  according to the list i'm supposed to bring these items:

  • 3 pieces plain white t-shirts (polo or round-necked)
  • 2 pieces plain white shirts (short-sleeved)
  • 2 pieces white singlets
  • 2 pieces black trousers or slacks
  • 2 pieces black shorts
  • jogging shoe
  • stationeries
  • toileteries

  alright i understand the jogging show downwards but wouldn't they supply the shirts and trousers? or no?

  once again, i'm going in training as a regular not serving my ns, if there's any difference.

  thanks dude/dudettes :)

  Hey, Just wanna ask u a ques. Did u went for medical check up? The one at raffles medical group? If you do, how long after the check up before they inform you to go for bond signing? 2 weeks?

  Hey guys!

  I went for my checkup on 18 june same as u anura, =p got a glimpse of my report and im fully fit for the job. But so funny eh, i only received the medical checkup letter and not the appointment letter. =( haix. donno still got chance not.

  hi anura. hi goldtimber.

  i went to my check up on 12 may, with the view of being appointed as a PO (trainee) on 9 june and the bond-signing was sandwiched in between (5 june).

  however, i got a call from spf saying that there was a delay and in the end i went for my bond signing on the 16 june.i'm supposed to report to hta on 7 july and am also supposed to sign my letter of appointment the day before that.

  i think the waiting time from medical to appoinment varies - depending on  your luck. wish you all the best though. hope you get that call soon :)

  i've got a solution - bug them.

  i mean give them a call and ask. if they say still processing, then that means you're still in the running. that's what i did actually.

  anyway, in the event that you're rejected, they'll still give you call. so just relax for now. no point in getting all upset and worried about something you have no control on.

  caleb_chiang:

  i thought so too. that's why i'm posting this thread. any idea caleb?

  goldtimber89:

  don't e-mail. give them a call at their hotline. and if they say still processing, means you're still being considred, which is good news :)

  plain white tshirt dunnid so many, mebe 1 enough. white shirt definitely need to buy, because i have been in HTA for 1 mth and they still havent issued the white walk-out shirts. buy from beach road can le.

  singlets you definitely want to buy more than 2, maybe at least 3 if you plan to wash or 5 if you are lazy. the polyester material of the uniform makes it extremely uncomfortable to wear if you aren't wearing a singlet.

  black trousers won't be needing, just bring 1 pair in case. pt pants same as white t shirt. stationaries wise, bring a black/blue pen AND a red pen.

  jogging shoes can just wear in, trust me you would want to bring in as little as possible. 

   

  so far the things you have to wait longest for are the white shirts and probably size 9(iirc) jogging shoes. they are sometimes out of stock for some items

  oh and if you happen to be in delta coy, come to 2nd floor room 24 look for me LOL
