lyrexia 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 dear yuri,so sorry to hear about your situation. have you ever thought about perhaps attempting something that you've always wanted?I mean, yes. working is to achieve livelihood / $$$ to feed ourselves but maybe this is the time to do something that you've always wanted to do and you'll never know, you may find satisfaction and then realize you've finally found what you want to do.at the current situation, i don't think many banks would be hiring. don't be discouraged. maybe you could take up my suggestion if you want to. =)Good luck!

ATok 0 Report post Posted October 10, 2009 Hmmm..I dont think it is difficult to get a job in banking if you were fresh...my friend can just jump from a bank to another bank...but to get a senior position if would be difficult....Why not take a change? It might be difficult initially, but it would be very challenging..just try and have no regret since you are still young... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cas 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2009 I work in a bank too. Been applying for other banking jobs but so far no one has called even though I’m under consideration on jobstreet for a few jobs. I wonder if the market is really that bad? I had an offer from Maybank early this year, but I stupidly rejected it thinking my increment and bonus this year would be better, but it wasn’t the case. Sigh. Now just waiting to get another call/interview. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
