guys anyone help please ????

well not sure about the implications of putting Yes .....

I have applied in the previous selections of NIIT-ICICI MBA program and was not selected. This time I have applied and put that I have applied in the last 6 months while submitting the application.

Anyways...even if they have some criteria of not entertaining the candidates who has applied in last x months....then even if you put Yes or No....

they would be able to filter out since they have the other personal details...which can not be changed even if a person applies for n times

my suggestion....

go ahead and dont be skeptic..and put that you have applied..

Good luck!

Hi Puys,

I applied for the PO program for this may 2011 but wasnt selected. ALso there is a question asked while filling the form as hav you applied for this post (I mean this leadership program). What should I put there ? should I say NO ?

Also when will the written be conducted ?

guys anyone help please ????

hii puys
i have some queries,hope to get it resolved.
1) Does the JOB profile which ICICI will be offering 2 yrs down the line involves marketing and achieving targets ?? if the ans is yes ,then if someone doesnot want to go into marketing,then is there any other choice??


2) what will be approx in hand salary? the P.O Programme offered through Manipal promises to give 4 lc package but the inhand salary is in the range 20k-25k per month..

for question 2)

It all depends what sort of ctc breakup is offered by ICICI...whether its 80:20(appox 80-85K) or 70:30 (70-75K) or 60:40 (65-70K) in the FIXED:VARIABLE pay

values in brackets shows appox in hand salary...

for question 1)

The variable pay may partially depends on the targets sets...
but this may not be as strict as it is in hardcore marketing jobs...

and yes as its written on the ICICI careers website....its all as per choice of the ICICI bank depending on the demand at the time of completion of course that a particular department is alloted..

Dear pkrishnammag & other puys

Please be patient, as I quoted earlier please read the whole blog from starting, you will get to know the present batch profile & it will also answer your 3-year query, along with others.

You are very much eligible, please go ahead, one person in our batch is just 2 or 3 mnths short of 3 yrs of experience. If you meet all other eligibilities this experience issue can be taken care of.
In any case you should apply, as you will get to know your application status within few days & there is no application fees, so there is no point of not applying because of some confusion.

All the best puys.


P.S
1) Please be patient in terms of getting your responses as I quoted earlier that we have busy schedule & we might not be visiting PG daily. We will try to close the queries in a week time. Read this complete post from starting again, lots of your doubts will be cleared.
2) The views expressed are personal.

Hi

Cheers

Hi Everyone,

This is Homagni Dutta from Mumbai.Very new on pagalguy.
Would like to know if anyone received any confirmation from ICICI regarding receipt of the loan documents.
Also include me for the travel plan from Delhi to Neemrana on 29 th morning.

Bye,
HKD

@ A.B. thanks

@Satyem, the distance is around 100 km from Gurgaon.

Map on NIIT University website mention time "75 minutes" to reach NIIT from Guragon

Unable to find the distance

vishalmba Says

We ve to. right? Since the dist. is only 75 km that should not be a problem. We can share a cab

Dont go exactly by the map on the NIIT Univ site.
The distance is around 100 Km from Gurgaon and around 130 Km from Delhi.

But assuming there are no 'huge' traffic jams on the Delhi-Gurgaon section you can certainly reach by 1 PM, but its better to keep some buffer if possible rather than reach at the last moment.

angshumanp Says

will it be possible to reach before 1 om after starting from delhi around 10 am. are u planning to go by bus?

Hello future bankers,

I am sachin menon, one of ur would be college mates at NIIT. I just had a talk with Himal Rana regarding the documents ICICI has sent across to us for our loan processing and these are the major clarifications that was given by Himal:-

1) The EMI per month would not be Rs. 9000. It would be more than 8000 as mentioned by Rahul in his post, but less than 9k. After going through the calculations once again Himal would be sending us the revised documents by tomorrow.

2) On the afidavit cum declaration form there is a line which says "as per terms and conditions I am likely to be employed with ICICI Bank on successful completion of the said MBA program". We can drop the word "likely" before getting the document franked and notarised.

3) There are clauses which are left blank in the GUARANTEE FOR PERSONAL LOAN form. We are to write not applicable in those blank spaces before getting it franked and notarised.

If u people have had any discussion on the matter or have any clarifications from ICICI official kindly post them here as well.

Mr. Himal Rana told me that he is not going to send a revised form (he also wanted to convey this to Sachin). He said the emi is going to be more than 8000 for the initial few months so they have mentioned it as 9000.(similar to Rahul's post).2 months before joining ICICI or start of emi we will receive a document with the exact emi amount that will be debited..So he asked us to fill up the already sent form only.

