Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Standard Chartered Bank - International Graduate Programme 2013 by badolee: 4:05pm On Sep 27, 2013
Hello All,
I do think i could give some perspective on this process that might be useful to you guys.
i went through the SCB IG recruitment process earlier this year and was successful. However the program i applied for was cancelled at the last minute.
Anyways for those of you who have not done your phone interview, its predominantly scenario based, read up on the STAR method of interviewing. Have a lot of examples from various experiences. If you dont have work experience, focus on your activities as an undergraduate, the key here is to show initiative, confidence and strong leadership skills. If your successful with the phone interview, you would be asked for a business simulation exercise, which looks at your office skills and how you prioritize..for this google up intray exercises. Your next stage would be a panel interview of 4 people, here confidence cannot be overemphasized. For this the STAR method is key, and you must study in details the financials. One key thing about the face to face, is your body language would be monitored and questions would focus on consistency. As a rule, always ask questions after the interview, Intelligent questions that is. If you are successful at the phase, you would be invited for a one or one with the HEAD of the Stream you are applying for, it would amount to foolishness to get to this phase and mess things up, Pay attention to details and dress your best. For one on one interviews, the key is to be relaxed, ask a lot of questions and show interest in the brand.
I hope this helps someone here. All the best .
