Bank of Guiyang (formerly Guiyang City Commercial Bank) was one of the partner banks which received IPC’s assistance in the framework of the China Development Bank’s China Microfinance Project (CMFP). Our support for the bank focused on building an MSE lending department which operated on the basis of a cashflow-based MSE-lending technology. Approximately one year after obtaining technical assistance under the CMFP, the bank contracted IPC to implement two four-day assignments  to assist with the recruitment of MSE lending officers and cashiers. 

For both target groups, IPC developed a recruitment methodology comprising a three-step recruitment process. We then assisted the bank in the organisation and conduct of each step, and we provided qualified assessments on each candidate.
