Fortunately for Idris, by the time he concluded his Bachelor’s Degree, a position has been open in the bank.
“One of our staff members got a higher role in the bank and was about to be moved to another department. Idris came to me and told me he was qualified and interested in the ‘would be vacant position’. My interest was piqued. Nothing gets me more than people development especially my team members,” Ayomide narrated.
Idris was thereafter grilled to test his capabilities and academic qualification to work as a banker. He aced all the tests and finally got the opportunity to show his brilliance.
