You can always try. ACCA is a professional degree which some banks will consider favourably

Which bank and what position should I apply for in order to get such a high pay for fresh grads. whistling.gif

Do you have a choice now ?  laugh.gif

Look at their ads and apply all lah. Don't be too choosy  doh.gif

Foreign banks starting pay is higher than local banks. But you can start with local banks and then jump to foreign bank later

My choice is to stay at my current firm or jump ship lor. started working 2 months only.

For it to be on such a high pay, will I be required to work on sales basis? (Commission based etc).

Won't it be better for you to stay for a year or so and nego for +10% or +20% increment?

I jumped ship within 1 year, but they didn't want to increase my pay with mere excuse that I was a fresh grad with not enough experience to back me up. Only difference is way, way better benefit.

If the increment is for 10% or 20% I don't mind staying at my current firm. But I saw increment of 60% my current pay Lols.
