The first, and maybe most important, thing you must do is make sure your resume is updated. When responding to an employment opportunity you are interested in it is a good idea to do it as quickly as possible. Make sure your resume focuses on what would make you a great candidate for a banking job in the financial service industry.
When you have an updated copy of your resume ready enlist the help of job recruiters and employment agencies. They will want a copy of your resume and they will want to talk to you about your job goals. Some recruiters and agencies charge you for their services or want you to work with them exclusively and others do not. Make sure to have a clear understanding of the policies of your job recruiter or employment agency.
The Internet is a great place to search for employment opportunities. Do searches with terms like ''banking jobs'' or ''financial services jobs''. There are many job boards and employment sites that will have a huge array of different financial services jobs. Make sure to check online daily as these sites are updated very frequently.
A local newspaper in the city that you are interested in working in is a good resource for available banking jobs.
Talk to your friends and family and see if any of them know of any banking job employment opportunities. They may know of something that hasn't even been made available to the public yet. Many people find their jobs through their social networks.
Looking for a new job can seem stressful but it doesn't need to be. People have more resources available to them than ever before. The Internet alone has made it possible to see thousands of job postings in a day. Have fun looking for your new banking job.
