Do banks get in by connections? How fair is the recruitment examination in that bank?

First of all, the recruitment of foreign banks is the fairest. In the group written test and group discussion interview, you will know where you are in a pile of applicants on the spot. HR and department managers in charge of recruitment are mostly foreigners, depending on the quality of employees. Joint-stock banks are also good, paying attention to the comprehensive ability of candidates. Whether there is a relationship is a certain reference, but it is not absolute. Let's split it 50/50. The problem of state-owned banks in China is more serious, so you should be prepared psychologically. Many recruitment exams are superficial, and some exams are just a formality, and the personnel have already been decided.

Secondly, every bank has a good department and a bad department; And the demand for grassroots employees is huge. Counter managers, lobby managers and even account managers who are engaged in repetitive and tedious work are basically recruited fairly. And you have to go to the head office, to the R&D department, to the system department, to the product department, to the international trading department, to the fund operation department ... The probability of these departments of state-owned banks entering through the recruitment examination is as small as the probability that you can write the molecular formula of melamine without learning chemistry.

Finally, as a bank employee, I suggest you go to a foreign bank or a joint-stock bank to take the recruitment examination.
