Yea. They reported at the Academy today. They used the whole day doing registration and other stuffs. Accommodation is superb with two persons per room, and the SE guys total 91. A welcome party was also organized for them this night. They were told that their training is to last for 4/5 weeks depending on their level of assimilation but were also advised to be serious coz GT guys will be coming in after theirs.

They'd definitely assimilate,
We're worming up

That part of SEs been paired in training school struck me as regards accommodation.Since they are ninety-one in total,it is easy to accomodate them all.Will all GTs also stay in training school or it'll be for only those who come from outside Lagos?

AC will likely commence on Saturdays as usual, after the onset of the training school program for the first set of GTs who've had their medicals...#my opinion

Yooo!! So was waiting for word back from First Bank after my AC. Once I read that success mails were already flying out about 3 weeks ago for AC candidates I lost interest and decided to move forward with my life because I was not going to wait for several weeks/months just to get word back!

Long story short, I got an offer yesterday from a top international tech firm with presence here in Nigeria with a pay 3 times what we were speculating First Bank pays their GT. I was blindsided by this offer. Needless to say I accepted it!

Essentially from November I will be a dope boy with more money I have ever seen!

I hope me falling out of the GT process opens up room for another person to fill my spot!

Everybody will get a shot guys, everybody will. Just exercise some patience and play your position all the while.

Now, if you will excuse me, I need to make a list of all the girls that thought I wasn't sh!t in high school. #OperationPythonDanceOnTheseHoes!

Did dey say they need an engr with swag? Holla your boy.

I like international, salary wey dey acknowledge exchange rate.

I've lost count of the number of persons on this thread who either didn't get success mail after the first test or documentation mail after the AC but have gotten offers better than what FBN would be offering.I trust God to favour us all.

One of the very few things helping me hold things together in this wait is this thread... y'all awesome people n will be so delighted learning n working with you guys. Cheers All

Guys,I came across this latest news of F BN on LinkedIn which directed me to this source..what's your take?


http://tekedia.com/nigerias-first-bank-incredulous-30-million-target/

Pretty simple, I didn't research much but I can tell you that all they (First bank) need do is to drive every single employee to get customers, habits of the new generation banks, they will achieve and even surpass the target. Also, the writer said GT bank's worth more than First, I disagree, google is our friend, we can check ourselves. I might be wrong tho, but I have not heard from any first bank staff that they drive them crazy to open accounts for new customers et al. And mind you for every strategic statement, tactical and operational statements have been made to make sure goal is achieved, they are FIRST and they don't bluff. So instead of writer crucifying them, he should wait till the end, if they don't achieve the goal, then he can lash them. #MyHumbleOpinion

Dude pls call any of the HR contacts sent to you and clarify things as some one had done earlier so that you don't spread false info and cause confusion.

let's just hope and wait

Please can any S.E currently in TS give us an update? Or could it be that only GTs view this thread?

FBN really did well to give their SE a chance to become core staff.

mayorchelsea:
Any of the SE guys in the training school I believe are in a good position to help awaiting GTs get any relevant information as regards resumption of training school for GTs.Staying at first academy should give privelege to obtaining few infos.

The truth is not many SEs are actively following this thread...many of them before now were very busy with work and now in TS the schedule doesn't really allow much room for extra side attractions (especially on week days). I spoke with someone in TS and he doesn't have information on when TS is likely to commence for GTs. Hopefully, it'll still start this year as expected.

Please guys, something has been bothering me. I just did pre-employment medicals with a company and I'm scared because I don't know the essence of the medicals and I don't know if there are results that could cause one to lose the job offer. I'd like your opinions. Thank you.

Medicals I believe are meant to certify a person as fit for a job or to know if a potential employee has any health related issues that could affect him/her on the job.No organisation wants to spend so much on recruitment and training a new in-take only for such person to be medically unfit or begin to struggle with health issues the job.Do they spend to employ and train another person again?Medicals can disclose certain health conditions but are overlooked if they are not enough to affect a person's performance on the job.It's not very often that someone loses a job offer for failing medicals,we might not hear if this happens as the lab wouldn't disclose the results to you but to your employer and they in turn might not tell you,my opinion.

I still await AC invite.

Na wa oooo
