This report has a certain purpose to focus on the general banking of Social Islami

Banks are profit – earning concern. The ‘word “Bank” refers to the financial
institution deals with money transaction. Banks collect deposits at the lowest possible
cost and provide loans and advances at higher cost. The revenue earning sources of
banks are mainly loans and advances. Other than general banking the bank also
operates in foreign exchange. Opening up letter of credit is also one of the main
earning portions of this business.

This report is prepared with the goal of showing how much knowledge I have acquired, both
intrinsic and extrinsic, during my time working as an intern at Social Islami Bank Ltd. It also
aims at completing the final requirement for acquiring Bachelor’s degree at North South
University. The primary goal of internship is to provide students the opportunity to gain actual
work experience in the real world. Moreover, it helps students apply their theoretical

particular functions of General Banking of SIBL. Additionally, the report consists of my
personal observations, leanings, and overall experience gathered during the three-month
internship period at Social Islami Bank Ltd.
While I was able to learn quite a lot during my internship at Social Islami Bank, I have come
across two limitations. Due to confidentiality issues, I cannot share certain information
despite having a fair amount of knowledge on the matter. The second limitation is that
because of my position as an intern, I did not come across specific information related to my
major or anything of high importance. Internship period is all about getting to know and
adapting to the actual professional environment not learning the actual work. Because
learning opportunity is very much limited for interns in any organization. Although there
were many limitations, I tried to give my best effort to furnish the report
History & Overview of Social Islami Bank

Voucher audit and shorting: Voucher check was my every day work for these three
months. It was a very important but hassled job. As a result, every day I had to check many
voucher entries in accordance with the original voucher to make sure there was no mistake in
transaction throughout the day. This was the only way to ensure if there is any mistake in
transaction entry.
CIB (Credit Information Bureau) Form: For giving loan, a CIB form was very
important. I had to sometime fill up the all the information field of the customer and send it to
Bangladesh bank for the in-query of the customer to make sure he was not a loan defaulter in
any bank of the country. It helped greatly to minimize risk of the bank.
Prepare file: In foreign exchange and credit department almost every day, I had to prepare
the file for the customer for L/C opening and loan disbursement. Each file is for each customer
to track down the progress or to collect any information I needed to deal with the respective
customer. I had to number the file and collect all the documents needed to open an L/C or Loan
account. In addition, I had to update the file if any new documents arrived.
Register update: When I was in accounts department, I had to update the voucher register
for couple of time. It was basically used to keep the track of vouchers.
These were my major day to day activities during the internship period. I was assigned different
responsibility under different supervisors. I was shuffled in different sections in different time
in order to get done with all the sections. I was appreciated by my supervisors for my
contribution in the work.
Technical Skills: Throughout the time of internship I have learned and performed many
technical tasks to perform my job. I had learn and used Apache Open Office application to
perform jobs like typing OD application, Loan proposal etc. Open office application software
work same as M/S office so I used my MS office knowledge to use Open Office programs
like word, excel etc. I have also learned the use of Bank Software. A centralized core banking
software (ABABIL).This real time online platform independent ABABIL was developed by
a local vendor. In the bank everyone had to learn it because it is the software that Social Islami
Bank uses for all the transaction entry of every day operation.
Analytical Skills: Analytical skill is judging the effectiveness, utility of different task
programs which was very important while doing business in service industry like bank.
Therefore, in my internship I faced many problems those had to be solved with effectiveness
and efficiency like - large amount of mass data to analyze, serving mass customers, and doing
multiple tasks in various departments in one day. This honed my analytical skill for performing
a critical job. Therefore, I make my own way to analyze and perform multiple jobs together, and
found various new ways to deal with this mass amount work.
People Skill: Of the most important things I have learned in internship was how to
communicate with people. I had to face lots of clients from different departments of the branch
and I had to report to the Head of Branch sometimes. These practices made my formal
communication skills much better. I always believed that I had a good interpersonal skill and
there I had a chance to prove it. I had to constantly deal with individuals from different
customers and departments. Most of the time people from the other department used to be
impatient and inconsiderate but I used to handle them tactfully using my interpersonal skills.
