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.

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.

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 biggrin.gif

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

As per stated in my previous reply, please read more about FinTech, Digital Innovation for Financial Instituion, Industry 4.0 and during the IV mention those keyword at contribution question. This will help you a lot to gain advantage compared to other candidate as not all software developer know about this.

I work in financial institution as a programmer so that's why I think applying BNM is quite easy and the IV is quite easy. Don't worry they won't kill you about technical question as you are not going to be a vendor. When you are working with big firm like GLCs you need to know more about the SOP, Processes, and fundamental of technical things.
So my advice just read up the topic on what I said and make research on banking IT development like Maybank App, QRPay, etc and how it impact society.

Great advice. Thanks ya thumbsup.gif

Hi All,

I am having an interview for a First Level Executive - HR tomorrow in BNM. I am nervous as hell because this year seems like a bad year for me.

Any tips or not-to-do list that I should adhere?

Thanks!

Went for five interviews, all five to the final stage, but just didn't manage to secure it.

Yes, I am preparing right now. Two copies just in case.

In regards to the interview process, I just finished the written exam (to answer 2 questions out of 4) that Sunday. The recruiter sent it to me via email and she was clocking my hour via Whatsapp. So I guess tomorrow's interview is just a face-to-face one?

Got find out why didn't manage to secure it? When reach final stage, usually is deal already. hmm.gif
