15 years if you are keep menabung rm500 per month.

best of luck. one of my kolik will be taking the exam i guess. she bought a book to study bout it.

hahahahahahaahahahahaha

if that's your intention, you will not get it.

your intention is do make sure the ruling party is the government, and anything other than the ruling party is enemy of the government.

I will probably pass on that.

good luck. Just make sure u know about current events

Sorry to hear that but hey, thanks for the tips. Please try again next year.

im going to jaga ur exam tomolow

If u got the job, u must be pro gov, cannot posted nonsense thinbs on fb or other social media. Everything need to be controlled. Good luck.

most of the questions are mathematic. if u are good in add math, no need to do revision. its easy as one two three.

Thanks for the input mate.

untung laa dpt interview
aku dh 4tahun xdpt2
SPA login password pun dh lupa

Nice. I am math genius ！

how old are u?

ada kabel 90% suckses.

Thanks mate. I got your point.

Cuba lagi sekali. Always give yourself a last chance.
Jangan putus asa.

Went until panel interview that is the last stage for interview last year. Just normal current issues, some akta and some math questions. All the best

good luck
iinm 400 intake this time

Almost 35 and this is my first attempt for Gov job.

Got fitness test? How come i see all high gov official hippo level only

Math exam i sure fail, even on simple questions. Fitness no issue, england mastery no issue

Ya Tuan. Please jaga good good. We are doing this for the future generations.

Lucky I hired not by merit

That sounds great. I am ready for this.

You have the rights to voice up opinions.
But it wouldn't help.
I don't agree, period.

Untunglah

Need to run over the hill, like 2km within given time. Over than given time, rejek terus. haha..

At the time I have been hospitalized for 4 months, my body not yet ready for long distance running.

Out of 50 questions, there are like 15 math questions. Practical problem solving math we use everyday. I am lucky as I working as cashier previously so my mental aritmethic are quite good. If you are calculator person than you might didnt have enough time to compute the answers.

Other than that, IQ question. This one might be challanging too if you are calculator person.

PTD here... I went through all this process just like my Chinese.. Malay.. Indian.. Iban.. Dayak.. Colleagues..

Since school, math was my ultimate weakness. In uni, it was the sole reason i couldnt get 1st class (cgpa a bit more to reach it).

So anything even with simple math, I'll surrender.

2km run easy only. Not even long distance. How many minutes was given?

Let them.. Haha... They'll miss their private sector life soon...

Tahniah.. rugi tak apply ptd..

Eh,,, dengar macam very high pangkat ni. Salary range how much? Very hard to imagine the exam difficulty without knowing the payload....

Ayam got invited but dunno want to take the exam or not

Macam sudah hopeless with current gov servant
So bodo and macai to listen to the menteri
If i attend the exam and selected, i might be hated by those dato dato pengarah

Dont listen to him. U can give ur opinion but must have good explaination. Dont hesitate.

But dont over do till it becomes a debate

Nice to hear that. Just one question, do you happy with the job?
Because happiness is the priority in my life.

Putrajaya?

did the exam for my friend last time. quite easy imo. same as other exam for gov post.

my friend fail her interview though.

I believe if you do something with good will, you are not far from the truth.
Rocky once said, it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward.
Think about it.

happy ... well .. my private sector life before is more happy ... more flexibility ... can jump company every year ..

gov career progress is a bit slow .. but it will never stop ... private is very fast .. but at one point you cannot move .. unless you have your own business ..

yes

That's cheating.
And yet she failed.
I am not surprised.

haha. they said interview part super hard. first and second stage super easy.

Ok. I will prepare for that later.

jabatan mane?

ts, got cable or not? if not, then good luck.
our era is not like 30 years before where degree holders are rare.

This is how you eliminate other people

You are natural born optimist, arent u? 😂😂😂😂

I forgot how many minutes. Got many unker apply together and many of them stuck at physical test. Unless you are young, single and fit, 2 km should be no problem. Running over the slope hill are not easy you know. I am not eager to be PTD anyway.

Goodluck TS. My GF also having her exam tomorrow

Thats after years in gov. If u see new recruits, they are quite fit

I'm not an optimist, if u know me. I know my fitness level, so i can say la 2km no issue. Unless they say within 10 mins.

2.4km in 12 mins is years back .. now they do bleep test ... passing mark for bleep test is level 5 and above ...

haha as I thought, no way u gonna answer. Was waiting for it

At my age of 35, I think i am still fit to run 2km in 10 minutes. Was my state champion in 100m freestyle back then.

keyword:become macai and everything gonna be fine

Once you pass the online test, you have to sit for psychometric test. That one just to know your attitude meyy. Then, have to go for PAC (physical test). There, you have to undergone fitness test in the morning. Once pass, have to go for written test and the next day have to go for public speaking session. Once pass PAC, have to go for final stage that is the Panel Interview. All the Pengarah and Dato Dato are there to evaluate you.

All the best!

Although got no real age limit, I feel 35 dah tua. Ur Kadet mates will b mostly fresh or mid20's. you'll b the uncle of the group. Kadet will be very physically and mentally taxing.

But no harm trying though.

