The online contest (www.fcmb.com/Flexxtern) is designed for youths between 18 and 30 years. It will run between October 15 and 30, 2021 and offers young Nigerian graduates the opportunity to gain work experience through an internship which could eventually lead to full employment in reputable organisations.
Group Head, Corporate Affairs of FCMB, Mr. Diran Olojo, who disclosed this in a statement released by the bank recently, said, “The #FCMBFlexxtern programme is another platform for Nigerian youths to demonstrate their talent and determination to take leadership positions.

We are excited that the #FCMBFlexxtern initiative has become a catalyst to fast-track the development of a new generation of professionals and leaders.”
