The current CardinalStone graduate-trainee requirements include a bachelor's degree with at least Second-Class Upper honours in a numerical or business-related discipline, completion of NYSC, strong communication and interpersonal skills, proficiency in Microsoft Office, and a demonstrated interest in financial services.

Applicants should verify the current vacancy

Hybridteckblog encourages interested candidates to check CardinalStone's official careers and recruitment pages for the current programme title, eligibility requirements, location and application status before submitting an application.

Because the accessible official recruitment pages currently show both a general 2026 Graduate Trainee Program and an Investment Advisory – Lagos & Abuja listing, applicants should not assume that a programme advertised elsewhere as “2027” has the same requirements or deadline. (CardinalStone)
