JOB PROFILE AND ACTIVITIES PERFORMED

2.1 Activities performed in the organization:

In KBBL intern worked in CSD. As a service oriented company the major


responsibilities were to give better services to the clients promptly on their demand.
Intern was mainly given the responsibility of service related issues under the
supervision of the respective officers. In the period of internship intern helped the

Explained products and services to clients:

14
Financial products comprise a feature of intangibility. Benefits from a product are not
readily apparent, therefore intern was responsible for explaining the types of product,
their attributes and benefits to the public.

Opening an account:

The first thing intern had to know was about the criteria of opening the account of a
new customer. The responsibility of the customer service starts with opening of new
account of the new customer informing them about the facilities available in the
organization. Intern learnt about the documents required to open a new account. By
opening an account bank bridge its customers to avail the facilities provided by the
bank. Bank Accounts can be opened by both an individual(s, in case of Joint A/c) as
well as a corporate firm (institution). Basically a bank account is a unique computer-
generated customer code that allows customers to deposit and withdraw fund. The
Account Opening Procedure is explained as follows:

 At first, on the visit of the customer in the bank, the customer is asked to fill
an account opening form and Signature Card which contains the personal
details of the customers.
 The CSD staff them verifies all the documents, details and signature and feeds
them into the FINACLE along with the specific a/c type, introducer’s name (if
any).
 Then the customer are requested to deposit the minimum balance (or more) of
the concerned deposit type in their a/c and account number is provided later
on.
 CSD staff will create the customer id of account holders and then forward to
operation manager to verify.
 Once the customer id is verified, operation manager again returned it to CSD

Closing an account:

Intern also had the responsibility to close the account of the customers who wants to
close his/her account in the bank following the procedure strictly. The procedure for it
was:

 Need of the written application by the account holder


 Return of the check book and the ATM provided to the customer
 Calculate the required charges according to the type of the account opened
 Return of the rest amount to the respective customer
 Finally it is updated in the system and the form is filed in closed account file.

Provided checks and received checks requisition:

Check requisition forms were received, which are basically endorsed by the customer
by filling up the check demand slip attached with the old checkbook. Intern performed
the task of verifying the signature of the account holder and if authorized providing
the check book to the customer. This process was then followed by the entries into the
check ledger and stitching the bundle of checks and handling or storing the check
book.

17
Provided bank statement:

Intern was assigned with the task of providing bank statements upon request of the
authorized customer. Customer provided the information regarding the account
number and the date of statement required. After verifying the authenticity, the
statement was printed and handed to the customer.

Handled complaints:

Sometimes intern had to face customer rage relating certain issues. Managing the
small problems by providing necessary information and in case of higher
complication, escorting the customer to the specific department manager was done by
the intern.

Filled forms and vouchers:

Intern also filled different forms and vouchers as requested by the customers. It
included account opening forms, cash deposit vouchers etc.

Answered customer queries:

Queries of customers about their balance and other information related to bank was

department. Records for different things were done in the CSD. For example, account

Issuance of check book ATM:

mentioned along with the signature of the customer in the register. Before printing the

number, number of leaves to be printed and signature of the a/c holder. Signature of
the holder is verified on the requisition. In case of holder’s inability to collect check
book than he can give authority to the third person to collect the check book on his

18
behalf only by signing on the requisition but it is not same in the case of ATM. The
a/c holder must be present to collect it. The check book and ATM are registered in the
long book or register mentioning all the essential information along with the stamp
and signature of the authorized person.

Other activities performed:


 Handling the phone calls
 Answering to the customers queries
 Calling customer to inform about ATMs, e-banking and FD matured.
 Photocopy
 Scanning
 Printing

2.2 Problems Solved:


The internship period intern did was short which was not enough for learning
everything we need to. Though it was short but intern tried her best to take the
optimum advantage of this period to know the things to its surface in every
department. The staffs were not able to guide sometimes as they used to get busy with
their work and at those times intern could not get the answers of her queries that
intern had. Being the part of bank as intern, intern cannot open up everything she
knows about the bank due to the oath of secrecy and confidentiality. Intern was given
the chance to work in CSD of the bank. Intern tried to solve the basic problems of the
customers and others as well when other staffs were busy:
 Addressing the customer’s queries.
 Giving details of the available services to the customer’s for their flexibility.
 Filling up the account opening forms, vouchers or forms for remittance.
 Solving problems related to ATM or PIN and signature in check requisition.
 Handling the problems faced by customers.
 Whenever the customers come up with their problem in CSD, intern is
unaware about the right and accurate information on the subject matter. So
intern has to consult with their senior staff to give the information to
customers.

19
 Sometimes intern may give wrong information to the client due to lack of
knowledge of that department in the beginning. At that time, staff immediately
correct our mistake and give the right information.
 Customers argue for updating Know Your Customer (KYC) from especially to
show original citizenship.
 Though the instruction and required documents are clearly explained in the
account opening form, even then customers ask those for time to time and
reasons for extra documents that are already stated in back side of the form.
So, it is tough to give them each guideline on filling different types of form as
well.

2.2 Intern’s key observation:


Kailash Bikas bank is operating in the society to make the people easily access to the
banking world. It has widened the area of its operation by opening the branches
aiming to reach every people in the country. The investments made by banks are also
in safe hands and the profit has been increasing year by year. It was a great experience
to be a part of KBBL and work as an intern. The seniors of the institution were very
helpful and were always ready to impart their knowledge and solve the queries at their
easy time. The major thing that the customers appreciate is about familiar
environment.
The things that intern was able to observe in this bank are as mentioned below:
 Laborious, helpful and cooperative members.
 Most of the customers are satisfied with the services provided.
 Good return to the shareholders.
 On time disbursement of loans.
 Involved in social activities as well.
 Quick remittance from any remit.
 Flow of opening saving account is higher than the current and fixed account.
 Most people close their account due to their own problems rather than other
reasons.
 The Bank gives equal value to every customer
 Mainly three types of account are hold by the people they are current, saving
and fixed deposits.

Chapter III

Lessons Learnt and Feedback

3.1 Key skills and attitudes learnt:

The internship period was very fruitful which showed the face of real life job
experience. I felt it to be quite effective to enter in the world of banking institutions.
The internship period has taught her how we can implement the theoretical knowledge
in practical life. Intern too felt on- the-job training that we faced more profitable and
practical rather than off-the-job training only which is monotonous and forgetful. We
learnt interpersonal skill, communicational skill and technical skill that helped her to
build knowledge in a broad way. The interpersonal skills helped us to interact with the
various types of customers and their various problems. The negotiation skills also got
increased developing the softness and being more formal while communicating with
the people or clients. The positive attitude also got developed while dealing with
different nature of customers. We also learnt the technical skills to operate computer
