DBS Graduate Associate Program

Hi guys! I applied to dbs tech & ops in early Oct & now I'm in the video interview phase!
So nervous becuz I'm not sure what qns would come up! By compatibility qn, do u meant competency qns?

Anyone who r oso heading for t&o? I'm aiming to go for ops! Let's keep this forum alive again!

@Jas u have to Google dbs joyful journey then go thru the game. A webpage with the link to apply the programme will surface upon completion of the game!

competency question are general HR questions. Show your leadership, show your character. show if you are a good fit for culture. just be yourself. no point forcing a character to fit the company and end up not being a good fit.

gonna bring this up again, but seriously people, don't apply for the program

Is this program really dropping in quality?
I just got video interview. Been waiting for 1 week +
Anyone received call for panel interview?

Any updates after video interview?
techs candidate here.

Attended the panel interview this week. No news yet

Hi all, I've previously submitted a query on the video interview questions!

I've completed the video interview on tuesday 13 dec and just received an email from the HR to complete a shl competency assessment.
They state that they will then contact successful candidates for panel interview based on the test.
I'm quite confused as to why there are so many tests. This is because I've done one before the video interview stage and wasn't expecting another one. Anyone can enlighten me, thanks thanks!

PS: I'm not sure why the programme is claimed to have deteriorated in quality. I'm still keen to join the programme though! Haha

Hey hi! How is the panel interview like? what kind of questions do they ask? appreciate your help cause I am considering applying!

Panel interview is just a 'panel' of 2 - 3 person interviewing you. There is no assessment center. OMG I told you guys this is just way for the bank to hire graduates for grunt work for the umpteen times. They will not make it so hard to get in with an assessment centre. Interview questions really depends on your interviewers, but generally the questions are easy, show leadership, show initiative, show proactive-ness, show you match the culture. This program has a freaking bond, so your competition wouldn't be that high just go in and be yourself.
