    Assistant Head

    Singapore3 to 4 years in the role, former employee
    Great training ground
    The good thingsGreat training ground for those who have just entered the workforce. Lots of exposure to industries, companies & other government bodies. Insights into economic policies & industry development strategy.
    The challengesLimited opportunities if you are not in Admin Services or a scholar. Over-emphasis on academic qualifications leading to glass ceiling for many capable junior officers who found it hard to advance, even after investing in getting a degree (as this was not recognized). Many good ones leave after a while.
