For the fourth consecutive year HSBC Bank Armenia provides local and
international career development opportunities to HEI students and
young talents by conducting summer internships and Management Trainee
(MT) programmes.
To date, 42 students and 9 graduates benefited from these programmes,
which enable gaining hands-on experience in core banking business
locally as well as internationally, make an early career decision,
and earn the opportunity to secure a job when they graduate. After
successful completion of the internship the bank has employed 15 of its
interns and trusted 9 managerial positions to management trainees who
completed MT programmes in HSBC Group member banks in bigger markets
like UK, China, UAE and other European countries.
Initiatives of the bank also encompass developing relationships with
the local universities. The Bank's Human Resources Department is
engaged in regular consultations with HEI career centres which aim
to foster talent development and management for the local market.
Recently the Head of HR Department represented HSBC insights on
young workforce employability and market development opportunities
at the republican seminar held at Yerevan State University with the
participation of many HEI career centre representatives, education,
government and industry experts.
"Our people are fundamental to our business success; we continually
invest in them providing professional development solutions locally
and internationally. Since 2009 we spent AMD 50 mln on training
and development projects engaging 80% of employees, besides six
of my colleagues currently work in leading positions at HSBC Group
member banks abroad who will come back and bring the internationally
gained experience to Armenia. At HSBC we are not supporters of only
experience diversification but also of human resources: currently
we have employees from around 8 different regions of RA and 3 other
countries," said Head of Human Resources, Elvina Aghajanyan.