On top of that, due to my interpersonal skills, I was able to build quite a few connections
with people from other departments.
Personal Development
This internship opportunity has polished and developed my time management, professionalism,
skill of multitasking, team work, ability to work under pressure, etc. which has a great impact
on my career. Attributes which are groomed and developed my personality through this
internship program are described below:
Punctuality: Last three months I had to go office every day timely. I had to stay in the office
from 10 am to 5 pm. This strict time management helped me to become more punctual.
Professionalism: Frequent Conduct with customers and interaction with employees through
formal communication has increased my professionalism.
Team Skills: I have also achieved team skills as all the tasks are separated from different
division. Each had different team of interns, employees and managers as well as different target
to achieve. Such experience has sharpened my ability to work in a team environment.
Multitasking and Ability to Work under Pressure: There was time when I had to
handle multiple tasks at a time under severe pressure. This has taught me how to prioritize my
workload and work effectively and efficiently.
Attention to Detail: Banking is all about proper documentation and handling agreement
papers which I got to acknowledge at the very first stage. A single mistake can result in a
serious crime. Thus my internship has taught me how to work efficiently as well as carefully.
Following Policy: Alike all banks Social Islami Bank is also a strict follower of Bangladesh
Bank rules and regulation. Thus before conducting any task I also needed to be alert that each
and every action whether is done following the policy.
These were the skills I got chance to develop during my internship period. I am confident that
in a bank I can be a very efficient employee as if now without any training. Therefore, I hope
that, I will be able to make the best use of these skills in the future.
In any new situation, we usually assume that everything will go just as we imagined but reality
is often different than our thoughts. With time things got better for me. As I have previously
heard from some of my relatives, that their internship experiences were limited to only
photocopying and scanning the documents or making coffee for the bosses. However, at SIBL,
the environment was different. I actually had the opportunity to implement some of the things
I learned in my academic life as well as gather important knowledge on how the industry runs.
However, it was a bit disappointing at times as I could not use my creativity or know-how in
some cases as these Local Companies has their own way of doing things.
Apart from that, I was very anxious about the organizational culture of SIBL as I heard that the
environment over there is rigid. To my utter surprise, the culture over there was very friendly
and cooperative.
At the beginning, I found things a bit complicated; as I had to follow up quickly on everything
that’s going around. People won’t repeat the same thing twice or provide thorough information
on how to do things around, even the simplest ones (How to set up the Printer connection or
the specific format for a survey report etc.).
However I caught up eventually, and thought at times I had it easy; because nowadays you
have access to all the information necessary in the Internet and it can assist you greatly. For
example, when I was asked by my supervisor to deliver the invitation letters; I had to go areas
at Dhaka city that I’m known with. But using Google Maps I was able to find those locations
quick, compared to my cousin who did his internship at around 2006 ,who did similar activities,
and it took him a great deal of time.
Plus working at Brand department seems promising; the members here work in tranquility and
the challenges they face are exciting. But for the time being, I have to evaluate the possible
options I have on joining an organization because it is going to be a vital transition for my life.
The reason being, whenever a person joins an organization he/she at least spend a year there
before moving to someplace else. So the first step needs to be right, and also bearing in mind
that, SIBL is a prominent option.
Redo this Internship - What I would have done
differently
Working here was a delightful experience; I have seen some of my friends being subject to
immense pressure (type of amount that is acceptable for a paid employee) during their
internship. The initial days were a bit confusing and boring but apart from that it was an
insightful journey.
But there is one thing that would have made the experience more pleasant. The space allocated
for this branch is not enough though they are working on it. It would even great if it was little
bit wide. As I heard that consumer is multiplied, sometime it’s very difficult to maintain the
client simply because there is no enough space for their waiting.
On top of that, all the employees of Social Islami bank Ltd. were very friendly in
nature which made both way interactions very easy. At first I was little worried that how
I would work with so many people who are older than me and because of this reason I
was a bit stiff in my starting days of internship. However, within the first week my
colleagues eased me up. In addition, within no time I felt part of the huge Social Islami
Bank Ltd. family.
