Its been a while since we last heard from the Bank, has there been any development since?

I heard resumption date has bn fixed, is it tru?

RoqOption:
I hope Covid '19 wont halt commencement of this program ?

Pls wats d latest development

I had d intention of creating a whatsapp group after we received our TS mails. I wld implore evry1 to join the group and wen we eventually resume TS, thr shld b only one whatsapp group i.e. ds same group.

We hav a lot to gain
1. More freedom to discuss more sensitive topic as we progress into TS nd beyond
2. Receiving msgs in real time
3. More fluid discussion

D link is nt going. Did u jst create d group or it has bn in existence for a while

Accomodation is a possibility. Firstbatch did nt get accomodation cos other senior trainees wer occupying it. Its only advisable u prepare urself for no accomodation.
DonYza is right abt d main reason y thy askd for our availability

Mhoet:

Your blood dey hot ooo

U cnt imagine

I dnt av d "clicking" option either and i dnt tink thr nytn to worry abt, either way we r all good

BaeloPiz:
I mean let the speculation start from the next Monday, not between Friday and Saturday. Just saying though

Ooh!!
No mind me, my blood too dey hot!

adesbaba:

To confirm availability for d graduate trainee program kicking off soon

BaeloPiz:
Lol... Leave it at the next week naaa

No vex, bt i no und. pls clarify

If the deadline is 12 noon Friday ,then instructions on D&M is likely to com in btwn friday evn nd sat mrn to kickoff nxt week. Am glad abt d progress

kingpin0308:
@DonYza
Thanks for the info. That means they should send us documentation and medical mails next week or upper week at most.
How many days intervals do we have from the day the mail will be sent to the day the documentation and medicals will take place?
I am presently in port harcourt that's why i am asking

Firstbatch received D&M mail on June 1

Actual Documentation took place on June 3, 6 nd 7

June 4&5 wer public holidays

I think June 3 was for Abuja only, am nt sure

So do d maths, although the recruitment team reserves the right to set d interval as thy please

kingpin0308:
This week ends today, FBN why now?

I feel u but

The day is nt over yet

The week is nt over yet

As it stands, the earliest and latest month we cn resume nw is March... Lol!. Any woman wey get belle wen we received that 1st email go born dt same march

IkeBobby9:
Them fit decide 2 gv us certification as professional waiters

Hilarious AF

IkeBobby9:
I no 2 blame people wey dn wait taya o...its bn a long tym coming!!! We go de alright las las, by God..

Wait still long o!

We ar waiting for D&M mail, after we get dt nd do d actual D&M...

We start waiting for TS mails, then we get TS mails nd finish with TS...

We start waiting for "Exam scores and cumulative average" mail again to confirm its above 70%...

We start waiting for Posting letters..

After posting letters, we start waiting for confirmation letters....

Bt d good tin is, it gets better...

perooo2017:
Just thinking out loud...
With the current transport brouhaha in Lagos, FBN can be a real MVP by opening up TS accommodation for us. It would be the kindest thing to do

I hope so too. Bt i dnt tink it wil b enough for evry1. 70k allowance wil b slashed to 43k as well

What's the essence of prison visit during training?

To create a real life picture of wer thy will end up at the back of thr mind if found guilty of any financial crime.Its similar to some tins we see and just wish we can unsee. D unpleasant image will always pop up if d person thinks of any financial crime.

Its a foreign concept that was recently adopted by companies in 9ja after longitudinal research studies proved its success in reducing financial crimes abroad. Nw dts foreign prisons oo, nigerian prisons are worse.

In my yr3 days, my class was taken on an excursion to one prison in Ekiti state, trust me its hell on earth, those prisoners are deprived of literally evry basic tin in life, evn oxygen sef na contaminated oxygen.

Nigerian prisons are terrible abeg!

I didn't doubt the news... I made that statement because I feel that the rate of retrenchment within the banking industry in recent times doesn't feel good.

One other thing abt ds laying offs has to do with promotion. The higher the level of hierarchy, the smaller the no of positions e.g. Thr cn only be one GM. So staffs that are left out during promotion cos other staffs outperformed nd had d necessary qualifications run the risk of being part of those dt may be laid off. Wteva dept u get determines the kind of experience u acquire (some experiences are more relevant i.e. more marketable) . Thats why staffs with relevant experience and qualification that miss out on promotion apply to other banks or companies for similar position that thy wld av bn promoted to in thr current org ( Most banks and companies dnt do graduate trainee programs cos of the crazy expenses attached to it, they rather go for experience hire and pay dem well).

