the most significant benefits is work from home, i think it depends on the job scope as well.

benefits more or less is similar with all companies out there, assume it as standard, medical, insurance, etc.

i do more concern about the job description and career path.

Sorry Paul just read ur post! Nothing to add on.. already shared whats there to be shared hehe.

Benefits here are so-so only.. I've heard of worse benefits.. also had worked in another company whose benefit is 90% better than SWIFT's..

Annual leave 18 not including gazetted leave.. gazetted leave are added to your AL.. meaning PH that falls on weekends. So each year at least 20 days cuti la I would say.. the AL will be increased after working for a few years with swift.

Got maternity coverage, dental, vision, inpatient, outpatient - the normal ones.. if you need to know the specific amount can PM me..

SWIFT gives us a sort of a gift after our first year anniversary working here. They allocate RM2000 per year to claim for certain things like parents' medical, alternative medicine, your phone bill, internet bill, gym or other club membership etc. etc.

My favorite benefit is of course working from home and the flexi hours smile.gif ohhhh and the free food stock in the pantry haha

Cannot disclose about bonus.. but the bonus enough to make me happy la but note that I never worked in any company which gives out bonuses haha of course la happy kan.. increment was good enough for me too..

As for promotion, this is not easyly given here at SWIFT. Looking at how long and how GOOD the overseas (and some local) staff took to get promoted, I wouldn't be surprised if I ever get promoted lol. But as long as I get the bonus and increment according to my performance, I'm a happy kid already.

Updates on my application for Business Analyst ( Business Intelligence).

There are total 3 rounds of interviews

Managed to complete the 3rd round which is video conference to Belgium.

As the matter of result, it takes so long and time wasting, probably around 2 weeks.

After the 3rd round interview (before Raya), HR told me to wait for 1-2 weeks, in the end, I all in on swift and did not find other opportunities.

And today, got replied from swift. *heartbroken*

Position that I've applied for Associate Business Analyst (Business Intelligence) (Finance & Accounting)

There are 3 stages of interview

1. Senior HR
2. Hiring Manager
3. Hiring Manager (HQ) (Belgium)

The first is to deliver more about yourself by understanding the job scope. I tend to ask regarding the career path of Associate Business Analyst (Business Intelligence), however this question which will be answered on Stage 2.

So far on the stage 1 is to show your confidence about yourself and especially on the job description.

I would say that I'm lucky enough that HR ask me to schedule for the 2nd stage interview.

The company environment is open community with hot desk concepts, means where u can sit wherever u want.

Probation is about 6 months, once passed, you get to work from home (as mentioned above) and it's subject for approval.

for public transports users, no worries, there is a link bridge from Kerinchi LRT station to Bangsar South smile.gif

Nodee, anything to add on? biggrin.gif

I have an interview this coming Monday and I will be taking the lrt. I just want to know how to get to the Tower 3 from the link bridge. Thanks

I think I answered some of ur qs above.. As for OT.. I'm not sure.. I don't think we have OT.. Not many people stay back for long hours here except i think the finance peeps. Some stays back if they have conf calls with the overseas stakeholders etc.. But u can always join from home anyways..

Always on call.. Don't think so.. We do have outsourced support team who works on shifts. It really depends on which team you join.. Maybe some teams do have it but I'm really not sure. It's a no no for my team, that one I can confirm hehe

Basically this is just my experience on the interview process which just happened few weeks back.

1st interview
i) interview with senior HR
ii) Sit for an exam

2nd interview (if the 1st interview is successful)
i) interview with Hiring Manager
ii) interview with the HQ(Belgium)

If you get an offer, then you know you have pass the 2nd interview and welcome to Swift. smile.gif
