    Is that the salary for every role though? I would have thought each department has a different salary?

    To every one

    Stop asking ridiculous questions,, No different where you will be located & in what rule, this is the salary for any graduate positions (28k).. wait until you get your package (probably end of may).

    NO MORE UNRELATED QUESTION PLEASE.

    Yours Sincerely

    You're such a troll martin! The minimum starting salary for a trainee actuary would be 30k plus €600 for every CT exemption they have from their degree. There's no way 28k would be across the whole grad programme.

    Hi guys,

    I was unable to attend the scheduled interview due to having an exam on the same day. I was wondering if there are any tips you could provide from your interview experience & presentation it would be most helpful.

    thanks guys!!

    For Ireland positions, did you receive your offer by phone or email?

    And how long after the interview were you waiting for a call?

    I got a phone call about a week after my interview.. While I was speaking with hr I said I was happy with either Dublin or London and they said that they would get back to me, still don't know which I got though..

    I wouldn't expect it any time soon, the HR dept is probably fierce busy with all the staff lay offs etc.....

    Have you received your contract yet? was Dublin or London your first choice?

    Unsure as I also have a training contract for corp finance in one of the big 4 and have had some advice that having your ACA exams is beneficial for a long term career in banking.

    Think I will go with BOI though the training programme seems to have a pretty good structure.

    I didn't mind if it was Dublin or London. I then asked at a later date and I was told probably London. No contract yet you?

    I don't suppose you know the salary? Heard some very conflicting stories

    The structure is the main attraction to the programme for me as there is exposure to all areas.

    No contract yet, should be here by Friday. The salary is €28,000 in ireland and the equilivant of that in London so prob £23-24 as this is the same as the € salary.

    Not too bad so! Also heard on the grapevine that they pay an accomodation allowance as London is so expensive that wouldn't go far...

    Will just have to wait until Friday!

    Yes called HR about it and was passed onto someone else- they haven't emailed back yet. I didn't even have group support down as a preference. We're you for c&t Dublin or London?

    I was for Dublin. I think (hope) they may have just screwed up the contracts. Absolutely no idea what Group Supports even is. Also had the problem of calling HR and they gave me another number to call, from which no one answered. I have sent an email on and waiting to hear back.

    They have to have made a mistake somewhere along the line.. Id be lost/useless in group supports... Will let you know if I hear anything.

    Anyone else in the same position?
