DBS Management Associate Program
Hi guys!
I'm going to graduate in Spring 2016. Just now I know that MA in OCBC will go to KL for a week. Anyone know the DBS & UOB? I heard from my friend in Hong Kong, he said DBS MA in Hong Kong will come to Singapore for training and workshop for a few weeks. Wonder if anyone knows DBS MAP in Singapore will go to somewhere else. If so, where will the MA go? What would be the duration of the trip? Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!! |

as for DBS, it is indeed true that MAs from HK and various other territories will come to Singapore for a few weeks of training. the Singapore MAs will, hence, be training tgt with the overseas MAs in singapore. there is, however, no plan or arrangement for Singapore MAs to go overseas for any form of training. Singapore is afterall the HQ of the bank so it doesnt really make sense for the Singapore MAs to fly to any other place to receive training. hope that helps :) |

:eek::eek: That means no overseas experience for DBS MA? I think going out of the home country is really important. Even DBS HQ is in SG, the system in other countries would be very different! It would be good to experience other working culture as well as establishing network with other potential colleagues overseas :( |

because going by the latter, there're practically no banks that make it mandatory for their MAs (or Young bankers) to have overseas experience, other than the initial training programme. for example, other than the very short one week in KL, OCBC's young bankers are domiciled in Singapore, and Singapore only. in general, unless there is a departmental requirement or you displayed exceptional performance that the senior management earmarks you even among your fellow MAs, i dont think there will be any mandated form of overseas posting in any of the banks |

alternatively, instead of applying to DBS SG for MA, you can just apply to the MAP in DBS HK or other territories. some singaporeans have done that and it worked just as well |

That is 1 main limitation of joining local co. & why the best talents always aim for foreign banks or mega mncs. Local co. dun have much outside sg.
If u look at DBS besides sg, only 2 countries with sizable presence is indo & hk. Even then they are run locally with a few snr mgrs sent there from sg. So if ur just finish school & want to get global or even asia exposure, best is go for global banks. |
