Kotak Bank is likely to ink pact with the Manipal University, in Bangalore to launch a post-graduate diploma in banking and relationship management. The candidates on completion of the course can join the bank as a probationary officer for branch banking.
The bank will also carry out training programmes to make candidates familiar with the bank's products and processes as well as its working culture, other than the university's professors. The bank will launch the programme in December and will start with a batch of 60 students in the first two quarters. Subsequently, in every quarter the batch size will be 120.
The bank aims to hire about 300-400 candidates through this course every year. Currently, the bank is hiring 400-500 candidates every month. Earlier, for probationary officers banks relied heavily on management graduates from campuses, which it would now try to rationalize and use this route (Kotak's post graduate diploma). The course fee will be Rs 3 lakh, with a finance option from Kotak Bank. An added feature is that 85% of the course fee will be refunded after the candidate completes four years in the bank.
