ohh did ya i see what u mean, i dnt think they want us to know a whole pile on the bank, but will ask us more competencies type questions,
true we got threw that awful aptitude so we cant be doing that bad i suppose:)
Yeah dee man, I wonder will it be situational type stuff like "What would you do if such a thing occurred" etc? Although I can't imagine too many different questions they could ask us there either like. It would be a fright to get another grilling aptitude test haha
Yeah I'm focusing on the positive anyway, the fact we've been called surely is a good thing and it shows they want to suss us out ha 
I reckon the nerves will kick in for us both Wednesday night/ Thursday morning :eek:0 -
probaly will, but ya its all positive now anyway. era shur all you need to do is talk about whats in ur cv and what uve done to date.

just been told my interview is a more financial analysis/ credit assessment area, is there different positions been offered so? all confused,lol
Sure we might run into each other in Glanmire you never know haha Things like interviews always run slightly late so I presume it'll be just after 2 that I'll have my one. You serious? Oh God I hope that I'm not interviewed for one of those roles haha I'd nearly walk out, I applied for the branch banking role like! :eek: There are two positions being offered as far as I know, financial analyst and the branch banking role I presume you did business if you applied for that role?0 -
nope i did property management.

but do have a diploma in finance. jez the way thimgs are going i hope she told me the right place to go,lol
jez we mite, dnt forget to say hello ok,:D0 -
hmmm there must be alot of people being interviewed so if they are spreading the interviews out over two days in cork.. i will come here wed night an fill ye in no worries.
I was told that it will mainly be a run thru of ur cv and then general questions about your weaknesses an strengths and abilities, how u work in a team the usual type questions. Nothing too difficult.
A friend of mine works in AIB and she sed not to worry about knowing everything about banking unless your going for credit analyst or those kind of jobs.. I studied politics and I am going for the branch banking so thats general customer services nothing major in banking she sed is to be known... hopefully anyway cause i dont know much about banking!lol
Yeah I was thinking they'd be those kind of questions Amanda11, so I hope we all get on alright, this boards.ie thing was a great find haha I'm in the same boat as you, I didn't do any business or finance in college, I've a degree in Exercise & Fitness and we only touched on financial things in first and fourth year in college haha, so I hope I don't get asked a real sticky question thats hard to answer

Okay.. The interviews are all messed coz I got a choice of what day I wanted and I chose wednesday at 4! No idea how to research the banks.? Any suggestions?? Amanda suit I'd say,..but not sure have a dress too.... I've never gone for a proper interview either.... Gonna be scary but at least good experience!!!
I got no choice of interview time at all Orlaith88 ha, I'm at a loss to researching banks anyway I find that its hard to learn stuff on them! I'm a male but regarding dress code I'd say it would be however one would dress if they were working in a bank 'cause thats what you're being interviewed for and aspiring to be, its a simple answer I know but a good technique when you think about it ha 0 -

I havnt been sent a job spec or anything, so all I know about the position is what I can figure out from googling 'credit analyst' haha!
Ha crystalmice that is a genius way of doing it! I applied for the branch banking role, so I hope I did well enough but not well enough to be considered for an analyst position as I have zero business/finance either! I didn't even go through a recruiter, just applied directly to AIB!
