I'm a fresh grad, juz came back from mid valley career fair today, got an interview next week for funds accountant

They offer basic 2.3k + 500 car allowance + 750 shift allowance, the pay is attractive for a fresh grad, but after reading all the post, now i dun feel like joining them if i'm only doing repetitive work

Investment banking sounds interesting though...  tongue.gif

the interviewer told me to focus on what i have learned during my uni time, thing that i have not learned that i no nid worry, haha, need to dig out those old notes  rclxub.gif
MHFC? the comp that interview me is rbc dexia, same for chocpuding... by any chance that sweet person name is cilia?  hmm.gif

same as nasi ayam . the comp that interviewed me is RBC Dexia . I forgot the interviewer name but he's from Hong Kong, Manager of Fund Accounting (that is the position he offered me in that need to come for interview this coming tuesday) . He's Been working with RBC for 10yrs and . Transfered to RBC Malaysia for almost 2yrs now and yes, the HR lady name is cilia who was the one scheduled me for my next interview . Hehehe .. indeed . Quite hard for fresh grad to get a job now so I just give it a try for the RBC interview plus on wednesday, I got an interview with RHB offered position as an Finance Exec . Also, give it a try ;p

btw, what is MHFC . ? hehe .

Oooops my bad, i meant mctf smile.gif Yes, the sweet person name is definitely Cilia.  So did they ask you about bonds and so? She told me, if intersted I can call her, but I so paiseh... after all I totally blanked out.

No she didnt ask me anything related to my studies . I went to the interview room then the person (not Cilia) asked me to briefly explained bout myself etc . then he told me to set my next interview with Cilia . That's all .

What position that they offer u . ? Maybe that is why she asked u bout the bonds etc . heheheh . So did u happen to get the next interview . ?

I'm not quite sure how much they offer for experience person since I'm only a fresh graduate applied for the same position as well . From the interview that I went last friday during the job fair at midvalley, the working hours start at 3pm until 12midnite and as for the level of interview which I read in this forum, they got 2 level of interview . the second one they said is the conference call with the upper level mgmt from other countries . hehe .

good luck smile.gif

Thanks!  smile.gif
juz now i'm being interviewed by the hk guy u mentioned, we din talk bout technical stuff, juz casual chit chat like talk bout yourself, why you're interested in this job...

he's being truthful about the nature of the job, its very tedious and long process, turnover rate is high, after 2-3 months there's nothing much to learn d, but its up to you to learn from what you do everyday  wink.gif

hopefully can get good news from them soon  tongue.gif

lucky u then . the hk guy tu baik hati jugak lah . he did talked bout the job scope and asked u ques bout rbc and explanation bout urself . that was the thing he did asked me for the 1st interv at the job fair . for the 2nd interv last tuesday, i've been interviewed by person named nicole . she was the manager of fund acc i guess . hehe . she asked me ques based on my resume and then technical ques regarding acc transaction which i failed to answer it since i did forgot bout the acc term and all . haha . maybe that is why i didnt get the job i guess . hopefully i did get at RHB . yay !

Hi, choc puding, may I know what kind of technical question they asked you? and how did you know you didnt get the job, coz I heard they take time to review the applications?
*
I was being interviewed by nicole . She did asked me bout transaction . Like when u buy a house what is the debit part and credit part or when u buy a car what is the transaction and so on . I didnt manage to answer cause long time dy so I forgot . HAHA . then at the end of d interview I asked her since I cant answer her ques will that be affected at my performance, then she said yes . so I assume I didnt get through cause to be a fund acc u MUST know d transaction . that's what she said . smile.gif

no prob . I was major in Accounting & Finance, that's why maybe she asked technical ques to me . plus my weighted average is so-so only . hehe . yea the first interview was at the mid valley job fair, then straight after the interv they will asked u to go to the 2nd interv . 1st interv the HK guy asked me the basic ques for fresh grad . What is ur plan in 5yrs time, describe urself, why u interested in RBC and so on .. for 2nd interv usually they will repeat d ques but depends whether u will get technical ques or not . if not then u're lucky like nasi ayam . hehe .

btw, congrats nasi ayam smile.gif I'm still waiting for RHB to call me for my 3rd interv . haih .
