You see to get to work for any of the three big local banks is a testimony of a candidate's quality. BB banks' staff are of a higher level of quality given its highly selective criteria. Do not be disheartened just keep improving and one day you may be there.

Csb, there are plenty of incompetents in BBs as well. Most important is how good your interview skills are, if can crawl under table to suck kkj is most tokkong.

BBs are the prestigious names like Goldman and JP. They are in a completely different league from the three local banks and are way more selective in their hiring. It is not uncommon to see a BB paying 50-75% more for the same role vs a local bank AND with better wlb.
