But when I sent my resume/application form I haven't graduated yet, I just graduated early this month so I guess they were waiting for me to graduate first. I have an interview next week, really nervous. Hopefully will get it. Management Exec post. Wish me luck! Hi, does anyone know what are the prospects of working in SC as a MANAGEMENT EXECUTIVE? What is the starting basic salary? I heard that the program duration is 2 years. What will happen to the employee after 2 years? Does the salary will be increased in the 1st year? Anyone knows about this? please provide me the info. Thank you.

I was asked to do a written test first, just a simple question about my achievements, future career plans and why they should hire me. I was given 30 minutes, wrote about 2 and a half page. Then they called me for the interview. Two persons were present to interview me. One from HR and another from one of the departments. They started easy, with normal 'Tell me about yourself' questions, about my background and my interests etc. After that they asked 'What can you contribute to SC?' so I told them about the subjects I'm good at in my degree program and my skills, personality traits. They also asked me about the economy, how it affects SC, the organization and what it does etc. Pretty tough but I tried my best. They would use my answer to ask me a new question just to see if I know what I'm talking about. I didn't break, I just keep on answering without keeping quiet or pausing. Pretty random questions. Mostly about stocks/shares, economy etc. After that they put me in a situation asking me what would I do if they put me in a department I hate. I just said I won't know until I didn't try. They made a joke about it, saying next time they don't want to see me at HR asking for a change of dept. And said I might be joining one of the interviewer's department. I hoped that was a good sign. I asked them a few questions about the program and the interview ended. I asked them when will I know, they asked me back, how soon do I want to know. So I replied, as soon as possible. They said either tomorrow or next monday. Around 2-3 days. I think that was a good sign because the others were told they will know not until next week. Before I left the building, while I was at the lobby, they gave me a call! Confirmed 2nd interview the other candidate didn't get a call yet. I was over the moon of course! Anyway that's how it went. I'm now trying to prepare for the 2nd interview. I heard its quite tough. If anyone has tips on 2nd interview, care to share with me? Would love to hear some My friend shared his experience with me before. the 2nd stage, its going to be a case study. It's going to test the way u solve problem, your way of thinking, and your immediate response if you face a situation. And yes, its really tough. Just be confident with your answer. Dont look nervous because SC as a regulator/investigator, u need someone who can pretend everything is ok eventhough it is not. You must be good since they called you straight away. My friend waited for almost a month to get the 2nd interview. So, wishing u good luck and success.

I sent through email and by hand, through despatch because at that time I was doing my attachment at a law firm. Then they asked me to email the form again when they decided they wanted to interview me. They will ask you to sign later on when you're there for the first interview. Hi Foxymardy, No problem. How are u doing now? When is your 2nd interview?

I got a case study on immigration problems in Europe, I proposed my own suggestions, the interviewer asked me questions. I kinda expected it to be tougher, but it was alright. I don't know if she thinks I did okay too of course! I might have bombed it without me realising! After case study there was role-play questions, I was the MD for a company, and this company sponsored an athlete. The lady interviewer was the supervisor of the athlete, and we sort of had a conversation together on certain problems given based on the different scenarios. Then, it was the motivational and values assessment. I didn't expect this stage because my friend who had her interview yesterday didn't have this. This is where I was given cards representing motivations and values, and there's another set of cards representing situations. According to each of this situation, I pick 6 cards from the values and motivation group and i choose which one is of least importance, up to the one I think is the most important to me depending on how i felt with the situation. Something like that. I finished that, I asked what's the next stage. The lady said the next stage will be an online assessment they will email to me. I haven't got the email yet so I guess I have to wait until they're happy with my results, then that must be the final stage. They said by next week. So hopefully! So did your friend get the job? Yes. He just did.
