    • How the work of CRES impacts the front line
    • How Personal Financial Consultants (PFC) and Customer Relationship Managers (CRM) in branch operate
    • The development of outline structures

    This will include gaining an understanding of:
    • The role of Business Continuity Management (BCM) and the risk management process

    This is a great opportunity.. Thanks poster for bringing it up once again.

    Some people on this forum were very optimistic and energetic when the vacancies first came out late last year/early this year..But now, one can hardly hear them say anything about the IGP programme at SCB.. At least if you guys were not successful, just do other applicants a huge favour by coming out to explain what you think you did not do correctly and how others should learn from your mistakes.

    I am expecting those who interviewed with SCB for the IGP programme to speak up( or write up)...Say something.

    Hi,

    Two people, in fact three people I know, are in the same shoes..The programme starts in 4 weeks. Therefore, it is obvious that they had selected people from the thousands that wrote the final essays.. It is unfortunate that those that went for the interviews on this forum decided to keep silent...

    Look elsewhere.

    Success!

    Although you would earn 50K dollars/year if you got it, you could still earn something like that, or even more, if you are lucky enough to be considered in a better place..There is always a better place.

    10x, i really do appreciate the encouragement. i only expected that at least SCB would have at least sent a mail saying...they cant continue or something rather than just have one remain hopeful...

    There's always next year, besides vacancy will open again in about a month or 2. Went for the interview but did not decide to keep quite, I just havent visited this site in a while. The best chance of getting in is to apply early and work very hard at passing the online test. Get past the online test and u'l be among the lucky few who go 4 the interview(s). Its worth all the hardwork.

    Good one rmcap. You know, you were not the only one that went for the interviews..So, I was not directly talking to you.

    Indeed, I knew they had long taken the people they wanted...The strategy, as remarked by rmcap, is to apply on the day the application is made known to the public..That way, one improves ones chances of being invited for the debate(interview or assessment centre). I will surely tell somebody that strategy!

    Now, don't you think it would be nice if you took your time to take us through the interview, assessment and final offer stages? Like how many people do they take every year? Like what disqualified people who attended the several interviews this year? Like anything for our knowledge... Like Like Like.... Naija grammar style.

    Most of the information needed can be found on the bank's website. They even give hints on how to have an edge over other applicants. Cant say 4 sure how many people they take yearly.
