Changing Jobscope
When I was appointed in the public service as PTD M41.. I was posted to Industry Division at Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation mainly due to my IT background and my experience at Astro and Panasonic. During that time, I didn’t mind where I’ll be posted because getting experience was far more important that time.
After 1 year ++ working at my division, I was called to undergo Diploma in Public Administration (DPA) for 6 months (until Dec 2009). I’ve been in the course for about 2 months. During this 2 months, I realize that my current jobscope at my division is not related to PTD’s core business. PTD’s core business are:
- Finance
- International Relations
- Human Resource Management
- Economy
- ICT Management
- Social and Infrastructure Management
- District/Land Management
- Security and Defence Management
What I am doing rite now is more related to industrial relations and R&D management. I wouldn’t mind doing this work in the early part of my service but I feel that sooner or later I gotta change my jobscope which is related with PTD’s core. Doing a job related to PTD’s core will help me in the future in terms of promotions and experience. I’m not going to change ministry but maybe I will change my department. I feel like changing to Human Resource Department in my Ministry. I heard there is a vacancy over there. We’ll see how when DPA is over.
