Writing a CV For Banking Jobs

Writing a CV The CV is a critical part of successfully applying for banking jobs as its all an employer has to go on when deciding whether or not to invite you to interview. As the people up against you for banking jobs are going to have often very similar skills and experience due to the nature of the industry your CV has to not only be watertight in terms of the information it gets across but also make you stand out from a crowd of other financial experts. Banking is still a formal institution and you resume should reflect this, but some creativity will help to show your character and the effort you’ve put into your application- think about ways of presenting your CV with a unique personal touch, if you’re photogenic a picture of yourself is often a good start (don’t forget to smile!). Again a recruitment agent should be able to help you get your CV up to a standard where they are confident it will be acceptable by the banks and financial institutions whom will be recruiting. There are lots of template CV’s and CV writing advice available online by searching for ‘banking job CV’.
