Training school people have spent a month now, meaning this time next month we would be preparing for the pre-training school formalities.

Hope you guys are having fun at the training school?

Quite cool though but as a piece of advice, if you're not so busy now, spend ample time in reading up on macro economics, financial accounting, introduction to banking, banking regulations in Nigeria, communication skills, treasury, customer relationship management, etc. ICAN study packs and some other handouts can be so instrumental in this regard.

It's best you get ready now because there'd not be much spare time when you resume

Thanks for this..... also wanted to ask, how have the various tests and exams within the training school been?

Please, would one of you at the training school be so nice as to give us an update of how things have been so far.

Thanks.

After six months or a year you will be given a department. Not everybody will go to marketing

So during the six months - a year period, you’ll be rotated through various departments Yh?

While we're waiting for the TS mail to drop, I'll like to share a link to a thread that I stumbled on here on Nairaland. Its very insightful and its just 9 pages.

https://www.nairaland.com/2643185/bankers-ex-bankers-bankers/1

Thanks for this. Mine is too work in the banking sector for a few years and jet out. Unlike where i am currently, the IT department in a bank would give me exposure to more things than what I’m currently being exposed to over here.

O.P do you know that according to Forbes, Otedola isn't a Billionare, let that sink into your poorly informed mind.. Femi Otedola is not a billionaire.. Nigeria has only 3 billionaires and even Otedola isn't one.

If you see a Nigerian worth more than 15million USD, you're already talking a rare member of the 1% of Nigerians. let me spell this clearly for y'all in the back, worth is measured in UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($) no matter the billions of naira a man has, if it does equal a BILLION DOLLAR, bro.. he's not a billionaire, he's a wealthy man, but not a billionaire.
..

Chairman, you deserve a resounding round of applause. I tell a lotta people, most of these people they’re calling billionaires are NAIRA BILLIONAIRES and not DOLLAR BILLIONAIRES.

Ohh... so they have people in training school. I remember someone mentioning it sometime ago. I think it’s for conversion staffs or something. All I know is that las las they’ll still employ graduate trainees at the end of the day.

Car Talk › Is There A Law That Says It’s A Crime To Use Google Maps In Your Car In Nigeria? by ezzylee(op): 9:01am On May 19, 2019

A friend of mine said she was stopped by an FRSC official in Abuja because she was using google maps at a traffic light stop. She wasn’t holding on to the phone, the phone was located in the compartment just below the A/C controls. The man let her go because she mentioned she’s related to a BIG INDIVIDUAL in Abuja.

My question is, is it in the law that using google maps in your car is a crime because there’s no difference between using google maps and using the NAVIGATION SCREEN (if available) of your car.

Thanks.

I did my AC in Kano. The guy in charge of the AC said roughly a thousand people were called for AC. In Kano it was 16 person per batch for the AC.

Wooowww.... 16 per batch. So that’s 32 people per day Yh?

Hello Mr. KreScendo; Thanks for the warm message of encouragement. I just want to be sure of something. The other processes in this recruitment that has been concluded, were they in line with the timetable for the last recruitment? Anybody with the answer can actually respond. Thank you!

The last recruitment took way longer than this. This recruitment for this our set is way faster than what was done the last time FirstBank recruited.

Hu has an idea hw many of us wer calld for AC nd hw many firstbank wants to recruit

I only have a rough sketch of how many of us were called for AC in Lagos. Spoke to one of the HCP staff at the AC, he said they had about 75 people per batch for each day in Lagos, but I chose to round it up to 80 sha. So Lagos started their AC on Wednesday and ended on Saturday. Each day had two batches.

80 candidates per batch x 2 batches= 160 for one day.

160 candidates per day x 4 days = 640 candidates

So in total, Lagos had a total of approximately 640 candidates called for the Assessment center conducted between Wednesday and Saturday.

I doubt if anyone has an idea of how many candidates FirstBank would want to recruit. All the best guys.

My Assessment Centre was on Saturday for 7.30am.

Group discussion - this was fairly ok. Some people wouldn’t even signify that they wanted to talk and they’ll just jump in even before someone hasn’t finished talking. There was a particular guy who didn’t make any contributions at all. Each time I wanted to make a contribution, I raised my hand up to signify I wanted to say something and they’ll allow me talk.

Power point preparation - this was fairly straightforward but I was a bit pressured coz we were timed and all and you’re looking at your slides whether they’re too simple or you should add more things. I decided to keep mine simple.

Interview - I was the last person for my batch and I noticed the assessor asking me the questions looked tired and all (don’t know if that was favorable or not) and the other person just kept writing, looked at me a few times and asked me like 2 questions to clarify what I was asked. When I was asked what are FirstBanks products, I could only mention two then I blacked out from there. I just told the man that we should move on to the next question. The product question was like the only downside of my interview

Presentation - I was also the last person for this. Assessors just pointed out something in one of the points I raised and we agreed it shouldn’t be there since another point was already going to do the job of the point she raised.

I wish everyone of us success.