My interaction with the co-workers and the other intern were very flexible and
smooth. Everyone was very friendly and cooperative in terms of work. We made up a
good team. Therefore, we never realized that we know each other’s for a few months.
In addition, our in charges were very concerned about the development of each of the interns
working here. This is one of the reasons, we as interns get equal priorities in terms of
communicating with the personnel.
Conclusion
Internship was a great real life learning experience. This was the last pit stop of my BBA
program at North South University and the next pathway to my future life. It gave me the taste
of corporate culture and prepared me for the upcoming professional and corporate life. It gave
me the opportunity of implementing my academic knowledge as well as taught me how to deal
with real life situation. This experience will be a memorable one and will come in handy in the
near future.
Weekly Journal
Week-1
Work Done:
I joined SIBL (Social Islami Bank) bank at 4th June 2017. In this journal I’m going to write
whatever what I did in my 1st week of internship means from 4th to 8th of June. At the very first
day, they let me write an application letter regarding my joining internship at SIBL. I have been
assigned to work under Mr. Rosidul Islam. Mr. Rosidul Islam told me to get introduce with
each and every employee who works at that branch and it took two to three days to get
introduced with them. As a new intern Sir didn’t pressurize me with much work. He just let me
do some stapler work, some photocopy works, transfer file from one desk to another and getting
few signatures after authorization from Mr. Anamul Haque sir and our branch Second Man S.
M. Salauddin Samrat sir. Beside, that week I learn how to fill up the “Credit Voucher” form.

were it have been asked to. Next, in A/C no means Account No, I have to write the Transaction
Particular Number and in the Credit It Section, I have to write the Transaction Particular Name.
After that, in the big blank side where it’s written In Credited Your Account Section: I have to
write – CA NO (Credit Account No) then the Advice No and again write the Date of entrance
of the transaction beside it. Then I have to write the transferable amount by word and of course
by number in amount section. Finally I have to use three different seal on that voucher, first
the T-24 seal (as ma’am said, it’s the very new software that they got), the Transfer seal and

Learning/ Achievements: In my first week, I have learnt a lot of things. First how to
communicate in a corporate environment; then maintaining a routine lifestyle: example –
waking up early and entering office at 9.30 am every day. Then I got to know what actually
happens in a bank and I learned that it is very important to keep an updated record of all the
deposit statements being authorized and realized. I also learned to fill up Credit Voucher form.
Notable Incident:
During my one week of internship period the promotion occurred.
Employees were very busy as it was the closing time for banking.
A silly mistakes of another intern in SIBL created a problem with the customer.
Week-2
Work Done:
In this journal I’m going to write whatever what I did in my 2nd week of internship means from
11th June 2017 to 15 June 2017. At the very first day of second week, Samrat sir let me do five
“Credit Voucher” forms of RFL-PRAN, Estern Builders, Meghna Petrolium & Happy Opal
Glassware. Then Rosidul sir tell me how to check the cr/dr voucher. After I’m done Voucher
stuffs, sir send me to Azad sir to learn how to do the LBC entree. He start by saying, LBC is
the short form of Local Bills for Collection. This transaction is important when one branch of
SIBL is willing to transfer credit to our or any other branch of it. First of all the branch who
will be debited will send a cheque to our branch then we will enter it on the LBC Register book.
