Private sector lender HDFC Bank along with Manipal Global Academy of BFSI has launched a future bankers programme for training and grooming candidates and a job opportunity at the private sector lender on completion of the course.
The bank plans to hire 5,000 such professionals over the next two to three years who will be posted as personal bankers. “All successful candidates will receive a post-graduate diploma certificate in Sales and Relationship Banking, and will be hired by the bank at its different branches across the country as personal bankers,” HDFC Bank said in a statement on Wednesday.
The starting salary for the job is ₹4 lakh per annum plus allowances depending on the category of town or city of posting. Full-time graduates from recognised universities with minimum 55 per cent marks in the age group of 21 and 26 can apply for the one year course, which entails a full-time residential course where participants spend the first six months at Manipal Global Academy of BFSI’s campus and the last six with the bank as an intern.
The programme will have a stringent screening process including an interview. The course fee is ₹3.3 lakh exclusive of taxes for the full year. HDFC Bank will also offer lower than market rate of interest on educational loans for the course.
