It is highly unlikely for you to be offered IB positions for their MT as the positions are reserved for experienced hires. The recruitment process will take quite some time as there are thousands of applicants applying everyday. Most people go for PBB because they have no other offer, or at least that’s the case for mine. After a few months in PBB I received an offer from CIMB and I didn’t think twice to go for it. Compared to other banks, PBB is seriously outdated, not only in terms of system n processes but also culture.

Usually they will filter the candidate before they proceed to the next stage, which is face to face interview.

They also called me first before the interview so i think it’s the standard procedure.

Unless if you already been given the offer letter, you should definitely keep applying in other firms