In the register book there are few rows and columns where we have to fill up just the following
as like, firstly, Date and Bank Branch like Ashulia Branch, it’s the running date, secondly, Our
No, and it’s the serial number of the register. If previous serial were like 86/13, it will be 87/13
and the next one will be 86/13. Thirdly, Customer, here I have to write, the name of the
transaction transferring to, as like, Md. Kalam Ahmed / Md. Shamin khan . After that, in Draw
On section, here I have to write, Sicial Islami Bank Limited Ashulia means this cheque balance
is going to transfer fromAshulia, in this section I have to write the branch of cheque it came
from or from which the amount will be transfer to our branch. Finally, Amount Part, here just
I have to write the amount that is written on cheque . Next, Particular of Instrument Section, I
have to write this section as like as in cheque, as like, NDC/G 0547847 & Date – the running
date. Now we have to write LBC forwarding letter on the yellow color bank note book of the
bank, in this section first I have to fill up to whom we are sending it. If it’s inside Dhaka it will
be the EVP and if outside of Dhaka it will be the Manager. So, as this check we are receiving
from Ashulia that’s inside Dhaka, in this section writing designation is very important. Now I
have to fill up the gaps, our No: LBC No: 75/16. Then is Bank Section and Branch: here I have
to write the particular of instrument NDC/G 0343841 (depends on cheque) date, running date
and in place section I have to write: yourself (always it will be same). Now In the seal section
there are three seals that have to be putted here 1st the Crossing seal (means only our branch
can pay, he can’t issue it in any other branch) it will be sealed in the top front of the cheque.
2nd, specially crossing endorsement, it will be sealed in the last of the cheque and the last one
the Numbering seal, it will be used in the middle of the cheque and in the middle of the seal
were posted we have to write 86/13 collected from register book. This Advance No is being
written from Credit Voucher of the account.
Learning/ Achievements:
I have learnt how to write LBC means the Local Bills for Collection and this week I did Nine
of LBC received from different branch of our bank. Besides these, I understand register book
properly. In this week I also learned how to file up documents and maintaining a serial is very
important.
Observations/ Reflections:
One thing I observed that work never ends in a bank. It keeps on going. Even if you work the
whole day without stopping, even then you would not be able to finish. There are always new
activities, work, and tasks that need to be completed.
Notable Incident:
Employees were under pressure because of banking closing purpose.
Week-3
Work Done:
In this journal I’m going to write whatever what I did in my 3rd week of internship means from
18th June to 22th June. At the very first two day of third week, Samrat Sir let me do some “Credit
Voucher” & “LBC (Local Bills for Collection)” which I’m now expert I have to say. Then
Samrat sir sends me to Roshedul sir who is in charge on General Banking and tells me to learn
something from him. Roshedul sir start by saying that KYC form knows as know you customer
form belongs to the Bangladesh Bank and our bank has to send these forms to the Bangladesh
Bank annually, in this section client can get to know about their account condition, transactions,
collect bank statements and other functions that is performed by him. I was given some files
with clients’ account forms inside and assigned to complete the KYC form, attached with every
account form. In this form every necessary detail must be filled in which account holder’s
name, account number, account type, source of income etc must be clearly mentioned and
verified. I was instructed to write just the occupation (other things were filled up before) of the
clients in the form by checking the occupation box from the accounts form. If there is any
discrepancy appears, I was instructed to show it to Roshedul sir. Beside with it I was instructed
to check if the photocopy of national ID was attached in the forms. If not, then they told me to
note the account numbers. I found some forms which have no National ID and I noted the
accounts numbers in a paper. I also faced some other problems like no photo, not enough
information, the blank occupation box etc. I showed them to Roshedul sir and he checked the
accounts whether they are active or not. Some forms needed special attention so they were
given to the authorized people to check. Finally, Samrat Sir said me, he is going to teach me
how to do Debit Voucher and Pay Order stuff and how to write on register book next week.
Learning/ Achievements:Now I think I can fill up and check this KYC form without any
help from my coordinator and this week I fill up few of this form. This KYC form is very
important for a valid account. All documents are sent to Bangladesh Bank. If Bangladesh Bank
doesn’t get enough documents for customers, then the Bangladesh Bank sends notice within
six month to void that account. Hence, Bank should strictly monitor KYC form avoiding
customer harassment.
Observations/ Reflections: This was my third week in SIBL (Social Islami Bank limited).
I realized that when you are working in any bank, no matter how angry or sad you are or how
much stressed you are, you still have to maintain a calm mindset. You cannot lash out at anyone
and you have to keep on working.
