A lot of bad comments here for this position with CTSM

I think i will reject the recruiter who called me for the interview only offer me rm2400+ which is lower than my current salary...

The 2 months contractual bonus is already factored into your base salary. So in actual fact, CTSM employees are earning less than RM 2400. RM 2400 is already inclusive of the contractual bonus. They have duped many people. Only when u are inside, u find out about all this nonsense.


I have shown you the light. Stay far far away from AML or any other positions at CTSM.

Reject it and go find a job at BAT haha. You kill people for a living. Ain't that cool brother. Need a 1st class honours qualification though hehehehe.

HY! i went for the interview today and it went suck. because of my own mistake hehe. the interview is very casual. but u have to do research about this job. i did a research, but i only research about ANTI MONEY LAUNDERING ANALYST. yes u have to know what is the job scope but u have to know what is MONEY LAUNDERING also. and the three steps ( placement, layering n integration) u can find it in google. luckily the interviewer give me second chance tomorrow. hope i can do it better.

hope my advice can help u or other people

remind u, MONEY LAUNDERING n ANTI MONEY LAUNDERING ANALYST are not the same. one is the ''what does it mean by this act'' and the other one is ''what is the job scope'' don't be careless like me hehe

Uhh, you really want this job? Well, good luck buddy.

The fact that the interviewer gave you a second chance shows how desperate they are. In most interviews, once you screw up, you're out.


Yes. And they only pay you RM 2400 for all that trouble.

i pretty much feel that you do sound pretty bitter working here...u noticed that didn't ya?

So how was ur second chance interview with CTSM? Did u get the job? I didnt attend the interview at all as I had rejected the interview after reading all the comments here...

Yes. I'm no longer a cheerful person.

Will submit my resignation letter soon. Time to put a smile back on my face. I would be able to send out a farewell/goodbye bla bla mail to everyone muahahaha. Or maybe I won't.

my 2nd interview went smooth thank GOD!!! it was very casual. the basic is only rm2,400. but i think the experiences are more valuable than that. besides, i'm broke. so need money n just grab whatever chances in front of me, surely the good ones

they said that sometimes i should come on saturday, for the time being i have no problem with that, since i have no commitment but i told them i hope i dont have to come on EVERY saturday (that would be suck) haha they will call within 2 weeks but i dont put too much hope. hehe

Good luck for u

well, to be quite honest, experience is pretty limited...but i think the most important thing u learn here is to be extra particular at things you are working on...kinda like try your best to clean every speck of dust on sight...or at least sweep them under the carpet if u are unable to do so...XD

well, as for saturdays, most team leaders will use the word compulsory working day...so, if u are asked to come, u should come...notice that i didn't use a must...because if some unexpected urgent-important things come up, u will not be able to work la of course

i know that most departments are practicing a minimum of 2-3 saturdays...and the final 1 saturday...depends on which team u are on i guess...XD

hope u enjoy your stay, all the best

Just went for the interview. The recruiter told me that that beside the basic RM2400. There are also OT claim and meal allowance. How true is that?

as for allowance...some team leaders practice different ways of giving it...

but in short, there will be allowance if u complete your work and stay on the required (minimum) working hours to qualify for it

on weekends - rm 100 for 4 hrs
on weekdays - +3hours and u will only be able to claim it when the clock strikes 9pm

may i know what are the minimum qualifications to apply for this position?
having dilemma in finding jobs now T_T

Thanks alot for the insight! I have a second interview with the team leader next week. Do you have any idea what will they ask? No idea should i accept the job or not sigh. Btw the new office is in masjid jamek because apparently the department in citibank is already full. Do you know how is the environment there?

for minimum qualifications, you just drop in your resume and see whether are you called up...who knows, u may get the interview

@ rainie...just read this whole thread for your questions...the answer is there

Yeah RM 20 for OT. Hehehe. You must work for the entire 3 hours or else your boss will tell you to go fly a kite.


No experience needed. Hell, you can be a lawyer, they'd still take you in. Ask yourself this question, do you like to stay in the office for 9 hours and stare at documents and monitor for the whole day?

If you like that, then this is the perfect job for you.

A friend of mine recently attended the interview and told the interviewers that he is an extrovert who likes to meet up with people and socialize. Guess what, they rejected him hahaha.

well... i guess i have no choice .
what i ever thing i also will force my self to do it
because i am in learning stage and currently unemployment for half years already =.=''
no working experience at all
between, for this position, i have check out on the citi career website, there are not offer this position...
but i am quite interest so in this position leh....

If that's the case, All the best and good luck MARINE. Semper Fi!!

To me, every CTSM employee is like a US Marine. They go through a lot of shit and take a lot of punishment. Its a war zone out there.

The question is, how long will you last? hehehe.

never try never know ma
i like challenges

Here's a tip, once you start working at CTSM, continue looking for a better job. They won't be mad at you since everyone is expendable.

Try to find it before you are confirmed because CTSM's resignation notification period after confirmation is 2 months.

Try looking into vacancies at Sime Darby, BAT, CIMB Bank or HSBC. Y'know, companies that pay much much more than CTSM haha.
