      TCBer Interview

      17 Feb 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at CIMB Group in Jan 2023

      Interview

      1) Fill in the application form and apply. 2) Game assessment. Quick maths and check grammar errors. 3) Phone Interview. The recruiter only asked which TCB program I'm interested in (tcb, tcb digital), why I chose that and asked when I am free for next stage. 4) Preliminary interview session with 2 recruiters (45 mins) and a group case study (3 hrs). Both on the same day. 5) Another 2 interviews, with head of dept.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I was only up to stage 4 and from a non-finance background. 1) What made you interested in banking industry as you're from a non-finance background. 2) Why are you choosing TCB instead of TCB digital when the later is more relevant to your course. 3) Which area are you most interested in and what you know about it. They expect you to have an intermediate knowledge in banking, and have prior experience in banking. Their two core values are Enabling Talent and Passion but I find it disheartening that they expect us to be on the same par as finance students when we were just out of college trying to figure out our dreams. They also said that 9-5 working hours are basically non-existent and higher-ups can request for job to be done at the very last minute. While other countries are implementing 4 working days a week, it is a disappointment that a GLC company, second largest bank in Malaysia is still tolerating this kind of work culture. In the 1-2 interview session, one person was nice, he/she provided constructive feedback. However I found the other person borderline harsh, reason was to give an insight on what the corporate life is like. I hope recruiters of any company realises that as much they have a first impression on us during the interview, we also have our first impression on the company during the session.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at CIMB Group (Kuala Lumpur) in Jun 2019

      Interview

      Very thorough and comprehensive analysis of my qualitative and quantitative skills. I was first screened by a 3rd party logical & verbal test service provider. The next stage was a phone interview to run through my CV. I was then invited to the bank for a panel interview. Then, I was invited to KL for a group assessment which assessed our leadership, problem-solving skills, and people management skills.
