hey everyone,just got back from the interview.all i can say is i'm pretty sure i flunked it...there are few questions i didn't manage to answer:

-how islamic banking make profits? being a muslim myself, i have no idea
-what is the cause of us economic recession? she told me that my general knowledge is poor (as i give a damn about all stuffs)
-name two banks in us that heve been closed down recently? crap

2 years programme sounds good,bonded sounds ok but have to pay back all salaries if under perform sound nuts! hopefully i fail...then no mood to write essay...however it was a good experience to be interviewed by strict ppl

p/s: got conned by taxi driver too...20 bucks melayang!

Pay back the salary? totally uncool....

of course they got expectation ma,if unmet then bye2...she mentioned that those who resigned normally can't stand long working hours,for instance in corporate finance-sometimes have to go back at 4 am!

sure but how to measure expectations ? like in CF you will be part of a team handling deals etc . How can the head of CF tell with accuracy who has contributed and by how much.

I mean it is not like in Fund management where if you and a couple of others manage a fund . then how much it goes up or down by is fairly straight forward.

Otherwise it is very subjective , one guy can say you didn't do good and the other can you were brilliant .

*cough*, you guys missed out something.

Other than paying back the salary, you will have to pay back the classroom training fees for the first 2 months. (around 10k+)

Its quite expensive because they hire trainers from Australia to teach you how to do a proper presentation, and also a well known image consultant to groom yourself. (http://www.chap-one.com/About%20Us.html)

Currently they are taking in Batch 11, starting next month.

Nah, it wont. There's no right or wrong for personality, just wanna determine what type of ppl you are.

Generally i divided Investment Bank to 2 different types, the Corporate Finance type and Treasury type.

CF is more to compliance, precision, detailed, and etc. As for Treasury is more to fast thinking, react to news, logical thinking and decision making.
