i really hope they allow me to change from sales to credit analyst
if no choice then hv to reject the interview..

Oh yeah,thats why alot of guys like to go to PBB annual dinner.

They treat annual dinner like PRAWNSHOW!!

All pretty ladies will be chosen and if are really those "MIANG" type,all those ppl with big titles will go after you such as BSM,Branch Manager,Regional Manager...

Thats why PBB other's name is HAMSAP BANK..

All the Manager there work too long d,weird thing is alot of them still single so they prey on young ,horny newbies ...

Added on November 14, 2009, 7:33 pmIf you think you can really sell,go ahead.

If not,be prepared for the exit door in 3 months.

Added on November 14, 2009, 7:36 pmBro ,credit analyst is bette than sales.

But pls go to other bank for credit analyst.

Just avoid PBB.

PBB is like "HELL's" happy hour..

When you first join,it seems like a damn nice place to be in.

After u work 3 months,then you will see all the demons in there...

No coz technically im not based under branch. but then my working place is located in the branch...so anyhow will also deal with those SOO. My encounter can be considered nthg compared to the tellers directly under the SOO +_+

actually they provide me 2 position...either credit analyst or sales...for credit u hav to undergo some management program like working in front line...so i need ur advise...btw im a fresh grad with lack of working exp

holy smokes...what about the "personal financial executives"? any1 doing this? can share some experience? & what do u do exactly?

PFE, they sells unit trust.... Main focus on PB bank Unit Trust and you also need to do some other miscellaneous work like opening account and being the front line to received complaint from unhappy customer. Still you can go out to do sales if your sales managers like you. They allow claim on mileage.

Most of all, they pay fresh graduate 2.8K!!! Wth!! I work so hard but fresh grad in PBB get paid so high!

There's a reason why PB fresh grad pays so high =\

PB bank unit trust, so Public Mutual (PM) unit trust oso can be included? or strictly PB unit trust only? How is the career path then? starting from this position can go till senior management positions? for the PFE, can they off work on time or not? or also have to stay till 7~8pm?..thnx


err...is it the "pay 2.8k but work is worth 5k" reason?

that being one of it =\

PFE is another name for Unit Trust Consultants.

What ur job function is well,of course bring in more UT sales.You are only allowed to sell PB unit trust not PUBLIC MUTUAL ones.

Of course,you have to perform within 3 months if not u r shown the exit door.

And one word of caution,the target they set for you is really really high.

During my tenure in PBB,there were at least 5 ppl who came in ,and either quit or was terminated by PBB due the above reasons.

As a saying goes,It's easy to get into PBB,but it's also easy to be shown the exit.

And for myself,I was a SOO,we also had a special saying.

It goes like this

Becareful with anything you sign ,cause you can simply sign sign sign until you resign!

Added on November 15, 2009, 3:07 pmYes,actually I think ur is Management Trainee position?

You see,PBB's way of work is typical ChinaMan Bank style.

They seem to hate new technologies that make's life easier.They dont like to see thier employees life easier.They want to make it hard for everyone.

So the way they work is,the more suffering there is,the better.

So for credit analyst,you can expect piles and piles of files on ur table most of the time.

Most banks are moving towards paperless transaction,but for PBB is the other way round.PBB use more and more paper for useless reports,daily server backup in branches ,etc etc.

To be safe but neverending paperwork,go for credit analyst.

If you want to take risk but get big rewards later on,go for sales.

Added on November 15, 2009, 3:09 pmOh i see,I used to scold the tellers if they are damn slow in executing their jobs.Hahahaha..

But most of the tellers were quite efficient and friendly.

The thing in PBB is,if your rank is higher than the other person,you can order him/her to do anything related to work.

Do you mind sharing your part of the story?

That's kinda off topic As I am not in the financial line. But if one day I got in the mood, I'll share some interesting stories.

Oh please ... !!
We newbies need some milk, exclusively from milkshooter!!!!

seems like PB is not an ideal working place huh...but if i ever go for sales i wouldn't choose PB coz no commission is given based on the sales...i think i will consider credit analyst in this case..thx kevin

need any high qualification to enter ar??for the marketing post

hey i just went for the interview.....it go smoothly but just some technical ques abit stuck...... after the interview they never ask me to fill up any form...but they said will call me in 2-3 weeks time....so what is the indication??am i already rejected?? or i have to wait for their call ??

They also said that they will call me in 2-3 weeks time. Now is the 2nd week since I attended the interview. Not sure about the result.

I did well but the amount of questions that they asked me made me feel that I am rejected for that position. The least question they ask, unlikely that you will get the job.

By the way, I did fill up a form. They sent the form to my e-mail few days before I went for interview.

i think its an employment form that u need to bring along for interview.....so is it true that u will fill up a form right after the interview?? if yes i think i can say byebye adi...they never ask me to fill any form
