GTB asks trainees to write own obituaries
Banks in Nigeria, including GTB and Access
Bank, are making illegal and unreasonable
demands from people they intend to hire.
Having spent almost two unproductive years
at home after graduation, Evelyn was badly in
need of a job. After passing the aptitude test
and first interview, she was pretty confident as
she walked out of her second interview for a
management trainee position at Access Bank.
But her confidence immediately atrophies like
an ice cube thrown into a burning fire when
she was told, over the telephone, by an official
of the bank that she needed to source a total
of N1 million from at least 10 new customers
within a week as a prerequisite for being
employed.
Her parents immediately kicked against her
continuing with the recruitment process
saying it was exploitative. But the thought of
having to sit at home for an indefinite period in
search of another job was far scarier for
Evelyn. She was determined to meet the
bank’s demand.
Hard as she tried, she could only get eight
people to open new accounts with the bank.
Two days later she got a call from the bank
telling her she didn’t make the cut.
“In Access Bank it has to be ten over ten or
nothing,” the voice at the other end of the
phone said.
Evelyn was devastated. She felt used and
dumped.
