OCBC - Group Technology

Hi,
Welcome to OCBC. Just visit the Tampines Centre 1 (near CPF building) and you will meet all sorts of people you will be working with - Indians, filipinos, Indon, PRC...
They all work long hours and you will be expected to do the same, unless you want to be replaced by one of them...

Yes, i am clearly aware of the influx of FT in ocbc tech. It will be good if you could give some other information like remuneration, working hour (OT till 10pm and etc), which route would be a better choice (I believe there are alot of different dept in ocbc tech) and etc.

Thank you.

Hi,
1. There are more than a dozen tech dept in OCBC - most Business Units have their own tech, and then tehre are subsidies (Great Eastern, BOS, etc) and there are shared services. OT etc, will depend on where you end up.
2. Make sure that no FT is your boss. Otherwise it is a good place.

All the best

Hi Karen,

Could you please PM me on what are the "better" dept to be in?

Hi,
I thought that the influx of FT is slowing down with the cap on visas, interviewing requirements, etc. How come I still see so many FT in OCBC Tampines?
Which banks of Singapore still hire Singaporeans?

Hi,
How long it takes for OCBC tech to recruit an AVP? I applied last week and need a job desparately.
The HR is unresponsive and I don't even know if they will speak to me at all.

Hi Seniors! I would like to seek your advice on which route should I go for. Deeply appreciate if anyone could explain the below mentioned position available.

1) System Delivery – system analyst
2) IT Project Management Office – support to project managers
3) Business Analyst
4) Run The Bank

What's the ranking structure like? Is it AM7 -> MGR6 -> AVP5 -> VP4 -> ??

Any idea what's the pay range like for each rank?

Thank you

i believe many of them are already granted PR status (perhaps fast tracked), so technically they aren't "FT".

and when media reported that a high percentage of bank employees are "locals", be very careful, because the definition of "locals" include PRs.

there must be a reason why they refuse to further break down the numbers. i'm very sure they know the % of citizens, % of PRs, and % of EP holders.

anyone notice the application site has changed?
