Good bank I heard

Any news so far? I applied yesterday, today got an email asking me for phone interview next Monday.
After got the interview went to google the program more and learn about it, was so shocked to learn how competitive it was :/

Just wondering whether you guys join TCB bcos u wanna do IB / CF?

I managed to get until 4th round then fail jor

Where are you from? Are you currently in malaysia/ KL? how come phone interview?

Yeap, i received their call for phone interview too. Now waiting for their email. Hope its a good news.

How long does it take them to reply after the TST test?

How long does it take for them to reply u after the second stage?

I just finish my final and haven get my result it. Can i send in my resume? AS it might take 1 to 2 months to wait for my result.

Yes of course you can. But I suggest that you remark in your resume that you are yet to get your final CGPA. As in my case, I put the latest CGPA as well as the expected CGPA in my resume when I was about to graduate, and I landed a job before I sat for my final semester exam.

It shows that you are someone who is proactive in seeking a career, as you started to apply for it even before you graduate.

does anyone know when does the next batch start?
is it september or october?

For those that have gone through the business presentation, is the business presentation topic CIMB related? or a general question?

I went for TCB interview 2 years ago and failed in the last stage:(, the presentation given to me was not related to investment banking at all, it was a sales and marketing topic!! Let me explain the stages for the entire interview flow of TCB to those who are interested in this Programme:)

First of all, submit your CV to CIMB web site and usually you will get a reply from email or a direct call from a HR executive. This is more like a verification stage. Then the HR will schedule an interview session for you if your qualification meet their criteria.

First stage of interview, you will be required to write a short essay out of 5 topics and some easy MCQ (these are NOT IMPORTANT and carry very low weight into consideration of passing the 1st stage of interview). Then you will be called into a room for an interview session with a HR manager, *please be confident and show your passion!! They are looking for hungry people who don't easily give up. Impress them!!

Second stage of interview, you will be called up to go Deloitte to sit for a test. You do not need to prepare for this test at all because it wont help:P This test is more on logical thinking and to test your level of learning ability. Passing rate for this test is >70% according to the HR who interviewed me in 2 years ago. There are 4 different tests in this stage.

Third stage of interview, a business presentation. You will be given a business topic and required to do a presentation of 30 mins (including Q&A). This part is easy but you need to be professional in your presentation slides as well as the way you present it. One of the department head will sit in with a HR to assess your presentation. *Luck plays a big role in this stage cause you might get an examiner with bad mood:)

Last stage of interview, another interview but with the head of HR. Be confident, it's more like a conversation rather than an interview session. I failed cause i was too nervous, hope you all don't follow my footstep:P

Advices for people who are eager to enter investment bank!!

1. Ready to work for long hours on editing or donkey tasks for the first few years
2. I have seen many people gave up in pursuing their dream in investment bank and have better achievements than what they can achieve in an investment bank.
3. Learn to be meticulous because they can't afford any mistake
4. High paid with the "Packages" such as bonuses!! Monthly paid is only average compare to market. You are not entitle for bonus once u tendered or fired:(

Overall, TCB is a good stepping stone but be aware that only the top notch of performers will be absorb into the main departments. People who do not managed to get into this program, don't be worried, there are plenty of opportunities out there.

Sorry for the incomplete information as i am rushing for a meeting!! Ciaoz
