hi chester,

need your insight/help.. since you did mentioned about reducing balance loan here, is it a monthly reducing balance or annually reducing balance type?

does the bank allows pre-payment to your staff loan on top of your regular payment?

hi chester,

thanks for the pointer.. but wouldn't it be better to enquire from the branch/loan officer instead? i'm sure they can
explain better regarding staff loan better than hr? (pardon my pun, but some hr has retorted to just admin role)

a month waiting for processing is definitely worth the wait, considering the amount you can save/leverage here. at least you can put good capital to work harder..

i understand that you guys get additional 1% for deposits, how about foreign currency fd? are you guys given additional percentage or a waiver to the bid-ask spread (or the buy-sell difference)?

say, given the choice.. would you prefer to work in maxis or cimb?

nabelon,

All working experience are good, even though they might not be relevant to the banking industry.

Regarding your 3 values : "1. reducing cost 2.human relations 3.problem solving." Careful with what you claim that you can do. I would definitely drop the first value if i were you. Imagine if the interviewer ask you how are you going to reduce cost.... what are you going to answer? Cost reduction usually falls under the agenda of the higher level personnel. Juniors will not have the authority to implement any change even if you see an opportunity there.

As I see that you are only applying for a fresh graduate position, go for the typical "I am willing to learn and contribute" type of values to avoid uncomfortable situations.

thx chester. so now that i can't hide my identity...hehehehe...

Hi guys, i went CIMB HQ interview recently.

The interviewer told me tat CIMB consumer banking payout 12mths bonus last yr (thou i presume only key performers got it), can any cimb-ian confirm this?  this is crucial to my decision making coz i'm banking on this payout to offset my paycut at cimb...explained below..

The hr told me tat my current pay is beyond their range for AM...hence asked me for 13% paycut n hope for huge bonuses at year end....not sure to believe or not?

Lastly, does cimb values its performing employees?  Coz my plan is to work very hard & get promoted in 2 yrs time...is this far from realistic in cimb or workable?

I know maybank gives free parking to its staff inside Menara Maybank, does Cimb do the same?

Advise from cimb-ians is very much appreciated...thanks!

Hi! Anyone working in the CIMB in Jln Raja Laut there?

hi, din meant to doubt u...i hv asked 2 CIMB employees currently working there, n they said its true on the 12mths potential performance based bonus.

u can tell bcoz u r ex-cimb?

Hi all,
