Frequently Asked
Questions
3. Can WSDip applicants choose the company they want to work in?
Applicants can choose from a list of participating companies during the WSDip intake exercise.
However, they must attend interviews conducted by the company and be employed by the
company, before starting WSDip Programme.
4. What do employers look for at the selection interview for WSDip applicants?
Like most recruitment processes, it is important for WSDip applicants to show good work attitude
and passion for the job. Being interested in the company and displaying willingness to add value
will help the applicants as well.
As this is a Diploma-level programme, employers also expect applicants to be strong in knowledge and
skills learnt from previous Nitec / Higher Nitec courses.
5. Can Nitec / Higher Nitec students of non-feeder courses qualify for WSDip courses that they
really like?
It is possible for Nitec / Higher Nitec students of non-feeder courses to be accepted in WSDip
courses that they really like. However, approval is on a case-by-case basis and the employer has
to say yes as well.
If the applicant is accepted, he / she will not get the sign-on incentive.
6. In the scenario where the intake period seems quite far off from the Operationally Ready
Date (ORD), what can prospective WSDip students do in the meantime?
If waiting time for the next intake period is long, those who are interested can try to get jobs in
areas related to the course, in order to better understand job expectations.
7. Is there a bond period after the WSDip? If yes, how long is it?
Most companies do not impose a bond period after the WSDip. For those which do, bond periods
typically range from 1.5 to 2 years. However, this information must be shared with applicants
before the start of the course.
