Futurus BoI Graduate Programme

    Hi,

    I applied to the BoI graduate programme over a month ago and I completed the online assessments over 3 weeks ago and I haven't heard anything back since. I have sent a couple of emails off with no response.

    I am worried because when I submitted my application to the actuarial stream there was a problem with the system that meant the questions I was asked were in relation to Retail UK. However, when I asked at the graduate fair, the Bank of Ireland representative told me to submit the application as normal.

    I am just worried that my application has not been processed properly or has been put into a different stream, namely Retail UK.

    I would appreciate any help you can provide.  

    Thanks

    The same has happened to me. I applied relatively earlier, for the actuary section then I got the online assessment, did it and did not receive any response. I rang the phone number which was given in the email with the test and the lady on the end of the phone said I would probability get a response within 24 hours but that I should use the following  email address and Bank of Ireland would get back to me.

    Two weeks later and nothing. My grades are reasonably good in a honours maths degree but it still would have been nice to be told one way or another?

    I too would like to know what happened??

    Offers have already been sent out and the interviews for the stream I applied to have finished. So I would have expected to hear something back sometime ago.

    Hi,

    I recently attended an assessment day in mid November, I was just wondering have any offers been made yet. I have been made a decent offer from an accountancy firm but BOI were my primary target.

    Kindest regards
