ICICI Business Leadership Programme - Min 3 Yrs Work Ex Required

Hi, I have applied for the 2012 batch. i am currently working with Bank of Baroda and have previously worked with ICICI bank for 2 years. On the topic of people from non finance backgrounds working in banks, I have noticed this phenomenon everywhere. Most people are attracted to banks because in our country, the banking sector is the second largest employment provider after Govt. And also, the recession has prompted many people to look for opportunities in areas not in their forte. But its a sad scenario as though most of them earn good salaries, they end up being disappointed and frustrated. And let me tell you, Core Banking is a never ending thankless job. in banking operations you endup doing the same thing day in and day out for years together. Most people cant cope up with that kind of environment. Only the sales part is better in terms of pay and work. And not every one can sell. But nevertheless, people are driven by money and most people would rather give up their dreams and live with their frustrations because of the good paycheck at the end of the month. So, best of luck to everyone who has applied. 😃

No they are not going to short list you. Last time i was not shortlisted. My experience was also the same as yours. It happened only once in the April batch that they selected a candidate with less than 3 years and that too because he didnt mentioned his details correctly in the application. But ultimately he was shown door in the interview.

I spoked to ICICI HR after rejection of my application. They told me till date on which you are applying you should have completed 3 years. Pls try and understand its the eligibility criteria. If you dont fall into it you are not eligible. Its as simple as dat.

So better luck next time. Coz even if you will be through written you would be shown doors in interview. So chill out.

Hey Guys

I have just appeared for my CA Final Exams held in Nov. 11 and Planning to do MBA from ICICI-NU

I have Completed my 3.5 years of Articleship

Do they consider articleship training as work Experience???

I had filled the form yesterday. Didn't get any mail or sms till now.

Profile:
37 months in Top Indian IT firm.
Academics -- Good. Was topper of my batch in graduation.

Will keep track of activities on this thread.

Kindly let me know what specific preparation is required?

No dude. Its professional work experience. Internship and Article ship are not counted as work ex. And since you have appeared for CA Final Exam and you are yet to be a CA this programme is not for you.

Gaurav
