China Graduate Development Programme
The year-long China Graduate Development Programme offers you structured development through a series of job rotations and tailored training courses, enabling you to gain a clear insight into our growing business in China. Our two tracks give you the opportunity to choose and focus on the type of client segment you would like to specialise in - Corporate, Investment Banking and Markets or Consumer Client. On either programme, you’ll find dedicated support and commitment to develop your professional, technical and personal skills, giving you the best possible start in the world of banking. All roles offered at the end of the China Graduate Development Programme will be based in China.
Corporate, Investment Banking and Markets
On our Commercial Investment Banking and Markets track, you’ll rotate throughout our Commercial Client, Investment Banking, FX/Derivatives, Transaction Banking and Risk Management business units. The programme will give you a broad insight into the work of these various functions, allowing you to make an informed decision as to where best your skills and interests lie.
Consumer Client
On our Consumer Client Segment track, you will enjoy rotations through our Consumer Banking business across China. You’ll contribute to areas as diverse as Sales, Product Development, Client Engagement, Marketing, Strategic Planning and Business Banking. This will give you comprehensive knowledge of the booming consumer industry with a view to specialising in one of the functions on completing of the programme.
Application process
After initial screening, if we think you have what it takes we'll invite you to the first stage of our selection process. If you pass the reasoning test here you'll be invited to a first-stage competency interview.
After this, if you're successful you'll be invited to the second stage, which involves an interview with an experienced professional and an interview to test your responses to a number of hypothetical situations. Then you'll take on a case study involving written work, a one-to-one meeting with a 'client' and a group meeting. You'll also have the chance for an informal discussion with recent graduates and representatives from your chosen business area.
