I tink d conversion staff wil use up to 7 weeks in TS.
First becos d TS mail for GT stated 12 weeks but thy ended up using 15/16 weeks cos of extracurricular activities
Secondly, dey wil need to make up for d public holidays.
@DonYza, tnx for d update

Sefa018:
I asked him. He said they were sacked; not that their contracts ended

Only contract staff dt shld av bn converted long ago.
A branch had 10 contract staff sacked

Sefa018:
They actually just sacked at least 2 people in every branch. My friend who works with First Bank told me today. He said 3 people were sacked in his branch

Oh, den my news is true. Wen i read further, firstbank said thy wer nt sacked dt der contract expired!. Cn u confirm ds frm ur frnd?
Dt means d D&M sent to those on ground ws sent afta d confirmation of d sack. Na wa o

Those on ground to replace conversion staff wer sent D&M mail by the outsourcing firm (Whytecleon) on Tue. Dts after successful test, interview nd induction wich took place btwn Feb nd April ds year.
So i dnt knw if its a sign dt conversion staff will be going to TS b4 us

BoluEma:
Any update bro?

No oo
I saw a news abt firstbank sacking over 1000 contract staff nationwide, so i posted it.
Bt wen i dug deeper i realised its 2017, so i tried deleting d post.

Hu scored both goals for 9ja

Hello everyone,

I know this might not be the right place for this question but I am convinced a few people here might have answers to my question.

I wrote the test for the FBN Management Associate position sometimes in August of 2019 but no feedback on whether I passed the test or otherwise up to this moment.

Is there anyone here that wrote the same test conducted by Human Capital Partners?

Looking forward to your kind response(s).

Regards.

Thy already conducted AC for dem since Oct 9
Fbn/hcp dnt send regret mails

Oga Opzzy, no vex abeg. D way u dey talk nw u fit punch me for say i dey ur front o
Mk evrybdy concerned no vex abeg

Luckyomon:
how are you sure that the least score from the AC was 70%.. Did you see the score as I didn't see mine? Anyways, I scored 58% in the test.. Was invited for AC, and luckily for me, I was included in the first batch. I know centainly second batch will be contacted soon but I don't know when.

As regards the success rate... I don't even know anyone that was dropped. I only heard that one or two persons were dropped. Cheers

D least AC score ws mentioned in one of the 3 TS centres. It had ntn to do with test scores. Besides, Success in AC has a lot more to do with experience and soft skills

Firstbatch was selected based on thr AC scores. The least AC score for thr batch was 70%. My words may sound hurtful bt its d truth. I ws jst trying to say we shld be treated better dan we are now. I apologise for talkn too much, its nt my fault too.

It feels like the first batch candidates are the real successful candidates, real MVPs while the rest of us are d expendables, the afterthought.
They had the highest assessment scores anyway so its fair bt i still feel terrible.
HCMD First bank can do better

I don't think anyone is as tired as myself because I was supposed to be among the first batch.

The response wasn't an update to say the least, but what would you have me do? I'd only keep in touch. Guess they don't really know more than that -even if they do, guess it's too confidential for them to share for now.

So, we keep waiting for relevant updates then.

Its painful nd frustrating
Always remember dt wteva u feel ryt nw, howeva painful , its only TEMPORARY nd it wil pass, in a short time infact.

I do not think thr is anynur training ds year. If thr ws, it wld av kicked off.
Conversion staff due since january
Conversion staff due since june
Graduate trainee
One wil resume january.
This 'go slow' na wa *sighs*

obysuccess:
Those who have reported and settled down, what's up? How have been the processes?

Thy ar less likely to see ur msg cos most of dem dnt need info on ds thread again. Besides, information at thr level may be too confidential to share.

Which people get state headquarters or national headquarters? Cause these areas always look so interesting to work.

Those wit vry high scores living in lagos. Though its advisable to get branch experience. Work at head office is very specialised nd further training wil be given

Sefa018:
I hope so too. Waiting till that time won't be funny at all. If only they could at least call us for D & M before the end of this year, then we'd be sure of TS by January

D year is stil far frm over. D n M ds year is stil vry possible.

okaforlaw:
thanks so much i really apprecite ur prompt responses.
please kindly describe a case incomplete documentation

Like d case of d guy dt has nt finished nysc, thrby nt having his discharge certificate on hand.
Or cases of missing or destroyed certificates wit no legitimate affidavit or any oda suitable replacement for it. I dnt tink u shld bother urself much, as long as u av all original required certificates nd av filled all spaces in all required forms correctly. Its rare to av a documentation problem

okaforlaw:
please has there been a case where after documentation and medicals the candidate will not be contacted for training school?

If u failed medical
Incomplete documentation. Anytn oda dan ds, d person shld contact dem
Transition frm D&M to TS to Posting for first batch went smoothly, so evrtn shld b fine for d 2nd batch too

okaforlaw:
so apart from those living in a place 60km away from their place of posting, the others nothing will be given to them? like a wardrobe allowance or something

I honestly dnt knw.... Sm1 else dt knw shld answer abeg

okaforlaw:
so u mean after the posting, if ur place of posting is different from the address on ur cv, then u will be qualified for the relocation allowance.

please do we have the leverage to choose a preferred state of posting?

Yes.
Evrybody states thr state of residence in training sch. However, those wit vry high scores get wer thy want. Lagosians always get lagos

Sonship9:

Oh, I never knew all these though. I had always thought it was even higher- say 150+.

Nevertheless, the pertinent issue is if and when we would even be called sef? Local man is tired �

I think the whole tin will kick off nxt year.

Its obvious its nt a delay anymor bt a pause

Firstly, i think d provision set aside for trainings this year has bn exhausted or d balance wil nt be enough to onboard d nxt batch

Secondly, banks generally reduce thr expenses towards d end of the year so as to:
1. Record a higher profit which in turn reflects
2. Better earnings per share ( Ds positively influence stock market price)
3. A higher profit also means higher dividends for investors
4. Directors usually get bonuses based on annual profit, so a delay til nxt year means higher bonuses for dem

These are my thoughts ooh!!, Am nt sure its true
. Nevertheless, i stil see evryday as a new day nd vry hopeful smtn wil pop up

ezzylee:
:
I thought your were in already.

U tot so cos of my active presence here. Its impatience nd desperation oh

ezzylee:
1M?? Haba..... come on.

Its very true.... its a little over 1M sef
U til get d money if its mor dan 60km to ur residence
Dnt b shocked, be happy
I do not wish to get my state of residence sef
I already av a portfolio of investments i cn go into

Sefa018:
Please what do you mean by "confirmation"?

Afta successful training sch, u wil b put on 6 month probation... Then confirmation wich makes u a permanent staff nd u strt enjoying d full privileges

ezzylee:
Since you guys are now in, anyone cares to share what your starting package is?
Thanks

Lol, i wish... Am part of d "waiters" Dnt knw d starting package

Preachersgirl1:
Please for those that have been posted, please I'd like to know if you were posted to your state of residence or another location.

Both
U get a relocation allowance if u dnt get ur state of residence

Mails for test or interview?
