So far from what I have heard, some people have received invitations from UBS, JP Morgan and Bank of Singapore already for DA track...

They will never tell score lah. Did not get through to the next stage something like that.
hmm interesting. I havent got any interviews yet and didnt ask because my friend asked. He got a response saying they do not disclose assessment results . Will be contacted for interviews if shortlisted by the participating companies.

They should just show the score for technical assessment right after we took the test. By then we know ard whether we pass or not and dont need to wait and wondering like this.

Curious, even if we pass the test but we not shortlisted by the FIs we would not getting to the program also rite?

Wah, then small chance to be selected if our CV not good enough, like applying a normal job.

I can check my application status from here, still under evaluation. Mycareerfuture website under CareerConversionProgramme Application

Dunno if it means I passed the Tech assessment and just need to wait if any FIs shortlisted.

Yeah if you passed the Tech assessment just need to wait for any email or calls from FIs to schedule for interview. I believe within these 1-2 weeks should be the hot period for most FIs to be sending out invitations for interviews.

FIs get to pick the talent they deem more suitable for their roles. So I believe CV and experience is also a contributing factor whether one gets shortlisted for any interviews..

One more question, i anyone know if the courses that held for few months before start to work at FIs, will be Full time means all-day courses? It said will be started in December.

Now Im still under job contract and only end in January, wondering if the courses will be online or night time, so I dont need to resign early from my contract job, or if I can request to join only after my contract end.

I know too early to ask as I have not even shortlisted by FIs yet, but I want to prepare and whether I need to disclose this to FIs and asking them on interview, I worry will be affecting my outcome later,

Like that, how we can convert to new career, as most of us will not have experience in the Role, thats why we joining this program as starter, but not even have a chance if FI not keen to give chance for non experience.

TFIP video did mention if you intend to sign the offer, you have to resign from your current job.

Yes, I feel that IBF and FI have conflicting objectives. IBF intends to convert people into finance tech type of job from other industries. But FI wants somebody who are ready to do the job at the low job level and low cost. The latter also want to limit it's risk of the project failure, delays should the person they get be really not IT good enough. That's my impression.

For existing applicants, in the event a particular training programme is over-subscribed or training positions at a particular financial institution have been filled, IBF reserves the right to refer applicants to other available positions.


TFIP/IBF will do their best to keep referring passed test applicants to as many participating companies as possible bah.

Nobody knows how each FIs will shortlist their candidate. But by looking at your CV, they may be able to understand your past experience or field of studies or even a bit about your character, not saying that you must have past work experience in the said role. I believe there are FIs that prefer to give chance to non-experience but good-fitting candidates.
