You must be 25yrs and below with a second upper minimum and have good look and they prefer ladies and will offer to hire them on contract and pay them 40-60k per month

Course you study don't .matter especially if you are drafted into marketing

Hmmm...ok

Where would you suggest a person to apply for one.
Is checking into different banks to ask if they're hiring one of the ways?

Because looking for online job openings and applying for them is almost hopeless.

Nothing special

Be less than 26 for most banks.
I think it is only Access that is 24.
Have 2.1 (and above) for most banks, from a RECOGNIZED institution.

Any course you study is your business. grin

Apply via the portal, a staff (sometimes they allow junior staff drop one or two CVs).

Write aptitude test.
Do interviews- panel and one or two with a senior officer. ED/MD as the spirit leads.

Get into a training school. Score 75% and above for most banking schools. You get paid and fed in your training school with enough activities. You fit forget wetin carry you come if you no dey careful. Too many fine boys and girls forming love wey posting go scatter.

In the training school, your course of study would help. Most business students would understand the terms and won’t struggle to grasp it. Engineering students do better in calculation courses once they pick up the basics.

Get posted to a unit. The top 3 and memorable students tend to get preference. The rest would end up in Marketing onlr Operations.

Northerners are ALWAYS (98%) sent back to the North. They like it that way.

Connection is just a very negligible few.
Spot on.

Pls what are the requirements to apply for a bank job.

If you graduate in theatre arts or any other unrelated course and you want to work at the bank, what course do you need to do in your postgraduate programme to qualify for a banking job, or are there any alternative training certifications needed to be able to apply for a bank job for those that need the job urgently.

It could be the position of a bank teller/ customer service, I just need your opinions

Bank tellers are on contract, they are recruited via agencies. Workforce and some others. I don’t remember their names. I would not advise you to go this route. It is not fun in the long run. Except you are very young and have enough time to get out before you are 26.

This is mainly for outsourced staff aka contract staff.

I bet the OP wouldn't want to toe that line though some banks offer conversion exercise along the way but bear it at the your mind, the chances are quite slim and some are still stuck with camel must go through the eye of a needle method though.

All in all, I pray the forces be with you.

Re: What Are The Requirements To Apply For A Bank Job by annisy(f): 5:25pm On Apr 27, 2022
From my personal experience I will tell you that 80% of bank jobs in Nigeria are outsource to other recruiting firms!! While the remaining 20%are based on PR, I will encourage you to to look for someone who can recommend you for employment in his or her bank. And forget about the pursuit of certificate for now if you have a first degree
Nigeria bank sector careless about certificate and degrees, least I forget the 20% are actually the main bank staff--try enter through the 20% e get why

FORE CORE STAFF;

Be less than 26 for most banks.
I think it is only Access that is 24.
Have 2.1 (and above) for most banks, from a RECOGNIZED institution.

Apply via the portal, a staff (sometimes they allow junior staff drop one or two CVs).

Very detailed. Thanks for this.

However, you mentioned applying via the portal, writing aptitude test, doing interviews and getting into a training school.

Do all these requirements come after applying via the portal or are they seperate ways to get a banking job.

Also, what banking schools are there and what's the average duration of their training programs, cause I don't usually hear about those.

Those are the stages;

Application - aptitude test- interviews - banking school - start work

Every bank has a banking school for CORE STAFF. Mostly in Lagos/PH and Abj. You probably do not hear of it because most bankers these days are on contract. So they only do induction or learn on the job.

Training school is 2-4months. I am not sure I have seen any that is more than that. smiley
