after Finish interview the employer ask me to wait outside a while. Then HR gave me a form “statutory declaration” and ask me to take this form to commissioner for oaths...


Does this means they decide to hire me soon? I’m quite strange with this “oaths”. What’s the use of it ??


I don dare to ask HR whether I will get hire by them coz it will show how desperate I am. Anyone can tell me here ? Thanks

first question is, what thing they want you to declare/take oath for?
hopefully you are not cheating on stuff you give them

I never had this kind of experience before, are they doing background checking on you?

I guess they are doing background checking on you. Once you passed the background check, your % of getting hired is pretty high.

They are doing background check. They will only proceed if you are hired. So, it doesn't mean anything really about your chance.

Each bank differs, depends on hr efficiency. It's a bank Megara requirement for mandatory employment background check for all prospective new staff. To me, nothing is concrete until your employer:
1) Negotiate salary
2) Do medical check
3) Most important is the offer letter

Without 1 or 2 above, I won't even bother about the chances. If 3 comes in, I will spend the normal 2 week deliberating on it.

If you don't have other offer waiting for your response, just wait/ keep applying to others. All the best.

until you have a signed offer letter, you have not gotten the job yet.
