How can i industry sign banking new york job offer

welcome back I hope you well if you're new here then please go ahead and subscribe because I just provide some incredible world-class content not quite but I like to think so anyway today by the title of the video you will see this is gonna be about how to get a job in banking now there are many many different ways to get a job in a bank and some are far easier than others and actually much much of the ways into a bank will depend on how old you are so whether you're at school university or you're already in full-time work this video should help you maybe a little bit maybe a lot I'll leave it up to you it's important to point out that there are so many different jobs that you can get in a bank so when I say how to get a job in a bank or in banking I literally mean any job I won't discriminate against job roles that's not me I'm going to share four different ways that you can get a job in a bank now I understand that there will be so many different ways and so many different routes to take to get a job in a bank but these are the four I identified as probably the most common or probably just the first four that came to mind before I do though I need to be absolutely clear that some jobs in banking are far more difficult to get than others for example if you don't do certain subjects or if you don't have certain necessary qualifications some jobs will be very very difficult or impossible to get just like in law or medicine where you need specific qualifications to do the job the same applies in banking the first route to get a job in a bank is probably the most common and it's it's the route that the banks will create themselves most banks will offer a spring week so the first step is to check out what a spring week is obviously it's in spring but I would advise go on the company website to find out a bit more about when the spring week is exactly and also what you need to do to get on one if you realize that this is something that you're interested in or that you might be good at the next step is to apply for a summer internship which you will do in between is two and years three of University so the summer in between year two and three now the summer internship will last to two months maybe maybe ten weeks in some cases it might last all of summer but that is definitely the next step so you go spring week summer internship and if you do well on the summer internship in your final week you may be given an offer to get onto the banks graduate program if you do well that is so in your final week you may be given an offer and usually you have either a week or two weeks to accept that offer so let's say you get the offer on on the summer internship you accept the graduate program this this is amazing you've done a really really good job here because you go back into your final year of uni and you've already secured yourself a full time job essentially on the graduate program and it means you can focus on your studies at uni so you've done well at uni in your final year you've graduated with a 2:1 or above because that is probably the minimum requirement to get all the graduates key and you're ready to start the grad program and it might be a two-year grant program two and a half years maybe even three years it really depends on the role and the bank that you are you're going to be working for so once you've done those two or three years whatever it may be you then have the opportunity to apply for a standard four I'm a bank and then that's it you're you're fully into banking you've done the spring week the soar internship the grad program and here you are now as a full-time working banking professional Congrats the second way of getting a job in a bank is becoming more and more popular these days and that is by getting on an apprenticeship program so what is an apprenticeship program well there are many different variations of what it can be but largely it gives you the opportunity to do real work that is paid while still getting a qualification which is really beneficial and actually this this suits a lot of people better than going to university and banks will usually have a foundation apprenticeship program and a higher apprenticeship program for the foundation level apprenticeship program all you need are certain GCSEs at a certain grade and you need to be over 16 years old and for the higher apprenticeship program you have to be 18 years old or above and like I said this is probably better for those people who don't think University is something that you really want to do after you've completed the higher apprenticeship program within the bank you'll have a qualification you'll have done paid work so you'll have amazing experience and then you'll be ready to roll off into a full time job at the bank which is great which is the objective so what I will say is for anyone who is aged 15 to 18 years old roughly I would really really consider an apprenticeship program as an alternative to the first route which was going to university and doing a graduate program etc etc so really really good like I said is becoming more and more popular and I actually have friends where I work who did the apprenticeship program at the bank they are now really really successful the third route into a bank is pretty simple actually and that is when you finish school college or university just apply for a job in a bank go on their website or go on LinkedIn find a job and give it a good crack and if you get the job great if not you may need to look at doing something else and getting a bit more experience but it certainly is possible to get a job straight from school Uyuni however what I will say is if you take this route the job that you'll most likely end up getting will be of a lower grade it will be a lower position which means you'll start lower and you'll have to work your way up and like I said at the very start there are certain jobs in banks that you just cannot do if you don't have the right qualifications but you can still get a job in a bank and there are many different jobs that you can go into by starting in a lower position so if you don't want to stay in education you don't want to do an internship and the grad scheme you don't want to do an apprenticeship you just want to start work straight away you want to start getting paid apply for a job now this fourth and final route into banking is something that I know very well because it's actually what I ended up doing so I did go to university I did get myself onto a graduate program however it wasn't in banking or financial services the Graduate scheme that I go on to was in IT technology which is different it's not miles apart but it's different so I ended up finishing that that graduate scheme which was for one year I then rolled off into a full-time job at that organization but at the same time I was thinking to myself is is this what I want to do maybe I want to try something different and I ended up trying something deaf so I did have brows I did go on LinkedIn I applied for a job in a bank I interviewed and I was successful and and what I realized when I joined the bank when I started my role was because I had only done one year at the IT technology company and started my job in the bank after one year I was actually a year or two ahead of my peers of people the same age because I didn't do a two or three year graduate scheme which for me was great because it was almost like a shortcut but what I will say about this route is that it probably is more difficult and there's a lot more risk to it as well because I I didn't do an internship in a bank and I didn't do the graduate program at the bank so it's probably a lot more risky a question that I get asked quite often on my LinkedIn and Instagram which by the way you can find below and please do ask questions if you have any is the subjects that you should take to help you get into banking and the way I usually respond is by saying obviously it helps to do maths a Business Studies degree or economics or something equivalent but ultimately it doesn't really matter I have friends in in the bank I work for and they studied English neuroscience geography all sorts of things all kinds of things what a bank really wants from an individual is somebody who is smart somebody who is proactive somebody who can take initiative so I would say well I would say the subject choice and the degree choice isn't that important but it definitely will help you to understand a bit more about finance the financial services industry and banking so if you know from early age you definitely want to get into banking and finance do maths do economics and business because it will help you and it probably will put you maybe a small step above above others but it's not necessary so don't worry but what I will say is you know if you're doing a history degree or you're studying something that is so far removed from banking and financial services do not worry because banks actually quite like to hire individuals that have done something different and have a different perspective on things so it can be seen as a as a very good thing and as a final message what I will say is whether you're just about to take your GCSEs or a levels or something else or maybe you're 10 15 20 years into full-time work already what you need to do is find out what you think is going to be the best route for you to take and the fastest and easiest route to get into a bank and to get a job in a bank but make sure that it is something that you want to do something that you think you'll enjoy and that you're good at because that is very important so I hope you've enjoyed you can like the video I don't
