probation for fresh grad with ambank is 6 mths.. and bonus should be 2-4 months (depends). 2 months bonus is for clerks... it is contractual bonus. for exec is definitely more.

one more thing.. i'm not sure where you got the annual increment figure from.. it's around 7% to be exact.

And HLBB annual increment is 4%

i heard standard charted 14 months pay

wow....so high oh...with higher education of coz higher pay lar...

Sales ppls brings profits to the Bank ma,thats why Bank offers them high salary...
now Banking industries looks very seriously in sales...
without sales how are they going to make money??

becos some other company (not bank) they offer low bassic as commission high. its a diff scenario in banking.

How about some of those middle east bank? Ive heard the mostly their full package is good!

UOB where got 2 months bonus!!!!!

I am 101% SURE their two months bonus already included in your basic salary...
UOB normally bluff ppl with high salary and never tell ppl they the bonus already included in the basic salary...

Beware of this malay HR lady (Nur Eliza) from UOB, she never explain properly during interview... especially about bank's benefits part.

And alot AVP there don't have real talents one... only know to "POLISH SHOES"

Real story!!!! I was in UOB as fresh graduate

Luckily I left after few months thank god I got another bank's offer.

UOB NEVER appreciate staff one...

AND PLS CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG

4 z a, i always hear UOB got a higher basic? UOB no bonus? Which bank are you in now

Really ?

deodorant,

You sure or not? ur fren oversea graduate or local Uni graduate? I heard tat only oversea graduate will have the chance to go oversea. If local graduate, dun have the chance at all. Tis is wat i heard. a bit confuse.@_@

Act i went to alliance, standard chartered and UOB for management trainee post n i've pass mostly all the assessment. they like finding CEO. a lot of assessment. however, I would say very interesting and challenging. waiting for the end result. dunno which 1 to choose @_@ .....blur......

100% false. Once you get accepted as an International Graduate (IG), you are on par with all other IGs regardless of where you graduated from. It's not an easy program to get into, though.

Having said that my friend graduated from Australia ...

The basic salary sounds higher... RM2600 << RM2200 + RM400 (Contractual bonus divided and added in your basic salary).

So you will be only entitled one bonus which is perfomance bonus.

This is wrong. Standard Chartered officer level staff have 30 annual days leave which is the highest among the banks.

btw, a lot of the banks are working towards 14 months pro-rated pay into a 12 month pay scheme.
Maybank did that thus you see a lot of protest and signs on "Bank robs our bonus" during last year.
But did the bank did anything wrong?!...

Yes, SCB currently has the highest annual leave compensation which is 30 days.
HSBC however has 7 days or 5 days paternity leave can't remember so well. Anyone working for HSBC?....can verify whether the old MOU of RM1,400 is still around?!

need some advice here, i have gone through few assessment for management trainee post. a lot of stages but i've passed most of the stages they required. up to now, i've finished the interview at:

Alliance Bank and they have give me an offer: RM 2300 (Upon confirmation, RM 2500). 24 day Annual leave. RM 400 for dental. staff loan rate and etc.

UOB- however, still have one round to go. They offer RM 3500

Standard Chartered - they ask me to wait for 1 to 2 week(s) for their decision. They offer RM 3000.

which one to go? alliance need me to reply them asap eh......how ah? shld i accept it? or wait for others???? can any ppl give me some advice? alliance say they willing to pay of my 3 mnths notice period fr my company. will they ask me to sign any contract??? any alliance ppl out there?

I was wondering whether UOB and Stand Chart will need their employee to sign contract or not.

HSBC IT officer has 30 days annual leave as well
and sick leave not exceeding 30 days
basic salary RM2800 with bond 2 years

Added on April 24, 2008, 12:55 amMOU? u mean lifestyle allowance? I think it should be RM1200 depending on which level.
Higher level officer will definitely have higher allowance.

BTW, TS should categorize the salary and benefit according to job title/scope coz its not fair for ppl in management to be compared with those from IT

yeah, is the salary for fresh in IT department is the same as per discussed?

AGROBANK (formerly known as Bank Pertanian Malaysia)
IT Position for Fresh Diploma Graduates (Executive II)
Starting salary - RM2k + 300 living allowances
Benefits - medical, dental, a few more and some really low interest staff loan (we're talking about 2.5-3% for car and house loan).
6 months probation.

if someone (fresh grad especially) wants some info on RHB Bank, well here it is..

IT Position for fresh grad - contract for 1 year (convert to permanent based on ur performance, n ur boss also )
Salary - RM2k
mileage claim - 55sen per km
medical - pay first at clinic panel, then claim back
no OT claim, eventho u got involved in important things such as DR exercise n others
once converted to permanent, increment is just RM10 (heard this from my senior.. hope its not true)

conclusion: u r working as if u r the permanent staff with lesser benefits than them..


just saw an ad about public bank yesterday, their statement "..Fresh graduate will be paid basic salary of not less than RM2800 per month" really catch my interest.. hmm.. any advice

Good or bad really depends on which department you go to. It depends on who you work under or work with. Banks are large corporates and large corporates are bound to have politics due to the hierarchical structure of the organization. Some worse than others...

Generally, bank's increments are low and quite fixed. Even if you are a top notch employee, there's only this much % your increment can be. With this in mind, try to negotiate a higher pay when you join. Trust me. I'm speaking from experience. Of course, this is not applicable to those trainee programs because the salaries are fixed.

For PBB, issit possible to become managerial at the age of 27? Not internally promoted, but hired from outside.

Also I got question on the benefits. Are all bank giving 16% for EPF, 24 days annual leave, and have loan subsidies?

Please advice.