@ Shailendra and Assam, lets plan it for Wednesday late evening like 7 PM, if not possible then we can plan for thursday morning......

Hi Delhi Puys!!


Lets target a date of filling and completing all the formalities of the forms & guarantee etc. and before sending all the docs to ICICI Mumbai, sit somewhere together so that we can cross-check each others forms.

Just an Idea, I discussed dis with Youth Nexus & he is quite OK with it.
All other inputs & suggestions ::

Yes, I think we can do this ...

It will help us minimize mistakes, if et all any, corrections can be done on the spot, before we finally disptach the entire lot ........

I think we should target wednesday evening or thursday morning ....

Talked to NIIT univ. regarding the Three passport size photographs and blood group which is to be sent to NIIT..
We have to send it to the same address of NIIT University, Delhi addressing Rajat Pathak and the second thing as informed by them is to get a certificate of blood group from any laboratory. I told them that I already know my blood group, but they insisted to get a certificate for the same....

Hi Puys,
I have 2 months of notice period & my firm is not willing to release me early. In case any one else is facing same problem, pls contact.

Hope to see u there !

Rgds,
Vishal

bro.. i too am with the same problem.. not even two.. mine is three months notice period.. am working with my manager to release me on April 26th... i got to look for a replacement and make sure that my responsibilities are transferred to the newly appointed resource. then only it is possible to 'Think' to release me this is what my manager said.. all that i can do now is to search for a candidate and pray the god to bless my manager with cool mind to think about me..

Cheers..
Harish Vijayendra

Hi Vishal

I too was facing the same problem ..My company too had 2 months notice period,

You can try talking to ur boss try convincing him....Maybe do some comp off on sat sunday if possoble..Coz I am doing the same....
I talked to ICICI also when the results were out...they said most companies accept a shorter notice period if you are going for higher studies...

Amit

@Amit n Vishal - what I think is that ICICI just needs a proof of discontinuation of our services with our present employer as it is mentioned in the 3rd point of our offer letter by ICICI, it is clearly mentioned that they require either relieving letter or any other evidence establishing such discontinuance of our employment so frnds if in worst case scenario, your employer is not relieving you just have the copy of your "accepted resignation" (mind it 'accepted') from your present company, it's a sufficient proof that states that you are not continuing your job with them.. I have talked earlier regarding the same, when we received the call from ICICI regarding the queries and they agreed upon this We need a proof which authenticate that we have left our previous organization.. Have a word with HR person of ICICI for the same and they will agree upon this cheer up will c u there... :-)

can anybody explain the below mentioned points

1. Who can be the co - applicant

2. In Cluase (X) of Preliminary credit application form whether we have to provide the photograph and signature of References (clause IX) or the applicant

Hey guys, had a detailed talk with Himal Rana today morning.
Here are the inputs:
1. Regarding the phrase "likely to be employed" in Affidavit Cum Declaration form, he said these documents are made by legal guys & hence might have some ambiquous words. However, there is no need to worry when we have been sent the detailed T&C; from ICICI mentioning the guaranteed job & salary.

2. How will be the amount of INR 10,000 be adjusted? He said, NIIT will refund that amount back to us after joining. Do not know how much is this thing correct...

3. Why is the EMI amount INR 9000 when we were confirmed INR 8000 previously?
To this he said a very different thing... When we would be pursuing MBA for first 2 years, we would not be charged with any EMI. However, the interest rate would keep on accumulating of that amount at the rate of 2.5% compound interest for those first 2 years, which means, it would INR 11,250 first year & INR 11,531 for next year...means total would be INR 22,781.... This would be over and above the interest rate of 5 years (Post-MBA) in which we would be paying actual EMI.... In short, interest would be paid for 7 years in actual..... Thus the total EMI amount will be INR 8380 when divided in 60 equal payments (5 yr repayment period)......However, that wont be the case & we would be required to pay around INR 9000 for first few months till the EMI for rest of the months reaches INR 8000..... Hence, the amount mentioned in that form is INR 9000..... I was not aware about this thing......

4. Regarding the blanks in the form which we are unable to understand, he said, in case they are not answerable, leave them blank, or if they refer to some clause in some document which is not sent to us, then write NA over there.....

Hi Abhi,

Due to shortage of stamp papers there is a substitute to the same .. the same means by franked .. there are some banks which provide franking services ... we need to find out which banks provide this service in ur city/state in case there is shortage of stamp papers (which is likely coz of financial closing .. the licenses are getting renewed) ...

Puys,

Does anybody have an idea what it means by franked? In the email sent by nuibankmba it says that "The guarantee form on Rs. 500/- stamp paper/franked for Rs. 500/-" .. can somebody explain this ?

Dear All
