Hey, anyone working in public mutual before?How is the starting salary for a

fresh grad (not sales position), bonus, benefits and working environment?

Anyone work as public mutual unit trust agent? Wanted to know if it worth a shot to try? since i am not good in socialising.

Huh? Public Mutual also can pay $2800 for fresh graduate?

Malaysians are not good in comprehension i think, else the impression of Public Mutual = Unit Trust is deeply sticked in people's mind.

thr is mant ot jobs?

Public Mutual HQ is in Bdr Sri Dsara ...
I got an interview there (investment) ... I'm also wondering how's the work environment there ..

Last week .. just finished the interview this week. Dont know pass or not yet.

I like the environment though ...

Thanks, I just got the job offer from them ... Sr Exec, Equity Research ..

Anyone here already working there ?

Thanks

Congratz! Mind to share how much experience you have? and the salary range?

I think its more appropriate to respond via PM ...

I just finished the medical examination and collected the letter ..

They called me for interview also, may I know what they test during the interview? taught or not?

u seems like so familiar in the research field, r u working in research as well?

hi, im going for an interview for research analyst soon in public mutual, any tips or sharing for interview? thanks...

I went for an interview with public mutual recently, for analyst position. What I can say is that the company condition is
not very good, dark and old (just like small sdn bhd companies but public mutual is so big in Malaysia). The desks look like old furniture that are thrown out by public bank and they just move them to public mutual to save money.

They had 2 people to interview me separately, but they ask the same questions, so I have to repeat what I said (after a 2 hour test!!). Some of the things that make me feel extremely uncomfortable with the company:

1. Unwilling to introduce themselves with their position in the company even though I asked.
What is there to hide? That’s when I started feeling something is not right with the company culture – lack of respect for candidates / employees.

2. Then, one of the interviewers look impressed by my uni results, but when he ask me about some stock market views, it is very obvious that he started to look down on me. I don’t know why, maybe because my views are different from his views. For example, he seemed surprised that my views are contradicting with his views about a company in the stock market. To me, differing opinions are normal but it seems that he is unable to accept that, and he was not ready for open discussion with me.

I have a feeling that if i join this company, i will not be able to voice out my own opinion on my work, and they will give me “the look” again and will not approve on my recommendations or stocks. The way they treat their candidates also tell me that they will treat their staff the same way! No respect for employees, bad culture! I will decline any job offered by public mutual.

may i noe why u quit cf? from which ib?
cf better than research wat?

sorry to hear bout the troubles. some tips in interview:

1- keep the ball on your turf, not theirs-
keep the conversation within the topic you know better than the interviewer, which is your own experience. this way, theres very little room for interviewer to tembak u. tell them your experience.

2- when answering a question that doesnt really have a right answer, just pick the answer that you think is the most important and elaborate it using your experience. when the interviewer start saying out his version of answer, just agree and support him. look for common ground, not the difference.

3- show that you are interested and know about what kind of investment the company is involved in but never try to speculate or show u have superb knowledge cuz theres little chance you will know about that portfolio better than them.

4- when asking question to interviewer, ask a question that allow them to show you how great theirr job/achievement is. when they are done, says "interesting". "great".

5- when u give wrong answer or dunno the answer, apologize and ask the interviewer to share with u the answer.

good luck.

Same here, I went to the interview at Public Mutual HQ (Sri Damansara)
The position they offered me was Customer Administration & Service.

The lady who interviewed me was looking down me as well.
Kept insulting me and there's no right answer indeed whatever I answered.

Kept asking bout myself like looking something to shoot me all the way long.
I kept my breath and keep smiling at her instead of punching on her LC face that time.

There's no any respect for us (me & my friend who went to the interview) at all !
