Bank of Maldives has celebrated the success of its Graduate Internship Program.

During the ceremony held to celebrate the success of the Graduate Internship Program, BML announced the continuation of the program for the fourth year with 15 new graduates and students from local higher education institutions.

The 12 month internship program allows students to gain on-the-job experience and provide a pathway to permanent employment within the bank and other financial institutions in Maldives. Interns will be rotated across a number of business units, departments and branches to let them gain experience and develop skills. Each intern is assigned to a mentor to guide them through their time at the bank.

BML highlights that the company's Graduate Internship Programs provides the opportunity to be part of the best paying internship program offered in the country. As such, interns earn as they receive their on-the-job training and upon successful completion of the program, will be eligible to apply for full-time positions at the Bank.

BML’s In-charge and Acting MD, Aishath Noordeen commented that this program has helped them nurture fresh graduates to gain valuable job experience. She stated that the bank can proudly say that 80 percent of individuals progressed to work as full-time employees at the Bank and other institutions after the completion of the program.

Bank of Maldives has received the ‘Asia’s Best Employer Brand Award’ for four consecutive years from the World HRD Congress and the Employer Branding Institute for the Bank’s commitment to people excellence and its progressive policies in the areas of recruiting, developing and retaining talent.