Secondly, things are changing fast. During my dad's time, training only lasted for 3 days and thy wer posted to branches to learn other tins on the job. Dts y fraud cases wer plenty then. All this bad experiences and mistakes av bn factored in today's training making it last for 3 months now (e.g. prison visit). Though, its a normal tin for employees to be trained regularly thrby making them adaptable to current economic environment bt oda factors like employees nt responding to training due to generation gap or let me say the 'old cargo' syndrome (finding it difficult to und wt younger generations wld easily grasp) come to play wen making decisions like ds.

Career planning is key.

BoluEma:


This is a double sided news

D news is true.

This also means some staffs will soon be promoted to fill the available senior staff positions

Its similar to what UBA did few weeks ago wer long time serving staffs were relieved. Some others were promoted, new employees wer recruited too and salary was increased by 50%-150%.

If FBN is doing smtn similar, i hope thy dnt forget d salary part

Anniie4u:


You don't know till you join.

You can!! I b better hustler

Let me tell a u story bt pls completely remove the bragging notion it might bring

During my nysc days, i was posted to Sapele. Wen i realised only wednesdays ws my busy day ( sch nd cds) , i moved to my cousins place in Warri nd got a teaching job (20k: To teach Pri1-5, Jss1-3 PHE) after explaining to dem dt am a corper and i wld b needing my wednesdays wich meant i wld close early(11am) on wed. This also means i travel to Sapele evry wed (35 mins journey) to do al nysc stuff (sch nd cds) nd return to Warri dt same day.

Inbetween juggling btwn Warri nd Sapele as explained above, doing lots of chores given to me by my cousin's wife ( You knw hw unnice female inlaws can be cos u r living wit dem), i was still preparing hard on my own (no lectures, no reading partner) for my ican exams (foundation level: all 5 papers). Guess wat, wen results came out i had d overall best result in the country including 2 out of 5 subject prizes getting over 90% in 3 out of 5 subjects at my first attempt at the professional exam. If you av anyone dt got inducted May 2019 after qualifying through nov 2018 diet, check the induction brochure, u wil find me there (As prize winner, foundation level)

So believe me wen i tell u dt if 'bank stress' and goldimx jam, bank stress go crumble ni!!!!!

Anniie4u:


Lol
You're comparing bank stress to school stress so?

My dad works with Union bank, my elder bro works with Ecobank. These guys wake up as early as 4am nd com bk home arnd 9pm. They stil get up early saturday mornings to get thr clothes washed nd iron dem themselves later in the day. So i knw the stress in banking, my bloodline handles it pretty well.

perooo2017:
After 1 week of drilling, e go taya you

I dnt knw abt u but am one of those pple that enjoy learning, always eager to learn and grow evryday, especially wen it comes to academics, career and money and u knw wat they say about doing wat u enjoy.

We all passsed through school so i knw wat stress is and i personally crave for it as long as its connected to growth, success and money.

So concerning FBN, am looking forward to enjoying the stress in TS. Infact, i dnt evn see d stress in learning in an air-conditioned classroom, getting paid monthly and being served a meal twice daily.

When its starting to look like it wil soon end,
then BOOM!
Another two weeks!!!

@Sefa, Nice piece.....
@DonYza, Am feeling ur positivity.....

Yh, wit tie

I bliv by nw thy shld b on 'post TS' paperwork and because its a team, they wld need to have a meeting b4 decisions ar bn taken.

A D&M mail is the end product after meeting, choosing a date, deciding on the personnels to be incharge of documentation at designated locations, informing the hospital of arriving candidates so they can be prepared nd oda tins i may nt knw abt. So d process may hav kicked off already

If things happn like it did last time, actual D&M shld nt exceed next week and TS resumption 2 weeks after. So u cn start preparing ur documents and a sufficient number of corporate passports. For those that may need accomodation, u can start gathering ur money cause the closest hotels to TS cost an average of 100k monthly ( AC, Dstv, cleaning services). You can decide to share wit a fellow TS mate (50k) or two (33.3k).
Concerning, FBN's total entry level package (after confirmation), pple thr aren't saying much but wat i was told is that evn on pro rata basis, the compensation is poor (still revolves arnd 200k monthly) compared to other banks. I bliv this is so cause it has bn long since FBN reviewed their compensation policy and the time value of money is what is coming to play here. If this shld b d case, then u can be sure that it wil b reviewed in the near future as part of their strategy to stay competitive and retain high quality staffs.

GT firstbatch received D & M mail about a week after Conversion staffs finished TS. Hoping it stays d same or evn better.

I knw. Just a funny reply i hrd in one of this DC series in a similar situation.
