Those that went for intercontinental bank medicals in Enugu know it's been some weeks now. I heard some guys are on training which is what is causing the delay. PLEASE does anyone in the house know when we'll be going to training school. I also heard the training is no more 6 weeks, is this true? Will it be September or next year?

Hi ! achukanyi,

Happy to know U made it to medicals.I called someone yesterday concerning the result of the medicals and the posible day the training will start and I was informed that the result just left Enugu for Lagos on Friday last week,and invitation will be by postal mail(as used during test invitation).

So I hope it'll not be long for them to start calling.I heard the training may reach 3 months--not too sure though.

Let's keep watching and praying

Achukanyi, haba!, why are you thinking they will call by next year. You are not being encouraging at all! Be optimistic. You are scaring some of us that are patiently waiting for that call. I know we should start hearing from them by the third week of august. Lets just keep praying. See y'all.

U guys in enugu should consider urselves lucky, we in PH wrote the test the same day i think , (march 17th) and we just had the interview about three weeks ago. We have not gone for medicals, no one has an idea of when they will start calling for medicals. This intercontinental is supposed to be a happy bank but it is the other way round.

A friend of mine had a test with IBTC about two weeks ago, had his interview yesterday, and was called today to pick up his appointment letter tommorow. U see no long thing!!!

Anyway, lets be optimistic, thank God i have something doing for now if not, person fit get HBP.

Thank you guys for the encouraging information you have shared. I still remain very positive they'll call us soon, possibly within this month. As for the delay, Every bank has it's employment policy and must follow it. I beleive that we will all be happier after the long wait. I think it is even better that all would-be bottle necks are sorted out now than latter 

As for those PH guys, don't despair, who knows, you might go for both medicals and enter training within this month!
So cheer up 
Happy bank is still the best

There is nothing impossible with God. Just be patience and we will all laugh last, the best laugh. Am still keen about IB Plc. How ever, I heard that every1 gets a target and if you don't meet yours you will go on suspension without pay. Pls guys how true is this?

One Love

Bruse, I don't think that anyone will be suspended for not meeting up with the target. I think they'll just re-asign u to paying teller desk or thereabouts.

Anyhow,I dont think that those there are more connected than u in meeting targets,so if they really made it then u'll definitely make it urself.

Guys lets not lose sight of the issue at hand,ie our training date.Lets not worry about meeting targets and all what not,I believe when we get there we will know how to handle them.Afterall some of us were asked whether we will be able to meet their targets and i guess nobody answered in the negative.So we need info as regards our training.Ciao

pls i just wanna know what the test format was and possibly where it is in gmat i mean the year and section thanks n i shall appreciate ur help remember it is one luv in nairaland

@khris
I know why I am asking : it is for personal analysis and not to derail anybody from focusing on going for training. I want to be there myself. And besides I was not asked if I will meet their target or not.


Pls I need a reliable information not what you think. I will appreciate it if you can provide any.

@Frickyt
It is not strictly GMAT format, there was no question lifted directly from GMAT. It comprises of only simple english and maths with a bit of current affairs. But one warning, anyone you are not certain of the answer, just leave it. Negative marking applies in their test. About 100 questions in about 60 minutes. Good Luck to you.


By His grace we shall all get there.

Thanks and One Love.

Bruce about meeting of targets,a friend of mine that works with the happy bank for about two years now was given a target and he couldn't meet the target.He was placed on suspension.I wouldn't know if it was without pay or not because he was immediately recalled after two days on suspension.He works with the operations department and was still given a target to meet ;that was why he was recalled.

Guys lets keep this thread alive.To be uninformed is to be deformed.Any news?

Guys, Lets keep praying ooooo, and keep this thread alive like my man khris says, we are 4 the happy bank, we will laugh last and laugh best in Jesus name ! Amen!. Cheers!

Hi guys. I v been readin the responses on this thread and i think its really great that u guys r keepin the rest of us informed. I also did the ibplc test and interview in enugu but i had my medicals in lagos cos that was the address i used.I really hope they invite us soon 4 trainin cos this is really becomin ridiculous. This kin journey that started since march and has refused to end, na wa o.But i also heard sha that trainin shld start this month. I hope its for real this time.And i hope we all pass the medicals and get to meet at trainin school. it'll b nice working with the likes of y'all. Good luck to the house!!!

