Credit Control officer (Citibank)
 

Hello everyone, am new here. Am trying to apply a job as a credit control officer in citibank, hence would like to know what's e salary like. Been trying to search it on e web, but yield no results :(

Anyone here has any idea about it? TIA.

anyone????

since you are only applying for the job at the moment and not reaching the final stages of neg with HR on your pay, I advise you to just go ahead and apply.

I am saying this because by normal application without referrals, there would be many others applying for the same job as you.

If you are a fresh grad, it also depends which uni you are from. But as fresh grad, you can ask for about $3k for this position.

Of course, if you are a local Uni, maybe $3.2k. But if foreign Uni (corresponding uni), $2.8k is also good.

Do you have other relevant experience?

Give this post few more days and you might be hearing more inputs.

Thx for e reply.

I had already applied for e job n due for a 2nd round interview, sorry for not stating it clearly :)

You can state $3.4k as expected salary, usually the HR will reduce by a few hundred dollars form what you ask.

career progression?
 

hi everyone,


i'm an environmental engineering graduate who is interested in working in the financial sector because my major (environmental) is not hiring many people.

may i ask what is the career progression like for a credit control officer? especially so for someone like me with an engineering degree with no business and banking background and what are the steps i can take to help further my career in this sector (i know MBA is one of the options but would like to hear more about it and any other possible options i do not know about)

thanks in advance!

credit control is just a ops based bo job without much future, treat it as job to get first step in the bank. after that is up to you to develop your network and political skills to move to whatever high paying position

ohh, ic.. thanks for the heads up.. maybe i should continue looking around for other jobs then..

now civil service 3rd class honors dun even call up for interview.. i wonder how the government will create enough jobs in the future when they increase the number of fresh graduates... this is madness..

be a dishwasher at sakae sushi.

If i can get that job i will go sch of Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee and laugh at all those students lolx

Have an interview interview for this position next week.

Can anyone tell me whats it like working as a Credit Control Officer?

What is the starting pay?

Is it target-based? Very hard to hit?

Any office politics?

Please share, thanks!

Hi,

Went there for an interview last week and am not really interested in the role even though they promised much progression and learning. Its really to chase after the bad debt and try to recover as much $ as you can and that will be your individual and group KPI.

Declined them as I dont see myself in the role which is something that they will constantly ask during interview. Can tell they are really in need of manpower and willing to train you up if you join though. All the best!

if thats the case, instead of recovering debts, might as well join as sales and create revenue for the bank! seriously, sales is not that bad, you are 'forced' to work with many depts sometimes and that gives you a glimpse of what they do.

Was there this week and was immediately put to sleep when the person said it was actually chasing bad debts with a quota to hit. Feel their job description online is very misleading as if it were a bank operations day job but in fact is a telephone sales job with not much career progression. Don't understand why they require min education to be degree holders cuz no degree holders would want this kind of poly-holiday job.

The reality is, everyone on te streets of an developed country r most likely a deg holder.
Two, banking is a field everyone is seeking after. though this industry is definitely a sunset industry.
It boomed in the early 90s cause of gramm leach bliley act and the is turning around with the intro of volcker rule n more regulations

I heard the pay is not too bad but u have extremely high targets to hit in order to claim that "commission".

Definitely harder to do than sales cuz u are asking people to pay money when they chose not to do so in first place.

prob need to be more educated cos you need to crack ur brains to think of ways to talk to the customers to persuade them to pay up. and need soft skills cos you need to keep ur cool when customer scold you. haha.

seriously, like someone above has stated, might as well do front office sales if you have a target to hit. you definitely learn more doing sales rather than just asking customers to pay up!

Anyone here has been offered the position after attending the interview?

What's the pay?

Declined the offer, no career prospects lol.
