Fidelity Bank Plc says it is building a new crop of young and talented workforce through its graduate recruitment scheme.
The new inductees, who passed out of the Fidelity Crest Academy after a rigorous three months training programme, were admitted into the bank’s workforce on Friday.
In a statement on Wednesday, the lender said the new workers were recruited early this year and sent immediately to the bank’s school.
The Chief Executive Officer, Fidelity Bank, Mr. Nnamdi Okonkwo, urged them to make use of the exposure and training to excel in their various job functions.
He stated that the rationale for setting up the Fidelity Crest Academy was to have a banking school that would help in training and equipping staff with the right skills to excel at work and compete favourably in the market place.
According to him, the bank places a great premium on its people and the academy was pivotal to grooming the next set of leaders of Fidelity Bank.
Okonkwo said, “It is our desire to see a future CEO of Fidelity Bank from among you. We are committed to training you and giving you the right foundation to succeed. It is up to you to rise to the occasion and justify our investments in you.”
