basic calculation such as interest rate compounding and the concept of present value and future value..

Thanks for the tips.
U went for their interview before?
Is the assessment hard? Enough time to do?
Mind to share more about it?
I'm really nervous

have not went for interview but got similar experience with other asset management companies. Basically the role is to analyse and interpret financial data. Hence you need to know how basic investment stuff such as Price Earnings ratio, dividend yield, earnings per share growth and macro indicators such as GDP etc. Also maybe test on question such as if you have 50k, how long will it take to grow to 200k if the rate of return is 3% p.a. You have ample time because it is either you know or don't know the questions.

AH..im crazy nervous for this test cuz im not too good in financial maths.
plus i hope they wont ask me much abt shares or unit trusts

do some homework then, you can google the investment terms. Least of all, you must find out what is shares or unit trust as this what the department does.

Is public mutual a good place to work? Anyone mind sharing the working experience there?

i have different exp from assest company interview...

from what i been through, study past few months industry report and that specific stock recommendation is not sufficient... make sure u know your industry well as well as the stock you going to pitch , like from A - Z before go for interview...

the interview has changed from interviewing candidates to giving advice/counselling to the candidates.... but it was good take away....

Pubic Mutual is coming over to my uni tomorrow as part of of our uni career fair. Gonna try my luck there as I am seeking internship for the next semester.

[quote=818,Jul 23 2012, 04:19 PM]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.


--> did you got the job??

Hi all, I'm currently in Public Mutual Customer Service Department.

Dental- RM300 per year

Optical- No more optical starting from year 2014

Medical- If you visit any of the panel it will be free of charge, hospital plan is rm150 (per night for a room).

Medical leave- up to 14 days for entry level :1 to 2 years serving in the company (as your years or serving increase, medical leave entitlement will also increase same with annual leave)

Family medical expenses- RM800 per year (Spouse/Parents/Children)

Maternity leave- 90 days

Working environment and culture I would preferably tell you in pm, so again feel free to pm me if you have any other enquiries.

For me the interview process was sweet and smooth, no harsh question, no difficult question, the whole conversation is more like chit-chatting, easy-going or maybe I am just lucky.

So far I'm okay with my job scope and environment, of course I have much more to share so feel free to pm me.

Hi, mind to share about job scope and working environment with me pls?

Can anyone tell me whether the public mutual consultant license will act as a additional bonus to my career path? --- As told by one of the agent.

Quite interested to join with the thought of it will be a career bonus to me as a soon to be finance graduate but i do not have the intention to sell the product, just wanna hold it.

Please help to solve the problem of this miserable graduate. thank you

Yeah, had a similar impression of Public Mutual's work environment. Just need to show that you can take the bs with a smile i guess. Lots of fund managers at investment houses here have a similar kind of attitude.

Bump. im having an interview with PBM, early Jan for tech risk management....any1 have any insight on the role there ?
