October 19, 2021

No-one needs to be familiarized with the ill-effects of Coronavirus on the global economy anymore. With work norms being turned upside down, every organization, whether large or small and irrespective of the industry vertical, has had to adapt to remote working methods. People are being hired online, they’re being inducted virtually, and everything is being managed through computers and the Internet.

Even institutions like banks have switched to offering virtual introductions to new hires. Sounds weird, right? But it’s true. Several high-ranking financial institutions have stepped forward to offer whatever assistance they can to people entering the financial field. In many countries, finance graduates are being inducted using virtual sessions. And some of the largest banks around the world are using this strategy.

  • Similarly, Standard Chartered is running an online internship program that consists of 300 applicants from 15 channels. The bank’s head of early careers, Melissa Angerson, said that this continued commitment to their internship program despite the current condition is not only the right thing to do, but it is a stepping stone to the digitalized future of work. The financial institute is recruiting all its 2019 graduates at the end of their programs. They also have over 400 slots for the 2020 interns. The bank is also planning to recruit over 200 students from the Asia space.
  • HSBC is organizing a training program on green finance and has also planned online learning schemes about the future of banking, as well as women in banking.
  • UBS Group AG has a plan to train and recruit 300 graduates in Singapore for the next 18 months. Training for the first set of 150 people will begin in October, and they will be inducted using a 60/40 work-study plan. The bank has also made a similar plan for 60 graduates in Hong Kong.