Notable Incident: When I started work, I faced some other problems like no photo, not
enough information, the blank occupation box etc. I showed them to Roshedul Sir and he
checked the accounts whether they are active or not. In my working time one customer came
to me for transaction problem. Transaction problem caused because of lacking information
during account opening. Roshedul sir solved the problems after checking information.
Week-4
Work Done:
I have completed fourth week of my internship program in Social Islami Bank Limited, Ashulia
Branch Dhaka. This week I have not done anything new. I have done same tasks those I did in
previous weeks of my internship program. Like, I have done inward and outward
documentation, filled up different types of from, debit and ATM card documentation etc. As
this was the week before Eid vacation there was a huge pressure of work in the bank. Lots of
customer were visiting in the bank for their work.
Learning and achievement: This week I have learned how to work in a group. I have a
very good relation with my colleagues those are also doing internship in my bank. We have
good understanding about our works. We have perfect co-ordination related to our works. We
are switching and deleting tasks so that we can learn more.
Observations/reflections: This week I have observed you must have ability to work in a
group. It is very important in job sector specifically in banking sector. I have seen that all
officers are working in a group like immediately delegating tasks to each other. When
customers come for opening an account, all department officers work together. They make sure
the account is opened perfectly.
Notable incident: This week one notable incident was, one customer came into our bank
with her little child. She might be 3 to 4 years old. She was very much disturbing her mother.
Child was crying, running in the bank. Her mother was very much irritated by her child. Then
I picked the child in my arm walked through the whole bank so that her mother can peacefully
complete her form. And another thing was that customers were demanding for new notes of
money before Eid.
Week-5
Work Done:
In this journal I’m going to write whatever what I did in my 5th week of internship means from
2nd February to 6th July. At the very first two day of fifth week I couldn’t learn any new things,
because each and every one out there where too busy doing their own works that why I just did
whatever what I learn this far, beside I did some stapler work, some photocopy works specially
ID card and passport photocopy things, transfer file from one desk to another and getting few
signatures after authorization etc. I did something in Monday; I had gained another good
experience. By the instruction of Mr. Roshedul sir, I helped a customer to fill in the form’s
information for opening accounts. It was his first time opening his own account. So I guided
him through the processes, the papers required to open the account and the forms that has to be
attached with it. It was nice and he gave me his thanks as my patience with his constant
questions never faded. In the third day Azad sir got little bit free time to teach me new thing,
its Fixed Deposit Receipt (FDR) Account offers the customers the opportunity to invest a fixed
amount for a fixed period at a fixed rate of interest. He also added in his speech that, the
customers have the option to re - invest their funds both principal amount and interest amount
on maturity or principal amount and the interest amount being paid into their SB or CD
accounts. Then he shows me the percentage of interest book list for both individual and
corporate for any amount. Let me describe it here (as he showed me),
FDR for 3 (three) months & above but less than 6 months – 5.00%
FDR for 6 (six) months & above but less than 6 months – 5.25%
FDR for 1 (one) year & above but less than 2 years – 5.50%
Learning/ Achievements: At the beginning of the week, I was to complete the work what
I had learnt in the last week. Sometimes I was to work on salary book. I have learnt opening a
new account and I knew how to handle customer properly. In the middle week I knew about
Fixed Deposit Receipt (FDR) Account which offers the customers the opportunity to invest a
fixed amount for a fixed period. I also knew the individual and corporate interest rate.
Observations: When I helped a customer to fill in the form’s information for opening
accounts, I face some critical issues. I need some material for opening the account such as
attested picture, reference of any SIBL account holder and chairman certificate. Customer
asked he had a DBBL account but he didn’t need this type of material. Though he understood
clearly but he was little bit unsatisfied. I must follow the rules regulations of the bank. I
observed that customer will always not be happy whether I have to follow the bank bank’s
procedure.
Notable Incident: This was the rush hour of the bank and so each and every employee was
so much busy. So I couldn’t learn any more without FDR and casual task.
