I see that you have a friend from XXX Junior College, also applying for Nanyang Scholarship. If I only had one scholarship left, who should I give it to, and why?
There is no perfect recipe for the selection process. Admits vary each semester. As usual masters admit is easier to obtain than PhD for one thing, PhD admit is determined by the no. of scholarships available for the semester intake.
Why do you want to join DSTA?
Why do you deserve this scholarship?
Be prepared to answer questions during your talk since most researchers will interrupt and ask you questions during your talk. It's very important to maintain a good pace with your talk and keeping it within the time limit. So practice is key. I would consider the interview as more of a discussion than one sided questioning. The one thing everyone seemed interested is where I see myself in a few years time and why I want to do a postdoc.
What is your past experience?
What are your career objectives after the postdoc?
What was the most difficult situation I faced during my PhD work and how did I handle it?