Good Luck TS. all the best for your exam, need more good pipul serving our gomen.

Hi TS, goodluck to both of us. I passed the online test and PAC for the last 2 years but failed the interview. Hopefully this year I will be luckier.

jom la kumpul ramai 2 n jawab sama 2
kalau fail
fail ramai 2

1st step to master the songlap skill

3 times I went for it;

1) passed exam, PAC, failed interview (fresh graduate)
2) passed exam, (no PAC), failed interview
3) (no exam, no PAC) failed interview

they actually keep your name for few years. the third time they interview I wasn't prepared as they invited me few days before the interview, and I was earning 50% more than PTD salary + allowance, so no pressure for me.

good luck for all the candidates.

Gov okay what?

kalau company ni takut kene tendang

i oso got invitation for the online exam tonight, still dunno wanna do or not

no study or do revision or what, sked later just waste time only.

but maybe for fun i'll just take it tonight.

gov jobs nowadays also got contract based.
very hard to get into permanent, unless got vacancy & of course follow seniority and cronyism.

so during contract they can kick you out anytime they want.
so apa beza liao?

What a joke.

If you really wanna do something good for your country, join the army/police forces.

What's the job scope?

High rank become ambassador?

But i believe ts punya ni kerja permanent iinm

But if contract, yes they can kick you anytime

why wanna be PTD? i thought PTD is the sampah masyarakat of gomen servants...no use liaoo...just umno bootlickers..fuuuuu

good luck ts, no need to listen to any of the negative/jealous comments. you make your own path in life and work towards it.

10 years ago everyone wants to be a PTD, one of the position in Gov where you can climb up the rank very quick. Needs to be good looking, pleasant appearance, charismatic bla3.

Those are the years. If you have those attribute this days, better be an actress/ model/ instafamous/ startup business or at least involve in Sales department.

That kind of question that I got. Lol. Can't remember the exact question 😵

PTD no contract iinm. Only normal 41 got

I'm already near 10 years working.
Last 2 years, time dah pass exam for research officer gred41, then pegi interview, they ask me alot of technical scientific question. Just answer them as to what i know.

The most shocking thing is, when i ask them about salary, they say follow the tangga gaji la.....if follow tangga gaji means salary will start from about 2.4K...erk??

This is madness, u already getting at least double or triple of that, how can cope with that salary?

End of interview, just thank them panels, walk away without having any hope. Glad they didn't select me. Even of they did, i would reject, its too low

Most decline gov jobs bcoz of the pay. Mainly non malays. After that complain gov only take in malays. When gov want to raise gov servant pay, people complain also.

I cannot brain

The pay is not appreciating experienced worker. Cannot like that. At least must have a mechanism to offer an experienced candidate. Must see what salary they are getting at and see the related useful skill/experience they have, then offer a different starting salary.

If already working for years, suddenly ask to take fresh or starter salary, that is counter progress.

I lost more than half of my private sector pay when I joined gov. I prefer job security compared to pay. And I was from different dept b4 becoming PTD and with masters my starting pay a bit higher. Add allowence the pay for me is reasonable.

Some people dont see the benefit in the long run. U create contacts, and if u are a PTD, ur contacts are not low tiers. Its easy to make side income ( not rasuah ). Not only that, it will be easier if u have any dealings with the gov. Sometimes PTD just straight meet the officer in charge to get something done . At times even a phone call is enuff.

and after u retired, if u play it right, u may hold high positions in some glc.

There are pro n cons in every sector. But for me personally, I care more on job security. I can also know more the inner workings of the gov where outsiders dont know. Im also surving my country And can have time surf k . hahahaha

according to tangga starting pay is 1.7k. Eat grass and stay under bridges?

Nevermind the uncle. I can walk from 8am to 12am midnight for 14 days during my recent trip to europe, my 1.8xm 75kg 23 years old nephew got mad for not enough rest and sekejap rehat sekejap rehat. Selangor Basketball team player somemore.
You have no idea how tough a village-born uncle is. Heavy duty one.
As for the salary, i wouldn't care much as i am financially stable with no commitments and debts.

Depends on luck also ...my sis joined PTD quite easy without cables ...she didn't go for physical test coz got heart problem ...her ex-husband also PTD, got drug problem and went to rehab for 6 months and still remain as PTD now

Wadepakk
Wadepakk
Wadepakkk

That's all i can answer

meh, still the same like previous years.

The ex hubby got charged in court or he surrender himself for rehab?

I don't understand why do people bother to be a PTD. It is the most hated jawatan in the gomen.

All of the J (engineers) people hated them
All of the DG (teachers) people hated them
All of the U (doctors) people hated them
...and the list goes on and on.

not charged but his family force and send him to rehab ...his boss very good still want to accept him ... MIA and didn't turn for work many times when he's high pon the boss still wanna keep him

Well, some of those PTD are not from engineering background yet try to act superior than engineers...

Reason people like PTD position is cepat naik pangkat one.

Because PTD is high keras

So TS? Macamana exam? peluh ketiak x

I tried 2.4km running slope for 12 mins, but manage to get 14 on 1st try. Believe me, 12 min sprint is hard