Week-6
Work Done:
In this journal I’m going to write whatever what I did in my 6th week of internship. I have learnt
a very important thing it’s about Receipt and Payment of FDR/ DPS. I also received the deposit
amounts of DPS, vouchers, FDR encashment funds in the same way. This day Roshid Sir told
me to seat nearby him. He starts by saying that, when a new cheque book arrives in our branch
after 3 working days it comes with a requisition slip. Sir told me to check the serial number
and the cheque with a requisition slip then I check the serial number and name of the cheque
book with the orders requested from the bank and the arrivals date are inputted in the software.
First cheque book is only given to the a/c holder. When he receives the book he has to sign the
first alike the a/c holding sign. An authorized person has to sign next. If some other person
wants to take the cheque he needs to bring the authority to collect cheque book signed by the
a/c holder. And in Cheque Serial Posting section some things are very mandatory to notice, the
person whose cheque is provided is again manually written in the register with name, account
number and the serial numbers. In order to make the cheque register with the name, account
number and the serial numbers, it will be active by again three requires 3 authorized persons
approval in computer. Sir also mentions that, both cash deposit receipt and cheque leaf is
provided from the bank. These are two types of cheque. One is open cheque which anyone can
present at the counter and teller is bound to make the payment. Besides that there is another
cheque named cross cheque where transaction is done through account. A cheque is called
special cross cheque if it mentions the name of the bank in which it must be drawn.
Learning/ Achievements: I have learnt how to handover Cheque Book & how to do
Cheque Serial Posting. I got idea about cheque. I knew about the classification about cheque.
Besides these, I did some “Credit Voucher” & “LBC (Local Bills for Collection)”, did some
“Debit Voucher”, and did some “Pay Order” as well in rest of the week.
Observations: One thing I observed that work never ends in a bank. It keeps on going. Even
if you work the whole day without stopping, even then you would not be able to finish. There
are always new activities, works, and tasks that need to be completed.
Notable Incident: There was no incident that took place which was significantly notable.
Except that the work load kept on increasing.
Week-7
Work Done:
My seventh week of internship starts by doing Debit Voucher and filling Pay Order. The debit
voucher will have a particular cash value and they are used to transfer money from one bank
account to another. One person will fill out an amount that the debit voucher will be worth to
the person who is receiving it. The voucher is then passed on to this person and they then pay
it into their bank and receive the total sum on the voucher in their bank account. First of all in
the title where it’s written “ we have debited your account as under” in this section I have to
write, being the a/o (amount) debited from the above a/c (account) transfer to different branches
as per as sheet enclosed. Then I have to write the amount as it is required in words and in letter,
then I have to use T-24 seal, the posted and the transfer seal, then write down the registered
code number under the T-24 seal, then make it authorized by Samrat sir and of course my
instructor Roshedul sir . That’s it. I’m done learning the Debit Voucher, and my very first work
of debit voucher was Good Neighbors BD ltd debit voucher. The next day sir taught me about
the pay order things, Negotiable instrument (such as a draft) which instructs a payer bank to
pay a certain sum to a third party is called pay order. And the blue slip should be fill up as it is
required based on the applicant banking transaction information. Sir showed me one of it and
told me to do as he did. That’s all I have learned in my seventh week of internship. That’s all I
got to write in my seventh week internship journal.
Learning/ Achievements: I did lot of things this week. I did some credit voucher, two of
the debit voucher (as I’m new it this work), some pay order, and some of the LBC. There are
two kinds of vouchers in different colors for debit & credit entries. Banks are following double
book keeping method of accounting & hence all debits will have corresponding credit entries.
I learned how to fill up credit voucher and debit voucher and the activity of those vouchers.
Observations: I enjoyed the week because task was very easy and there had a vacation mood
. To fill up debit voucher and credit voucher was completely new job for me. It is comparatively
easy work for me because it’s as like as check book. I did another two tasks which was pay
order and LBC in this week. I know about the activity of pay order and LBC. Hence, I complete
my job very well and supervisor was pleased to me.
Notable Incident: There was no incident that took place which was significantly notable.
