Chandigarh (03/12/10)

In coming years around One Lakh vacancies are going to be filled by Banking Industry in India due to retirements, resignations and expansion of business. Majority of Bank Employees are getting retired in coming years. There is going to be a lot of opportunities for MBA students, especially for those who are having Finance as their specialization.

This was said by Mr. R. K.

Mr.Rakesh Sethi (Zonal Manager, BOI) was the Guest of Honour and Dr. Anshu Kataria, Chairman, AGC presided over the function.

Mr. Goyal said that HR is not only about recruitment, but its more about retention which is not at all easy for any Banking organization these days. He added that now a days, those students who want to make a career in Bank, they prefer MBA, CA, CS, ICWA, MBA in Finance and Banking etc. as these type of courses are more helpful in absorbing into banks.

Mr. Rakesh Sethi said that to retain their employees including new entrants, BOI is putting many efforts like introduction of Loans at cheaper rates, Employee Training abroad and many other fringe and non-fringe benefits.
