It's a two stage process. First, you take an assessment test and need to get at least 80% to pass. If you pass, they call you for an in-person interview at their head office. This interview is about 20 minutes long, where you'll introduce yourself, mention your age, qualifications, and cumulative GPA, and then answer some bank-related questions.

The interview process involves 2 stages. First, there are examination interviews with 3 or 4 people. If you pass this, you then undergo medicals and a training school. After completing the training, you become a full staff member and will be posted to a different unit. Hopefully, it's a unit of your choice, but that's hard to get.
