As at last quarter of last year Diamond bank was the highest paid bank in Nigeria follow by Zenith and GT Bank.

I resigned from DiamondBank. As a Trainee(1st 6 months), you are paid 80K monthly. Once you are converted to an Executive Trainee(ET), your annual gross payment becomes N2,796,000 but you receive N178K every month excluding your housing allowance at the begining of the year which is N245k.

please can you enlighten us more on why you resigned? Please educate us and lets share from your wealth of experience.

Why else will somebody other than getting a better job, or, less likely, going into self-employment.
I don't think that needs deep explanation the way your question sounded

Ok, I actually resigned when I had saved up enough funds for further studies. I studied Engineering and wanted to have a career growth in my field. I was becoming too comfortable in the Bank without growth actually. I never wanted to stay more than 3 yrs in the Bank since many pple easily get carried away while there.

okay. You left the job to pursue your passion. I feel its a good move. You have definitely created more jobs and I believe you are happier now.

Yeah bro, I now earn above N250k per month now and have time to write some professional exams. I never had time in the Bank. But that's me bro, sum pple are very much comfortable with what the Bank offer

I think working in a bank exposes one to a lot of business opportunities.

Any business you do in the Bank for your own personal interest is illegal and you can easily be laid off though...

Sure. I meant gaining business ideas from clients of the bank especially loan seekers

Union bank pays 158000 monthly

ayoboy06: Union bank pays 158000 monthly

When did you join the bank? Can you please fill the house in on the speed and mode of the recruitment process? I think its a bank with some level of job security.

@adjunct -I really salute your courage of resigning to follow your passion;but are u saying that diamondbank management always stick to there promise of upgrading there new intakes at exactly 6 months to N2.796M-cos most banks only state 6 months on the- job- training on paper, only to end up extending it up to 18-20months!-and with the on-going diamondbank recruitment nationwide 2012 ,I fear if they can end up upgrading them all in exactly 6 months.I am aware that accessbank pays 103K for degree holders with a promise of upgrading to 170k after TWO years of working with them (upon a signed bond of 2M to be refunded to the bank if u wish to exit anytime before two years).As a former insider of diamondbank,Please share your experience conserning the 6months training issue/extention, in your reply...thanks Oga!

Do you have any bad experience with the bank? Share it with dha house!

Boko Haram bank pays more, i.e in bombs

oc2fish: I wonder why your asking if your godfather manage
to push you in. Wont you rejoice and give sweet
testimony in Church? despite the fact that we
all know how you get their. If you father is
not a strong shareholder in a Bank or own it
please forget bank job.

Give a testimony for finding a job in a bank? Get the FORK out of here. FORKING religious fanatic.

The Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English like many others, defines ‘probation’ as a period of time, during which someone who has just started a job is tested to see whether they are suitable for what they are doing. By this definition, probation should be for a specified period of time. The question on the lips of some staff of United Bank for Africa (UBA) is, what meaning do the powers that be give to this word?

An ugly trend started in the bank that prides itself as Africa’s Global Bank last year when a set of freshers that were recruited in April 2011, having worked for the probationary period of 6 months, despite their confirmation were still said to be on probation. During the 6 months of probation, these set of staff were referred to as Executive Trainee on Probation (EToP) and months after their confirmation, they still remain EToP. This is fast becoming a norm in the bank as the subsequent batches of fresh employees are all victims of this obnoxious act.

Inquest reveals that on the confirmation letter issued to each of the staff, it was stated that “Following your satisfactory performance during the probationary period, Management is pleased to inform you that your appointment with the bank has been confirmed”. One begins to wonder the motive behind this if after confirmation, a staff is still said to be on probation.

Information has it that the Legal Department of the bank waded in, condemning the decision and advised the Human Resources Directorate to correct the but months after, nothing has been done on it.

In a bank like UBA where promotion is rare to come by, the fate of these helpless staff hang in the balance. The management of UBA should not because of the overpopulated labour market allow this injustice to stand for too long. A motivated staff is a dedicated staff.

sorry to break the flow peeps but does anyone know about a job offer at any radio or tv station(for corpers and otherwise)/thanks!
