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

Good Evening every one.

Yes FirstBank sacked more than 2,000 contract staff across all the beaches in Nigeria. the most affected contract staffs are those who have worked for 7 years above and salary is above 70,000

This happening because association of senior staff bankers are commencing strike on January 2, 2020 to demand for salary increment. So first bank is trying to lay off some contract staffs to cut cost.

Though firstbank will employ many new contract staffs but the salary will be reduce greatly.

please this your news, I hope it's from a realiable source. The salary being reduced greatly is what I don't understand.

you will understand when you are employed

Please don't hope, just ignore the news.

rumours every where on this thread. God help us

rumours every where on this thread.
God help us

I just hope all these rumours-uncomfirmed or confirmed does not have a side effect on our resumption. If it does, I think we should be aware of it, so we know what next step to take.

Because I don't understand anything again. It now seems that looking away from this job is even a safer bet. I don't just know.

God help us sha. I wish we can get an update before the year end.

Prospective conversion staff of FBN are currently doing their DM with White Cleon. The recruitment process is outsourced to White Cleon. They got their email on 20th, while some others got theirs the following day.

Guys FBN will eventually contact us. Let me not repeat what has been said earlier in terms of getting busy with other things, but for the sake of its importance we need to get busy with other things that improves our personal development or generates cash flow.

Eventually is will serve us well in TS but before then we will maintain healthy psych. The experience you gained working on a project might serve you well in TS.

While you have your daily task set out little time everyday to learn some courses on free platforms. Google some of them.

Check other jobs you're qualified for and apply. Who knows... I am not writing to suggest you forget about FBN, but to open your eyes to other things that will enhance your living.

Just like you, I am also waiting, but the problem is not waiting. It's how you spend your time while waiting.

More grace to all of us.

goldimx:

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?

They weren't actually sacked. This is how it works. From a reliable source. As a contract staff, you get a chance to get converted to a full staff after going through their exams and all.

After 5years of you failing to pass or meet those requirements, your contracts will be terminated.

So, FBN didn't sack those guys, their contracts were terminated by Whytecleon.

Plus those conversion staff resuming TS on the second of December will be in TS for just one Month.

So guys, na next year thing.

Timely information, at least, there's now a time frame to work with. I see D/M January. TS February. All things been equal sha.

However, TS would likely not extend beyond March. I sha hope we are next in line after them?
If not, the wait go they longer ooh.

Gracias guys!

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

Can’t be 7weeks... highest is 5weeks

@goldimx

Extracurricular activities includes?!.

The conversion staff are using 4weeks in Training school. Not 7weeks.

We getting ours mid January, that is after posting the conversion staff.

Anti-Money laundering (AML) lecture
Firstbnk mgt. nd associate prog.(FMAP) lecture
Fraud awareness/Prison visit
Career discussion
Onboarding nd documentation
Bonding event
And abt 2 more, i cnt remember
@DonYza, i pray so o

The bottom line is there is no way the training will take EXACTLY four weeks. There is room for post training processes that will eventually result to their posting.

speculating speculators using speculation to kill time. I just believe with each passing day we get closer to our time. We all should just chill and put our mind on next year February before we really start to get worried

There should be a reason for their sack.
