Me, as well took the test in Lahore at PU Examination Centre, last time… I still have the well sharpened lead pencil they gave us to solve the paper…
the test was so very easy…

thanks your post was helpful indeed.
One last question - how long is the period on the security bond? With this
and The training of one year you ve mentioned, is that at nibaf or is it like on job training?

Also... Guts.. Hmm. I dunno sometimes all the confidence in the world cant save you from inconvenient social situations. After all its a nine to nine ... Phew spending half of your day at work is taxing wrk environment is paramount thus. But i can see your pt of view also.
Thanks a bunch.

Is it nine to nine job? do all banking jobs of Trainee officer, OG I and others have such hectic work schedule?

sorry for the ambiguation. I called it a nine to nine job in context to the previous post that mr. Ammar had replied to for me. Officially all banking working hours are nine to five, but being a branch manager can extend working hours to 8 ish i am told. Thats the scenario i was talking about, in retrospect that statement sounds like an exaggeration. My apologies.

well that was my perception because mery city sy last time jitny logn ny lahore select kia tha kisi ko b shortlist nai kia tha. And even forum pe b kisi ny confirm nai kia tha k kisi ny lahore me test dia ha. Anyway daikhty hain is dafa kia hota ha.

I have heard in last batch 200 candidates were appointed as RBOs. Any idea how many will get appointed in recent batch?

i hav applied.... i am MBA Finance CGPA 3.39.... m frm rawalpindi,,,, will i b shortlisted ????

Mcb tbo s vs rbo ubl?
Thoughts on merits and demerits of both?

The bond period is 2 years from the date of joining. Well, training includes around one month class room training, on job training - rotation in different departments of branch -, one week training in main branch (Chest or Vault branch), one week training at Centralized Operations of bank, etc.

Umm, one can say it is very hectic to work in a branch - the hell, I pronounce it - banking.

Apart from all this, one must not loose opportunity in this saturated job market.

Good Luck ahead!

My CGPA is not as good as yours is. Trust me cut off CGPA is enough. Apart from all this, one must have minimum 3.0 CGPA.

Both are good. MCB pays little higher than UBL but at the end UBL gives you opportunity to be Manager after one year.
MCB is owned by Pakistani group whreas, UBL is in hands of Sheiks of Dubai.

Being a son of MCBian I preferred not to join MCB.

Dear do you think one should prefer banking sector over govt. sector?
I'm recently doing job in govt sector but I want to join banking field bacause many learning and career enhancement opportunities are provided during the job. I also have specific interest for banking and finance jobs. Recently, I have been offered position of T.O. in Soneri Bank but I rejected due to some of the above mentioned reasons. Now I'm totally confused regarding decision I've heard someone saying banking jobs interrupts personal life of an individual.
I mean, I'd be grateful to you if you can you please elaborate banking jobs?
