Al Salam Bank aims to hone the skills of this year's participants, comprising 16 female and 13 male graduates, to enter the competitive job market. In addition to practical training assignments, the interns will undergo group projects overseen by experienced in-house mentors. The winning team will be rewarded based on their innovative solutions designed to enhance the services provided by Al Salam Bank.

 

As part of their training experience, the interns will have the opportunity to visit Bahrain Bourse to gain firsthand insights into the workings of the stock market and its role in the banking sector. Through this visit, the Bank also aims to deepen the graduates' understanding of the dynamics of working in local financial markets and the financial sector.

We continue to invest in the Kingdom's youth with possibilities to nurture and refine their skills to enhance their future career paths. 

 

“Through our summer internship programme, we aim to provide graduates with well-rounded training that prepares them for successful careers in the banking industry. We believe in investing in the future of local talent, recognizing them as the kingdom's greatest asset."-- TradeArabia News Service
