Bank of America

My tip would be to maintain strong connections with mentors/managers/etc. and continuously show interest in the firm’s missions and objectives.

However, these goals are not easily attainable and require much effort to reach them. However, Bank of America is great with accommodati...

It’s a lot of e-mails to make sure everything is right/following procedures. I do not talk to clients directly—only people within the bank or insurance companies. After I have checked everything, I create documents. There are some team meetings, but they’re usually one hour a week. There is very ...

I have a lot of flexibility with my schedule as long as I work 40 hours, but again it depends on your department. If I work less, I’ll just let my manager know. I can work from home but I prefer to work in the office because I need two screens and I can get answers immediately if I need help. Usu...

Your internship is like an extended interview. Be early to the office, in no rush to leave, well rested daily, positive attitude, willing to help on anything.

A personal bankers role is to recognize an inves...

Mainly, good social skills, and second but very important, good analytical skills. Third, but not least, good time management.

Good time management skills, strong computer skills Excel,Microsoft suite ,Leadership skills,problem solving skills,researchingskills,analytical skills and team player skills. sometimes other work places asked for sql training. I didn't had to do that.

The most important skills are being able to identify trends and solve problems. I realize that is a cliche answer and one you have heard from a number of people by now but it is true. Most of the work I do currently has no relation to the technical skills I acquired in school. However, the projec...

In my experience, I had a lot of ownership in the sense that I was the only one working on the project besides checking in with my manager from time to time and getting occasional advice from other developers and business analysts. However, I won't say that I had complete creative ownership. How ...

A Relationship Banker is a lobby host, banker, and assistant to the branch management. You are responsible for assigning appointments...

You have a ipad or tablet with appointments to start the day. You assign appointments first thing in the morning, you walk around the lobby once the branch opens and assist clients with any questions. Tellers call on you to add clients to the que to be seen by a banker if the clients need anythin...

Outbound calling to the existing portfolio, great handle on details, love paperwork and follow through, knowledge of capital markets, external information about the credit rates and money movement environment. If you have never watched CNBC this job is not for you.

Excellent merit driven environment for salary, promotions and all of the like but as the title says RELATIONSHIPS MATTER. This is not for independent self promoters or people who do not like to collaborate.
