Hi Jerry,

I have been working in the banking and finance industry for the last 15 years and I have seen all sorts of people from the police , army , teachers , engineers come and go . Some stay on to be successful while others return to their original industry

To be straight to you , if you can perform , the bank will take you . It does not just mean perform a task but bring in revenue to the bank . So the easiest way for you to enter this sector is to apply for the sales positions . The basic starting pay may range from $2k to $3k excluding bonus . Basically you will be selling loans, credit cards , insurance and other derivative products . Other than this sales positions , the banks are cutting cost and so other areas might not be available unless you have the specific skills. If you are really interested , just go into any of the bank's website and there are plenty of openings . Just a note , if you do not perform , than , you will be asked to move on . You have targets to meet everyday . Hope this helps .
