Kenya Commercial Bank is obviously one of the most appealing
employers in the Kenya banking industry. It is said to pay its workers decent
salaries, and it is very prestigious to tell people that 'you work at KCB'. But
one question that tends to come up often, especially in discussions among
recent university graduates, is as to how exactly people get jobs at KCB. So
you often find a recent university graduate who desires to get a job at KCB,
but can’t quite figure out where to start.
Now it is only the Kenya Commercial Bank HR officers who can
tell with certainty how people get jobs there. So for an authoritative take on
how people get jobs at Kenya Commercial Bank, the best thing to do is contact
the company’s HR office for advice. Another way in which you can know for sure
how people get KCB jobs is by talking to the individuals who are already
working there. So this would be a question of approaching one of them, befriending them genuinely, and eventually requesting him or her tell you how he or she got the KCB job he is currently
holding.
What
we know for sure is that KCB does advertise job vacancies in the media from
time to time. Some of the entry-level positions you may find ads for are those
for graduate clerks and management trainees. So if you are eager to get a job
at KCB, the best thing for you to do would be to be on the lookout for these
media ads. Once you come across them, just make your application and wait to
see if you will be shortlisted and invited for a KCB job interview. You can also be visiting the ‘careers’ section of the Kenya Commercial Bank website from time to time, to see if there are suitable job vacancies for you there. Or you can proactively send your CV to KCB, just to see whether they put it in their database and contact you when they have an opening..
In the meantime, you should of course find something to occupy your time. Like, for instance, if you have good IT skills, you can in the meantime be working at a cyber, helping people with questions like how to apply for kra pin while also helping students with questions like the one on how to apply forhelb loans online. It is just a question of keeping yourself busy, as you wait for your dream job at KCB or whichever other bank you wish to work for...
