How it all started? Amidst many companies that come to campus for Internships and Placements, RBS is one such Bank that started recruiting from premium colleges for its RBS-ACE program from the last few years. Since this program was new, we had apprehension regarding the opportunities, type of work, and growth one can get in RBS. This program excited me for the first time in its preplacement talk when it talked about three stints in different functions for six months, each among Risk, Finance, Operations, and Technology. They had openings in all its five fields: i.e., Risk, Finance, HR, Technology, and Operations. Its recruitment process included PI, in which questions were mainly based on my CV and RBS. From the preparation point of view, panelists mostly look for work-experience and their fit in RBS culture. So, getting verse with CV and better communication skills can give one edge over others.