Hmm guys this wait is tiring oooooooooooooo, i went to the HR office at VI on tuesday and i asked a HR officer when we will likely be called (not that i think he will divulge), but his response was that the calling should come from Enugu, then he said i should call them at Enugu and ask and then i told him that i had called their Regional Office at enugu and was informed that the call should come from their Head Office in lagos, then he just said i should hold on that we will be called. Its more than a month after our medicals now, haba! Happy Bank, makes us Happy. Lets all just pray we pass the medicals. Cheers!

I can really feel the heat u guys are going through. Mine has been cussioned with the fact that I am now engaged with Access Bank Training. Nevertheless, am stil interested in IB Plc.

Those from PH, I wonder what is still holding our invitation for medicals.

My prayer is that they hasten things up, its really over due.

Good luck 2 you all.

Aaaaaaaaaah! What a sweet relief!! Thanks for the soul lifting news Konti.
Cheers comrades, the end of the waiting is finally in sight.
To God be the glory.

Yah !! the heat is on! But from inquiry i made it seems that the day is fast aproaching. On or bi4 August 27th.

So cheers to all

May God take all the glory.So i heard too.Guys to make the info complete,we need to know their means of contact this time around.Is it as mankevo said,or through our cellphones.My contact could not give the info.This is important so that nobody gets the info late like what happened in the medicals.So who knows? Keep the fire burning

Thank Goodmess! the wait seems over, but questions, how are we to be contacted? and again konti says the training is in batches, so not everyone will go and so that means some will still have to wait! what do u guys think?

Any new development folks?
Seeing that they've started calling those from PH for medicals, could it be that the long wait is for the trouble in that region to subside so that we can go for the training together?

Hmmmmm, if it's really monday the 27th that we are scheduled to resume training, then that means they should be contacting us this week. We they wait ooooooooooo, i check my mail everyday and my phone even follows me to the shower! We have come to the end, it is well

Sometimes I ask my Phone if it's not playing me pranks

The wait is really telling on every one sha But at the end let it be favourable.

I think say na only me dey carry phone everywhere.At times i will use my house phone to call my own phone to see if it still receives call.Truly the heat is on.Shaa i still believe they might still call us this week.About the batch thing, i believe all of us that went for the medicals might be called at the same time,afterall we are just about 32.Their training school should be able to contain us.God is with us guys, that i know.Cheers

Guys don't worry. I believe you guys are due for training this month and you all shall be there.
they have started calling PH for medicals. And from the way they sounded, as if they want you there immediately, shows that the are now ready to settle all and sundry.

A friend (Otipratt) was called yesterday and he should be in PH now. I was called this afternoon to also come for my medical letter between 2day and Friday.

From previous intension, I should have been dusting my bags to quit Access Bank's Training. However, after serious consultations from sources both in and outside IB Plc and in depth thought and evaluation of my career goals I have decided to remain in Access for now. More probably is because I have choices to make out of the two Banks. Otherwise, I wouldn't think twice going for IB.

For you guys, I say congratulations in advance and I wish you all the best in your banking career with IB Plc. My prayer is that we will all find favor where ever we find ourselves. But my candid advise is that your utmost will be required, don't fall short of that!!!

Konti, Mankevo, khris, Otipratt, akonam-one, Chibzzy, etc your contributions in the house are highly appreciated. I will miss getting to know and meet you all ( except Otipratt whom I have already known) in IB training school.

Good luck and all the best.

One Love!

Guys! Shout Halleluia! Baba God e don do am!, Guys just yesterday i was called for training, the caller (a ladies voice) told me that i am to report at IBplc HQ at danmole for training. Guys if you were not called yesterday expect the call today, so keep your phones fully charged, and take it everywhere u go, try and have full network bars (if there is anything you can do about it). I dont even know how to start thanking God. To my guys Khris and Emeka, looking forward to seeing u y'all in lag. To all Landers keep keeping on, your miracle is just around the corner.
Cheers y'all!