Except that the photocopy machine was malfunctioned; hence, we scanned most of the file
instead of photocopy.
Week-8
Work Done:
I have completed Eighth week of my internship program in Social Islami Bank Limited,
Ashulia branch Dhaka. This week I have done not anything new. I have done previous types of
works like registration of debit card, credit card, and ATM card, cheque book, filled up forms,
put stamps etc.
Learning and achievement: This week I have learned to cope up with unexpected and
undesirable situation. Like fellow interns jealousy, supervisor’s rude behavior, argument with
peon etc. This is very common in work place and I have learned how to deal with them.
Observations/reflections: This week I have observed that you must be accountable for
your every action. You can’t pass your mistakes to others. You are completely responsible for
your action.
Notable incident: This week one notable incident was about unexpected behavior between
two coworkers which includes me. My branch manager asked me to put serial number on
outward. But I mistook and manager scolded very badly in-front of all the stuffs and customers.
Week-9
Work Done:
This week I am doing Locker opening .“Locker Opening” one of the most important service
that bank provide for its customers, and yes my 9th week internship start by learning about it.
Samrat sir is in charge of this sector, and as I’m working under him, so he briefs me as much
as necessary to know about it. This service is given only to some valued a/c holders. At first
sir told me to provide them the prescribed application form which they will properly fill and
sign (in case of new customer). Then the locker holder must provide a letter to the authority
letter of the bank granting permission to recover annual rent, in respect of the locker which will
be debited from the customer’s account. Then after verifying the signature on the authority
letter by an authorized officer, locker is provided and key is delivered and their software
provided, and locker number is kept confidential. Then sir describes me about the Locker
Register sector. Whenever any locker holders wanted to visit their locker they must have to
bring their keys and mention their secret locker number. Then from software the register page
is opened which included the date and duration of the visit to the locker along with his/ her
signature as prove of their visit is kept. Next day Samrat sir talked about post office savings
account. He said that date and signature should be verified. Then Payment should be marked
in the register. After that PO becomes stale after six month of its issue, it may revalidate if
tendered by the purchaser. Finally the balance of PO register is maintained every day to keep
a record of the PO issued daily and only after the end of the balance allows opening a new PO
block.
Learning/ Achievements: I learned about the Locker Register sector. Sir practically
showed all of this to me when one of our client came to check their locker. Finally he told
me to remember two very important things, first one is, Lockers are not leased to minors,
blinds, illiterates, insolvent persons and the second fact is, two keys are used for operating
a locker, one is delivered to the client and another master key is retained by the branch under
the custody of the manager in charge.
Observations: I observed that every department under general banking are connected each
other. They keep themselves chill, smiley and help each other. Hence we enjoy work on there.
Notable Incident: There was no incident that took place which was significantly
notable.
Week-10
Work Done:
My tenth week of internship start by learning TP (Transaction Profile) & continued by learning
CTR (Cash Transaction Report).Roshedul sir sent me to Mr. Samrat sir to learn about it, while
sir were working with Transaction Profile Update he told me to concentrate and ask question
the part I didn’t understood. Transaction profile is updated based upon the a/c holders’ nature
of transaction. I learnt from sir to prepared it by looking into the type of transaction the
customer had done such as cash deposit and withdrawals, cheque deposit and payment, inward
and outward remittance incoming and outgoing transfer. These sections were filled based on
the customer’s numbers, limit and total amount of transactions. Finally total amount of
maximum transaction of both debit and credit side are summarized and multiplied by 12
indicating the annual turnover. Most important fact of TP is that it updated when there is any
change in the nature of transaction. It can either increase or decrease the past transaction nature
of the customer. The second day of the week, I couldn’t learn anything new and did as my
regular work, such as doing some stapler work, some photocopy works, transfer file from one
desk to another and getting few signatures after authorization.
Observations: I realized that even a very short amount of time at a place can mean so much.
There have many things to learn in a bank. You can learn many things within a very short time,
but you have to work hard.
Notable Incident: The week was nice and stress free for me. My colleagues appreciated
me for helping them in their regular work activity.
