[b]@ sexyella & A-wai

guys tnx 4 your words of encouragement. I wish u all success 2 because i know what its like.

Now about d interview, its going to be in 2 stages 4 sure. u will get in2 d 2nd stage only if u scale through d first. In d first stage, u wuld be asked first 2 tell them about yourself in less than 30 secs. please don't rush it so that u wuldn't make mistakes. what comes next might be determined by their interest on any point u might have raised while talkin about yourself. u wuld be asked about your knowledge about d banking sector and operations. try 2 ansa as you're able 2. then u wuld also be asked about d relationship between your course and d bank. if dey would want u in marketing, then expect questions from that area so try to know a little about marketing strategies because u might be asked 2 market your phone or sumtin 2 them as a test. also expect 2 be asked how u submitted your cv 2 them, i.e through hard copy or online. please u wuld be expected 2 ask them questions. they appreciate it a lot so ask them about their products and ongoing promos but please never forget 2 massage their ego but don't over do it. well that's all i can remember 4 now about d 1st stage.

When you're done wit d first stage, start praying hard that u get called to the 2nd stage. It wuld be immediate, as in that same day. u wont even have 2 leave d bank because dey wuld start calling d successful ones immediately after dey have drilled everyone in d first stage. D second stage is quite cool and tough at d same time because u would be facing nuttin less than 3 top shots in d bank, viz: the regional manager, branch manager and head of personnel but don't panic sha, dey might be worn out 4 d day and if it happens 2 be so then dey wont ask u much because they wuld be itching 2 leave their. dey wuld also start with u telling them about yourself. in this case be audible because they wuld be conversing among themselves but do not be deceived because they r attentive 2 every detail. and if God be on your side that day, they might just ask you to go after u've told them about yourself but if you're among d first set of people dey r meeting then expect more questions. in my case i only talked about myself and while i was only half way in2 d story i was asked 2 stop and go. please note that if your told 2 go and dey add that dey wuld get back 2 u, it means that you're home free.

But please put d whole thing in God's hands because he has d final say. You guys didn't mention d interview date so i hope it comes soon because they really need more hands because more branches wuld be in operation before December.

ps: sexyella and A-wai, i wuld like 2 hear from u both on or before d interview date. even when you're their, let me know how it goes. if u make it to the second stage keep me posted so that if there is any question u might have about their regional heads before goin in 4 stage 2, i culd ask in my branch. reach me on 08024172702. am looking 4ward 2 testimonies from you to and other landers.

no long thing.[/b]

Tipsy, u are da real deal man. That should help -BIG TIME. I actuallly dont know my interview date yet (da earlier da better though),but I will definitely keep u posted.thanks for all ur efforts.Peace!

tipsydude your info on the interview is really helpful thanx

[b]dis is 4 d bro who called 2 ask me wat he wuld say if asked 2 explain how his course of study (pet. eng) can be useful 2 d banking sector.

Well apart 4rm talkin abt d analytical abilities which engineering has enabled u 2 acquire though technically, d plain answer 2 d question is this : "dat u believe dat as a university graduate, u will be able 2 fit in2 any field u find urself in due 2 d fact dat u've been oportuned 2 touch a liltle bit of everything while u were in school". i was told dat dis is d most reasonable answer 4 one whose course aint bank related cos 4 u 2 answer a graduate, u should be able 2 learn fast and fit in wherever u find urself. trust me on dis cos i know of someone who was told dat by d panel who interviewed him in Enugu.

Pls try 2 find out d name of d regional head around ur area. check d bank site. for those in d east, find out more info abt d draw dat took place 2day in Enugu in respect 2 d win as u wish promo so u culd ask dem intelligent questions abt it.

Gudluck and gudnite cos i need 2 go sleep.[/b]

Hey Tipsy,I had my interview on da 25th of Aug. Ur tips really helped.Please I would like to know how long it took b4 u got called for da job, and are u undergoing any form of training at the moment?in general, I would appreciate a full description of da job so far.thanks

[b]@ A-wai

dude am glad u r done wit d interview and i hope u spoke well. if u r successful, u will hear 4rm them in 2 weeks time. at d most 3 weeks. if u do, d text message might read "U've been invited 4 an interview @ , time , " when u see sumtin like dat, relax cos it aint no interview u r being called 4. it's 4 documentation and medicals though if they r in d mood, they might still ask u some questions.

pls stay away 4rm alcohol or any other stimulant 2 days b4 ur medicals, AM SERIOUS. leave d popping of champagne and knocking down of green bottles until after ur medicals so dat it wont influence d result. and i hope u aint positive . try 2 drink enuff water b4 d medicals so dat u will giv them d best urine sample ever.

now after d medicals, u will get 2 hear 4rm them within 3 weeks. where u fail to hear 4rm them, pls call me so i culd tell u wat u need 2 do. cos i experienced sumtin similar. then pls make ur suits available. black, navy blue and gray.

as 4 training, well get ready 2 resume immediately cos ur training wuld be on d job whether u fall in marketing or operations. i hope u r conversant wit computers. but dont be tensed u will learn fast cos am just 2 weeks old and i started fitting in right 4rm d first week. dont complain abt d on-the-job training cos d pay will make it worth ur while.

well dis is all 4 now. i wish u all d best. 4 more enquiries, mail me on reach.eugene@gmail .com .

i know lotsa peeps will want 2 know y i didn't giv my bank email id, well d reason is simple: banks operate on intranet wit their IT people responsible 4 creating their ids which are generated 4rm a particular webmail host so all mails r easily monitored even if u change ur password. so dats d reason.[/b]
