I'm going for an interview with iCIMB for a post of Electronic Banking Officer on contract basis. Anyone has any idea about this company?
Is working on contract basis is ok?

contract after 6 mth/1 yr u will be out of a job.

This is for 1 year contract. Is there any possibility they will continue the contract or take us into permanent position?

u wont know until u join.

some company have contrak for project purpose.

some use contract for staff for 1st year and later extend, or convert to perm.

i dunno CIMB so i cannot tell u.

contract staff means after certain period no job... jobless

So am i advisable to take this job? I'm quite interested but i'm afraid since I dont have any experience working on contract basis.

A quick question. Are you working now? If not, then why not give it a try? Why worried about whether got job or not after 6 months / 1 year?
If someone perform well, I don't see any reason why the boss won't want to continue using you.

How is the interview would be? can anyone give some insight?

I think interview would be similar to CIMB Bank. You will do some IQ/Objective question and a few subjective. Then interview by the department that hiring you. If they want you, you will go last round interview with HR (which generally means you pass already).

I heard these day they are taking ppl into iCIMB instead of CIMB ..

icimb is backend processing

it's not like cimb

icimb supports cimb like doing cheque processing, etc.

i was offered a job immediately after interview but declined it. just talking during interview. no tests

icimb office is at near menara tm/ kerinchi LRT.
the people th ere were walking aroundi n slippers, wearing working clothes
very laid back

and i think very little opportunities for growth

wearing slippers is it due to sembahyang time? I think it is normal for Malay folks.

sorry to revive this. is there any ICIMB? I couldn't find any thread similar to this.

I beg to differ.

There is a staff, who worked as contract basis for the first year, in a Japanese MNC. The HR promised to convert to permanent after the contract ended, and told the staff if performance is good, nothing to worry about.

But after 1 year, this staff's contract gonna extended for 1 more year, though getting B+ in the MBO.

@debbiesys
meaning the staff has failed to meet expectations of the hiring manager

If its says 6 months contract and I am very sure 6 months no ups no downs.

Unless you can sell your self in that 6 months , yeah the chances are They Might take U.
So , technically 6 months, but its UP 2 u how U want to Progress

All The Best

Hope someone can answer this thread.

Got an interview from iCIMB, actually called by them asking whether I am interested or not. Due to lousy signal, I barely could hear them speaking to me.

I am with engineering background but I dont know where I can fit in them.

Anyone please enlighten me ?

hi khinfai,

actually i got a similar call last week. im with engineering background and currently working in technical projects. they arranged an interview for me but i didnt go coz just like u, i have no idea where i could possibly fit in. (i even tot it was a scam at first )

so did u go to the interview?

Hmm, I'm very doubtful about the interview. Probably they just want you to do sales. Typical bank and insurance company tactics.

really? i actually thought it was a scam. but the person who called me had my complete resume n even interviewed me a lil bit on the phone.

i asked her to tell me more abt the position n she explained that in the position, i wud be dealing a lot with IT tools and handling vendors. since my banking knowledge is limited to withdrawing salary every end of month, i have no idea wut that is supposed to mean hehhehheh

Added on May 18, 2011, 4:15 pmoh so u did go to the interview and even get the job. mind telling us wut is it all about?

The only way to find out the truth is attend the interview. I've past experience with insurance company which asked me attend interview for HR post. The first interview is OK, but in the second interview they started to persuade me to become insurance agent...i ran away...

mr.wang, actually the job is backend processing. i'm pretty sure you dont have to do sales. just deal with papers and computers, that's all. my friend used to work there, and now i also got the interview, my friend encourage me to work there as they offer you a lot of experience and learning too.

working environment was good plus friendly staff( and it depends on which department). i was there in electronic banking dept, monitoring. superb gaban strict bos + hell workloads. but working environment + staff was hell yea! nice collegue tho.

Back office processing is very boring, are you sure can learn things??? Work load is heavy man..

I don't argue with the fact of nice colleague though.

So,how about the salary?

So you are saying getting a B+ in MBO is still a failure to the hiring manager?

You are one of the forumers here well known as a 'hardworking' and 'doesn't mind to work more', but it doesn't mean you can simply judge the person incapable.

the job scope is like what im doing right now. what is the range salary if working there?

their salary for fresh RM1900..Got info from insider..If have any vacancy,pls let me know..

How do I apply with iCIMB?
Can I send my resume to their HR email?
Called up the CIMB group HR and they gave this careers@cimb.com
Well no hurt trying.

Just resigned from iCIMB last month...the job is ok...Salary RM1900 for fresh grad...good for people who wants some experience...

i already interview with sales mnger at his branch, and after the intrview he says that i just need to wait for calling from hr .
there, almost 1week but i didnt received any call yet from hr. and i just called the mnger and he says he already set up all my resume and application to hr.
i lil bit worried and want to know how long they takes to call me for interview? lets say after 2weeks i didnt received any call from them thats means im not selected?

anyone is from GIOD-GT CIMB Group @ plaza damansara?
how was the bonus for 2011 ?

any more info about i-cimb?

anyone working here ? how's the career growth ? just already went for an interview, 1 year contract basis for electronic banking.

Sorry bump old thread.

My friend went to interview for this position. Now they renamed the position as Operation Officer. Basically, the job scope is still the same, doing the processing.

Based at Bangsar South, salary around RM1800-RM2000. They are conducting walk-in-interview this month.

Since my friend is a fresh grad, she went to interview for this position. There are so MANY candidate out that went to the interview.
So many jobless fresh grads I guess.

The HR mentioned they will hire more than 50 person. This position is still 1-year contract basis but will be converted to permanent if the performance is good.

So her chance is quite slim since volume of application is really high.
