    Keep thinking and try your best.

    Due to my academic background, I had zero financial knowledge. I still remember the first time I wrote a credit report during my job rotation in the Credit Analysis Department. I had no idea what I was writing and even mentioned the wrong unit in the report. The amount of information to process daily was immense.

    One of the most important things I learned during the training is constantly pushing myself to take my skills up a notch.

    CTBC's IRM program aims to cultivate trainees’ business skills, allowing us to rotate between different units. Therefore, we can observe various business models of different companies, from Taiwan's micro-enterprises to listed domestic and international companies, and learn how to conduct business with relevant organizations. However, the most significant thing I learned during the journey was constantly pushing myself to take my skills up a notch.

    “We are family” isn’t just a slogan.

    To be an outstanding IRM, proficiency in foreign languages is an indispensable secret weapon apart from sales skills, familiarity with corporate banking knowledge, and communication skills for credit checking. I think the best part of the IRM program is that its content is tailored by the HR and planning teams according to our future career plans. CTBC also provides weekly second language courses and equips us with the necessary skills during the rotation in the training period to perform tasks of various units.

    Nothing can stop your progress if you don't limit yourself.

    Hello everyone, Salam kenal semua. I grew up in Indonesia and chose to return to Taiwan for my university studies. I joined CTBC after graduating. Being CTBC's IRM is my first job, and it has shattered the misconception of "colleagues at work, strangers after work." I have made many like-minded friends here, making communication at work more efficient.

    CTBC's solid training and managers' coaching are critical for becoming an international corporate banking talent in the future.

    Looking back on the training period, the longest, most intensive, and solid training experience was the ten months as an ACM. From a person who knew nothing and was unsure where to start with the materials, I grew into someone who could efficiently and proactively complete reports ahead and even draft complex new cases and PAM-SAM structures independently.

    Brave the wind and the billows; when the going gets tough, the tough get going. Hone your skills to grow and go beyond yourself.

    Most MA programs in the industry aiming to cultivate business talents merely focus on performance, while CTBC's IRM program offers a comprehensive and all-rounded learning platform. The program provides IRM job rotation across the front, middle, and back offices, allowing participants to understand how the organization operates. It also helps to cultivate the ability to identify customers and risks, foster communication, coordination, and crisis management skills, and establish a good rapport with coworkers.

    It's not just work, it's also embracing cultural diversity.

    I am an Indonesian Chinese who has lived in Taiwan for nearly six years. During this time, I gradually realized that I enjoy meeting people from different countries and learning about various cultures, which was one of the reasons why I chose the IRM Program.

    Don’t walk, just run!

    Since joining CTBC, my experience has aligned with the information about the program that I heard during the interview. This program is unique because we could experience both front-office and back-office work during the training, allowing us to engage in various roles and tasks without being confined to a specific position. We learn to approach things from different perspectives and understand how to communicate effectively across departments when facing challenges.
