Anyone work in Bank Negara before? Is bank negara a good place to work? I know the benefits look good and attractive but not sure how's the working life there and the management. Seem like there are quite many who resign there also. I am planning to apply on for IT department.

good.....

Bank Negara scholars come back get paid how much? sky-high?

thanks. no la, i am not bank negara scholars. Somehow, managed to find out there is a IT vacancy and I am one of the vendor who support their system. So, thinking good or not to jump ship

Of course la good.

Government woo

ya should be stable ya

but i heard that the salary there is below market one but benefits are good la.

Government salary memang low.

But pension till death

time value of money mang

Don't misunderstand. Bank Negara is a badan berkanun, not fully government. Like Inland Revenue Board (Lembaga Hasil Dalam Negeri), they got their own salary schemes, their own remuneration packages and hire their own staffs. Their salary is higher than that of government's, but no, they don't have pension for their staffs.

Unlike government, where their salary and remuneration schemes could be found on the internet (just ask google) and let the Suruhanjaya Perkhidmatan Awam (SPA) doing the recruitment works for them. These people have pensions. Kira fair la kan, gaji sikit, sebab tu ada pencen. Hehe.

But BNM's still one of the best employers out there, so I heard.

wow, thanks for the info. ya bank negara i think is semi private. okay, i sent my resume already and will see how it goes

alot of leng lui

let us know your results. Good luck

Sure, thanks

what is your results?

I don't get the job in Bank Negara. My degree result not qualified. They need at least second class upper even though I got 10 years working experience and 3 years supporting their cheque clearing system in bank negara

Is it easy to go into BNM IT position nowadays?

Define "easy". Haha.

Back in 2016 i applied for IT position in BNM. Cleared the assesment and group discussion but didnt got the job. However, their HR kind enuff to recycle my resume for IT Audit position.

Same story. Failed to get the job.

Third time the charms. HR once more push my resume into different dept which in need of IT background as tech risk analyst. Been working here since then..

How did you apply? I applied Jobstreet but they always send back email say unable to proceed. Once there was a position that asked for a 2000 word essay. Put all my brain cell writing it yet no response.

There are certain condition that you need to meet. Example your GPA and salary cannot exceed certain range. BNM can't offer big competitive salary but their benefits are super. 30 days annual leave imagine lol

Other than annual leave, what else?
