The Windward Islands Bank Ltd. (WIB) welcomed eighteen students – some in high school and others home from university overseas – to their annual Summer Work Experience Program.
In a brief orientation on June 30, the soon-to-be employees were informed of bank’s Code of Conduct, Dress Code and other policies; as well as the bank’s expectations of them during their stay at WIB (July 4 to July 29). The students will gain a wealth of knowledge and skills, while at WIB for this one month period.
The students were also introduced to WIB’s Managing Director Mr. Derek Downes, who welcomed them, and encouraged them to do their best both at work and at school. He advised them to take advantage of this opportunity to amass as much knowledge as they can, which could be an asset to them in the future.
The departments which will provide hands-on work experience for the students include: Credit Administration, Branch Network Services, Insurance, I.T. and Office Services to name a few.
Your Partners in progress wish the students a successful work experience.
